Frequently Asked Questions
Getting Started
Q. I'm new to Reformer Pilates. Can I still take a class?
A. Absolutely! Our Reformer 1 class on Thursdays at 6:30-7:15 PM are specifically designed for those who are new to reformer pilates. Reformer 1 is open for all levels but this class has a slower flow and focuses on the basics. If you are not able to make the Reformer 1 class, that is ok, too. Our classes are designed to be adaptive, allowing exercises to be modified or progressed based on your experience, fitness level, and individual needs.
Q. Do you have different levels of classes?
A. Right now, the majority of our classes allows the instructor to be adaptive, with exercises modified or progressed based on the individuals in class so whether you're new to Pilates or have more experience, you'll be challenged at a level that's appropriate for you.
We also offer Reformer 1 Pilates on Thursdays at 6:30-7:15 PM which is specifically designed for those who are new to reformer pilates and need a slower flow and more focus on the basics.
If you have an injury, difficulty with movement, or concerns about getting up and down from the reformer, please contact the studio before booking so we can help determine the best fit.
Q. What if I have an injury or physical limitation?
A. If you have an injury or medical condition that limits you, please contact the studio before booking so we can help determine the best class or training option for you.
Q. How often should I attend?
A. It depends on your goals. If you already strength train or participate in other forms of exercise, 1–2 classes per week is a great complement to your training. If Reformer Pilates is your primary form of exercise, we recommend attending 3–4 times per week to see the best results.
Booking Your Visit
Q. How do I book a class?
A. Classes can be booked through our website or the WellnessLiving Achieve app. The app makes it easy to book classes, manage your schedule, and purchase memberships or class packs.
Q. What happens if a class is full?
A. If a class is full, we encourage you to join the waitlist. If a spot becomes available, members are automatically promoted in the order they joined the waitlist, up to 2 hours before class. You won't be charged unless you're promoted into the class, so there's no downside to joining the waitlist. It works surprisingly often!
Q. What happens if I need to cancel a class?
A. We have a generous cancelation policy where members can cancel up to 6 hours before the scheduled class time and the session will be returned to their account. Late cancellations and no-shows are subject to our cancellation policy.
An additional note: Classes with no reservations may be canceled up to 2 hours before the scheduled start time. Morning classes with no reservation may be canceled the night before the scheduled class. We encourage booking in advance to help ensure your preferred class stays on the schedule.
Preparing for Class
Q. What should I wear to class?
A. Wear comfortable workout clothing that allows you to move freely. Because many exercises involve a variety of body positions, we recommend fitted leggings or shorts, or wearing compression shorts under loose-fitting shorts. Grip socks are required for all classes.
Q. How early should I arrive?
A. If it's your first visit, please arrive 5 minutes before your class time so we can go over using a reformer and get you set up for class. We ask that everyone arrive on time, but if you're running late, please arrive no later than 5 minutes after that start of the class. This ensures you receive an adequate warm-up and helps minimize disruptions to the class.

Q. Will you offer additional class times?
A. We're always listening to feedback! If there's enough interest in a particular day or time, we'll often offer it as a trial class. Continued attendance determines whether it becomes a permanent part of the schedule, so your participation helps shape future offerings.
