The Reformr Pilates Studio · Shams Boutik
Reformer Pilates in Abu Dhabi
Seven Merrithew® V2 Max reformers, softly lit arches and certified instructors — Reformer Pilates on Al Reem Island, done properly.
Why the reformer
Why train on the reformer?
A sliding carriage and springs make every exercise gentler or harder — so one class suits a beginner and an athlete.
How Reformer Pilates works- Adjustable. Springs challenge or support you, exercise by exercise.
- Full-body. Legs, glutes, arms, back and core in every session.
- Low-impact. Kind to knees, hips and back.
- Precise. A moving carriage keeps your deep core switched on.

Reformer Pilates in Abu Dhabi
Good to know.
Is Reformer Pilates suitable for beginners?
Yes. Beginner Reformr. classes need no previous experience, and the springs can be set lighter or heavier to meet you where you are.
Where is your Reformer Pilates studio in Abu Dhabi?
On the 1st floor of Shams Boutik, Al Reem Island, next to the ladies-only spa. See directions, parking and hours.
How much is a Reformer Pilates class?
A tryout class is AED 159. Packages bring it down to about AED 133 per class — see all prices.
What is the difference between Reformer Pilates and regular Pilates?
Regular (mat) Pilates uses your body weight on the floor. Reformer Pilates adds a sliding carriage and springs, which can make a move harder or support you through it, so you get more resistance and more help with form. Read our full guide.
Are there any downsides to Reformer Pilates?
It costs more than a mat class and needs a studio and a trained instructor, so it is not something you can do at home. With an injury, tell your instructor first so they can adjust the springs and moves for you.
Is there Reformer Pilates near me in Abu Dhabi?
Our reformer studio is on Al Reem Island, a short drive from the Corniche, Al Zahiyah and Al Maryah Island. For Lagree, our second studio is at Abu Dhabi Mall. Compare both in our guide to Pilates in Abu Dhabi.
Do you have ladies-only Reformer Pilates classes?
Yes. We run both ladies-only and mixed classes at Shams Boutik; the class name on the schedule tells you which is which.
Can I do Reformer Pilates while pregnant?
Yes, with a doctor’s certificate confirming you are fit to exercise. Let your instructor know how you are feeling each time.
What is your cancellation policy?
Classes cancelled within 12 hours of the start time are charged in full. Read our studio policies.
