Your First Class,
Without the Mystery
Walking into a new studio can feel like a lot. New equipment, new words, springs, straps, people who somehow already know where to put their feet. We get it. At Kor, your first class is designed to feel clear, welcoming, and doable. Your instructor will help you get familiar with the reformer, cue each movement, and offer support as you go.
Arrive Early
Plan to arrive 5 minutes before class so we can get you settled, show you the space, and introduce you to the equipment.
Wear What Moves With You
Choose fitted, comfortable clothing you can stretch, bend, and move in. Grip socks are required for class.
Expect Clear Cueing
Your instructor will explain what you need to know, demonstrate when helpful, and guide you through class.
Which Class Should I Take First?
KOR Reformer Foundations
This is where Pilates starts to make sense. Breath, alignment, control, and strength are the priority, with clear cueing, helpful demonstrations, and modifications that support your body without watering down the work.
This class is great for beginners and experienced students who want to sharpen their fundamentals, improve form, and get more out of every class.
Expect a full-body workout that sneaks up on you.
Focus Areas: Core connection, proper posture, spinal support, hip and shoulder stability, and moving better in real life.
KOR Reformer
This class builds on your foundation with more varied transitions, layered challenges, and sequences that ask for coordination, stamina, and focus.
You'll move continuously, spend less time in explanation, and start working with more balance, unilateral movement, and control.
Best for students who know the equipment and can keep moving when things get spicy.
KOR Reformer Plus
This class assumes you are already fluent in Pilates.
Expect advanced exercises, heavier springs, quicker changes, minimal cueing, and no "wait, what are we doing?" moments.
You'll work with athletic pacing, intentional mind-muscle coordination, and precision under pressure.
If you're unsure whether you belong here, you probably don't. Yet.
KOR Reformer + Tower
This class blends Reformer work with the Tower for a full-body strength experience using spring resistance from different angles.
You'll work on stability, balance, controlled strength, and a deeper understanding of how resistance supports and challenges your body.
Supportive, thoughtful, and surprisingly challenging, this class is a strong fit for students who want to build more strength within their Reformer practice.
CardioKOR Jumpboard
Cardio, but make it Pilates.
This is the closest thing to recess on the reformer. You’ll use the jumpboard for horizontal jumping, repeated patterns, and a higher-heart-rate workout that still asks for control, coordination, and core stability.
Expect fun, sweat, and more technique than you think.
This class is not appropriate if you are managing an active injury.
Questions we get
all the time
Do I need to be flexible or fit to start?
No. Pilates builds flexibility and fitness. It doesn't require them upfront. Your instructor will meet you exactly where you are and move you forward from there.
What if I've never used a reformer?
That's exactly what Foundations is for. Your instructor will walk you through the equipment, explain the setup, and guide you through every movement. Nothing is assumed.
What should I wear?
Fitted, comfortable clothing you can move in. Grip socks are required and we sell them at the studio if you need a pair. Avoid anything too loose that gets in the way when you stretch or lie down.
What if I have an injury?
Let your instructor know before class. Our instructors are trained to modify for injuries and work around limitations. If you're managing an active injury or unsure whether group class is the right fit, start with a private session first.
How is reformer different from mat Pilates?
Mat Pilates uses your body weight and the floor. Reformer Pilates uses springs, straps, and a moving carriage to add support and resistance. Most people find the reformer more accessible because the machine helps support you while you build strength.
What if I can't keep up?
You don't need to match anyone else in the room. Foundations is paced specifically for new students, with clear cueing, thoughtful modifications, and real support throughout.
Should I book a private session first?
It depends on what feels right to you. The private intro session is a great place to begin if you have specific goals, injury concerns, or want to move entirely at your own pace before joining a group class.
Are grip socks required?
Grip socks have rubberized dots on the sole that keep your feet from sliding on the reformer carriage. They're required for class, not just a suggestion. If you don't have a pair, we sell them at the studio. Any brand works as long as they have grips on the bottom.
This is WHERE IT STARTS
Three classes to understand the method, feel the difference, and decide this is yours. Or one private session built entirely around you..
