Classes will either be one-to-one or in small groups. Low repetition, low impact stretching and conditioning exercises will be taught on a mat and often no further equipment is involved. Mats tend to be provided by the teacher or venue.
If you are unable or prefer not to use a mat, check with the teacher first about any alternative techniques to help your individual needs. In specialised Pilates studios spring resistance equipment may be offered so do check when booking any class what equipment is involved.
You will need to wear clothing that you find easy to move and stretch in.
