I was back in my hometown visiting Schaumburg and went to my usual workout spot nearby, F45. While…read moreI was there, I noticed Club Pilates in the same shopping center and decided to check it out for something different. Right when I walked in, I was greeted warmly by the front desk staff, which immediately made the studio feel welcoming. What stood out even more was that the instructor who was teaching that day came over and introduced herself before class when she overheard it was my first time there. That personal touch made a great first impression and helped me feel comfortable going into the class. The class itself was definitely challenging, but in a different way than what I'm used to. I normally do F45 and Solidcore, which tend to be higher energy and faster paced. Club Pilates felt more controlled and low-impact, but it still worked muscles in a really effective way. It was a great change of pace and a good reminder that slower, more intentional movements can still deliver a tough workout. Keep in mind that these classes fill up well in advance so you need to sign up. As a new visitor I was fortunate that a random spot opened up, but it seems the classes are always packed. Overall, it was a really positive experience. The studio was welcoming, the instructor was thoughtful and engaging, and the workout was both challenging and refreshing. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm visiting Schaumburg!

I was charged $20 for missing the class as the studio told classpass that I could have found them. I am in a war with classpass and my credit card. This studio is a SCAM and as an avid pilates expert who spent years in NYC doing reformer pilates, DO NOT ATTEND THIS STUDIO.

Both times everyone was pleasent and the instructor was energetic. I really like the set up, class size and course offerings. The only drawback is there are not a lot of weights or poles variety if there are more than 10 ppl. It's also pretty expensive over time. But if you are looking for great fitness options, it's a good buy.

I came here for a few months in 2021 before realizing it wasn't the space for me. I'm sure it works for some people, but I wasn't one of them. The slower, less intense classes fill up and the hot yoga classes were nice but often too fast paced for me without any talk of adjustments for different bodies or abilities. I wouldn't recommend for most people I know.

I have noticed I am much stronger and more flexible as a result and I have had less lower back pain flare ups. I usually take classes from Erin and Kailley and they are both wonderful.

Love it!!

After taking organized exercise classes for over 20 years, I changed to Move 2 years ago. Attending classes at Move has improved my overall health, strength, balance and enthusiasm for exercise as a way to focus on my physical fitness as a key factor in daily living and as I age. Move's instructors are highly trained, positive and enthusiastic toward each participant's understanding and use of Pilates for both body and mind. Class sizes are small so I always feel the instruction is focused on ensuring I get the most out of each class. I enthusiastically recommend Move Studio.

I feel like I've made improvements on my strength, flexibility, stamina and balance while thoroughly enjoying the workouts. I like the wide variety of high-quality equipment, the beautiful studio and the staff's attention to detail (murals on the wall, attractive lighting, free water, even a basket of socks you can borrow if you forget yours). Each work out is a little different -- we try new equipment, we work different muscles, we add a spring or focus on a new technique. Never boring, always personalized. Elizabeth is really nice and willing to help you work on the skills you're interested in developing at a pace and difficulty level that's perfect for your body's current level of fitness. Responding to another of the reviews, I've never had trouble with any finances when scheduling with MI Pilates, but I'm sure Elizabeth would try her best to fix the situation if it happened.

The class size is small (~12?) and the teachers are very motivating. All teachers equally assists students who need help and take the time out to learn your name. The classes are hard. I would first describe it as slow torture, lol. However, it is very effective. The class is 50 mins long and you don't even realize time is passing by. The room is kept dark/dim, the music is loud and the class is very fast-paced (active listening is a must!). I love this type of gym, but I understand it may not be for everyone. They have a lot of classes throughout the day which works well for my flexible work schedule and as a working mom. There is ample parking and the studio is clean. What are you waiting for? Me? I'm still afraid to commit to a monthly plan, but maybe one day.

This is my second CrossFit box since joining the evil empire, though I travel a great deal for work…read moreso I have dropped in on many. Justin is straight up the best CrossFit coach I have ever encountered. His knowledge base is off the charts and his patience for people like me that are still working to perfect movements is a breath of fresh air. You won't feel like an idiot if you have a higher than normal learning curve, and he knows how to push you without putting you into situations that can lead to injury. If you are a new person just starting CrossFit, you should consider yourself lucky to have him to teach you the ropes. The facility itself is friggin massive. The largest box I have ever been in and it is well organized and kept tidy. One of my principal issues with my old box was how cramped it could be with larger classes but that has never been an issue at Rise. Programming is offered 6 days a week and there is open gym and Yoga offered on Sunday. There are 3 types of classes offered including 'fitness' for beginners, 'performance' for intermediate levels, and 'competition' for the elite athletes. The programming at Rise is quite challenging and there is a much greater focus on weightlifting than my previous experience elsewhere. They do occasionally offer boot camp style classes that are basically CrossFit minus a barbell, but I would suggest to everyone to just get over this initial fear and take the normal classes. It won't be long and the barbell will feel like another appendage anyway. There is a small locker room for you to change and take a shower if you are hitting up the box before work, and the front desk offers the usual FitAid and similar products if you need a post workout pick me up. The community aspect CrossFit is noted for is alive and well at Rise. The last person finishing is just as important as the first one, and you can expect a degree of camaraderie and bonding among your classmates if you show up regularly. Overall, Rise is a great option for CrossFit for any skill level. I plan to keep coming as long as they will have me.
