Reformer Pilates in Playa Pelada
Six reformers, air conditioning, and a paved lot out front. Quick to reach, easy to park, no circling for a spot. The original Black Cat Studio, open since 2024.
the space
Six Reformers, One Room.
Tribu Plaza, Cinco Esquinas — a few minutes from the beach and a few minutes from town. Six reformers, air conditioning that actually works, and a room small enough that your instructor knows your name by the end of the first class and your dog’s by the end of the second.
Every class is capped at six. That is not a scheduling accident. It is how you get corrected mid-rep instead of slipping through the cracks.
getting here
Park Out Front. Walk In.
Free parking in the plaza lot, paved, directly in front of the studio and visible from the main road. Room for cars, motos and quads. No hunting for a spot, no walking in from somewhere else with your grip socks in hand.
Coming from Guiones, it is about a five-minute drive north. Coming from town, we are at Cinco Esquinas — look for the tall sign pylon at the roadside and turn in at Tribu Plaza.

the classes
Strength, Jump, and Deep Stretch.
Strength is the core reformer class, running at three levels so you are always in the right room. Jump is cardio on the jumpboard, without the impact on your joints. Deep Stretch is the one your shoulders, hips and spine will thank you for after a week of waves or desk work.
Everyone starts at Level 1, whatever you have done elsewhere. Every studio cues differently and ours is specific — three Level 1 classes before you move up, so you learn our style properly. That is quality control, and it is as much for the other people in the room as it is for you.
