Milo and the Bull has expanded its Peckham Rye studio to include Reformer Pilates, catering for gym-goers curious about Pilates, new mums and those recovering from injury.

While Milo and the Bull has been a fixture in Peckham Rye since opening in 2022, the studio added another layer to their hybrid offering with the launch of reformer classes in December.

Following the success of its dedicated Milo Reformer location on Bermondsey Street, now a year old, the move to Peckham marks the brand’s latest step in broadening its strength-led and hybrid approach to fitness.

The 12 bed reformer Pilates studio is attached to the main Milo and the Bull training, allowing members to mix reformer Pilates with the brand’s signature hybrid sessions. An introductory offer gives newcomers the chance to try two reformer classes for £25.

Known for its varied programming – from HYROX circuits to rowing classes – the Peckham Rye studio now mirrors the reformer-focused setup first introduced at Milo Reformer Bermondsey last year.

Located across the ground and first floor of Market Peckham, the studio sits just metres from Peckham Rye Station.

Classes soft-launched just before Christmas, and they have now released an expanded timetable this month.

Unlike mat Pilates, reformer is performed on a machine – called a reformer – which uses spring-based resistance to create a fuller range of movement and scalable difficulty.

While it’s often perceived as the more intimidating cousin of traditional Pilates, the adjustable springs can both challenge and support the body, making it suitable for everything from strength-building to rehabilitation and injury prevention.

According to Alex, head of reformer at Milo and the Bull, the ethos remains consistent across both Milo Reformer and Milo Training.

“We’re all about balance, consistency and enjoyment,” he explains. “We see Milo Reformer as a great complement to Milo Training – it can help boost performance and build strength holistically, but it’s also great as its own full-body workout.”

Crucially, reformer isn’t reserved for the ultra-flexible or already fit. Alex adds that reformer is designed to be accessible to everyone, whether it’s your first time or you’re already familiar with working out.

Comfortable socks and activewear are all that’s needed, with instructors guiding participants through layered exercises and modifications so everyone can work at a level that feels right for their body.

From the end of January, the Peckham studio will introduce a weekly Strong Mum Reformer class, designed for pre- and post-natal participants. Held every Friday at 10:30am, the class allows mums to focus on rebuilding strength without worrying about childcare.

The team also plans to introduce athletic reformer classes later this year, featuring more dynamic sequences, cardio elements, and higher stability demands.

Pricing:

Milo and the Bull’s pricing reflects its split offering. Unlimited access to Milo Training classes is priced at £180 per month, while those looking for more flexibility can opt for class packs, with four classes a month for £60 or eight for £100.

Reformer sessions are priced separately, with memberships costing £200 per month for 12 classes or £150 for eight classes. For those keen to mix both styles, the studio also offers a combined membership at £220 per month, which includes eight reformer classes alongside eight Milo Training sessions.
