Peak Pilates UK is excited to highlight the increasing demand for reformer-based training through its recent partnership with 3-1-5 Health Club in Lancaster.

With the reformer market growing rapidly, members of 3-1-5 Health Club can now enjoy Peak Pilates' high-performance reformer equipment and join FitCore™ Reformer classes within the 3-1-5 Sculpt Studio. This new offering at 3-1-5- Health Club aligns with the rising interest in reformer-based workouts across the whole of the UK.

This collaboration brings a new level of fitness innovation to the 3-1-5 community, powered by Peak Pilates’ world-class reformers and exceptional instructor training.

Howard Braband, Managing Director of Peak Pilates UK said “We were delighted with the team’s decision to bring Peak Pilates reformers into the 3-1-5 Health Club family, which stems from a shared commitment to quality and holistic fitness experiences. Demand for reformer training is huge, we are experiencing extraordinary growth in this sector of the industry from both independent studios and large fitness chains. After a thorough research process, which we were very pleased to assist the team with, 3-1-5 found Peak Pilates to be the perfect fit for their vision of enhancing member experience through a superior fitness offering.”

"When searching the market, Peak Pilates really stood out to us here at 3-1-5," said KJ Dixon 3-1-5 Performance Manager for the club. "It wasn’t just the design and look of the reformer equipment that impressed us, but the attention to detail in the support we received, from the delivery of the training through to installation of the reformers."

A highlight of the collaboration is the introduction of FitCore™ Programme for Group Reformer Speciality Certification an innovative reformer-based programme tailored for group classes. FitCore™ Reformer is specifically designed to build core strength, improve flexibility, and enhance overall fitness. With Peak Pilates UK’s expert Master Trainer Christie Braband guiding the process, 3-1-5 Health Club successfully trained their instructors in preparation for the launch.

"FitCore™ training was brilliant. Christie's delivery was inclusive and engaging, and all our instructors completed the training excited for our future with FitCore™ classes!" added KJ.

3-1-5 Health Club opened their Sculpt Studio in September 2024, with 16 Peak Pilates fit™ reformers.
