The studio is well lit and has a lot of natural lighting. You must be there early to find a parking space. The class I took was with Paige, I told her I was new and she gave me a break down of the reformer. Paige really motivated the class and kept me going when I wanted to stop for a break. She was friendly and motivating. I was shaking through the whole workout ‍ read more

BE Fit Modern Pilates - Pilates Near Me - Newport Beach, California

Newport is FILLED with pilates studios and this place lost a customer. Ownership only cares about money and absolutely does not care about you as a customer. Parking is terrible. You either get a good instructor or someone who is rude and not warm. I used to come here because of proximity to my house now I will go somewhere else thats further away for a better experience. read more

Even though this pilates studio is single-room, quite small, and tucked away in an outdoor complex, don't be fooled by the modest setting. The classes are KILLER. I've taken quite a lot of Pilates sessions in the OC/Newport area and nothing really matches BE Fit Modern Pilates! Most of the sessions will tackle all parts of the body with some focus on one area more than the others, such as legs and upper body. You'll always feel fulfilled and challenged after each session! read more

I have been to a few Pilates places around Newport and Costa Mesa and I will say this was my first time to this specific one. I was not greeted or checked in, I did it myself on the iPad. I was not asked if I had injuries or if I was new etc. (I have arthritis and a few injuries which is why I do Pilates and yoga instead of other workouts). This class was very hard for me. Definitely not good for beginners or anyone with any injuries I would say. Great for someone who is already fit and experienced with Pilates. Teacher came over and "manhandled" me a few times to get my body into the correct position but I could not do a few things because it was too painful. Even at the end of class she said "if I don't ever see you again, have a good life" LOL weird to say to everyone... Prob will stick to my other locations where I have already had good results and super kind teachers. read more

Amazing instructors!! Super cute and clean studio. I recommend rhegan and sophie's class!! :-)

Studio was clean and well lit! A hit hard to find at first bc my navigation system took me to the parking lot on the wrong side of the building. But, the instructor was motivating and constructive and the class left me with a kind of satisfied burn and ache in my muscles afterwards. read more

I have been coming to this studio for a little over a year and its easily one of the best workouts in Orange County. I love that every class is a bit different so you never get too comfortable. All of instructors are very helpful too! read more

I've always struggled finding a workout routine and sticking to it - that was until I found BeFit! I've been taking classes here since July of 2022 and recently completed my 130th class. I have the monthly unlimited pass and make it to class ~3-5x a week. Within the past three months, through a combination of healthier eating and BeFit classes, I lost 16lbs (I've been pushing myself extra hard to prepare for my October wedding). All instructors are great but I particularly enjoy taking Anika's classes - she brings great energy and "spicy" workouts that are sure to bring results! Heads up, if you plan to take a class around lunch time, arrive at least 10 minutes early to find parking, as it may be limited. read more

Solid pilates class right off 17th street - it's important to not this is NOT Lagree and instead a similar machine with different terms. Instead of the Lagree wheelbarrow, it's an ab wheel. If you're OK with the knock off, than be prepared to be jam packed (think sardines) into the room. Machines are about 10-14" apart so you and your neighbor will get very close. The location is actually *behind* normal parking so it's not on the same side as KIT coffee. You'll park and enter on the rear which I wish they said on their website as I searched for the entrance for a bit. The classes are 45 min and include abs, legs, arms and obliques. Grip socks are required and for whatever reason, I found the machines and I be extra slick so I'd recommend the socks with toe grips too! I've been 6 times and have taken from a different instructor every time so I can't speak to the individual personalities but the workouts all seem similar. Enjoy the shake! read more

Wow, amazing class with John. Walking in I was welcomed with a smile and energy giving me support and simple instruction to make me feel comfortable and ready for class. The studio is clean and well organized with spacing and proper feng shui to align body mind and soul. All the lovely ladies were focused and fit showing how awesome Pilates is in transforming any body into it's best physical shape. The class was not "easy" and I was invited to go at my own pace and rest when needed. Excellent guidance and support from the instructor and surrounding classmates. I look forward to returning very soon for another class as it was the first time I had ever truly felt my core engaged and working! The abs were shredded right from the beginning! Seriously, I've taking so many classes at so many different places and this was the first time I've used my core like this! Incredible core work. read more

