Music Is in Our DNA: Why Sound Matters at Prescription

There’s a reason every Prescription class starts with a beat.

Movement and music are deeply connected, not just in how we feel, but in how we focus, move, and stay motivated. From the moment you step onto the Reformer, our playlists are crafted to drive energy, rhythm, and results.

Because at Prescription, music isn’t background noise.
It’s part of the method.

The Science: Why Music Boosts Motivation

Studies show that music can significantly impact exercise performance — increasing endurance, focus, and even pain tolerance. Why?

• Rhythmic beats help sync movement and breath

• Familiar or upbeat music triggers dopamine (your reward chemical)

• It boosts mood, reduces perceived effort, and makes you more likely to push harder and enjoy it

In short: music moves your brain — so your body follows.

Why Music Is Core to the Prescription Method

Our classes are dynamic by design. The flow, the sequencing, the pace — all intentionally paired with music that lifts you, sets your rhythm, and keeps you present.

Each instructor curates their own playlists to match the class energy: From grounding Recovery flows to explosive cardio pulses, your body knows what to do the moment the music drops.

It’s not just a vibe — it’s a tool.

Prescription Mix: Movement Meets Music, Live

To celebrate this connection, we created The Prescription Mix — a reformer class with a live DJ set bringing the studio to life.

After the sold-out energy of our first edition, we’re back with Prescription Mix 002 on Friday, May 30 in Saldanha.
