Cardio Sculpt Class Review, Monday Nov 10 at 3:30 PM** I took a Cardio Sculpt class today at BodyRok's Polk Street location, and I have to say--this substitute instructor was *fantastic*. From the first few minutes, my heart rate was up and the sweat was real. The cardio was sustained all the way through, and the sculpting was no joke--I felt the burn in my core, arms, and legs. This class delivered exactly what it promised: high-intensity sculpting with nonstop movement. What really impressed me was the instructor's attention to detail and care. Early in the class, she noticed that I and the person next to me had done an exercise on the wrong side of the body. Not only did she flag it in the moment, but later--when we repeated the move--she *remembered* and reminded us to switch sides. That kind of attentiveness is rare and deeply appreciated. She also walked the room consistently, checking form and making sure everyone was moving safely and correctly. Her cues were clear, her energy was motivating, and she kept us informed throughout: how many sets were left, how much time remained, and how hard we should be pushing. That structure helped me stay focused and push harder, especially in the second half of class when fatigue starts to creep in. BodyRok Polk Street continues to impress, and today's class was a reminder that even a substitute instructor can bring excellence, precision, and care. I left feeling strong, sweaty, and grateful. read more

Edit: knocked off a star for their cell phone policy. I find it distracting when so many people in the class use their cell phones. Also, if we take shoes off outside the studio room by the lockers, shouldn't instructors do the same? I came here pre-pandemic with Classpass and enjoyed it. Only recently have I begun doing pilates again and exploring different studios. I've tried X'Core and Core40 and Bodyrok is my favorite. I like the studio--it's light and airy. I think the studio is more welcoming and larger. I like how there are 2 rows of machines--I think it's more communal. The women who go to this studio are more diverse in terms of bodies and ethnicities than other ones I've been to. Also, there are more men in these classes (usually partners of women also taking the class, but still.) So far, I've taken Guns n Buns with Meghan, Cardio Sculpt, and multiple classes with Mackey. They all kicked my butt (in a very good way)! I liked the instructors and thought they were very helpful, encouraging, and supportive. They pushed me more than the instructors at the other studios, where I left not sweaty and not sore. In both Bodyrok classes, I had to use modifications and could feel myself be sore within the first half of the class (complimentary.) I got a membership here and will be back! read more

0 Stars would be my preferred choice The phone number listed doesn't exist because the studio doesn't have a phone per their staff There are expirations for packages that are not mentioned PRIOR to buying through the app, only on the receipt after purchase so it is easy to miss. All the packages have differing expirations but again you aren't alerted ahead of time The staff all seem very aware of the issues but don't seem interested in remedying the problem. read more

on my journey to find a pilates / lagree studio for the low energy days when I need a boost in blood circulation. I visited this studio through classpass since the only available bodyrok studios on classpass are in sf. It's super out of the way for me but I made a solo date out of the trip. I appreciated how I really felt a workout after this and felt super sculpted. it was my fourth class of the weekend. in hindsight, this was a probably not a smart idea since I almost injured myself. part of the carriage hit my shins. I don't even remember how this happened. perks - I found parking very easily on a sunday afternoon and it was free cus sunday. the street has a few boutiques and cafes to check out before or after class. colored lighting i always fun. read more

I loved this studio! Super awesome team and great instructors! Had the best class here.

