Mat Pilates uses a floor mat and body weight. Reformer Pilates uses a machine with a sliding carriage and springs. Ask which format a class uses, because price and class size often differ.
A small class lets the instructor correct your form. Ask how many people join a typical class.
Ask what the studio sells (an intro offer, a class pack or a membership), its cancellation window and its late-fee rule before you pay.
Instructor training varies from long certification programs to short courses. Ask which program the instructor completed.
With an injury, a pregnancy or a medical condition, speak to your doctor first. This page gives no medical advice.
