Studio-Grade Pilates Reformer: The Monarch 🦋
The Reformers Studios Use Without the Studio Prices. The Monarch delivers the performance of a professional studio reformer without the $8,000–$10,000 markups. Built with global manufacturing partners, shipped from our Canadian warehouse and backed by Canadian-based support.
Why Does the Monarch Exist?
The Monarch was created by a comprehensively certified Pilates instructor who spent years teaching on every major reformer brand. After seeing clients struggle with uncomfortable designs, complicated adjustments, and sky-high prices, we set out to build a reformer that feels incredible to move on... without the $8,000–$10,000 price tag.
Special Features
-
Auto-Adjust Rope System
The Monarch’s auto-adjust rope system lets you fine-tune your exact rope length with a single movement. Every setting clicks securely into place, won’t loosen mid-exercise, and stays perfectly organized and tangle-free for a seamless workout experience.
-
Multi-Angle Infinity Footbar
The Infinity Footbar is engineered to feel light in the hand yet firm and solid under load. Every position locks securely so it never shifts or pops out of place, while the quick-adjust mechanism makes changing angles effortless. Anyone can reposition it in seconds, giving you smooth transitions and perfect alignment every time.
-
Most studio reformers require lifting a heavy gearbar with two hands which is awkward, bulky, and difficult for many users. The Monarch uses a simple block-style system that lifts with one finger, letting you change resistance quickly and comfortably.
Attachments Included
-
Jumpboard + Sitting Box + Soft Footpad
All Premium Attachments Included
Balanced Body and other studio brands charge $1,000+ for these add-ons but with The Monarch, your jumpboard, sitting box, and soft footpad all come included. Everything you need to expand your full Pilates repertoire comes with you from day one. -
Maple Stability Pole
For Use By Anyone Trying to Improve Balance
A beautifully crafted maple stability pole is included for upright work, balance challenges, and advanced variations. Smooth, sturdy, and designed to match the Monarch’s clean aesthetic. -
Extra Loops & Easy Assembly Kit
Everything You Need to DIY Setup
Your Monarch arrives with extra loops, all necessary hardware, and a simple DIY assembly kit. No tools, no stress. Most customers set up their reformer in under 30 minutes with minimal effort.
The Monarch Was Built For...
Home Movers – Quiet, smooth, and compact enough for real homes and condos while delivering a true studio feel.
Pilates Instructors – Built by an instructor for instructors, offering the stability, responsiveness, and adjustability needed for real teaching.
Studios & Boutique Spaces – Studio-grade performance that stands up to daily use without the $8,000–$10,000 price tag per unit.
The Difference is Huge
Traditional brands stack distributor markups, showroom overhead, and retail middlemen on top of already-expensive machines, which is why most studio reformers land near $10,000. The Monarch skips all of that with a direct-to-consumer model, meaning you get the same studio-level feel and build quality without paying for layers of people who don’t improve the equipment. More performance, less markup.
Instructor-Built. Purpose-Driven.
Behind The Monarch is a Pilates instructor who spent years watching clients fall in love with the method but get held back by their equipment.
Too many people bought cheaper reformers that broke down, wobbled, lost tension, or simply couldn’t keep up, forcing them to replace them again and again.
FormFit was created to offer something better: a reformer built with intention, engineered to last, and designed to give movers a studio-grade experience without the fear of needing a new machine in a year or two. It bridges the gap between overpriced commercial models and disposable budget equipment giving people a reformer they can trust for life.
5-Year Structural Warranty + Tested for Daily Use
Durability Guaranteed
Every Monarch is engineered to perform like a studio reformer and stand up to years of consistent training. Each unit is glide-tested, spring-tested, and reinforced for long-term stability. Your frame, rails, and core components are backed by a full 5-year structural warranty, giving you confidence and protection from the moment it arrives.

What Our Clients Think
-
“The Monarch feels exactly like the reformers at my old studio.”
I was nervous about buying my own reformer, but this machine exceeded every expectation. The glide is smooth, the frame is sturdy, and the adjustments are intuitive. I use it every morning and it’s now the best part of my day.
— Sarah M. -
“Finally, a reformer that’s built for actual teaching.”
As an instructor, I’m picky with equipment. The Monarch has the stability, carriage control, and footbar functionality I need to work with all levels of clients. It’s become my go-to machine for privates at home.
— Emily R. -
“We've fitted our studio with Monarchs and we’re not going back.”
The value is unbelievable for the quality you get. Our clients noticed the smoothness immediately, and the simplified adjustments make transitions faster during classes. The machines look beautiful in the space and have held up through heavy daily use.
