Do I need experience for Mat Pilates?

No. Mat Pilates is one of the most accessible entry points to the method — your instructor introduces the breath and core connection and scales every movement to you.

Is Mat Pilates as effective as reformer?

Both are highly effective. Mat builds exceptional core control and body awareness; the reformer adds variety and resistance. They complement each other beautifully.

What is it?

What is Mat Pilates?

Mat Pilates is the original form of the practice — a sequence of controlled, bodyweight movements performed on a mat, sometimes with light props like a ring or small ball. It trains deep core control, breath, and alignment with no machine required, which makes it both accessible and endlessly progressable.

Two paths, one method.

Mat Pilates uses your bodyweight and small props; the reformer adds a sliding carriage and spring resistance for more support and variety. Most members love a mix of both — drag the slider to compare the two.

Lizette Robles, Founder & Lead Instructor

Expert guidance

Taught with care by Lizette Robles.

Reyna Pilates began with a simple belief: movement should feel like care, not punishment. A proud Odessa entrepreneur, Lizette is also the founder of Golden Oak Venue and a paralegal at Robles Family Law — and she built Reyna as the calm, grounding counterpart to her full days. After years of practising Pilates and feeling how profoundly it changed the way she moved through life, she set out to create a studio where the Permian Basin could feel that too: unintimidating, personal, and genuinely inclusive. At Reyna she teaches the method the way she fell in love with it — slow enough to understand, precise enough to transform, and open to every body.
