Small equipment. Big challenge.

Chair is a dynamic, full-body workout that uses the Pilates Chair to challenge your strength, balance, coordination and control.

The Chair gives you a different relationship with resistance and gravity than the Reformer, creating opportunities to work in standing, seated and supported positions. Expect focused movement, plenty of variety and a workout that can be surprisingly challenging.

With just six students in each class, you’ll get plenty of individual attention while still enjoying the energy of a group.

What to Expect

Strength from every angle
The Chair challenges your body in ways that complement your Reformer and Mat practice. Expect plenty of work for your legs, core, arms and whole-body stability.

Balance and coordination
The Chair asks you to organise your body while managing resistance, gravity and changing positions. You’ll develop strength and control that carries over into everyday movement.

Dynamic movement
Expect a varied class that moves between seated, standing and supported exercises, with opportunities to explore movement in different directions and planes.

A challenge that meets you where you are
Your teacher will offer options throughout class so you can adjust the challenge to suit your experience, strength and confidence.

Why Mo.Co.?

At Mo.Co., we use Pilates as a way to understand and improve how you move, not simply as a series of exercises to perform.

Our teachers bring a deep understanding of movement, anatomy and the Pilates method to every class. They’ll help you understand the purpose behind the exercises, while giving you the space to explore what your body can do.

The result is a practice that builds strength and skill, rather than simply chasing a harder workout.

Find your level.

Open
Our Chair classes are designed for students with some Pilates experience. Your teacher will offer options throughout the class so you can work at the level that’s right for you.

Frequently
Asked
Questions

Do I need to have done Pilates before?

No, you don’t need previous Pilates experience to join a Chair class. If you’re completely new to Pilates, though, we recommend starting with a Foundations Reformer or Mat class first. You’ll learn the fundamentals and build confidence before exploring the Chair.

Is Chair harder than Reformer?



Not necessarily, they’re simply different. The Chair can feel particularly challenging because it asks you to manage resistance, gravity, balance and coordination in different ways. Your teacher will offer options to adjust the challenge.

Can I join if I have an injury?

Please let your teacher know about any injuries or limitations before class. They’ll help you understand what modifications may be appropriate. If you need more individual guidance, a Solo session may be a better place to start.

What should I wear?

Wear comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely. You can work barefoot or in grippy socks.
