I recently tried a beginner aerial yoga class at Aero Joe and overall had a good experience. This…read morewas my first time trying anything like this, so I was a little nervous. The instructions said to arrive early to sign waivers and get settled, so we arrived about 25 minutes before class to change, but no one was there yet and we had to wait about 10 minutes before someone arrived. There is a parking lot on both sides of the building which made parking easy. I would also recommend wearing long sleeves so the silks don't rub under your arms, and avoiding loose fitted clothing and jewelry so nothing snags while you're in the silks. One class was $35, but they also have a deal for 3 classes for $49 which seems like a great option if you plan to go back. Once class started, I really enjoyed it. Rachel was super nice, patient, and helpful, especially for beginners. She did a great job walking us through how to use the silks and made sure everyone felt comfortable. The class was fun, different, and a great introduction to aerial yoga. I would definitely take another class again!

Barckground: When it comes to fitness, I've done it all....I've done the traditional gym route... free weights, and loooots of cardio. Heck, I've even been a personal trainer before. I've done the home workout thing... p90X, barre workouts, good stuff. I've even done CrossFit... loved it. Whereas I've enjoyed many aspects of all the aforementioned types of exercise, I've never done type of exercise that I like so well as I do Pilates, and more particularly Pilates at Studio G. Studio G specializes in classical Pilates in individual or small group setting. Genevieve, and her team have done a phenomenal job of creating a warm and welcoming vibe in the Studio where people of all fitness levels feel at home. I find it sad that one often encounters a snobby attitude towards out-of-shape people at gyms and fitness studios. Trust me, you will not encounter that type of attitude here. Positive vibes only!! If you're looking to get back in shape, like I was, or, if you're an exercise fiend and you'd like to take your workouts to the next level, I assure you, Studio G has you covered! Pilates is very scalable to practically all level of fitness. All of the instructors are highly skilled and each bring their own unique strengths and personalities to the workouts. I've been a regular of Genevieve and Ryan for quite some time and thoroughly enjoy my workouts with each of them. I highly recommend either of them!! I've also had a couple of workouts with Tish and recommend her as well. She knows her stuff!! Both of the Studio G facilities are amazing. I love the 29th Court S location for group exercise. It's such a beautiful space with tall ceilings and large mirrors. The main studio on Oxmoor Rd is a wonderful space too. There's a nice front room with a couch an ottomans to sit on while you wait for your lesson and 3 separate rooms with various types of Pilates equipment. There's also a dedicated room for active isolated stretching and myofascial release...another great offering from the Studio! As a client, I appreciate that all of the instructors are required to pass a very rigorous and lengthy training course before they can instruct at Studio G. The level of training really translates into great workouts for the client. The instructors are very adept at diagnosing how the client can improve their form etc for maximum benefit. You really get your money's worth. In addition to the initial training, the instructors often attend seminars to hone their expertise and expand their knowledge base. I also love the focus of the mind body connection in Pilates. It's easy to get caught up in the chaos of our fast paced lives. Pilates is a great way to disconnect from the stressful state so many of us live in, reconnect with our bodies, and renew our minds. Pilates requires intense concentration to properly execute the movements from our center (core) with control, precision, and flow, all while incorporating deep breathing to power and fuel the movement. To me, Pilates is in an exercise league of its own - An exercise program that focuses on mind, body and spirit, that's capable of meeting the beginner no matter where their starting point is, but also very capable of challenging even the fittest amount us. I couldn't more highly recommend Pilates at Studio G!

The owners and instructors are wonderful people and they always greet you by name. They also have a variety of classes including Barre Fusion (which is a combo of barre and yoga), yoga, circuit barre (more cardio) and ballet class (only classical ballet moves). They often have groupon specials which is great! I really like browsing in the boutique which serves as the entryway for the studio. They have workout clothes and also locally made jewelry and hair ties. Water and snacks are also available for purchase. I highly recommend taking a class (first class is free) at Grand Jete and I am sure that you will get hooked like I did!

The instructor was upbeat and encouraging without being too in your face. The studio itself is adorable. They have a mini boutique in the front with workout clothes and sticky socks. I would recommend getting the sticky socks if you are going to be a regular. I was slipping all over the carpet during planks. They have cubbies in the actual studio to hold all your belongings. At $20 per class I do feel the price is tad high in comparison to other group exercise classes. They do seem to offer Groupons occasionally though! If you're into Barre this is a great option!

I kind of assumed going in that the instructors might be partial to 1 of the exercises more then others but I have to say I was pleasantly surprised! When you are on the spin section of class you really will feel like you are in a spin class, same for Barre. The one part that I think could use some more improvement is weights. I feel like you never truly transition from barre type movements even though you do have the option to incorporate small hand weights. The main limiting factor of this is the small space they have to work with. I think if they one day move to a larger studio that they could incorporate a wider variety of weighted exercise that transition away from typical Barre movements. Overall I think its a great workout and competitively priced to the other studios around town. I'd recommend any woman try it just to shake up your normal routine a bit!
