I wanted to be sure the doctor's note remained in effect for the upcoming month so I was not charged. I was told it was. However, I saw that I was charged on my account. When I called, it was my word against their's and I had nothing to fall back on. I had been so pleased with them but this interaction was not positive on their behalf. They (the GM) said it was not noted in my account that I was told the doctor's note would carry me through the new month nor that I needed a new doctor's note. I did not document to whom I spoke. So, i had to pay for a month I could not use.

This Pilates studio couldn't have opened sooner. Sure, there are nearby gyms but the sole yoga…read morestudio closed years ago and there were very limited class-based places until now. So so so glad you guys are here and welcome to the neighborhood. The studio is brand new in a brand new shopping center. The studio itself isn't too spacious, however, with only one workout space and small check in section and storage area. So there may be some congregating before and after class but it'll thin out as the studio settles down. There's also active construction going on in the other retail spaces, which generally is drowned out by the music. If you're brand new like me, definitely take the intro class. I didn't even know how to lay down nor grab the straps before class but able to follow along the reformer flow class and felt confident to try flow 1.5 and cardio sculpt by the second week!

The first time I tried barre I went in thinking it was going to be easy but it's sneakily hard working out muscles you didn't even know you can work out. I brought my fiancé in who was surprised too! The more you do it, the more you can really focus on those small muscles so every class, no matter your level, makes you stronger. There are different formats that rotate through the schedule. The instructors are very helpful in correcting form, providing alternates if needed, & motivating you. Every class is judgement free with people of all different fitness levels ranging from those extra challenges to others doing the alternates due to recovery/limitations/etc. I've also ~accidentally~ done solo classes that was still very fun, motivating, & surprisingly not as awkward as you would think it would be I think I've done the most classes with Jade, Jillian, & Leslie but all the instructors are awesome. Something that I think stands out about PBNN specifically are the staff & events. I usually just do my workout & leave but the staff always greets you & makes you feel welcome. They all take the effort to learn everyone's names & it's always nice having conversations between/after classes. They also make sure to celebrate your class milestones (i.e. 10/50/100/etc). The studio also does a good amount of events including Book Club at the barre & a variety of classes at other locations in the area, which is fun to invite friends to come with. I loved my experience at Pure Barre Newport News & am sad to be moving away but just wanted to say if you want to try it out, try it out-- you might love it! And thank you PBNN team!

The instructors with whom we work are well- educated and follow the guidelines established by ongoing assessments of our abilities, strengths, and weaknesses.

Great studio, great location, great instructor!…read more How did I find this place? Funnily enough... Yelp. I don't live locally but visit family frequently enough to want a go-to studio in Virginia Beach. I found 3 on yelp - none of which had any reviews. Chose Pilates Fitness Club solely based on the website: it was really easy to find the schedule and the class options are super convenient. Plus a prominently featured intro deal for new clients: 5 classes for $25. Worth it? Yes. I haven't tried the other studio to compare, but I'm fairly positive I made the right choice. Not intimidating at all (the other studio pretty much required you to call in advance if you were a brand new student) and awesome instructor (Chris) - whether there are 2 students or 12, he really focuses on making sure you're doing the movements correctly and makes the 50 minutes of class fly by. Proximity to the oceanfront is an added bonus.

The instructors were very good and took you through the movements and made the appropriate adjustments. They made the class fun and approachable even for beginners like me. They had a $25 for 5 classes for first time customers deal so you really don't have an excuse not to give them a try. Be warn though because you'll likely come back often. The classes are generally scheduled every hour and can be easily booked through the website. On the last day, I brought my 60 year old mother to class and Christopher took his time to work with her on the various Pilates positions. She has not even heard of Pilates and she had a great workout. This is on my to go list when I am in the area.

There was about an 8-month period where I couldn't attend (due to "life,"), so for 8 months I paid the monthly fee thinking I'd start up again at some point and 8 months I paid them and didn't use anything I was paying for. After about 8 months I decided that at that time, I probably wasn't going to go back for a while. I was out of town on a trip when I called to cancel, and they would not cancel my membership over the phone. It was a lengthy trip, so I got charged an additional 2 months for a membership simply because I was in a completely different state and they would not cancel my membership over the phone or even just send me an email cancellation option. You'd think, since we are almost in 2020, that they could figure out a way to accommodate people who need to cancel via phone or email. No. I had to wait until I returned and could physically go in to cancel - absolutely ridiculous, and I was charged for an additional 3 months because of that. It has been almost a year, and this still makes me upset. I will never go back to this studio due to what I feel was extremely poor customer service. I understand they have this noted on their webpage -- you'd better make sure you read everything before you sign up with them, is all I can say. Personally, I find it ridiculous and I'll find another yoga studio. Other than this issue, I actually enjoyed this studio and I would have highly recommended them to anyone. But after that -- I'm sorry, but I don't understand why someone can not cancel over the phone or via email. It's a bit ridiculous to require someone to personally go in and cancel, especially if they are in a completely different state. What would have happened if I had moved and forgotten to cancel? Would they just keep charging me and I would have to purchase a plane ticket solely to come and cancel my membership in person? It's almost 2020, people -- time to get into the digital age.
