MVe™ Chair/Mat Classes

The MVe™ Chair from Peak Pilates of Boulder, Colorado is a re-imagined Pilates Wunda chair. It has been designed to stretch and strengthen muscle groups not easily reached by more traditional techniques and equipment. It consists of a seat and a footbar with attached springs. A future upgrade will add handles. Class participants sit, lie or stand on the MVe Chair (or on a Pilates mat on the floor next to it) and push the footbar with their hands or feet. The class is typically done to music.

The exercises for the MVe™ Chair focus on core strength, leg strength, the shoulder girdle mobility and strength, and functional movements such as standing, climbing, pushing and lifting. That’s why exercising on the MVe Chair is a great form of cross-training for triathletes, bicyclists, skiers, runners, rock climbers, tennis players, golfers, basketball, soccer or football players, and for clients looking to increase power in the upper body for throwing, lifting and racquet sports. It is for both men and women.

MVe Chair workouts at JoyMoves are often combined with Pilates mat work. For example, class participants can do abdominals on the mat, stand up and work on the MVe™ Chair, and then return to mat exercises.
