Collection: Aluminum Pilates Reformers

The reformer consists of a rectangular frame that supports a platform called the carriage. This carriage rolls backward and forwards on wheels. Springs, attached to the carriage provide additional resistance and anchor it to the reformer.

It was invented by Joseph Pilates, the man who pioneered the Pilates method, in his original Pilates studio back in the 1920s.

The benefits of regularly using a Pilates reformer are big.

It improves flexibility, balance, posture, coordination, body alignment and helps strengthen your back, core, thighs, and glutes. Every reformer exercise targets a unique sector of your body and can be used to rehabilitate and heal injuries.

However, something that is not a benefit- creating long, lean muscles. Contrary to popular myths that have been around since Pilates took off, you cannot lengthen your muscles using exercise.

If you searching for all the benefits of a reformer with a slightly reduced price to what’s on show here, feel free to browse our wide Pilates machine collection for options that may fit better into your budget.

The benefits of an aluminum reformer over say, a wood one, are primarily aesthetic though they are typically lighter, more durable, and less of a fire hazard.

A reformer made of aluminum has a more sleek, streamlined, contemporary look than the wooden reformer which is heavily associated with classic Pilates. Meaning it can look more at home reformer in studio environments where professionalism is key.

Note that none of these benefits changes your exercise range. You can still exercise on the aluminum and wooden reformer in the same way.

If you find that material, therefore, doesn't matter that much to you, we recommend you visit our complete reformer sale to get the full experience of all our products.

Cleaning your Pilates equipment is hugely important for the look of your studio, the feel of each exercise, and the safety of your clients. It’s best to clean down your Pilates Aluminium reformer with a microfiber cloth, using these solutions in spray form.

Plain tap water is perfect for 90% of the cleaning you must do and works for both wood and aluminum. Wipe down the aluminum reformer frames, roll-down bars, and push-through bars. Sweat and oil from your skin will build up if you do not forget to at least once a week wipes the equipment down. We suggest you add a minute amount of dish soap if you need extra scrubbing power.

Important to remember- you may read some info on cleaning your reformer that mentions using silicone spray. Under no circumstances use silicone spray on your reformer's rails and wheels, as it will cause issues with the functioning of the equipment.
