What the classes focus on
The studio's classes are built around the IM=X method of Pilates on the reformer. Most are labeled all levels, and a good share of the week is strong, core focused work. Some sessions move into cardio reformer or xercizer, and a smaller number are marked for those with more experience, such as the Advanced Reformer class.
The classes are short and focused, with the typical session running 50 minutes. Few are described as sweat-heavy, so the emphasis is on controlled, precise movement rather than intensity.
How the week runs
The studio's days start early. Classes begin at 6am and run through the evening, with the latest starts at 6pm. More than half the classes are in the morning, and about a fifth begin before 9am. Midday sessions are few, and weekends make up only about one in ten classes.
Tuesday, Thursday and Friday carry the most classes, and the busiest start times are 9:30am, 10:30am, 5pm and 6pm. Passes are not part of the picture here, so each booking stands on its own.
