4.5 As a non-pilates person I was not expecting much of this studio, but I was pleasantly surprised! The staff was friendly, studio was cozy with ample equipment, and the instructor Francesca was wonderful. As with any chain with many locations, the quality of the individual studio and instructor 100% determines class quality. Cons- Parking is $4 there is no street parking option. The free "intro class" is a 30 min explanation of how to use the reformer, not an actual class. Good for beginners. read more

As a beginner to Pilates, I wanted to try out Club Pilates and other Pilates studios in the area to a) find a home studio, b) learn about my strengths and weaknesses, and c) find an instructor or class that fit my fitness goal. I signed up for the free Intro class, which had a nice and attentive instructor that took the time to introduce herself and ask each of us personally if we had injuries or other physical conditions to worry about when it came to the class. While I did like her as an instructor, the intro class was level 1 exercises that I found a bit too easy, and personally, I wanted to see if they offered more difficult classes that would be tailored to my fitness goals and abilities before committing. Club Pilates kindly offered to let me try a full-length level 1.5 class for free, which I deeply appreciated, but that's where I feel conflicted about my experience so far at this location. I LOVED the workout - it was physically challenging but manageable for me, and was really well balanced when it came to targeting different parts of the body. However, the instructor really wasn't the nicest (to both me and the other attendees), and I walked out in a bad mental state and not wanting to return again. I've been to two other studios with both harder and easier sessions than that day, but all the instructors I had were very kind, encouraging and gentle (not saying I need to be coddled, I swear I do appreciate a correction whenever necessary) while being extremely attentive to my physical needs and abilities without singling me out or making me feel like I was getting picked on. I also feel like the corporate nature of Club Pilates extends into how their employees (both the instructors and front desk girls) treat the attendees, as they really weren't that helpful or interactive, and just shuffled us out the door with a membership promotion flyer without really getting to know us. I do think there's perks of joining Club Pilates (lots of locations, standardized equipment) but personally, I think I'll stick to a studio that humanizes and encourages my personal journey of fitness a little more kindly. read more

I joined club Pilates two month ago and I already see a huge improvement in my strength and balance. This is the only workout that I just want to keep doing again and again. I highly recommend club Pilates. The instructors are all great and there are plenty of classes to choose from. read more

My favorite place in the whole world !! Thank you for all the great service, tide and clean place and the best instructors!!

I love this place! The instructors are great and the front desk is responsive. I was a member for many years. read more

A great studio! Gives me the opportunity to get back into shape quickly! Love pilates!

Be warned. You pay a lot of money, they never have any classes available. If you are on a waitlist, get in and don't show up they charge you $15 on top of the $160 you pay monthly. You must also go in and sign to cancel and give them 30 days notice. For what it is, it's too much of a hassle. read more

Very unprofessional general manager. Rude, curt, with no regard for the clients feelings. Unclear in her criticism definitely not constructive and extremely abrasive and abrupt. Bottom line only snobs welcome. read more

LOVE this studio!!! Great people, great classes, great environment! You have to try it!!!

I signed up for a free intro class. Then I received a text message from a random person claiming that they work for club pilate. They asked if I have experience with pilates before and ask what sparked my interest. I gave them my answer, then they asked me to make an appointment with them to provide my credit card information. I asked if I can provide my credit card information when I'm there. They said there is a $10 fee if I didn't show up for the class and didn't cancel on time. I found that very strange. If this is truly their payment policy , they can list it on their website and prompt the questions when people try to sign up. Why try to gather the information after the sign up and via phone call. The text message almost made it seem like good customer service at first, but in-fact they wanted the credit card information? I canceled the class after that. read more

