Pilates Mat vs. Reformer

Mat:

• You use your own body for resistance
• Your core muscles work more efficiently to hold certain positions
• Props may be used as well to enhance the exercise

Reformer:

• Uses springs, pulleys, bars and straps to perform exercises
• Can be an ideal alternative if you require frequent modifications on the mat
•  Easier to increase resistance creating a more challenging workout for the advanced Pilates client
