    How many reformers fit your studio?

    A practical planning guide: spacing per reformer, ceiling height, and typical equipment lists for rooms from 40 m² to 200 m².

    By the PilaHub sourcing team, Hong KongUpdated November 2026
    Key takeaways
    • Plan about 6–7 m² per reformer including walkways.
    • Leave about 60–90 cm between machines and a clear aisle at the foot end.
    • Allow at least about 2.4 m ceiling height for towers, 3-in-1s and Cadillacs.
    • Request a floor layout with your equipment quote.

    The rule of thumb

    A reformer frame is roughly 2.3–2.5 m long and 0.6–0.75 m wide. With space to step around it and a walkway, that works out to about 6–7 m² per reformer in a group room. Instructors also need a clear line of sight to every machine.

    Layout tips

    • Run reformers in rows with the footbar towards the instructor.
    • Keep towers and Cadillacs against a wall so frames do not block sightlines.
    • Store boxes and jump boards on wall racks to keep aisles clear.
    • Check floor load and fixing points for wall units.
