At Forum, we’ve seen a growing trend that we love: more and more men in Edmonton are stepping onto the Reformer—and they’re not just trying it, they’re sticking with it.

For a long time, Pilates was seen as a “women’s workout,” but that outdated reputation is shifting fast. Athletes, tradesmen, weekend warriors, and desk workers alike are discovering what Reformer Pilates really is: a powerful, precision-based workout that challenges the body, builds strength, and enhances mobility like no other.

Staying active during pregnancy can have a lasting positive impact on both your physical and mental well-being. But as your body changes, it’s important to choose movement that supports those changes safely. At Forum, our Reformer Pilates classes offer a gentle yet effective way for expecting mothers in Edmonton to stay strong, mobile, and centred throughout their pregnancy.

Reformer Pilates focuses on controlled movement, breath, alignment, and deep core strength—all essential components for a healthy and supported pregnancy journey.

When we think about exercise, we often focus on physical results—strength, flexibility, posture. But at Forum Pilates in Edmonton, we’ve seen how Reformer Pilates offers something deeper. Beyond the physical benefits, it’s a powerful tool for mental well-being. In today’s busy world, where stress and anxiety are all too common, Reformer Pilates provides a unique combination of movement, breath, and focus that supports a healthier, calmer mind.

Whether you’re looking to manage daily stress or simply want to feel more grounded and clear-headed, Reformer Pilates can be an important part of your mental wellness routine.

Staying active as we age is one of the most important things we can do to support our health, mobility, and overall well-being. But not all forms of exercise are equally suited for older adults. At Forum Pilates in Edmonton, we believe Pilates—especially Reformer Pilates—offers a safe, low-impact, and highly effective way for seniors to build strength, improve balance, and feel more confident in their movement.
