Contrology® JGRIMES Reformer
We partnered with Jay Grimes to recreate the Reformer feel and functionality essential to the classical Pilates approach. Using Jay's own apparatus, we took exact measurements and listened closely to his insights and recollections to build the finest version of the original Reformers used around 1970. Our JGRIMES Reformer offers 'everything you need, and not all that other stuff you don't', without modifications—just as Jay wanted it.

FROM THE COMMUNITY
Having had a studio reformer for 20 years and then briefly a vintage (custom) Fletcher-style, I am delighted with the JGrimes model. So basic (in all the best ways!) I am equally thrilled with the service and performance of purchasing the reformer. I praise everything about the process — communication was especially notable. Thank you.
