1. What should I expect for my first Reformer class?
We ask that new clients arrive 10 minutes early. This allows for time to meet the instructor, get set up on your Reformer, and discuss any specific modifications you might need throughout class so that you have a safe and effective workout.
2. Where can I park?
Our studio has an entrance on both sides. Most clients park in the lot on the south side of the building. Street parking is available on the North side of the building.
3. What should I wear?
Whether you are coming in for an Assisted Stretch or a Reformer class, Choose clothing that you can move in. We recommend clothing that is not too tight, but also not so loose that it might get caught. Wearing layers is a great idea too. It may take a while to warm up, so a long sleeve top that you can easily remove would be ideal.
4. What should I wear on my feet?
When you enter the studio you will be asked to remove your shoes. We recommend grip socks during your Reformer class. If you do not have grip socks you can take the class barefoot.
5. What should I bring to my Reformer class?
We recommend bringing a bottle of water so that you can hydrate during and after class. Perhaps most importantly, bring awareness to your workout. How is your body feeling? Do you have any aches or pains? Will you need to make modifications during your workout? What are you hoping to get out of your reformer workout?
6. What type of equipment do you have?
We are a Reformer based studio and use Allegro 2 Reformers designed by Balanced Body. Each Reformer has a white, powder-coated aluminum frame and is equipped with a carbon fiber infinity footbar.
7. Can my teenager take a Reformer class?
Reformer Pilates isn't just safe for teenagers, but it actually equips them with much needed habits for posture and movement that will stay with them for a lifetime! Attending a new class can be daunting, no matter what your age. Plan on attending their first class with them to alleviate their worry. Make sure to choose one of our Foundations Reformer classes to ease them into Reformer Pilates.
8. How many times a week should I schedule a Reformer Pilates class?
For most people, the sweet spot when doing Reformer Pilates is at least 2-3 times per week. Just enough to see results but not feel overwhelmed. However, the amount of work you put into your sessions and the number of times you need to work out largely depends on the goals you've set for your body. Don't forget, we also offer a group Stretch & Restore class on the Reformer that is a great class when you need to schedule a recovery day.
9. What days are you open?
We are open Monday-Saturday and offer group Reformer classes every morning. You can book evening classes Monday-Thursday.
10. What is your cancellation policy?
We have a 12 hour cancellation policy in effect for all group classes, private Reformer, and Assisted Stretch sessions. All cancellations or changes received via email are not valid. All cancellations or changes must be managed online by the client, at least 12 hours prior to your booking to avoid forfeiting your class or 1-on1 credit.
