Unlike traditional Pilates classes, Hagag teaches 25 minutes on the Reformer and 25 minutes on the Cadillac —all in one session — at her studios in New York City and Miami, Florida.
“Nofar Method blends the precision of classical Pilates with a creative, challenging and intuitive flow. … I wanted to create something more athletic, but friendly, that also that felt affective, personal, and transformative. … Using both the Cadillac and Reformer machines in a single class is something that’s rarely done. This unique combination allows for a wider range of movement, more variety in exercises, and a deeper, more effective full-body workout,” the former NCAA Division 1 water polo athlete tells ET.
Think: Detailed technique merged with a purposeful blend of equipment; all set in an atmosphere filled with Himalayan salt crystals to engage the body and the mind.
“We add thoughtfully chosen props like resistance bands, light weights, rotation discs, and the Bosu ball to activate and challenge smaller, stabilizing muscles and bring a new level of precision to every movement,” she shares.
As for the expected results? “Clients typically see improved posture, better muscle definition, a stronger core, and increased flexibility. … You’ll feel stronger, longer, and more connected to your body after every class. … There’s also a boost in confidence, mental clarity, and body awareness. You carry yourself differently when you feel strong and aligned. … My goal is to help people discover how strong and capable they already are.”
To take your routine to the next level, Hagag suggests finding a healthy balance which includes exercise and relaxation.
“Walk as much as you can, especially outdoors, combine Pilates with weight training, and try low impact movement like swimming or yoga. Rest is also essential. Your body needs time to recover and restore so it can perform at its best. Movement should leave you feeling energized, not depleted,” the trainer says.
