"Bree’s class is far from your 'usual' Pilates session, the intensity is spot-on and I always leave feeling like I’ve pushed my limits. It’s rare to find a class that combines such great alignment cues with a workout that actually makes you sweat!"

THE DIFFERENCE

What makes Arma Reformer different?

This is not your typical soft Pilates. This is Pilates with purpose. Take everything you think you know about Pilates and turn it up a level.

• More athletic and strength focused
• Structured and progressive
• Motivating and engaging
• Music integrated
• Delivered through a system - not individual interpretation

Every 45-minute session follows a deliberate performance arc. Members are taken through a safe, intentional journey that builds:
• Core strength
• Total-body strength
• Stability and control
• Flexibility
• Muscular endurance
• Confidence

The experience is distinctive from most Reformer studios, driven by intelligent music programming and coached in the unmistakable Arma style.
Members leave strong, challenged and uplifted.

THE DIFFERENCE FOR MEMBERS

Why it works for members

Arma Reformer delivers a clearly distinctive Pilates experience that feels athletic, structured and motivating.

Each class follows a carefully designed journey, guided by intelligent music programming and coached in the unmistakable Arma style. The result is a class that feels immersive, consistent and engaging.

Members benefit from:
• An immersive, music-driven class atmosphere
• Coaching that feels confident and consistent
• Clear progression across seasons
• Total-body strength and control
• Low-impact training that is kind on the joints

Accessible for beginners, yet challenging for experienced members.

THE DIFFERENCE FOR BUSINESS

Why it works for your business

Most Reformer models rely on:
• Hiring already certified instructors demanding high wages due to expensive qualifications
• Individually created programming
• Personality-driven delivery

This approach fails when someone leaves, you need scale across multiple sites, or you try to onboard new staff quickly. 

Long-term Reformer success requires a strong system you control.

Designed for return on space Arma Reformer helps you:
• Increase ROI from existing studio space
• Deliver consistent premium programming
• Reduce instructor dependency
• Remove programming headaches
• Offer scalable, repeatable experiences

Arma Reformer gives you a differentiated Reformer offering, controlled by you.

Frequently asked questions

Do instructors need Pilates certification?

No. Arma has developed a training system that provides the foundations of a typical Reformer Pilates certification, with the additional layers of connection, movement and music. The training is recognised by Pilates Aotearoa, providing instructors with CPD points.
Arma provides rapid coach training that gets instructors certified and confident in weeks, not months.

Will existing Reformer Pilates instructors need to do the training?

Qualified Reformer Pilates instructors may not be required to do the full Arma in-person training - which will fast-track and reduce the cost of our training.
All Arma instructors must pass our coach assessments to coach the Arma workouts. Arma Reformer has added layers of participant experience and music that is required.

How quickly can we launch?

Most studios launch within 4-6 weeks. Coaches get trained. The app gets set up. Programming loads. You're ready to deliver premium classes with confidence.

What equipment is required?

Standard Reformer equipment + some hand weights. Arma works with the machines you already have. No special gear needed. The system is designed for existing studio setups.

How often are workouts updated?

Every day is a different workout. Programming refreshes regularly and keeps members engaged and challenged. Our Reformer Pilates workouts are based on 12 week seasonal training blocks, each 4 weeks long and designed to help progress and keep engaged.
