Questions people often ask
Am I too old to start Reformer Pilates?
No. Reformer Pilates can be a strong option over 50 when the level is right, the coaching is clear and the exercises are progressed sensibly.
Do I need to be flexible first?
No. The point is to build strength, control and confidence from your current starting point.
What if I am nervous about the equipment?
That is common. A beginner route should explain the carriage, straps, springs and setup before asking you to do anything more challenging.