For someone who has never been to Polk, this location of this studio has allowed me to not only get my workout in, but also explore the lovely boutiques that line the streets. I took the Buns & Guns class led by Julie. During this time (~12:30 PM), there was plenty of street parking and I had no trouble finding a spot only two minutes (walk) away from the studio. The moment I walked in, I was greeted and checked in. Lockers are near the front desk, and they noted that they locked the front doors during class for safety which was comforting to know. The studio itself was fairly small: two-thirds the studio was dedicated to the classroom itself, while the other third was dedicated to the lobby (front desk and lockers). I didn't mind the size, though, and didn't find it cramped. Before class, Julie was kind enough to show me the quick run down of the equipment - what straps were for what, the weight of the springs, and so on. It was quick, but it was enough to get me through the class. Especially since it was a full class; with the other students fairly close beside me, I was able to follow their movements / actions easily. During the class, she made sure to check in on everyone on their form, which is important to me: I hate doing exercises when I am unsure if my form is correct as I don't want to form the habit and have to correct it after. And boy, I FELT my core and flutes being worked out to the MAX! It felt great. After the workout, there were plenty of lovely shops and cafes to enjoy after the class. I especially enjoyed the One Half store across the street, and plan to visit one of the cafes another time. Overall, this was a great experience and I would go back again! I would take the class again because I definitely felt my glutes and core sore even after the first day. My note to beginners: this place is super friendly. Even as someone with no experience on the reformers, I was able to pick it up quickly, and had a lot of fun doing it. Get those gains this year! read more

Bodyrok - Inside: Class full of reformers. They are wiped down after all classes. - Pilates Near Me - San Francisco, California

Ok workout. Too much reliance on the machine instead of actually working out your body, plus it's hard on wrists and shoulders. No towels or water fountain, but they have a water bottle refill station. read more

Love coming to this studio! The instructors are so friendly, highly recommend Julie's class! Favorite way to start the day.

Such a fun way to get a workout in! I just took my first class a couple weeks ago and I am already in love! It'a a lot less intimidating than I thought it would be. It's not too difficult but it sure works muscles you never knew existed! Lol. Love the vibe of the studio and it's pretty easy to follow along! read more

My body hurts. Everything hurts. Instructors were nice. I'll be back next week. Highly recommend looking into their unlimited month for new joiners. read more

I've been coming to this location for about six months and have no plans to stop! The studio is clean, I find the classes to be challenging, and the instructors are helpful when it comes to correcting form. Julie's classes always kick my butt- I'd suggest trying her out! read more

Love BodyRok! Part of my weekly rotation and this studio is great. Everyone is super friendly, welcoming, and caters to all levels.

Space is great, very clean and spacious between each reformer. Each day has a different theme and different body part that they target, so you can absolutely go multiple times a week. They target very specific muscles and it is excellent for toning. Love the atmosphere and music as well. read more

I never thought I would give a one star review to studio I've been going for years and I love but today is the day. I have never been treated worse as a customer in the past years . I drove for 20 minutes to get to the class. I finally manage to park and get at the door at 8.32 for a class that starts at 8.30am. Door is locked. The receptionist is not there. She comes out, looks at me a the door, grabs a couple of grip socks for someone and leaves back in without leaving me in. I keep trying to get notices to get into the class but nothing. She finally comes out and says class has been given to someone else. I asked why did she grab the spot while it was still 8.32am. I keep saying that I would really want to do the class and it's unfair not to let me in. She keeps laughing and saying 'it's ok, it's ok, no class I took the class'. I am not sure why someone that works there should make fun like that or clients. Also not sure why if they came to the door, they wouldn't have my spot. This is extremely unprofessional. I hope the manager will make sure this place managed better. read more

I love BodyRok! The classes are challenging and energizing, and the upbeat music and colorful lighting adds to the experience. I've enjoyed every instructor I've taken classes with, but Julie is my favorite! read more

I'm a big fan of BodyRok and rotate my Classpass classes between BodyRok Studio among other pilates/yoga studios. This one feels fresh and super clean given that it's brand new. The teachers are all excellent - I love their energy and enthusiasm. Thus far, I've taken Ash, Caity and Molly - of whom were fantastic. They have lockers (you do not need a lock!), a restroom, a few changing rooms, as well as a water station further inside the studio and deodorant /spray/lotion. Excellent 40-minute Lagree method class! read more

Great workout--I always leave feeling super strong and dripping in sweat I'd highly recommend it if you're looking for a stronger core!

