I had a good first time doing the mat Pilates class with Jill. I was pleasantly surprised upon…read morewalking in to see lots and lots of beautiful workout gear from various brands like Alo Yoga, Lululemon, and others. They even had a few sale racks with 30-50% off. Luckily I was able to fight the urge this time, but I may be tempted to buy something when I go back. This class was great for beginners in my opinion. I gave it 4 stars only because I like a bit more direction in my Pilates class, and although Jill was amazing and sweet, I love when an instructor is kind and encouraging but also provides corrections. I am also a fan of music during my workout classes but if you like more peace and quiet, Jill's class will be up your alley. Despite those two minor things, I am still very interested in going back!

What I found was something truly transformative. Since consistently taking classes, I feel stronger than I have in years. The method has given me back a level of mobility I thought was lost for good. The best part? I can now get down on the floor to play with my grandson and get back up with ease and without any aches. It's a freedom I didn't realize I was missing. This isn't just about fitness; it's about quality of life. I genuinely feel 10 to 15 years younger. The instructors are fantastic at providing modifications and ensuring proper form. If you're a woman over 50 wondering if this is for you, the answer is a resounding YES.

I would have loved to continue here but my budget is tight and I cannot afford even the smallest price hikes. I do understand that prices rise for good reasons and they did let me know prior to raising the price but for me the price was not justified.

Their equipment is new and in great shape and always clean. The staff is friendly and professional and their classes are led by enthusiastic instructors that really challenge me. Between the convenient location and plentiful equipment, I can get my workout in quickly and get on with my day. I was surprised by low cost of membership, which was significantly less than I expected for a boutique gym. While I would prefer later hours in the evening, that's a small criticism relative to the high quality and value I get here. Overall, I really like "The Local Workout" and recommend you give it a try.

This atmosphere, which has been cultivated by owners, staff, and area patrons, is difficult to replicate in a big-box, chain gym. Aside from the overall vibe, I like that the people at Elite are upfront with regard to their pricing. There are no guessing games. Their rates are listed on their Web site. They also offer a ten punch card so you can try out the gym before you make a commitment. Those who workout at Elite seem to be connected members of the local community. I find that the clientele is friendly, respectful, and fitness-focused. Lastly, the gym is located in a very cute area of Western Springs. There are several local businesses nearby that you can visit before or after a workout. It's also important to note that parking has never been an issue for me at Elite.
