MJF Group Classes
All of our classes, whether on mat or reformer, are designed to bring you and your body into conversation with one another. We move for function and ease.
Reformer Pilates
The reformer is not nearly as scary as it looks. The moving carriage works with spring tension to add resistance that can both support and challenge your body in movement. It's low impact and an incredible tool for building strength and improving mobility in a gentle way.

This class puts the emphasis on control, precision, and focus. Spend time tuning into the specificity and nuance of each movement. Satisfying for your inner nerd. Vibe is deep focus, background music, working smarter not harder.