Loved the environment there! I came here for a classpass class & it was awesome! The instructors are motivating. As a first timer, I felt completely welcomed. read more

I love pilates reformer workouts and am a loyal fan of the Bodyrok brand. Although I have been consistently attending Bodyrok's Sculpt Full Body classes for 9 months now, I still find the classes challenging because it is resistance-based and can be tailored to you as you build up your strength levels over time. Another pro is that it is an effective but low impact workout, so if you have injuries, there are many modifications that can be made to accommodate you in that stage while you recover. My only reservation for this studio in particular (and the reason why I'm docking a star), is that of all the Bodyrok studios I have been to in San Francisco, this one is a bit lacking when it comes to the weekday morning classes. I have noticed that the instructor is often not cognizant of the clock and has a tendency to "over-count", meaning his one second is equivalent to an actual three seconds - which not only creates unfulfilled expectations during the workout, but it also delays class start and end times. Typically, Bodyrok classes are given 10 minutes in between to allow members to properly stretch and wipe their machines clean, However, when the start/end times are delayed, it means machines are either not fully dried by the time the next class comes in, or members from the last class are not given enough time to stretch their muscles. And since I'm speaking to weekday morning classes in particular, the delaying of class end times also means that I often miss the bus that I had intended to catch in order to get to work at a reasonable time. I love Bodyrok though, so I'm really hoping that this studio can take this into consideration to create better expectations for its members. read more

Took my first body sculpting class with Cyna this morning and WOW! I'm going to be sore tomorrow for sure. This was a great work out, and Cyna helped to make adjustments to work out the areas that I don't normally work out. She threw in challenges to make it harder, which was great to work out different areas. Looking forward to the next class, thanks Cyna! read more

One of the newest to open, BodyRok Polk delivers a consistent experience compared to the other BodyRoks. 40 minute pilates machine style workout. Many of the same SF instructors teach here at Polk, and the class quality is just as good as the FiDi one. Definitely a staple in my ClassPass rotation. The front desk people are cheery and helpful. Layout is more spacious than other locations: lockers and one changing room in the front, bathroom more changing rooms, and a powder room in the back. No showers, towels are provided, along with the small disposable plastic hair ties, basic toiletries in the powder room, tampons, etc. So far I've really like the classes I've taken with: Caity - Cueing is on point, great energy and style Julia - She is very positive, exceptionally clear instruction read more

I love the BODYROK workout and their studio on Polk is a great addition to their presence in SF. I always leave the workout feeling better than when I come in. Music is fun, the instructors are top notch and professional, and always push you to better yourself every class. Polk is one of the bigger studios; clean, bright, and inviting as always. It's closest to my house so I've started to frequent this one. If you want a great full-body workout in SF, definitely give BODYROK a try, you won't regret it. read more

Obsessed with this place! Amazing full body 40 minute workout - I've been a number of times but am always shaking for pretty much the entire class. The instructors are also very helpful and will provide corrections in your form as needed. The studio space is super clean and lockers are provided, no lock needed. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for an excellent reformer Pilates workout! read more

I love bodyrok, it's super hard at first but becomes addictive. Pilates sculpted me really quickly. This is their new location and I love it! Same great instructors as at the marina location i usually go to but brand new space. Also, they have these awesome colored lights that make the work out so much better than a studio with florescents. Highly recommend! read more

Great instructors, nice reception, amazing workout! Love how convenient the location is as well. Sign-up process is super easy. Shoutout to Morgan, I find her classes challenging but reasonable. read more

I am loving this workout! I discovered this studio with ClassPass and I am so glad I did. It is clean, the workout efficient/challenging, and the instructors are really great and supportive. The studio is inviting with a back room for changing and products for freshening up. I get a really great workout in 40 minutes, which you just can't beat. Many thanks! read more

I've been trying to get in touch with someone at this BodyRok studio for the past 7 days to ask about some classes that are missing on my account. I've called and emailed almost daily. They don't answer the phone and the outgoing message suggests that you send an email instead, which they don't respond to. This shouldn't be so difficult. read more
