There is such a wide variety of classes and levels that you can make it easy or as challenging as you like. Check out Springhouse or Blue Bell Club Pilates!

Club Pilates, Springhouse, PA…read more I was disappointed with a few of the instructors. There was some inappropriate language used, including taking the Lord's name in vain, foul language and frequent references to drinking. When I tried to cancel my membership due to not being able to book classes--most of which were full--I was told it was my responsibility to check availability before signing up. I wasn't aware that classes would fill up so quickly and that I would need to book a week or two in advance. My work schedule does not permit me to book out a week or two in advance. I've only managed to attend a few classes. Additionally, some instructors seem unprepared, while others have structured sessions. I also expected the instructors to be in better shape than their students.

So glad I decided to try out the intro class at IM=X Pilates & Fitness. The studio is super cute…read more Inside there is a lobby area if you will which then leads to the classroom which use to be a dance studio fixed with surrounding mirrors and barre. The class utilizes the Pilates Reformer machines which was very interesting to use as a first timer but I truly enjoyed it. I have only done mat pilates before at global gyms and lemme tell ya... not the same. At. All. Karen was the instructor and she was very attentive. Looking forward to my next class.

FAYE IS AMAZING!!! I rarely (if ever?) proclaim I want to give a place 6 stars, but this is one of…read morethem. Totally worth it, do yourself a favor and buy a Pilates Reformer package and just try it! Before I tried this studio: I only recently tried Pilates on the reformer while recovering from foot surgery (so I have some special needs as I rebuild muscle and get stronger). I had gone to 4 sessions at 2 other studios before this (in LA and Austin). I was liking how I could immediately start to feel the workouts tone my body, but was on the fence about how mentally engaging and motivating the sessions were (practically the same exact routine all four times), and its too expensive to be on the fence. Then I went to Faye's Art & Soul Yoga. Her classes are always a surprise because she has a slue of exercises and really mixes it up for a great full body work out - the hour flies by. I've only gone a few weeks but I haven't been to the same class twice. She plays motivating music which I found to be joyfully unique. She promotes yoga stretches in between so even though you SWEAR you'll be sore after the workout, you really aren't. And she is super sweet to boot. I wish she could move with me out to Seattle because I don't know how I'm going to find a studio I like as much as Art & Soul Yoga :(

Highly recommend PBCH! As someone who loves going fitness boutique classes, this one is hands down…read morethe most welcoming while ensuring you get an excellent workout. Not to mention, it's great for all fitness levels. The instructors suggest modifications throughout class to meet the needs of all clients. The classes never get easier but you get stronger (and become addicted so you have to come back all the time). Another aspect that sets PBCH aside are their virtual classes. Several live classes are offered throughout the day. If a client misses a class, they have access to hundreds of prerecorded classes. Times are crazy right now but PBCH is an excellent way to distract yourself for 50 minutes while you lift, tone and burn!

So excited this location has opened! I had been looking for a barre studio near me since I moved to…read moreMt Airy and stumbled upon this one just yesterday -- they opened in June. When I called with questions, Liz, the owner was incredibly helpful, after speaking with her for just a few minutes I could tell I would really like this studio. I was so pumped that I found this studio I signed up for a class immediately and had a really great workout with Corinne. Barre workouts are one of the most effective/quickest ways to tone and gain strength, I have tried several styles, and have always gone back to the Pure Barre "method." If you are looking for a studio in the Mt Airy, Chestnut Hill, Jenkintown, etc. location, this is the barre studio for you. Really looking forward to my next class!

I came to this practice a little later in life, after being introduced to Pilates by a seasoned practitioner of a slightly different style in San Francisco. When I showed her June Hines' website, she was immediately impressed and told me how lucky I was to have access to a studio of this caliber near me in the Philadelphia area. She was absolutely right. Five months in, I feel stronger, leaner, and more mentally centered. As someone with hypermobile joints and a lot of experience trying different studios over the years, I can say this is the first place where I've felt genuinely supported in my practice. There are no gimmicks--just thoughtful, skilled instruction, and a clear commitment to the integrity of the method. The studio has a welcoming, inclusive energy. It's body-positive without needing to announce it--everyone here just gets it. The community is grounded, kind, and focused on well-being through controlled movement. June Hines Pilates offers fully equipped studios, a variety of class types (from private sessions to small group mat classes), and instructors who are not only rigorously trained but also continuously learning. To put it plainly: there are plenty of studios out there where instructors hold questionable online certifications. This is the opposite. At June Hines, there's real expertise, and it makes a difference in the outcomes of your practice. Highly recommended. Signed, --extremely discerning lover of Pilates.

I also enjoyed how they don't try to sell packages and slide them down your throat. I usually avoid places like that or any salesy personnel. Really enjoyed how it's super laid back and chill and do it at your own pace. I've been lifting weights since 2018 and never thought that i could feel such stretches in my muscles during Pilates. I can say that I have grown love for Pilates. !

I have been doing pilates at LSF for a couple of months now after receiving a gift certificate from…read moreone of my daughters. I had been recovering from a herniated disc that also led to the discovery of mild scoliosis, which is not abnormal for older women, in particular. I took all of these issues to LSF and was rewarded with excellent knowledge and experience helping others like myself work back to a strong, flexible body. While I don't always love it, every instructor has been on me for positioning and form, which is key to not getting reinjured. As a pilates newbie, it's been helpful and I do not exaggerate when I say that I have been mostly pain-free since starting. My only struggle is with signing up for classes. Because they fill up very quickly, it is hard to budget because you need to sign up for a lot of classes in advance, which means you have to pay for a lot of classes at once. (They're certainly worth it and priced fairly.) I have had success with the waiting list, however, and there was only one time I did not get into the class. The silver lining of all this is that clearly people think highly of the classes/instructors and want to get in! I also appreciate that the owner/staff "hear" clients and try to make class policy changes that are sensible and not just penal. It's not easy running a small fitness business, so just them being there as a resource is terrific. They play great music, everyone is super friendly and down-to-earth, and the studio is cute. Thrilled to be an LSF'r and look forward to a pain-free spring and summer unlike last year! Thanks, LSF!
