Frequently Asked Questions

Reformer Republic is a small hometown studio in Downtown McKinney. We offer individual and group classes for all levels of pilates with a great community vibe. We are located right on the square above Centro on the square (Louisiana St.) - Just look for the blue/turquoise door and come upstairs!

Yes!! In fact, it's a great way for you to learn about exercise and fitness! modifications are available for every fitness level. INTRO Reformer classes are required before jumping into a full reformer class regardless of previously done Pilates. Pilates is for everyBODY - do not be shy, we promise you'll enjoy!

We recommend wearing comfortable, breathable clothing that allows for a full range of movement. All of our pilates classes require grippy socks. We do have socks available for purchase ranging from $12 - $25 a pair.

All of our classes require registration in advance. It is done through our Reformer Republic Pilates app. or through the scheduling section of this website. The app is available on the Apple and Google store. 

The Schedule section of our website has a link to download the app for Android and Apple. 

If you're standing in front of 112 E. Louisiana Street, you'll see a turquoise door with the studio name on the door. We are in an above loft, typically the door stays locked unless an instructor is there already.  We suggest giving yourself 5 minutes beforehand but if there are other clients in session, we ask for you to give some privacy and wait in the cubby room. Please do not show up more than 5 minutes early so we can avoid having a cluster of 12 people trying to get in/out.

PLEASE GIVE YOURSELF ENOUGH TIME TO FIND PARKING - if the main square is busy, head behind the bike shop (Cadence)/Mellow Mushroom OR the parking lot between the Yard and Cadillac. It is about a 2 minute walk from those to the studio, the weekends are much busier than the weekdays. Please plan accordingly, not being able to find parking is not a reason to NO show.

Not a problem! We understand things come up in life and you're not always able to make it to class. You are able to cancel your reservation the same way you booked it. We have a strict 8 hour cancellation policy. You MUST cancel your reservation at least 8 hours before the start of class. This gives us time for the waitlist to be notified there is an opening in the class. That pass used to book your class will stay on your account to use for next time only IF you cancel before the 8 hour mark. Failure to cancel within the 8 hours (aka late-cancel), will result in a $15 charge but you will keep your class pass. This will be charged to the card on file. A no show will result in an automatic loss of the class pass. YOU are required to cancel yourself out of the class, a text/email/phone call does not work. YOU are responsible to do it. 

!!Please respect policy and cancel as soon as possible so someone else can hop into the class!!

It all depends on you! We'll go at your pace with specific modifications&variations for you. Since RR is an intimate small class studio - you will have the perfect amount of attention needed to perfect your Pilates game! How fast you see/feel those results you're looking for will depend on the time and effort you put in! Let's get to moving and start your pilates era! 

Our class sizes are small and intimate, which means classes can fill up fast! Join the waitlist and you will automatically be added to the class when there is a cancellation. Clients cancel all the time for various reasons, SO your chances of getting off the waitlist and into the class are high! You will receive an email notifying you if you made it into the class. 

**It's a good idea (we HIGHLY encourage) to check back on the app to see if you have been moved off the waitlist to the class list. Sometimes the email notifications aren't always seen or end up in the spam folder, so please check the app! If you are waitlisted, and later realize you cannot make the class - please remove yourself from the waitlist so the next person will be able to attend and/or you aren't automatically added later.
