Reformer Pilates at Park Pilates

Welcome to Park Pilates

The Dedicated Reformer Pilates Studio in Dublin 15

Welcome to Reformer Pilates at the Park Pilates studio in Blanchardstown, Dublin 15. Reformer Pilates is a challenging, low impact, total body workout that focuses on strengthening the core and elongating musculature.  The Pilates Reformer is a resistance based machine that uses springs to strengthen and stretch, allowing the body to develop into a long, strong, lean form. After a Reformer Pilates session you will feel stronger, taller, flexible, balanced, and more aware of your body. You’ll feel the difference from the first session. Since we first opened in Castleknock in 2015, we have offer Reformer Pilates classes for all levels of experience and fitness from our Introduction class for complete beginners right through to our Advanced classes. Please contact Mary on 087 286 8617 for more information on class times and prices or to book an introductory session.

Benefits of Reformer Pilates

Benefits of Reformer Pilates

Increased Muscular Endurance

Muscles exert force to overcome resistance. Training results include increased muscle fibre endurance, size and strength along with increased connective tissue strength. With increased muscular endurance, your muscles are able to exert force for extended periods. Increased endurance enables you to perform everyday tasks without fatigue. Additional benefits include improved muscle tone as muscles are lengthened and strengthened without appearing bulky.

Increased Core Strength

Exercising on the Pilates Reformer requires proper form and technique. The focus of proper positioning is within the core, your abdomen and lower back muscles. By conditioning the core muscles, they will contract with all movements to stabilize and align your spine. A strong core will increase the effectiveness of all exercises due to your ability to maintain proper alignment. Core strength increases your ability to generate power to your muscles and decreases the risk of injury.

Improved Posture

Workouts on a Pilates Reformer will improve your spinal alignment. With improved alignment, your muscles will strengthen to improve spinal support and stability. Muscular imbalances will be corrected, decreasing the risk for injury, especially to the lower back. Awareness of proper posture during exercise will carry over to awareness of proper posture when performing everyday movements.

Improved Breathing

Pilates workouts emphasize proper breathing. Breathing becomes deeper and less frequent, resulting in improved relaxation. Benefits include increased lung capacity and breathing efficiency during workouts and at rest. Your lungs are better equipped to supply your body with increased oxygen during workouts. Energy levels increase during exercise and at rest.

Reduced Body Fat

Exercise increases your metabolism, your body’s ability to burn calories. Increased muscle mass increases the number of calories burned. When the amount of calories burned is more than the amount of calories eaten, excess body fat is burned and used for energy to meet the increased demand.

Is Reformer Pilates For Me?

Is Reformer Pilates For Me?

Just about everyone can benefit from Reformer Pilates. It is ageless and genderless. The fit, the unfit, the overweight, the underweight, the athlete, the office worker, the injured, the strong, the flexible and inflexible, the expectant mother, the young, and the not so young.There is a style or modification available for all levels, almost all injuries and most health issues.

Runners and Athletes:

It is imperative that runners have strong quad and hip abductor muscles to support knees, hips and ankles. Proper alignment will help you run farther and faster. Stretching will keep you injury free. Regular Pilates classes will increase your range of motion and your endurance.

Office workers:

Sitting, looking down at a computer screen for hours has a detrimental effect on your neck, spine and posture. The combination of stretching and strengthening on the reformer leaves you feeling tall, strong and energised.

Recovery / Injury prevention

Most injuries are caused by muscle imbalances. Everybody has them. Even musculature is promoted through regular Pilates.

Reformer Pilates is great for rehab purposes as it allows the client to exercise in a horizontal plane of motion and not be vertically loaded and weight bearing through their legs. For example if a client has had knee surgery or a knee injury, this horizontal plane enables you to strengthen the muscles of the leg through a larger range of motion using a lighter resistance than their body weight, speeding up their recovery through controlled movement.
