I am thoroughly enjoying Reformer Pilates classes offered at the Savvy. The sessions have been a very effective form of strength training for me, while also allowing me to improve my flexibility and posture. I have been blown away by the versatility of the machines. The variety of movements and exercises is endless, enabling the instructor to plan a total body workout in an interesting and engaging manner. All instructors have been informative and encouraging to all participants, no matter their age, fitness level or body type. I would highly recommend Reformer Pilates at Savvy to anyone interested in improving their physical and mental well being.

We take a clinical approach to adjust muscle imbalances and get you familiar with muscles you may not have ever felt before.

Program objectives:

This is not like any other Cycle class I’ve been to! The intensity I’ve been able to hit in this class is beyond what I thought I was capable of and it has a lot to do with the performance metrics which gives you feedback on what you should be doing, when. This holds me accountable to work harder and it has certainly paid off! My resting heart rate has dropped significantly. Since starting regular Cycle classes, I’ve lost weight and its low impact so it’s easy on the old knees which means I can keep doing it often!

SAVVY’s strength program has become my weekly go-to for that whole body strength-focused session and has been an absolute game-changer for me. What sets ‘Strength’ apart for me is its comprehensive approach to developing both muscular strength and lean muscle development. I enjoy how it incorporates the use of barbells, suspension straps, dumbbells, kettlebells, and specialty equipment. This keeps each session dynamic and ensures that I’m challenged in new and exciting ways every time I step into the class.

My favourite class at the moment is Lift. I have found it really important to incorporate weight training into my exercise, and lift is a great class for this.
