In this article, we will share information about our new Pilates program, Pilates Body Makeover. We will discuss what the sessions entail, the benefits, who can attend, and how you can reserve your spot in the program.
What is Pilates Body Makeover?
Pilates Body Makeover is a new six-week program offered at the Paseo Club. The class is taught twice per week on the Pilates reformer machines. It is a small group training class, so it is available to a limited number of members.
What is reformer Pilates?
A reformer is an apparatus or machine designed by the founder of Pilates, Joseph Pilates. The machine looks like a narrow bed and has an undercarriage of adjustable pulleys and springs to make the exercises more easy or challenging.
Reformer Pilates is similar to mat-based Pilates, but reformer Pilates is generally more intense and more dynamic. The springs in the reformer create added resistance to the Pilates exercises.
Pilates Body Makeover focuses on strengthening the core areas of the body. Your core includes:
- Hips
- Waist
- Pelvis
- Abdomen
- Lower back
When your core is strong, you are more fit and less prone to injury in your workouts and day-to-day activities.
What are the benefits of attending Pilates Body Makeover?
Pilates Body Makeover provides many benefits.
- Full-body training
- Improved posture
- A leaner midsection
- Increased muscle tone
- Enhanced mobility and flexibility
- Significantly improves chronic low back pain
- Great for cross-training with your favorite sport
- Increases good cholesterol and lowers insulin levels
What are the benefits of small group training?
Small group training has been gaining popularity because it’s an affordable way for clients to take advantage of a trainer’s expertise at a lower financial investment — while keeping the fun and competitiveness of a group dynamic.
How does nutrition play a role in Pilates Body Makeover?
Nutrition is integral to feeling and looking your best. But eating healthy is not as complicated as it may seem. Eating clean is the best philosophy. That means sticking with foods that are minimally processed and full of nutrients.
At the end of each class, a Q&A period will be held, allowing members to ask more personalized questions regarding their health, and lifestyle, and address any concerns.
Who can attend Pilates Body Makeover?
The program is for all levels, even beginners.
Can PBM be scaled or modified for people with limitations or injuries?

Modifications can be provided to anyone.