The best Pilates spot on the westside of LA. Lots of options when it comes to classes, instructors and the offer a free Pilates intro class when you first sign up. I came in as someone who had never done reformer pilates and was welcomed with open arms. The intro made me feel so comfortable to come in as someone who had life changing surgery and has to modify most workouts because of my elbow. The intro gave me a great way to feel comfortable and felt even better than physical therapy! That's what my surgeon at Cedar Sinai had suggested and I started out with the flow classes at a level 1. After the first time I felt like the area of my cast and sleeve was getting properly stretched for the first time in 3 years!!! If you want physical therapy at an affordable rate come here! One month of unlimited was the same rate as one visit to my physical therapist. Management is super nice, friendly and always checks in for feedback and improvement tips. Everyone comes is super nice too and it's truly a place where you can come and feel comfortable. It's not a place where you come to show off like other Pilates studios. The age range is between 18 to 70+ and the studio is so cute! I always take pictures for my Instagram too if you're looking for something aesthetic at the same time. I love the environment and members and it makes me feel so safe since it's on the top floor at Brentwood Gardens. They validate parking and as a woman I feel safe to leave at night and go to the parking garage since there is valet and security at the building at all times. Club Pilates has been a life changing experience for me and they are the reason why I am getting certified as a pilates instructor! read more

Club Pilates - Pilates Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Predatory business practices Went to club pilates for a couple months, classes were mostly taught by college students with little experience but at least positive people with personality. Left the club and canceled my membership by phone after realizing I was still getting charged for several months, both problem. Later I canceled my credit card and then got a call from club pilates saying I wasn't paying my membership, told them what happened and they said ok but my membership was still due. I explained again that I canceled and haven't been there in over 6 months, she said "ok" and that was it. Now I get a call from a collections agency over my $25 membership fee. Absolutely disgusting how big corporations try to screw people out of their money like this. The membership model is deliberately designed to take people's money when they stop coming and forget to cancel and that's bad enough, but this is a whole new level of BS. I regret ever setting foot in this place, and you should avoid it at all costs, better pilates and better people can easily be found all over town. EDIT RESPONSE TO BUSINESS OWNER: Never received any of the forms or emails they describe in their response, and the only "notice" I ever received about their policies was the long contract they make you sign when you start, which they and everyone knows no one reads. So in summary, if you want to do pilates at the kind of place that makes you sign a contract with secret clauses about how when you cancel you have to fill out some form and give "30 days notice" (read: get nickel and dimed out of another 20 bucks because it helps their corporate office pad their income statement) then Club Pilates Brentwood is the place for you! read more

I love this place. Francesca is the best and the management work with you if you have an injury and need to freeze your account or have an emergency. I can walk here which is great. Work just gets in the way sometimes :) read more

Cool place, right off San Vicente in Brentwood. In the shopping plaza as the California Pizza. The staff is friendly and will work with you on your workout. They are open Mon-Fri 8am-6pm, Saturday 8am-5pm and Sunday 8am-2pm do you have options to get your work out on! They also sell retail from socks to workout gear. Really easy los Taino and the facilitates are kept very well. Walk in or sign up for the classes. read more

I recently moved to the area and was looking for pilates classes because that's the only thing I can do with my scoliosis. But most of the places now are doing more intense bootcamp style classes so they weren't for me. I'm glad I found club pilates because I have back pain and need to do things more slowly. I took a trial class and loved it so I signed up for unlimited pass for three months. I love that they have classes for all levels and they are so different from each other you never get bored! I have taken classes with Diane and Tara so far and they are both amazing! l've only been taking "pilates flow 1.5" for now but I can't wait to try other classes in the future! BYOB (they have water machine where you can fill your bottle) and toesox when you come in! Good luck! read more

Do not register for the online account. It is near-impossible to close the online account. There's no option to delete your credit card information and account. It tells you to contact the customer support, then they tell you they cannot help you and redirects you elsewhere. It's very scammy how they reel you into a membership and then makes it impossible to cancel the account. Not only, classes are overpriced, $35/class. It doesn't feel like you're doing any cardio workout and I think these classes are gimmicky. Best to find a different gym or class. read more

