Gentle on Your Joints, Strong for Life: 5 Reasons to Start Pilates Reformer Classes Now!
Are you looking for a workout that’s both challenging and gentle on your joints? Whether you're new to Pilates or a seasoned pro, Pilates reformer classes offer the perfect balance of strength and flexibility, all while being low-impact and easy on the body. These classes provide a personalized approach to fitness, ensuring that you build strength and stretch deeply without stressing your joints.
Since Pilates first gained popularity in the ‘90s, its growth has been remarkable. Back then, it was difficult to find studios, and most offered private lessons or individualized routines. Fast forward to today, and reformer Pilates has become mainstream, with classes popping up everywhere—from boutique studios to large gyms, and even in medical settings. Pilates is now more accessible than ever, and group reformer classes are a great way to experience its benefits in a supportive, community environment.

Garrison’s Inspiring Journey with Scoliosis and Pilates
Before I started working with Sonia at Body Evolutions I was experiencing a lot of back pain and discomfort from my scoliosis and I really noticed it when I would wake up in the morning and when I drove to work for a lot of hours during my daily commute to and from work. I needed professional help, not found in traditional healthcare, and Body Evolutions came highly recommended. Pilates addressed my specific needs, unlike other services. It gives me fast results and a great post-workout feel.
