Equipment

Wunda Chair

The Wunda chair — Pilates chair — is a compact spring-loaded box with a pedal. It supports seated, standing, and kneeling strength work with a smaller footprint than a reformer or Cadillac. Chair exercises on this site include footwork, pumping, plank variations, and spinal extension patterns. Pedal spring setting changes load dramatically, so mark your settings when learning a sequence. Standing chair work demands ankle stability and clear stopping points on the pedal before adding range or speed.
