The whole aesthetic is so cute, very nostalgic 90s vibe, and the instructor brought such great energy. Everyone was super welcoming too.

Thank you for such a great class!

I'm in month 11 of working out at Newport Peach. That's a first in terms of longevity for me, so I…read morecan confidently say this place is Best in Class ... and sass! The very first time I went, I limped out and could barely move for 2 days (I was really out of shape). But I couldn't wait to go back. You can see the thought that has gone into creating this studio - from disco balls to live plants to lighting that is adjusted throughout class to create the right moods. The mural wall is the latest addition and it brought the fun factor from a 9 to a 10. The space accommodates 12-15 per class - most of the morning Peach Step classes I've taken range from 6-12, which feels just right for energy without being overwhelming. The awesome-factor continues with the instructors. They all care, they're well-trained, and they deliver sessions focused on strengthening and toning the female body. They're also queens of playlists that keep us moving and having fun! I trust them and I'm thankful for how hard they get me to work. I'd highly recommend Brittney or Reme, especially if you're checking it out for the first time. Newport Peaches come in all shapes and ages - ranging from 20s through 60s, it's a space for everyone. And that's not just a tagline, it's a real feeling among the women who work out there.

I have gone to 9 different Pilates classes/studios in the past 2 weeks and Sofia was the BEST…read morepilates instructor that I had a class with. She was soooo kind, helpful, and encouraging. Before class started, she went around to each person asking how they were, seeing what modifications they needed, and explained the reformer and class thoroughly. During the class, she communicated very detailed and was really helpful in demonstrating the different sets and techniques. After class, she went around to every person asking how the class was for them. I really appreciated how present and engaged she was with everyone! The studio was clean, cozy, and well equipped. It had a lot of reformers with towers and had all the tools needed for the workout. I did the a** and abs workout and it was great. It definitely pushed me and I just know i'm going to feel sore tomorrow! Extras- Parking is great! Right outside the studio. They are soooo welcoming as you come in! There's a shelf to put your belongings, a water station, and a bathroom. Thank you again! See you again soon :)

My first time at a Studio X and I really liked the Costa Mesa location!…read more First pro: parking is super easy and free!!! Secondly, the instructor came up to us and asked us about any modifications needed. I thought that was nice because believe it or not, not a lot of instructors take this initiative to go up to students. Sophia was really kind and helped us with our posture and form throughout the class. The machines were clean and easy to use. This was my first time using the tower and I enjoyed it! Her class flow was so good and I felt like I got a very balanced workout because we worked on everything. The beginner class is still challenging for me so it's gonna be a while before I move up a level haha. Music: it was kind of like EDM? I really liked it. And yes they have a bathroom! Surprisingly not all studios have one. I can't wait to come back again!

This little Barre studio is in the heart of Costa Mesa and has a warm homely feel to it…read more I used a Groupon for a month unlimited and it was a pretty seamless process to get my classes credited onto the Mind Body app. Contrary to other bad Yelp reviews, the booking of Groupon classes was easy and classes were available too. The barre instructor, Erika, appears sweet but her workouts are deliciously challenging! Morgan's Barre class is great too and a completely different barre style incorporating more HIIT and cardio. They offer a 'Pound' class which is a must try! It incorporates 2 x Drummer sticks and you're essentially having a jam session and rocking it out through the workout. It's a great stress reliever and recommended if you're having a bad day! I wish there were classes during the day between 10am and 5pm while my sons at school. I manage to do the 6.30am class but it's a rush in the mornings to get back and get him to school. 1 rest room, no showers. I like that they provide lockers with keys with no extra charge. There's also a key rack to hang your key during class. Free parking available.

Really cute locally owned studio. The staff is super welcoming and they even have an office dog…read more He's not allowed in the area where you workout but sometimes he'll pop his head in and it makes you smile for a minute after you'd been grimacing from workout torture. The classes are mostly Barre focused so a lot of it is standing and the instructors will definitely work you. Morgan's classes are high energy and cardio based. I always feel like I get a good workout from her. Erika's classes are also Barre but have a yoga-flow element to them. Danielle offers a Triple A (Arms, Abs, Ass) class that will tone the hell out of you and she just recently started teaching a TRX Barre workout that I haven't tried yet but will! They also hired a new girl Sam who does a Barre Bootcamp class that I've heard nothing but good things about. One thing I want to point out is that despite being in an industrial area, the studio is very clean. They have lockers for you to keep your things safe and the floors are hardwood (or laminate, I can't really tell the difference) point being that you won't walk into a hot room to the foul odor of sweaty carpet which makes this place a winner in my book.

