Train Your Way, 24/7

Why Choose 24/7 Reformer Pilates at ThistleFit?

Traditional Pilates studios often operate around scheduled classes. At ThistleFit, you can fit your Pilates workouts around your lifestyle, rather than the other way around.

Our reformer machines use adjustable resistance and controlled movements to deliver a challenging, low-impact workout that can help improve strength, flexibility and core stability.

Here’s what makes our approach different:

  • 24/7 Access – Train early, late or whenever it works for you.

  • Screen-Guided Workouts – Integrated electronic screens help guide you through your Pilates exercises.

  • Optional Introductory Session – Get familiar with the machines and how they work before training independently.

  • Optional Personal Sessions – Book additional one-on-one instruction when you'd like personalised support.

  • Small Group Classes – Prefer training with others? Paid small group sessions are also available.

  • Full-Body Fitness – Develop strength, flexibility, balance and better movement control.

Whether you're looking to complement your gym workouts or make Pilates part of your regular routine, ThistleFit gives you the flexibility to train your way.

Reformer Pilates for Beginners and Experienced Users

Never used a Pilates reformer before? No problem. Reformer Pilates uses a specialised machine with a moving carriage, springs and adjustable resistance to create a wide variety of exercises.

Our optional introductory session helps you become familiar with the equipment, while the integrated screens provide workout guidance when you're training independently.

If you'd prefer more hands-on instruction, personal sessions and small group classes are available at an additional cost.

It's about giving you options, not forcing everyone into the same training format.

ThistleFit is proudly locally owned and based in Ravenswood, conveniently located for people living in Rangiora, Kaiapoi, Pegasus, Woodend and surrounding North Canterbury communities.

We're not a corporate fitness chain. We're a gym built around real people, quality facilities and a genuine community atmosphere. Now, with 24/7 Reformer Pilates, there are even more ways to enjoy your training.
