A little background: I'm new to the area, and I did lagree for about 1.5 years when I lived near Arcadia. The machines there were the newer Megaformers, with black, white, and grey springs. At MDR, since they've been established longer in the South Bay, the machines are older generation, with red, orange, and yellow springs. They also have various footholds and handlebars set at different heights. Since I trained on the newer models, I'm still getting used to these older ones at MDR, and it can be a bit confusing. Sometimes I catch myself looking for footholds, or reaching for the wrong handlebar since I'm used to just one bar. That said, lagree is a fantastic full-body workout that targets your abs, legs, arms, and glutes. I still get a challenging, sweaty session every time, it is brutal in the best way. The instructors are helpful, and I don't mind the hands-on adjustments since that's how you actually learn and improve. I'm just not ready to commit to a long-term membership yet, given the South Bay pricing. Parking is plentiful in the shared underground lot.

Feels so good filling your week with classes. Used to only lift, walk, stair master, yoga. Now adding lagree the results are popping. I've gone to Tori, Bri, Caroline and Alix's classes. Everyone kills it, moves are challenging but modifications are always included. Music is fire. Obsessed! Wish I started sooner.

My new favorite class in Southbay. I love that it's only 45 minutes but I get such a great sweat-…read moreit's so efficient. Also, as a 40 year old with a baby, I've been searching everywhere for a class that not only burns and strengthens, but doesn't spike my cortisol or cause injuries. This class is exactly that. It feels safe in my body. I also love that they close class with breathwork- calming the nervous system before you go back out into the world... and lastly, CHILDCARE! The most amazing part of this studio is they have a kids lounge with the loveliest staff that I feel really good about living my little one. Thank you Barre3 for creating a space for mothers to feel strong again

My yoga practice began in 2019 while I was living in the Midwest. While there, I was lucky enough…read moreto find a studio that had so much to offer in every way (instruction style, class variety, scheduling options, studio amenities and cleanliness, easy parking, you name it--they nailed it), that I stayed hyper-loyal to them the entire time I lived there. I even did my 200 YTT training and certification with them! That place was like my second home filled with a rotation of chosen family. Once I moved back home to the South Bay, I knew I'd have a lot more options in terms of studios and styles, but that meant I would have to really shop around and play yoga tourist until I found a good fit. As much as I love yoga, I wasn't looking forward to this process. I didn't want to feel like the stranger, the noob, the clueless casual. I've now taken three classes at 423 Yoga (Yoga Sculpt with Melody, 90 Minute Vinyasa with Jill, and Hot Power with Lori), and I can say with a ton of confidence that this just might be my new home studio. Each of these amazing instructors offered an experience that was completely new to me in some way. I had a lightbulb "Aha!" moment in each class that ushered a breakthrough either in deepening a posture, activating a forgotten muscle, or releasing tension. I've taken hundreds and hundreds of classes (hot, yin, vinyasa, barre, sculpt, F.I.T., weighted yoga, etc.) and what kept me hooked into a regular practice was the daily reset that meant I might feel like Final Boss Yogi one day, and Newborn Baby Deer the next. I was surprised all the time. This type of surprise is a feature of a high quality studio with engaged instructors who don't see this as just another job. They live and breathe it, so their classes feel alive and valuable. In my opinion, Yoga should never feel overly predictable or like a snooze. The classes at 423 kept me locked in, focused, and completely in my breath and body. Class attendance has been on the smaller side, which I love. Overcrowded, loud, heated studios can be way overstimulating, and 423 doesn't feel like that at all. I want to let out a sigh of relief when I arrive, which is exactly what they delivered. The other yogis in attendance have been friendly and welcoming, which is also a plus. The variety of in-house equipment they let everyone use is impressive, and especially so since everyone does their part to actually sanitize each piece after it's used. This is SO rare! I also love that they have a big parking garage. This is such a huge plus anywhere in LA. TLDR: 423 Yoga is doing everything right, and I think I love them for it.

The teachers have their own unique flows that make a lot of sense to me. They take the time to correct postures as well due to the experienced teachers and smaller more intimate studio feel.

I recently started taking Pilates classes and discovered this new studio which has an amazing vibe!…read moreIt's such a beautiful, clean, and inviting space. I've only taken a couple classes with Milena (the owner) so far and she is so nice! I've been trying different studios, but VOID PILATES seems to be the one that I prefer since I'm always trying to plan my day around their class schedule lol. The studio also has an infrared sauna which I definitely want to try one of these days. Milena was telling us about the space, and I love her plans for the studio, so I'm super excited to have found this place. Already recommended this place to my friend and they loved it as well!

Void just opened two weeks ago and it is a great addition to the neighborhood!…read more I love the vibe here. Blue is such a soothing color, perfect for a Pilates class that takes you out of the noise and into the "void." There's reformer Pilates and a sauna available. They may expand with sound bath events and movie nights, too, which I'd be interested in attending. Milena, the owner and head instructor, is so calming and insightful. She was patient with us and gave us helpful pointers to better our form. There's a dedicated parking just next to the studio. Street parking is also available. Clean restroom in the back of the studio. I found Void on ClassPass and I'm so glad I did. I'll be coming back for more classes soon!

Hands down, Hanna Pilates is the best Pilates studio in Torrance. I've tried two other studios…read morebefore coming here, and none of them were as clean or as attentive as Hanna. The instructors really pay attention to your form and make sure you're doing every movement correctly. At the other studios, we mostly stayed on the reformer and repeated the same exercises every class. Here, they use a variety of equipment that challenges muscles I didn't even know I had. My daughter and I take semi-private lessons, and I can't recommend them enough. The instructor quickly identified the issues with our bodies and has helped us improve so much. It's honestly amazing. I'm so happy I found this hidden gem. Highly recommend!

There are quite a few teachers at this studio and your mileage may vary depending on which class you take. But if you take the time to try the different classes, you'll find an instructor you click with. I mainly book through ClassPass, no complaints there. Highly recommend this place for beginners too! Their intro classes were just the right level of challenge.

Unfortunately, this was the worst experience I've ever had at a fitness studio…read more The owner/instructor, Joyce, arrived 15 minutes late, yet the class still ran 25 minutes over the scheduled end time. Very inconsiderate. Throughout the class, Joyce was rude, dismissive, and visibly frustrated. She repeatedly rolled her eyes, singled me out, and made me feel uncomfortable and unwelcome. This was a class of only five people, four of whom were regulars, yet she repeatedly forgot my name. At one point, it became very clear that Joyce did not understand the difference between a person's natural anatomy and an injury. I clearly explained that what I was modifying for was not an injury, but simply the way my body is built and that I needed to modify accordingly. She did not listen to what I was saying and instead rolled her eyes and became upset that I hadn't disclosed my "injury." She even said, "That's why I asked at the beginning if anyone had injuries," which felt condescending and dismissive. Not every physical difference or modification is the result of an injury. Her instructions were also unclear and contradictory. She would give one instruction and then immediately change it under her breath, becoming frustrated when we didn't follow what she wanted. I've taken many fitness and Pilates classes at different studios and understand that instructors need to correct form and challenge clients. However, there is a difference between being a demanding instructor and being disrespectful and unprofessional. When I mentioned that this type of treatment is how businesses end up receiving bad reviews, she began yelling at me. I left feeling embarrassed, uncomfortable, and completely unwelcome. I would not return and would not recommend this studio to anyone looking for a positive experience with their workouts and health.

She is so knowledgeable about Pilates and how the body works in general. We always leave sore for a few days but I know my body actually got a workout instead of just rolling around on a mat.

I formerly thought anything Pilates or yoga related was boring but now I'm hooked!
