If you’ve been thinking about ordering a new Pilates reformer for yourself or loved one ( I can hardly think of a nicer gift), now is the time.

Here’s what I found: Peak Pilates is offering $500.00 off their MVe reformers (coupon code: reformer), Balanced Body has $150.00 off their IQ and Allegro Sport Reformers, and Stott Pilates is giving away free jumpboards with their reformers.

The MVe, IQ, and Allegro are all portable reformers suitable for home use.
