For your Modern Reform Pilates session, we recommend bringing the following:

Comfortable Workout Attire: Wear form-fitting, breathable clothing that allows you to move freely.

Grip Socks: These help provide stability and support on the Modern Reformer machine. If you don't have a pair, don't worry! We have them available for purchase at the studio, but note socks are required, and it is best to have grips for the extra stability and support.

Water Bottle: Stay hydrated throughout your workout. We have water refill stations available for your convenience.

Towel: Optional, but handy for a quick wipe-down after an invigorating session.

Positive Attitude: Come ready to challenge yourself and have fun!
