Mat vs Reformer: What’s the Difference? 💪

Pilates is a versatile method, and whether you practice on the mat or the Reformer, both offer amazing benefits for your body.

Mat: Use your own body weight to build core strength, stability, and control. It challenges you to engage your muscles deeply while improving posture and coordination.

Reformer: Uses springs for resistance, helping you move deeper, strengthen the whole body, and safely explore a greater range of motion. It’s perfect for adding intensity and precision to your practice.

Both options strengthen your core, improve alignment, and help you move with confidence. The choice depends on your goals and what you want to focus on but either way, you’re training smarter and stronger.

Our scar tissue work gently softens these layers, helping your body restore smoother movement, better alignment, and a sense of ease you may not have felt in years. It’s a simple step that can make a big difference in how your whole body functions.

💪 Let’s Talk About the Hamstrings

Your hamstrings are a powerful group of three muscles at the back of your thighs and they play a key role in movement, posture, and stability.

🔹 Medial Group:
Semitendinosus and Semimembranosus these muscles cross the knee and attach to the tibia.
🔹 Lateral Group:
Biceps Femoris this muscle also crosses the knee and attaches to the fibula. It has two parts:

• The long head, which starts at the ischial tuberosity (like the others), and
• The short head, which begins at the femur.
Together, these muscles work to bend the knee, extend the hip, and support the pelvis essential functions for walking, running, and maintaining balance.

💪 Is Shoulder Tightness Limiting Your Movement?

A tight posterior capsule in the shoulder can cause discomfort, stiffness, and even mechanical impingement when the upper arm bone moves too far forward and reduces space in the shoulder joint. This often leads to pain when lifting, reaching, or rotating your arm.

Through Pilates, we address this by improving shoulder mobility, posture, and muscle balance.

Targeted exercises help lengthen tight structures, activate stabilizing muscles, and teach your body to move with better control, restoring space and freedom in your shoulder.

✨ Move with precision.
✨ Strengthen your support muscles.
✨ Regain comfort and confidence in every reach.

If shoulder tightness has been holding you back, it’s time to experience how Pilates can help.

📅 Book your session today and restore smooth, pain-free movement.
