Create Your Dream Home Pilates Studio: Design & Setup Guide
How to Design the Perfect Home Pilates Studio
A home Pilates studio isn’t just about having a Reformer—it’s about creating a space that inspires movement, mindfulness, and consistency. Whether you have a dedicated room or just a small corner, the right setup makes all the difference.
1. Choose the Right Space
Find a calm, clutter-free area where you can move freely. Ideally, your studio should have:
✔ Enough room for your Reformer and mat work
✔ Good lighting for an energising atmosphere
✔ A quiet setting for focus and relaxation
2. Invest in Essential Pilates Equipment
Your studio should be functional yet minimal, with high-quality equipment that supports your goals. Must-have items include:
✔ A FitBoutique Reformer for strength and flexibility
✔ A Pilates mat for floor exercises
✔ Resistance bands & props for added variety
✔ A mirror to check your form
3. Create a Motivating Atmosphere
Enhance your studio with calming decor, neutral tones, and soft lighting. Consider adding:
✔ A speaker for soothing playlists or guided sessions
✔ Storage solutions to keep props organised
✔ Plants or candles to set a relaxing mood
4. Stay Inspired with Online Workouts
Having a home studio means flexibility in your routine. Keep things fresh by accessing virtual Pilates classes, guided sessions, and personalised programs to stay motivated.
Your home Pilates studio should be a space where you feel inspired to move every day. With a little planning and the right equipment, you can create a studio-quality experience in your own home. Ready to design your perfect Pilates space? Start today with FitBoutique!

Frequently Asked Questions
How much space do I need for a reformer bed?
Space Requirements for Your Reformer
A FitBoutique reformer requires approximately 245cm x 68cm (2.45m x 0.65m) of floor space. Here's what this means for your space planning:
For Home Users
Length: 245cm (8.04 feet)
Width: 68cm (2.13 feet)
Recommended clearance: Add at least 30cm on each side and end for comfortable access
Total recommended space: 305cm x 125cm (3.05m x 1.25m)
For the Onyx Fold model specifically:
Same footprint when in use (245cm x 65cm)
When folded: Takes up significantly less floor space in vertical storage
Ceiling height consideration: Ensure adequate height for vertical storage
What's the difference between commercial and home reformers?
While both offer similar exercise capabilities, commercial reformers typically feature heavier-duty construction, enhanced weight capacity, and more extensive warranty coverage. However, premium home models like the Onyx series bridge this gap with commercial-grade components.
How often should I maintain my reformer?
Regular maintenance includes weekly cleaning, monthly hardware checks, and quarterly deep cleaning of tracks and wheels. Premium reformers come with detailed maintenance guides to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
