What Reformer Pilates actually is

Reformer Pilates uses a sliding carriage and adjustable springs to add resistance and support at the same time. That combination is why it suits both beginners rebuilding strength and athletes chasing control. Class sizes are usually capped at the number of machines in the room, so a studio with eight Reformers runs classes of eight.

  • Spring loaded resistance on a moving carriage
  • Small group sizes, capped by machine count
  • Low impact on joints
  • Scales from beginner to advanced on the same machine
  • Usually the highest priced class on a studio menu

Typical is the median, not the average, so one high priced studio cannot drag a city upward. A city appears once at least two of its studios have published a price, and the cities with the most priced studios come first. A drop in is each studio's standard group class price, so where a studio teaches several styles it may not be the Reformer Pilates price.

Is Reformer Pilates right for you?

The honest version. Every class style suits some people and not others, and a directory that pretends otherwise wastes your first class fee.

It suits you if

  • Anyone rebuilding strength after injury, because the springs assist as well as resist
  • People who want small classes and hands on correction
  • Runners and cyclists chasing hip and core control
  • Complete beginners, who often find the machine easier than the mat

Look elsewhere if

  • Anyone after a cardio session. Reformer builds control, not heart rate
  • People who want a cheap unlimited membership, since machine count caps every class

Before you book

What happens in your first class

  1. 1Arrive ten minutes early so the instructor can set your springs and footbar
  2. 2Grip socks are required by almost every studio and sold at reception
  3. 3You will be shown how to get on and off the carriage before anything else
  4. 4Expect to work slower and think harder than you did in a gym class

What to ask before you pay

  • Ask how many Reformers are in the room. That number is your class size
  • Check whether the price you see is for group, duet or private
  • Look for a foundations or level 1 class on the timetable, not just all levels
  • Ask when the apparatus was last serviced. Good studios answer immediately

Reformer Pilates questions

How much does Reformer Pilates cost?

A single Reformer class usually costs $28 to $50 depending on the city and the studio. Class packs bring that down, and most studios run an intro offer for new clients that works out far cheaper per class than a drop in.

Is Reformer Pilates good for beginners?

Yes, and it is often easier for a true beginner than mat Pilates. The springs assist the movement as well as resist it, so the machine helps you find the correct position. Look for a class labelled beginner, foundations or level 1 for your first few visits.

How is Reformer different from mat Pilates?

Mat Pilates uses your body weight on the floor. Reformer adds a carriage, springs, straps and a footbar, which lets the instructor load or unload the movement. Reformer costs more because the studio has to buy and maintain the machines and cap the class at the number of beds.

Where can I take Reformer Pilates classes?

3,044 studios in 803 cities list Reformer Pilates. The most are in New York, NY (303), Los Angeles, CA (64) and Santa Barbara, CA (43). Each city page lists every studio teaching it there.

What do studios listed here actually charge?

The median drop in price across the 168 studios here that publish one is $35, and the middle half charge $29 to $45. That is each studio's standard group drop in, so at a studio teaching several styles it may not be what a Reformer Pilates class costs there.
