FORM AUTUMN RESET RETREAT
9-11 October 2026
Dunfanaghy, Donegal

We are so excited to be going back to Donegal for a weekend of movement, connection and relaxation. This will be our fourth time on retreat in Dunfanaghy but this time we will also be adding Reformer sessions to the daily schedule along with Vinyasa Flow, Yin Yoga and Yoga Nidra.

The focus of this retreat is on rest and relaxation - it’s a chance to connect outside the studios with the Form community and enjoy some time to reset as we head from summer into Autumn.

In addition to daily movement practices, there will be hiking, sea-swimming, a sea-sauna session and a hot-tub onsite. However, as always on Form retreats, everything is optional. This is your retreat - you choose how you spend your time. If extra rest is what you need, then rest is what you do 🤍

A special addition to this year’s retreat will be Kathryn O’Loan - Kathryn will be offering lymphatic drainage massages over the weekend in the treatment room (additional extra).

The retreat will be fully catered with home-made, nourishing food. Rooms are on a shared basis. Spaces are limited - our previous retreats have sold out quickly! If you would like to register your interest and get more info, please DM or email Ciara at [email protected] - I cannot wait for this!

FORM FIT - Reformer Teacher Training - Autumn 2026

FORM FIT is a comprehensive, practical training course, designed to guide you through the FORM method of delivering dynamic Reformer fitness classes. This course has been developed by Ciara based on her 16 years’ + knowledge and experience as a certified L3 Pilates and Fitness Instructor and includes various other influences from her trainings in Group Fitness, Yoga, Lagree and Strength training.

The FORM FIT method encompasses the Pilates principles, Reformer fundamentals and functional movements - this course will provide you with a solid foundation in each of these elements and teach you how to combine them to create and deliver dynamic Reformer classes that focus on form, flow and fitness.

When you graduate from this course, you will have a sound understanding of how to sequence and deliver classes on the Reformer for mixed abilities and have the confidence to teach group Reformer Pilates / Fitness classes.

This course is designed for:
a) aspiring Reformer Teachers
b) recently qualified Reformer teachers who feel they need more practical training
c) self-development for our clients who love Reformer and want to gain a deeper understanding of the practice. For those of you that want to teach Reformer, you must already hold a minimum L3 certification in Mat Pilates or a relevant fitness / movement discipline that has included the study of anatomy.

NEW INFRARED HEAT - NEW CLASS - FREE TASTERS

We are celebrating this week at Form 🥳 Our new infrared heaters are installed in our Magherafelt studio, new Lagree balance poles have arrived AND it’s International Pilates Day this weekend so we are running some free Taster classes this week:

HOT SCULPT 🔥 Weds 6pm with Ciara

A fusion class that combines Pilates, Barre, strength & cardio intervals under the infrared heat (approx 32 degrees) for a full-body sculpting workout. We use props including weights, rings and bands to tone and strengthen while the infrared heat intensifies the challenge, boosts circulation and post-class recovery. Sweats, shakes and good beats 💪🔥

REFORMER TASTERS

Magherafelt: Saturday 12pm with Anna
The perfect way and place to start your Reformer journey.

LAGREE MICROFORMER TASTER

HOT YOGA
Magherafelt: Sunday 9am with Katherine

MONTHLY MEMBERSHIPS HAVE LANDED…
We are delighted to be offering two new monthly membership options at Form.

1. GOOD FORM: 8 classes per month - 4 machine-based (Reformer / Lagree) and 4 mat-based (FIIT, Yoga, Pilates, Barre) - £100.

2. GREAT FORM: 10 classes per month - 6 machine-based (Reformer / Lagree) and 4 mat-based (FIIT, Yoga, Pilates, Barre) - £125.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW:
1. All classes must be used within the month - no transfers / extensions.
2. Payments will be taken on the 1st of each month and will automatically renew - your class passes will also be automatically added to your account.
3. Minimum 2 month commitment period - after that you can cancel anytime on the app.
4. The 8 hour cancellation policy applies as normal.
5. Members receive a 15% discount on socks, merch & drinks.
6. Your minting credits can be used to book classes across all 3 Form studio locations.

This is the most cost-effective option for those of you that do a combination of classes. Remember FIIT is a mat-based class so even if you only do Reformer / Lagree & FIIT, you will still benefit from this option.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Your monthly membership starts from date of purchase NOT your first booking. Memberships run from 1st of the month. If you buy today or within the next week, you will be charged a pro-rated discounted amount but will still get your full allocation of classes - so a good opportunity to get an even better deal for April! Just make sure you can use your classes by end of April.

I hope this all makes sense but if you have any queries at all, just reach out. We value and appreciate our community so much and I hope this may help to make it easier for some of our regular clients. Thanks and much love,
Ciara & the Form Team 🤍🩶
