My previous CP review for West OP (135th and Antioch) was posted a few weeks ago, but I figured I…read morewould leave a review for the 87th street location. Up until 3 weeks ago, I was not going to renew my CP membership. I just was not getting what I needed exercise wise. I also found the instructors were too by the book and I just didn't feel like I belonged. However, after returning back to the 87th Street location changed my mind. Why? Inclusion and Respect: 9.5/10 I signed up for a 9a cardio sculpt class with Sandy. Upon entering, she greeted me so warmly! I was so surprised, but it was such a nice surprise. I instantly felt welcomed and the group I worked out with were personable and a lot of fun! Feel The Burn: 10/10 OMG Sandy is not afraid to go heavier on the tension and warms you up in no time! I instantly felt my muscles activating. The playlist was also fire! It was easy to stay engaged and motivated during her class! Staff Responsiveness: 9.5/10 Sandy is great about giving you feedback while pushing you to the max. She also checks in often with the class to make sure we are good. Her energy is unmatched! Also, emailing the staff here is great! They are pretty quick to respond and they are open to feedback! Class Availability: 8/10 Sandy and Callan are popular instructors, and they often have waitlists for their 1.5 and 2 classes. If you work full-time and have other scheduling obligations, you are going to be waitlisted. Your best bet is to schedule in advance if you can. Hopefully, they hire more instructors to teach the types of classes these two ladies do for more availability! Proof is in the Pudding: 9.5/10 I have been coming to CP consistently since last month and I am already seeing results! If you are looking to tone and sculpt, coming at least 4-5 days a week is your best bet. I started out coming twice a week, but increased to five. Do what you are comfortable with. I also recommend speaking with the class instructor for tips. Health is $$: No rating for this one - more of an opinion, but the unlimited CP membership is pretty pricey, especially when comparing other studios in the metro. It is a privilege to be able to pay for an expensive membership. I acknowledge that. This location offers perks - points and referral bonuses. A single class is $35 and if you like it well enough, it can add up quickly. Do your research into what you want out of Pilates and research various studios around the area. Staff Diversity: 8/10 Rebecca R. is a Black instructor who works at this and the OP West location. I am so happy to see and would love to see more instructors of color. Shoutout to Sandy for making me feel so welcome. It is hard to find a studio that is inclusive of Black and brown individuals. Overall: 9/10 This location is legit. The instructors are top notch: (Callan, Sandy, and Adrienne) It is always clean and the music is always good! I am happy I didn't stop my membership and I am beyond elated that I found Sandy!

They offer so many types of classes and a full range of times for those with busy and/or random schedules. The very first class I took was 3 weeks ago with Megan, and her R.I.P.P.E.D. workout kicked my ass but she knows how to keep pushing you without being pushy. I was SO SORE that next day, but I was excited to check out the different classes they had to offer and I lived to tell about it. I'm starting my 3rd week of workouts and I actually looking forward to sweating and working my ass off! It's also nice seeing that the instructors actually learn your name. There's no harm in trying it out!

The other women in classes are also very welcoming. There is adequate space. Your not squeezing all together where you would be bumping into one another. And there is such a variety of classes that you can't get bored. All in all its a hidden gem and I cannot say enough about this place. And if you are still a little skeptical they have a week trial you can do to see if they are a good fit for you

Darn me for trusting the staff with the TOS. I was told that it was only a 3 month commitment, so…read morewhen black Friday rolled around and I decided to purchase pricey home gym equipment after about my fourth month- I thought nothing of it. Of course this fine print took me by surprise so I haven't had time to read my contract, yet- but they got a new manager in, so I can imagine the one who signed me up messed up a few people. So for those of you that need the "skinny" lol: -The workouts are hot, which really does wonders for your skin but does not "burn" the calories as you might feel or think it does. (so they detox part is true, but not increased calorie burn, as they advertise) - YOU ARE COMMITTING TO ONE YEAR - The app is terribly wonky, and most of the features don't work...at all - if you are tall, you best make sure you aren't sharing a room with ANYBODY, as you won't fit facing the screen. - They want YOU to wipe everything down, which leads me to believe they never do or hopefully they sometimes do, IDK -I did mostly studio exercises- and the instructors are pretty dang annoying and seem to even talk down to you in their efforts to empower. In all, as my two stars suggest- I don't recommend Hotworx, mostly based on the $60 monthly fee

That's a pretty restrictive policy for people with busy schedules. Cute facility, but unfortunately the classes and trial policy weren't worth it for me

Adi is great! She's attentive, caring and great at motivating you to succeed.
