From the reviews

Being brand new to Pilates, I purchased their 3 private classes pass. I loved my experience with this place and my instructor, Amelia. Amelia is a great instructor and made each of my privates fun and customized to what I wanted to focus on. I am excited to start their group classes now. Thank you!!

I’ve been taking classes at The Reformery for about three years now, and it has truly become such a special place for me. The instructors are so kind, knowledgeable, and encouraging. They’ve created an amazing atmosphere where I actually look forward to working out (something I never thought I’d say!).

★★★★★ — Dana, Oct 2025

Heated mat Pilates has literally changed my life. I love how productive and accomplished I feel after every workout. Each class challenges me, pushes me to be better, and builds a level of discipline that’s truly unmatched. I can’t wait to try reformer classes next.

★★★★★ — Ceylamentis, Jan 2026

I had never taken a Pilates class before moving to Rochester. I was burnt out from the typical gym split and wanted to change gears, so purchased the reformer drop-in and 5 mat class package. I was hooked after my first class!

Teacher training at The Reformery Rochester

The Reformery Rochester comes up for teacher training — confirmed on their own site. If you're thinking about becoming an instructor, a few things are worth asking up front. First, which certification the program leads to — most hot-yoga trainings are Yoga Alliance registered (RYT-200 or RYT-500), and the style matters: a Bikram or hot-power lineage trains differently than a hot-vinyasa or sculpt one. Second, the schedule and prerequisites — cohorts often run in intensive weekend blocks or over several months, and many studios want you practicing regularly there first. Third, cost and payment plans, and whether tuition includes an unlimited membership for the training period. Teacher training is a real commitment of time and money, so it's worth a call or an info session before you enroll.

Your first hot yoga class at The Reformery Rochester

Nervous about your first hot class? Almost everyone is, and a good studio expects beginners to walk in the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: the room is heated, so it feels intense for the first few minutes — rest in child's pose any time you need to, no one will bat an eye. Hydrate: drink water through the day before class, not just as you arrive, and bring a bottle. What to bring: a mat and towel, water, and a change of clothes; wear something light you don't mind sweating through, and skip a heavy meal in the couple of hours beforehand. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign in and set up. It gets easier fast — most people say their third class feels completely different from their first.

Heat and intense exercise aren't right for everyone — if you're pregnant or have heart, blood-pressure, or other health concerns, check with a doctor before your first hot class.
