Mui Wo Reformer Pilates
Offering small group classes with a maximum of 3 participants per class in Wang Tong, Mui Wo.
Passionate about providing detail orientated classes led by the classical Pilates foundation rather than instagram trends.
Using contemporary reformers we will add elements to classes which will challenge you in new ways every time, however my main focus is building consistency in my clients, repeating certain key sequneces from the classcial order which I believe makes all the difference in a practice that will have long lasting effects on your body rather than a quick sweat fix.
Mui Wo Home Studio Pilates
Located at a private location in Mui Wo with a 5 minute stroll to the beach.
​
I offer a limited amount of private and semi private classes using a variety or equipment including Classical and Contemporary reformers, Wunda Chair, High Chair, Towers, Ladder Barrel and other Barrels. Focusing on your specific needs each time.
Classical vs Contemporary
Classical System and Apparatus
Created by Joseph Pilates in 1920's, the apparatus consists of a variety of apparatus which all work together to ensure you benefit from the system's full potential. It is as close to the original design as intended by J.Pilates.
​
The reformer consists of 4 equal springs which are somewhat heavier and demanding than contemporary equipment.
We follow a precise order of exercises on the Reformer and Mat depending on your level, and then use other pieces of apparatus which will benefit you most.
You will repeat the Reformer and Mat sequence multiple times before moving onto higher levels. This will ensure you progress safely and build muscle memory and strength required for the work ahead.
Contemporary Equipment
The main difference are the springs, there are 5 and they are colour coordinated reflecting their strength. The various tensions allow us to have more freedom in terms of what exercises can be introduced when, and even throw in some more functional strength training in there, although I try to stay away from the Instagram fitness fads and stick to teaching Pilates.
The Reformer bed is also wider which gives it a different feel all together. The bed is cleverly converted into a mat, allowing us to do mat work on the same machine.
The Tower is essentially the Cadillac without the bed frame. Consisting of Rolling Back Bar, Push Through Bar, Leg and Arm Springs. Adding more variety to your session and also fully benefiting from the Pilates System.