I asked for 4 classes only in 5/21- as I was traveling out of the country thereafter. Three different women claimed I had to sign a contract but that they promised it would not be a problem & they'd remove me but it was a formality. Very predatory business practices indeed as they kept charging me for 3 more months and after much going back & forth they only reimbursed me 1 month; making it sound like now I get to have x amount of classes available even after I told them I have no intention of going back after 1 of the instructors was super rude when I merely asked a question about form; & I have done Pilates & Gyrotonics way longer than she probably has! This business lacks values, principles & integrity!!! Don't get taken!!! read more

I've now been to 3 of their classes with Brieze and signed up for an unlimited membership. I've bounced between an unlimited membership at another studio and ClassPass. Since I only take Pilates classes anyway, I decided to cancel my ClassPass. Club Pilates' unlimited membership pricing was too tempting to resist. Their classes this first week have all been Level 1, which works for both those that are new to Pilates as well as those that have been doing it awhile. I still find that I get a good workout after every class. I really enjoy the jumpboard (CardioSculpt) classes and am glad it works with my schedule. I see that they list a stretch class, but don't see it on their schedule yet. Crossing my fingers it'll pop up soon. I also hope they add more class times (especially on the weekends) once they settle into their space more. Extra info: There's a parking structure for those that drive here. The studio is tucked into a corner section (next to Taiko) on the third floor. Toesox required. Small workout towels and filtered water machine also available. read more

I will add stars because I don't think 5 is enough for Club Pilates-Brentwood because of their area manager Trish. She reached out to me wanted me to try a higher level class and gave me tips on parking :) I really appreciate how thoughtful the manager was and I think that's the reason Club Pilates is so successful. They have the best people. This update because I tried the jump board 2 for the first time. The reformer/jump board was in great condition, very firm and supportive. This time the machines were all very organized and in their places so the studio looked nice and pleasant. The instructor was funny and amazing. I liked the music/her playlist. I will definitely return for more classes, highly recommend! read more

The people, the facilities, and the workout deserve 4-5 stars. And then this happened: I received a call a few days ago from a debt collections agency. They had credible information about my membership and informed me that I owed an ungodly amount dating back to March. (Hot tip: the club has been mostly closed since March because of you-know-what.) The collections poeple were rude, beyond even what I would expect for a collections agency, and unprofessional. They threatened to tank my credit rating without even a discussion about the legitimacy of their claim. I have rarely been so spooked in my life. To their credit, the Brentwood branch called me 24 hours later. They apologized and assured me that the collection was not legitimate and that I didn't owe anything. They surmised that it was a technical error at the corporate office. I don't care what it was. I go to a fitness studio for my health, not to be harassed. The idea that Club Pilates -- be it the branch or corporate -- would feed me to a predatory collections agency, contrary to my contract and to common sense, is beyond the pale. Please be wary of Club Pilates. If you go, do not sign a contract. Sorry, gang. read more

Very welcoming studio. Membership is a little expensive. Kristin seems to be the nicest one. I like that she helps to fix your postures. She pays attention to every member. read more

My favorite classes are taught by, in no particular order: Dianne Kwon - She delivers tough classes with a smile and a laugh. It sounds sadistic, and hey sometimes it feels like it, but you will forgive it when you feel yourself getting stronger. I like her reformer (2 and 2.5) and cardio classes. Kristin Johnson - Energetic, tough, fun and sassy. I appreciate she emphasizes on form and technique. I like her reformer (2 and 2.5), cardio, and suspend (TRX) classes. Brieze Lafferty - Dang. She has upped her game big-time. Her classes are precise. You flow from movement to movement and it's very well organized. It's also very tough. I like her reformer (2 and 2.5) and cardio classes. Colleen Farley - For an instructor who doesn't do cardio classes herself she teaches a killer cardio jump class. I've taken both her cardio and reformer classes, and love both. New to instruction but you'd never be able to tell. Looking forward to when she starts teaching higher level classes! Jessica Francis - New to the Brentwood studio but fits right in. I'm a fan of her jump and reformer classes on Mondays and Wednesdays (evenings). Her classes feel like they've been precision planned, with little to no break between movements. I like it that way so don't change! All the above instructors offer different options of difficulty for each movement. My suggestion would be to start with the easiest spring option to perfect your form before you move on to the more difficult spring options. Otherwise you're on more difficult springs but your form is crap -- and that actually is easier as the form is what makes certain movements more difficult! read more

