I came here for the first time in Jan 2025…read more I scored a free trial class. I have certainly heard of the franchise before, but didn't know much about it. First timers are requested to come 30 minutes beforehand. To me that's a bit extreme/unnecessary. They should say 15min. I understand a mini orientation, but that amount of time is crazy, and a waste of time. I arrived as requested. And at first they were trying to sell me on all the benefits of joining for membership, which is understandable. They gave me a tour. They offered a locker for my things. Then they put the body monitor on me that tracks calories/Heart rate, and some other info. It's HIIT. For this class we alternated between row machine, weights, treadmill in a fast pace circuit class, with hype music. There were some obvious regulars that knew exactly what they were doing. The class wasn't too packed. I liked that the space was large Class- My teacher/coach Ciandra, checked on me during class a few times. And I tried my best, but it was tough!! The cutesy thing she did was give me a shout-out at the end of the class, and the class gave me a round of applause for completing my first one, which is nice and fosters comradery considering its a group class. After the class they tryed to sell there membership again, but I declined, since I use ClassPass. I was major sore for days after. The pro's: - the breakdown of your stats from the coach after the class from your body monitor, is helpful and interesting -large calorie burn -the circuits keep you busy, and prevent boredom The cons: -the overly frequent calls before and after your first trial class. It's too much. I saw the previous reviewer that said they got sick and tired of the harassment of calls and tried to block them but they kept calling. I understand her frustration. If they get added to classpass, I would consider returning. This location is convenient for me.

Members are allowed to bring children in strollers and toddlers on the floor, moving with the member from machine to machine. At times, the noise level is a distraction at best, with certain members and trainers being abnormally loud, showing little to no concern for general courtesy. Some members do not use lockers, leaving their clothes and gym bags scattered in the dressing area. Seriously, there are better gyms in the area.

The view of Rice University and green trees / city buildings is pretty nice while you're working out from either the cardio / weight room or the studio :) and it's never been packed when I've been. The locker rooms are simple with daily use lockers (bring your own lock!), showers, and bathrooms. They have towel service with both little towels and body towels.

I knew Brian since he had been training with my wife for years to help her gain back strength and muscle after both a back surgery and then a torn ACL. As I expected, Brian had me healed from my shoulder injury in no time, making me stronger, and then he developed a safe, dynamic strength training program that has kept me on track for 5 years!

He is highly experienced, very knowledgeable about the body and exercise physiology, and has helped me develop the strength to avoid future injury and to meet my fitness and activity goals. Brain is flexible, understanding, and reasonable while encouraging and guiding me to my goals. I have worked with him in a local studio and via FaceTime, both of which he is very adept at and well-equipped for. With his guidance, I have set up a work-out area in my home with minimal investment in resistance bands, a Step, yoga ball, and other similar gear. I highly recommend that you reach out Brian and reach your fitness goals.

He knows what he is doing, pays attention, and genuinely wants the best for his clients. THE CORE gym is clean and has plenty of parking. When the previous gym shut abruptly, Brice had us up and running in the current gym basically overnight. Amazing. He prices his services to motivate you to go 3x a week. That may sound like a lot but it creates a routine. And that's GOOD. He pushes you in a "you can do this" way but is realistic if the weight is just too much. Brice balances the sessions so that your whole body gets a workout over the week. And he is big on stretching. He works hard to plan productive sessions where your time is valued. Not much on chitchat and no "lollygagging". Heather covers on certain days of the week; she is knowledgeable as well with a dry sense of humor. I highly recommend giving them a try. Your first workout is complimentary, I think, so really what do you have to lose? Just do it. It's time.

I'm updating my review to give a more accurate explanation of my experience at Pure Body. This is…read morethe worst Pilates studio I've been to and not a good use of my money or time. I was treated rudely and with disrespect. Several people came across as arrogant. Prior to taking any sessions, I carefully described all of my injuries. I'm a 40+ year old former athlete with arthritic joints. Even after explaining my injuries, the instructor, who is also part owner, pressured me into going harder on exercises than what was suitable for me. I ultimately injured my right shoulder, and couldn't life my arm. During class the instructor was very rude. I sought medical treatment with my chiropractor, and when my symptoms did not improve I had an MRI and eventually saw my orthopedic surgeon. I was in physical therapy for 5 weeks. I also called the studio after my injury to let them know what happened. Because I had pre-paid my sessions, I was unsure if I could easily get my money back, since they were giving me a vibe as if they do not give refunds for any reason. But I think in some cases, you should issue refunds for unused money, because not every studio is a good fit for every person. I felt like I was being looked down upon. There does not seem to be clear policies in place in the event something happens, such as an injury. I was treated horribly. They are not physical therapists and are not qualified to diagnose injuries. The liability waiver excludes them from all liability if you become injured. This means that if a customer does not want to do business with you, either because they do not feel as though you are competent enough to help their specific needs, or they simply do not want to risk further injury they need to be able to end the business relationship. It is a customer's decision if they want to continue doing business with them, even if they pre-paid, especially if something bad happens. They eventually refunded me money, but I had to go back and forth for over a week, which was stressful. I think that they thought I was being dishonest. This was insulting. I've found a new studio. I'll never be back.
