Clinical reformer Pilates

Core rehab, reimagined.

A therapeutic form of Pilates led by our physiotherapy team and chiropractors on the reformer, focused on core stability, posture, functional movement, strength and balance to aid your rehabilitation. While it's a cornerstone of pregnancy and postpartum recovery, Clinical Pilates is for everyone, every body, every age, every phase of life. Babies are welcome at any appointment.

Why the reformer

Support where you need it, challenge where you're ready.

The reformer's springs let us dial resistance up or down precisely, so we can support a healing core and pelvic floor early on, then progressively load them as you get stronger. Every movement is chosen by your physiotherapist for your body and goals.

It's ideal for diastasis recti, C-section and birth recovery, pelvic floor coordination, and a confident return to running, weight training and sport, and it's just as powerful for anyone else building strength, managing pain, or moving through a new phase of life.

Your physiotherapist or chiropractor will:

01

Assess

A one-on-one assessment that will go through your subjective history, a physical assessment, and save time at the end of your appointment to begin your Pilates-based rehab program.

02

Rebuild

Working with your physiotherapist, PTA, or chiropractor you will work on your personalized treatment plan using the reformer, mat and/or weights to address your assessment findings.

03

Progress

Getting you back to 100% takes time and progressive overload. This is where the magic happens and creates lasting results.

Pilates for everyone.

A year into my Pilates journey, I can confidently say how impactful my sessions with Sujena have been! After taking a short break from Pilates physio, I was amazed by how much my body still remembered the fundamentals she taught me...from deep breathing and core engagement to posture and movement patterns in daily life. She is really skilled at teaching and knowledge translation; she doesn't just guide me through exercises, she helps me truly understand them. I started as a complete novice, and I appreciate how clearly she explained things and how thoughtfully she progressed exercises to match my abilities. Coming back to sessions at Groove felt fun, familiar, and empowering, and I'm so grateful for the strong foundation she helped me build.

An amazing first experience at Groove recently! I went in for a tuneup after experiencing knee and hip pain from running a half marathon. Michaela was so knowledgable and created such a comfortable environment in the studio. I left Groove without the stiffness and discomfort I came in with, and honestly felt lighter and more aligned. Michaela's approach is thoughtful, evidence-based, and personalized; I'd highly recommend for anyone dealing with running-related aches or wanting to move more freely.

10/10 physio experience, can't wait for my next session! Michaela was so incredibly wonderful to work with- not only is she an absolute joy to be around, she's so passionate and knowledgeable in her practice. I really loved her approach in blending more traditional physio with reformer pilates- something I've been so excited to try and am so grateful I was able to do so in a 1-1 structure where you feel so supported. Also the studio space is absolutely stunning, and she's done such a fantastic job at creating such a beautifully warm and welcoming atmosphere.

A great addition to the community. The team is warm and welcoming. The energy is supportive. If you are dealing with an injury, looking to build strength back after a setback or some time away, and you need a genuine therapy team, I strongly recommend checking them out!

Stories from postpartum recovery.

So happy I found Groove during my pregnancy! Michaela and the entire team are incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, and welcoming. They've made such a difference in helping me feel comfortable and confident throughout my pregnancy, and I always leave feeling so much better. I couldn't recommend Groove enough!

The team at Groove are absolutely fantastic! I've had amazing treatment here for my postpartum concerns. I'm also able to bring my 10 month old and Michaela always has a play mat, toys, and snacks. Highly recommend!!!

I love everything about Groove! Michaela and her team have been such a gift in my postpartum recovery.

It's been fun and safe to come back to exercising and strengthen my core again. They also really helped me with my C section healing. After only a few sessions I felt very empowered and ready to tackle more.

I've done both individual and group classes with mom friends, with our babies always there having the most fun doing tummy time and getting love and cuddles from physios. Oh, and the reformers are big plus!