I went to the introductory class, which was good. I then bought a package of private sessions for $270. The customer service at this location was horrible. I could not get a response to my texts to schedule my sessions. I had to call and leave a nasty message, then got a response. They didn't seem to have anyone to provide the services I purchased. It was WEEKS waiting to schedule. Ultimately, I got an appointment, but had to reschedule due to an injury, then I couldn't get another session scheduled. Ultimately, I asked for a refund. Very disorganized. Unresponsive front desk. Not going back. I'll go to the West LA location instead. read more

I left this studio. I gave notice. I paid more than required. I gave notice in person. I gave notice in writing. Yet they still email me and asking for money. I've emailed and called several times now. I have over paid a month but they won't send that money back. Of course they tell me I've been taken off their emails. And again I get more emails saying I'm overdue. Seriously, get it together. read more

My membership ended in August and I have not been since. I continued to be billed on a monthly basis and had to contest the charges with my credit card company. I have had several conversations with staff over this and emailed several times as well. Now I am receiving emails informing me that my account is "past due." read more

I have to update this review because I've been diligently going to classes ever since my last review and I continue to be challenged while improving my form and strength as well as really toning up. In the short time I have been practicing Pilates I have advanced to levels 1.5 and 2. I've made some lovely friends at the club too and have been buying my workout attire from here - love their selection! Try it!!! read more

I really like Club Pilates because it's fun with energetic teachers energetic staff. My first class yesterday was amazing the teacher Breeze was kind enough to get me back into my positions and I feel great I'm going back today everybody should join.Easy access to club.Easy parking. .

A clean and new place with plenty of new Pilates and other equipment. They offer an one hour demo to new clients. Bring your own grip socks. Even though I bought my own regular socks I could not use, a corporate mandatory policy is grip socks. They sell them for $12, which I had to buy but almost did not and reschedule the demo class. The demo class was great. Tracey taught it. She asks before class starts, any injuries so she can give you modified instructions to you. She made sure you were doing the instructed exercise right by rotating around the room. I got a good sweat and stretch from the class. At the end, I didn't sign up for a membership 90 day period required as I am seeking packages. There is valet parking for $1. There were plenty of cubicles for your stuff. There are only 12 reformers so class size is limited. There are sanitation wipes for equipment. I would go again or revisit if there were packages in addition to membership. read more

I absolutely adore this studio. Each instructor is kind, patient and knowledgeable. I look forward to each workout read more

After retiring, I knew that I needed more movement in my daily routine, and always wanted to try Pilates. I am so happy I made the decision to commit to taking a class once a week. I love Club Pilates in Garden Grove. My body loves it, my mind loves it. Take a class with Ismael of Antonella, a couple of my favorites read more

Tara is The Best instructor! Detailed yet clear instructions! So lucky to have found such a remarkable teacher!! Love Club Pilates!! read more

LOVE it here! It doesn't feel like a chore to come to work out. The instructors here as well as the girls in the front are really warm and welcoming. Diane's classes will work every inch of your body and you will leave so happy you came. She's really fun and motivating too. Brieze is really great also -- I always leave her class with burning legs. I used to go to another studio for a year then I moved, but I thought that was a great spot. Comparing there to here, this place really is outstanding. My advice for parking is don't even try to park at a meter. It's not worth the stress, and the valet downstairs is $2 per hour if you validate. DEFINITELY come here. read more

