What you can expect
What to wear
Comfortable clothes like yoga pants that have some stretch. Loose fitting clothes are fine, but pease try to avoid baggy clothes as your instructor will be looking at your alignment and posture throughout the session. Bare foot or socks with some grip on the bottom is also a good option.
A hair tie is a good idea if hair is long.

A variety of small props and apparatus are used throughout the session whether you are on the mat, reformer or stability chair. This allows for a full body workout using all planes of movement to give a comprehensive session incorporating many muscle groups. Below is a description of the main pilates equipment you will use.
