What to wear to a Reformer class
Simple, practical clothing advice for Reformer Pilates, so you can focus on the class.

You don’t need special kit for Reformer Pilates. A few simple choices make the class more comfortable.
Clothes
- Fitted clothes that move with you, such as leggings or fitted shorts and a fitted top. Loose clothes can catch on the springs and straps.

- A light layer for the start of class, which you can take off as you warm up.
Feet
Ask your studio what to wear on your feet, for example grip socks, before your first class.
Hair and jewellery
Tie long hair back so it stays clear of the headrest, and leave long necklaces and loose bracelets at home or in your bag.
What the studio has
Every studio has a changing room and a hydration area, so you can come straight from work and change there.
