Genesis Health and Fitness commences national roll out of Reformer Pilates classes

With COVID having impacted people’s approach to health and fitness, and with wellness now a priority for many - Genesis Health and Fitness has commenced a national rollout of Reformer Pilates classes.

Commencing with two Genesis Health and Fitness in Queensland - Windsor and Thuringowa - are the first gyms in the Australian chain to launch Reformer Pilates, offered in a boutique studio environment at a fraction of the usual cost for these types of classes.

According to a survey by national gym chain Genesis Health and Fitness, 54% of Australians have changed their approach to fitness and health this year as a result of the pandemic, with 64% focused more on wellness and how exercise makes them feel.

Genesis Health and Fitness National Reformer Pilates Program Manager, Beth Feigl advised that with only 12 to 16 Reformer Pilates machines in a Genesis studio, the small classes will cater to all ages and fitness levels, including pre and post-natal members.

Feigl notes “COVD-19 and lockdowns have really altered people’s thinking around fitness and health. Reformer Pilates is a low-impact, dynamic style of training that’s suitable for everybody and guaranteed to leave you feeling empowered and energised - that’s why we’ve chosen to make this class more available to people as we roll it out across Queensland and then across Australia.

“We’re using premium equipment and accessories that aren’t offered at other gyms - including platform extenders to ensure our Reformers are easy to use for all experience levels. Every class will be run by a qualified instructor, unlike some other gyms that are using video-based instruction.”

The Reformers are being supplied by Novofit.

Reformer Pilates will next launch at the first Victorian site (Box Hill) and then continue to rollout nationally in 2022, with Western Australia clubs launching Q3 and NSW and additional Victoria clubs in the second half of the year.
