Choosing the right Reformer for your studio is about more than finding equipment that looks good in the space. It needs to complement your studio model, work within your floor plan, support your programming and create the experience you want your clients to have.
At Your Reformer, our three commercial Reformer models, The Studio, The Studio X and The Envy, are designed to give operators different options depending on their space, aesthetic, programming and business needs. So, which one is right for your studio?
Start with your studio
Before choosing a model, think about how your space will operate. Are you opening a dedicated Reformer Pilates studio? Adding Pilates to an existing gym or wellness facility? Working with a compact floor plan? Or looking for equipment that gives you flexibility to expand your offering over time?
These considerations can help narrow down which Reformer is the right fit.
You’ll also want to think about:
- The size and layout of your space
- How many Reformers you plan to install
- Your class model and programming
- Your overall studio aesthetic
- Storage requirements
- Whether the space will be used exclusively for Pilates
- The additional equipment you may want to introduce
- How you see your business evolving over time
The Studio: Designed for the dedicated Pilates studio
The Studio Reformer is designed around the traditional studio environment, combining a premium aesthetic with the functionality needed for a busy commercial Pilates space.
Its timber construction brings a warm, elevated feel to the studio, while the wider, padded carriage and 32 cm ground height are designed with the client experience in mind.
The Studio is a versatile choice for operators building a dedicated Reformer Pilates environment where the equipment is a central part of the studio experience.
The Studio could be right for you if:
- You’re opening a dedicated Reformer Pilates studio
- You’re looking for a premium, timeless aesthetic
- Client comfort is a key consideration
- Your Reformers will be in regular use throughout the day
- You want flexibility to expand your programming
The Studio X: Designed for flexibility
The Studio X brings a different approach to commercial Reformer Pilates, with functionality designed to give operators greater flexibility within their space.
Its upright storage capability makes it particularly useful for studios and facilities where the floor plan needs to adapt between sessions or different activities.
The Studio X can work particularly well beyond the traditional dedicated Pilates studio, making it a consideration for gyms, health clubs, wellness spaces and multi-purpose facilities.
The Studio X could be right for you if:
- You need greater flexibility within your floor plan
- Upright storage is important to your studio
- Your space has multiple uses
- You’re introducing Reformer Pilates into an existing facility
- You want to diversify your programming
The Envy: Designed for spaces where flexibility and design go hand in hand
The Envy takes a more design-led approach to commercial Reformer Pilates, combining its distinctive curved profile with a plush finish and practical stacking functionality.
For operators working with compact or multi-purpose spaces, the ability to store The Envy upright can help create greater flexibility outside of class times.
It can also be a strong fit for hospitality, wellness and other environments where the Reformer needs to feel like a natural part of the wider interior design.
The Envy could be right for you if:
- You’re working with a compact or multi-purpose space
- You want a distinctive, design-led aesthetic
- You need the flexibility to store Reformers upright
- Your space needs to transition between different uses
- You’re creating a premium wellness or hospitality environment
- You want your equipment to complement a more curated interior

What should you choose?
There’s no single Reformer model that suits every studio. Instead, the right choice comes down to how you want your space to look, operate and grow.
The Studio is designed for dedicated Pilates environments where a premium, considered studio experience is the priority. The Studio X offers greater flexibility for spaces that need adaptable equipment and the ability to diversify programming. The Envy combines a distinctive, design-led aesthetic with stacking functionality for spaces where flexibility and visual impact are both important.