The only reason I give this place two stars is because the instructor was nice, and the equipment is new. However, the customer service has left me in utter disbelief. My new job has made it difficult for me to arrange schedule for the more difficult 2.0 level classes. With that said, I had been going back and forth emailing with the manager regarding a cancellation of my membership. It seems as though she believed she told me I was under a three month contract. She may have. It could have easily been a misunderstanding. However, as a manager, she should demonstrate and portray professionalism with all clients. Here is one emails she wrote me: Hey Jasmine, When you signed up you were texted a four digit code to your personal cell phone you then provided to us. In doing this you authorized the signing of your contract and it is in fact still binding. This situation is quite simple, you signed a contract and now, for personal or financial reasons, you no longer want to honor the commitment you made. It's quite clear you will continue to search for any loophole you think you can create to find a way to exit your contract. For the record you were not given any mis-information or lied to in any capacity. I have every right to enforce your contract. Luckily for both of us I don't want you as a member of the club. Please sign and scan back the attached document and I will happily release you. As someone who worked in customer service, I know my boss would fire me on the spot for talking to any client in that way. They have lost my business for life. read more

These girls are amazing. I love their classes. They do a wonderful job personalizing the class to everyone's needs. The music is great and the classes are super fun and u don't even realize how hard ur working! read more

I always wanted to try pilates so I finally decided to do it because I was so unhappy with the way by body was looking. After doing pilates for 2 months I have already seen such a HUGE difference. I look great, feel great, and have so much fun doing it. The instructors are great and it is fun getting to meet different people that go here. The studio it new and clean and in a great location. I would highly recommend! read more

This is by far the best AND most affordable Pilates studio on the west side! BRIEZE LAFFERTY is the most amazing teacher - I go to her classes every day! Also love Danielle and Kristin. Haven't been to Dianne's class but heard great things. Equipment is brand new and super clean. FYI the classes have different titles so "Suspend" is TRX and "Control" is Barre. Some people are scared to do F.I.T. from the class name but it's such a great class, just more interval type stuff. If you're a beginner, don't go to Level 2 because Brieze will kick your butt! Still can't believe how little I pay for this awesome studio. P.S. If you come in the mornings before 8, you can park on the street for free! read more

I've been coming to this studio since they opened and have been loving it! Nice, clean, organized studio with lots of class options. Brieze is a fantastic instructor and I always leave energized, sore and happy :). Would highly recommend! read more

I dont know how this place gets 5 star reviews?! The stars I've given it is for the new equipments, cleanliness and the placement of the studio. Otherwise, the teacher was completely hopeless (albeit quite sweet) - how they can call themselves "Pilates teachers" is beyond me. The whole class through she never gave us any breathing direction, and barely any direction at all other than the initial instruction - I have been fortunate to have been taught classic Pilates for the past 12 years, but was looking for a studio closer to home.... Do not go here if you are looking for authentic Pilates with good teachers. You can injure yourself easily in work out classes with equipment, most especially if the teachers dont know what they are doing or dont have the best training. read more

I decided to join Club Pilates as I have a back issues that have stopped me from body building (my favorite!) for the last two years. I have struggled with weight gain as a result of not being able to workout the way I was accustomed to - and every other thing I tried would set my back off and I would be immobile for anywhere from a week to months at a time. I started physical therapy but didn't feel I was improving at all and it was costing me so much money. After resisting for 2 years I knew I had no choice but to switch to an exercise program that was low impact and would help me increase my flexibility and range of motion. So here I am - I've been coming for only two weeks but I already have increased range of motion all over and I have been able to consistently come to class (sometimes twice a day) without any back problems. I can already feel my core getting stronger, and I feel longer and lighter already. It has also helped with pain in my neck and shoulders. The customer service is excellent, the teachers are great - I love taking class with Brieze because she constantly reminds you of little things that make a big difference. The schedule and class options are great. It's all good! read more

I LOVE this place. Having owned a pilates studio I appreciate the cleanliness and the promptness of classes. Teachers are all great. No matter how awful I feel when I go in - I feel a million times better leaving. I feel as though the prices are very fair as well. Friendly clean and convenient. ENJOY ! read more
