Pilates Wunda Chair with Handles
A Wunda Chair with removable handles is a compact, versatile Pilates chair that fits a home studio or a commercial studio. We're Australian owned and operated, with a Sydney showroom where you can try before you buy, plus rent-to-own and payment plan options.
What do handles add to a Wunda Chair?
Handles widen what you can do on the chair
Handles turn the Wunda Chair from a foot-pedal machine into a full-body piece of equipment. With the handles fitted, you can add spring-assisted pushes and pulls for the arms and shoulders, standing work that challenges balance, and seated exercises that bring in the upper body alongside the core.
Compact enough for a home studio
The chair's footprint is about 60cm x 60cm, so it fits into a spare corner of a home studio or a small commercial studio without taking over the room. It is also lightweight and easy to move, which helps if you share the space.
Because spring tension is adjustable, the same chair can suit a beginner finding their feet and an experienced practitioner wanting more resistance.
Start with how you'll actually use it. Handles give you far more exercise options, so it's worth choosing a chair where they adjust and remove easily.

Good form and qualified instruction matter on any chair, especially once you add handle work, so we'd encourage a lesson or two before settling into a routine.
Motion Pilates Wunda Chair: handles that adjust to you
The Motion Pilates Wunda Chair comes with removable handles that adjust with a simple twist-and-pull knob, across a height range of 115cm to 145cm. That lets you set them to suit your own proportions and the exercise in front of you.
The pedals can be joined or separated using the included wooden bar, which locks through the pedals. Keep them joined for combined pushes, or split them for single-leg work.
It sits alongside our reformers, barrels and trapeze tables from trusted brands like Pioneer Pilates and Motion Pilates.
Pioneer Pilates Deluxe Wunda Chair: split pedals and removable handles
The Pioneer Pilates Deluxe Wunda Chair pairs a split pedal combo with removable handles, so one chair covers single-leg work, two-legged pushes and handle-based upper body exercises.

The frame is hand-sanded beechwood, upholstered in durable material over EVA foam padding. That makes the platform comfortable to sit, stand or kneel on during a session.
If you're comparing it with the Motion Pilates model above, the main difference is the pedal setup: here the pedals are split rather than joinable.
What to look for in a Wunda Chair with handles
A good Wunda Chair with handles comes down to a handful of features you can check before you buy. Use this list to compare models.
- Removable, adjustable handles: the Motion Pilates chair uses a twist-and-pull knob across a 115cm to 145cm height range.
- Split or combo pedals: split pedals allow single-leg work, and joinable pedals give you both options in one chair.
- Adjustable spring resistance: lets you scale the load as your practice changes.
- Sturdy frame: solid timber, such as the hand-sanded beechwood on the Pioneer Pilates Deluxe.
- Non-slip feet: keep the chair steady on timber or tile floors.
- Padded platform: comfortable, durable upholstery with EVA foam padding.
- Compact footprint: about 60cm x 60cm suits most home studios.
Who is a chair with handles best suited to?
A Wunda Chair with handles suits most people, because spring tension and handle use can be adjusted to your level. Beginners can work with lighter resistance while they learn the movements. Advanced practitioners can add spring load for core, balance, upper body and lower body work, plus posture-focused exercises.
Its compact footprint and seated options also make it a popular choice for adaptive workouts. If you are returning from injury or have limited mobility, get clearance from your physiotherapist or doctor first, and work with a qualified instructor so your form stays sound.
That is where we come in. We recommend models based on your space, experience and goals. At our Sydney showroom you can try before you buy, and we look after delivery and installation. Our aftercare and customer service team stays on hand once the chair is home.
Wunda Chair handle questions we hear often
Are the handles included, and can I remove them?
Yes. Handles come with our Motion Pilates and Pioneer Pilates chairs, and both sets are removable. Pop them off for pedal work and fit them back for standing or upper body exercises.
How much space does a Wunda Chair need?
The footprint is about 60cm x 60cm, so it suits most home studios. Leave extra room around it for movement. Our Sydney showroom team can help you check your space.
What is the difference between a Wunda Chair and a Wonder Chair?
A Wunda Chair has split pedals for independent single-leg work. A Wonder Chair uses a single pedal.
What do Wunda Chairs cost, and do you deliver?
Prices start from AUD 800. We also offer delivery and installation, aftercare, rent-to-own and payment plans. Confirm current pricing on each product page.
Is it suitable for beginners or after an injury?
Spring tension is adjustable, so beginners and advanced users can both use it. Check with your doctor or physiotherapist before starting after an injury.
