  3. Explain any movement limitations: If you are returning after injury or managing a physical concern, describe it before booking and ask whether the instructor can adapt exercises appropriately.
  4. Compare session formats: Check whether the studio offers reformer classes, group training, online sessions or another format that matches how you prefer to learn and exercise.
