How do you approach price increases with your clients?

I directly tell them that my hourly rates will be increasing by so much and give them a date at least 3 months in advance. Then I ask them if that would affect their ability to train with me and negotiate how much extra they could afford if that is the case. They really appreciate that I am willing to work with them especially if I know they are on a tight budget in the first place and really value my service enough to pay more.
