Tips for booking Pilates in Munich

Use Urban Sports Club, Wellhub or ClassPass

Most Munich reformer studios are on at least one of these platforms. Reformer classes usually need a higher membership tier, so check before you book.

Bring grip socks and a towel

Many Munich studios require both for reformer classes, and some will not let you on the machine without them.

Book evenings ahead

After-work classes in Schwabing and Maxvorstadt fill first. Book a few days ahead if you need a fixed time.

Start at beginner level

Even if you do mat Pilates, a beginner reformer class helps you learn the springs, straps and footbar safely.

Check the exact studio

Several brands run more than one Munich studio with similar names. Confirm the address before you set off.
