Want to get back into exercise gently? The Pilate Reformer from Episod, while offering an intense workout, is a great option, and we'll tell you why. Based on the pilate method, which aims to strengthen deep muscles, improve posture, flexibility and breathing, the Pilate Reformer is a variation of this, using a specific machine called a reformer.
What exactly is a Pilate Reformer session at Episod? Organized as a group class, pilate reformer sessions last 50 minutes, accompanied by a sports coach and rhythmic music. The session will take place on the reformer machine, which will help you strengthen your muscles in depth.
After a short warm-up, the coach teaches you how to use the reformer machine and its accessories, then demonstrates each movement as you go along. Working with the reformer requires concentration and balance, which comes with time, as the machine can seem complicated at first. During the Pilate Reformer session at Episod, you'll build deep muscle in your thighs, buttocks and abs, as well as in your arms and shoulders, thanks to slow, hard-working movements.
If you don't like to overdo your cardio, the Pilate Reformer from Episod is for you! Don't be fooled into thinking that the sessions are any easier, though, because less cardio won't stop you burning calories and sweating.
A Pilate Reformer class at Episod costs 39 euros. The rather high price is explained by the quality of the gym, in terms of its infrastructure, the services it offers and the quality of the coaching. The reformer costs more than other sports sessions at Episod, notably because of the quality reformer machines offered at Episod. Not all Episod gyms offer the Pilate Reformer, so if you'd like to try it out, go to the Pigalle, Levallois and République studios.
