At Peak Reformer Studio we want to set you up for success from the very first session. That’s why we offer our unique Intro sessions – an extended 1 hour 15 minute class designed to familiarise you with the reformer and teach you the basics at a slower, more supportive pace.

Only one Intro session is required before you can join any Basics or All Levels class.

(Note: Intro sessions are for Reformer Pilates only. Mat-based classes do not require an Intro.)

You’re welcome to jump straight into a class that matches your level. Some clients still prefer to start with our in-depth Intro session if they haven’t practised much elsewhere, but most feel comfortable starting in a Basics or All Levels class. If you’re unsure, try one of those classes first and speak to your instructor afterwards for personalised advice.

Pilates truly is for everyone. We have clients aged 18–76 with a wide range of fitness levels. You don’t need to be flexible (or super fit) to begin – we’ll meet you exactly where you are.

Our ethos is to deliver high-quality, effective Reformer Pilates in an inclusive, kind, supportive and calm environment. Community is at the heart of our studios .There’s nothing to be nervous about. Your instructor will guide and support you every step of the way.

The easiest way is via the Glofox app (not the Pro version – that’s for studio staff). Search for “Peak Reformer Studio”, create your account, complete the waiver when prompted, then go to the Buy Credits tab and purchase your New Client Pass to unlock booking.

You can also book via our website in exactly the same way – your login works for both the app and the website.

As a new client, start with the New Client Pass (found under Buy Credits). This gives you two classes at a reduced rate. If you’re new to Reformer Pilates, make sure your first booking is an Intro session. After that you can choose the pack or membership that best suits you.

A valid credit is required for every booking. Simply purchase a credit pack and you’ll be able to book straight away.

Yes – your credits can be used at either our New Mills or Bollington studios.

Grippy socks are required for all sessions (available to buy in studio for £18). We provide a water dispenser and glasses, though you’re welcome to bring your own bottle. Just wear comfortable, non-restrictive clothing – that’s all you need!

Reformer Pilates has strong roots in rehabilitation particularly the method that Peak Reformer Studio was built from – the original method was developed for injured soldiers and has since been refined into the modern practice we teach today. All exercises can be modified its a safe effective way to work with/on and around any injuries.

Simply let your instructor know about any injuries when they ask at the start of class. New clients attending an Intro session will also have their waiver reviewed and be screened for suitability.

If you’re unsure, email us at enquiries@peakreformerstudio.co.uk with details of your injury and we’ll advise you.

Absolutely. We’ve supported many existing clients through up to three pregnancies! Our team is trained to modify exercises for your trimester and comfort, so discreetly that other clients won’t notice. We have pregnancy wedges in studio, and our small class sizes mean you’ll get all the individual support you need.

If you’re completely new to Reformer Pilates, please contact us first so we can discuss suitability based on your trimester, current fitness levels, and any complications.

We ask all clients to complete a Mummy MOT (we can recommend excellent local providers) before returning to class – at least 8 weeks after a natural birth or 12 weeks after a C-section.
