Revolutionary Infinity Footbar and enhanced design features mark milestone anniversary of
best-selling Allegro Reformer

Balanced Body, the world’s leading resource for Pilates, mind and body movement equipment and professional training, has announced the launch of the Allegro Nextgen Reformer, marking the 25th anniversary of the original, Allegro Reformer which has become the gold standard in Pilates studios worldwide.

Since its introduction in 2000, the Allegro Reformer was quickly established as best-in-class for performance, durability, and accessibility with more than 40,000 in use across the world today. As the global industry continues to experience explosive growth and interest in Pilates, Balanced Body has revamped the Allegro Reformer to meet the evolving needs of Pilates educators, practitioners and users.

"For years, we've referred to the Allegro Reformer as our 'workhorse,’ and its high performance, low maintenance, affordable and versatile attributes have made it an all-around crowd pleaser," said Ken Endelman, Founder and CEO, Balanced Body. "The Allegro Nextgen Reformer has the proven performance and durability of the original with newly-added features to meet the progressive Pilates exercise demands of today's users and Group Reformer classes."

The centre-piece of the Allegro Nextgen Reformer is the groundbreaking Infinity Footbar which dramatically expands exercise possibilities for users while maintaining the rigorous performance standards the Allegro line is known for. The innovative footbar offers 10 horizontal and four vertical positions along the full length of the reformer, enabling a vast array of exercises, progressions and dynamic athletic reformer work. Working off both ends of the Reformer (head end and foot end) is rapidly becoming highly desired in today’s Group Reformer classes.

The Allegro Nextgen Reformer combines the signature design elements that made the Allegro a worldwide success with revolutionary new key features and accessories, including:

• Streamlined Design: The footbar's sleek profile with no protrusions makes it easier for instructors to walk around when teaching classes and working with clients

• Simplified Assembly: The new leg design is easier to attach to the Reformer, reducing onsite assembly time

• Enhanced Stability: Thicker risers provide superior strength and stability for dynamic reformer work

• Contemporary Aesthetics: Updated design complements modern studio environments

• Contemporary new leg design is easier to assemble and complements the streamlined footbar and overall look

• New thicker risers are super strong, stable and are designed to stand up to the rigors of dynamic reformer work

• Upholstered carriage with tapered edges for enhanced gripping capability