I had the strangest experience taking a class BE Fit Newport Beach last week. I arrived 30 minutes early, and it was not enough time. Upon arrival the parking lot is 80% empty but every spot I can see requires a permit. The studio was locked when I arrived, but a hairdresser told me I better move my car because I'll get towed without a permit. So I had to move my car to a spot on the street, several blocks away. I guess there are some visitor spots but I only saw a couple in my walk back to the studio, and by a couple I mean two (that were taken). I was wearing clothes from work, so needed to change. The studio is nice, but there are no changing rooms and no bathrooms. The 'shared bathroom' appeared to be near the kitchen in the back of a pizza place. I waited as the men's and women's were both occupied/locked, and ultimately used the men's one because I was worried at this point about being late. There was nowhere to set your stuff down and the restroom was dirty. Next up I finally enter the studio dressed for class. The instructor was chatting with another student while I stretched on the machine. She came over when class was about to start, which generally would have been totally fine for a quick check-in, but her first question to me was 'do you have your phone'? Come to find she is asking me to download the app to sign a waiver, and get this - asserts that I cannot participate in class until I do! I responded 'what if someone doesn't have their phone? I just don't want to miss class. Do you have print outs of the waiver?' She said 'good idea'! (Indeed it is and they dont have them). Of course it takes forever to download the app with a poor connection in the studio so now I'm just bent over stretching staring at my phone for 5 minutes waiting while class is taking place. Finally I gain access and enter in all my info and do not see an option to sign a waiver. We are now well into class and the instructor is demoing all the moves. I wait patiently so as not to interrupt the class I have signed up to take. Finally she breaks to check out my app situation and says 'oh sometimes the waiver doesn't show up. We'll sort it out after class'. Oh good! Lol. I was already having a tough day and I came there to feel better. Honestly I wanted to leave but I'm glad I just took what was left of class. It was one of those surreal experiences where it just doesn't make sense what is happening. There are some serious functional flaws that I hope the owner(s) will address. I don't personally care much about the machines so long as they work, but I'll add that the springs are completely rusted over like they've been outside and the straps are faded. It's odd because the paint looks fresh with the studio logo. Some parts of the machine are aged/tarnished, and some new. I'd guess the reformers are refurbished. read more

I love BeFit and all the instructors are super helpful and friendly. The machines are newer and easier to use. The studio is very clean and organized. Parking can be a little difficult on busy days, but there are also street parking available. I'm just a little disappointed that they are limiting people who have classpass memberships. It's really hard to make a reservation and if spots become available, it's usually very last minute. The other week I attended a class and there were only 5 people in our class because they tried to open spots for their members and they limit spots for classpass members. I feel like they're possibly losing business from this. Please open more spaces for classpass members! read more

As someone who has workout ADHD, if I had to choose only 1 workout to commit to, this would be it. I love that it's full body, high-intensity, low-impact, and interesting--it doesn't get repetitive or boring! I've taken classes taught by Jonathan, Ami, Anika, and Amanda and enjoyed all of them. I particularly like that Jonathan keeps count for tempo during moves which helps me be more intentional and engage the targeted muscles effectively. The instructors are a friendly bunch and I appreciate the variety of moves and creativity in routines! There can be a learning curve with the machine and moves, so I encourage newcomers to pay attention to the instructors' cues and demos. The more classes you take, the more familiar you'll feel with the workout. Warning: you might get addicted! read more

Probably one of the worst places I've been to. I was going to arrive 10 minutes early but this place is hard to find!! Finally got there and there was no parking either... Plus they turn off their phone and lock the doors the moment class starts (really helpful for a 1st timer ). To make matters worse, the instructor's communication skills were seriously lacking, turning what could have been a decent experience into an even more challenging ordeal. I ended up being only 7 mins late, in a corner, clueless, relying on my neighbors for guidance. Save yourself the trouble - don't bother with this spot. I won't be going back. read more

Stop reading reviews and go sign up for this class!!! Just tried my first class and Whitney was a great instructor. She explained everything well - I didn't feel confused as a newbie. In the past I tried a different reformer Pilates studio and it wasn't very challenging. This class gave me a way better workout (and you can choose the level of resistance that works for you). The music was good and it was very clean & fresh inside. Whether it's your first time or you're a seasoned pro, highly recommend this studio! read more