Wow what a reformer class! It felt like a private class with only 2 other people. The view is…read moreabsolutely gorgeous and kept me motivated. There is no AC so it gets like warm Pilates- got me dripping in sweat! Lauren provided very clear instructions with options to modify or make it spicy. The moves were classic Pilates and had me SHAKING. Going down the stairs afterwards was tough. The music was soft and gave a nice vibe to the space. Body design has a water dispenser with cups and towels provided. There are also many mirrors in the space to check form and a balcony! I will absolutely be back.

It's located on the top floor of the Edwards, and seems like it's been there for quite a while. Location/view/reformers are nice and parking is free. I've been to several studios in LA for fitness classes and matt Pilates and this was my second reformer class, first time in Newport. This location had a mix of all ages, they also have private training and have a small gym setup. The instructor Lauren was so friendly and sweet and her class kicked my butt. She continued to check on me throughout class because I mentioned I had a back injury I'm rehabbing. She also checked me in initially because their receptionist was not available. I'll be back to finish out my class pack!

About 2-3 years ago I worked down the street from this location and while driving home I would…read morethink about how great it would be if a yoga studio opened up along my route home and then one day I looked over and saw the sign for Hello Yoga so I like to believe that I manifested this studio. I began attending yoga, yogalates and barre classes and trying out different instructors. I even tried the Metal Yoga and loved it! There used to be a yoga class that incorporated reiki which was awesome (Meera we miss you!) Currently my favorite classes are the sound baths with Missy. They also feature special classes every once in a while for special things like breath work etc. which are quite popular. I really like this studio because it's not one of those impersonal corporate owned places that has a generic big box feel. I hate those places because any time I have done the one free class deal to see if I like it I end up getting hounded by text messages trying to sell me a monthly membership. Hello Yoga is NOT that kind of place. They are so chill here. Hello Yoga is a woman owned small business and you can meet Debra, the owner, and take one of her classes and experience how great she is. She knows what people want and need so she offers all types of options for signing up for classes. You can choose to have a monthly membership, pay for a single class, buy a class pack or use Classpass. There's always plenty of parking in the lot in front of the studio with overflow parking available behind the studio.

This is the best yoga studio I've been to because the vibe is so chill. It's no-nonsense, no-fluff,…read morecome-as-you-are. It really feels like a "community yoga center," it's honestly so Costa Mesa. The classes are excellent. The instructors do a great job of accommodating all levels and they're super-friendly. They have a variety of class types, including barre and yogalates. It's just a great studio, and their unlimited monthly rate is an amazing deal. They even have livestreaming classes now. And their new student intro rate for your first month is only $50 at the time I'm writing this. I can't say enough good things about this place.

I am currently working out at Aura four times a week. My husband and I love to take pilates…read morereformer and pilates mat classes here. He is 6 feet tall and I am 5 feet tall. It's hard to find a sport or a workout routine that we both enjoy at the same time. We truly love taking classes together. I have been taking many classes with different pilates instructors in 2011. Del is absolutely the best pilates instructor I have ever had. Just a little back ground info for those of you who does not know Del, the owner and her studio. Del is passionate about helping people in achieving maximum fitness,wellness, and health. She insists that the class size be small, never exceeds 5 person each class. You get lots of individual attention because Del watches everyone's forms very carefully. She makes an effort to get to know each of her students so that she knows very well who has had what injuries. She would adjust the exercises accordingly. I feel safe when the instructor is so vigilant and is watching over me when I exercise. The studio is spacious and very clean. It has a big balcony right outside of the classroom. So the studio is always well lit with crisp breeze from Corona del Mar beach. I used to take classes such as cross fit, TRX, body sculpture, barre, yoga, weight training, Tabata, spin on a regular basis. The result was lower back, neck, wrist injuries that require me to rest for months before I could go back to my regular exercise routines. Now I finally find what works best for me. Pilates at Aura plus some weight training and a little cardio each week. So far I have not had any injuries this year. Hope this review is helpful.
