takemewithyou Posted November 4, 2023 #1 Share Posted November 4, 2023 I think I have seen Pilates classes mentioned as available in the spa/fitness area. Does anyone know if they have a Pilates Refomer machine available? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazznruby Posted November 4, 2023 #2 Share Posted November 4, 2023 A subject dear to my heart. Have been hoping O would add a reformer to the fitness room, but alas, unless it's something new on one or all of the ships, I've never seen it on either Marina or Riviera. I keep hoping. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
takemewithyou Posted November 4, 2023 Author #3 Share Posted November 4, 2023 @jazznrubyThanks for your reply. I am starting to hear of some cruise ships acquiring reformers. Maybe O will get a few one of these days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do take up quite a bit of space and may have been removed for other equipment that is used more often. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare vlthom Posted November 22, 2023 #7 Share Posted November 22, 2023 I. Wish that they had them, but they don’t. They offer a mat pilates class periodically, but that’s it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some RCCL ships have reformers. They fold up to stack standing up when there are other classes in the studio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VL1 Posted November 24, 2023 #9 Share Posted November 24, 2023 Reformers take up space and they are not very popular when you consider how many more folks will use a treadmill for instance. I adore Pilates, but you don't need a reformer to do it. Wish they had some classes, which alas, they do not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mat Pilates is much harder to do. There were a few Pilates classes on our last Marina cruise in october. We were off the ship each time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I'm concerned, mat/floor pilates is completely different from a reformer, and yes, for my 75 year old body, the reformer is much more comfortable. Easier for stretching, and many more exercises than on the floor. But again, I don't expect to see a reformer onboard any O ship any time in the near future. Unfortunately. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
