The equipment is falling apart (rubber coming off of the weights, straps becoming stringy). I attend multiple times per week and have enjoyed up until recently. Also, the majority of the instructors are wonderful. However, one in particular is mean, cruel, zeroes one person in class not to correct them but to point out in a humiliating way what they are doing wrong, and kicks people out of her classes telling them they cannot keep up or the class is too advanced for them. Unfortunately, she teaches many classes and often substitutes. Many of us are considering joining another studio. We would stay if changes could be made. We brought out concerns to the studio manager and, although she is kind and a wonderful instructor herself, has not made any changes.

My wife went in with high hopes after an enjoyable first session, but was extremely disappointed…read moreduring my second visit. Despite having already paid for a class, I was abruptly asked to leave. I was told I should seek a "Hispanic Pilates class" instead, implying I didn't belong there due to perceived race or ethnicity. This comment was not only unprofessional, but also deeply troubling. Regardless of anyone's cultural background, fitness spaces should be inclusive, welcoming, and respectful. It's especially disheartening that such outdated, discriminatory attitudes are still present today. What should have been a positive, health-centered experience quickly turned into one that left me questioning the values upheld by this establishment. I believe in treating others with dignity and fairness, and I hope this review encourages B Pilates to reflect on how they engage with and treat all clients--especially when it comes to cultural sensitivity and inclusivity.

I did manage to injure the muscles around my hip while on the reformer which lasted a few weeks. I didn't seek medical consult but imagine it was hyperextended. One observation is that there is frequent communication when this business is trying to sell classes via phone, email, text etc. However, there is zero communication when it comes to reminding customers of upcoming booked classes. I missed two 1:1 sessions (~$200). I wish there was a reminder system like ClassPass has, a less rigid cancelation policy, or at least a courtesy text with the same effort they make as when they're texting to sell.

As with each barre3 location i have personally experienced for myself, the instructors at this location are warm, welcoming, exceptional & challenging. barre3 is a beautiful, "full-body balanced workout" that boils down to a unique blend of yoga, pilates, & ballet (barre) work. i've tried alllll the boutique fitness classes & studios, genres, methods/styles etc., you name it...and barre3 is the most fulfilling, enjoyable, & challenging workout experience i've had! Don't get it twisted - each barre3 class i've ever taken has been extremely intense & difficult, but the physical, mental, & emotional health improvements & peaks are well worth it! Barre3's website describes it best, "Our innovative approach combines low-impact isometric moves, large-range cardio bursts, and mind-centering breathwork." - and for each of those details, i'm in love! the cherry on top of the barre3 sundae is that their co-founder/CEO, Sadie Lincoln, is an absolute role model, leader queen! (ProTip: she also teaches & has some of their most-killer recorded classes in their online inventory!) In addition to studio classes, they offer at-home recorded & live workouts. Their in-store merchandise is consistently a cute & comfortable selection that they rotate seasonally - they cover the typical workout leggings, tanks, tops, barre socks, etc. And, you get a 10% discount off of their retail merchandise if you have a membership with them. Price point is on par with other higher-end, boutique-style fitness studios in Austin, & more affordable if you have a monthly employee benefit for expensing & getting partial/full reimbursement for gym membership. They do offer a student, teacher, and military discount off of their membership. They offer a free first class, so grab a friend who is also new to Barre3 & go check em out !

Jenna was extremely friendly and a wonderful instructor. This was my second Pilates class, but my first at this location. She made me feel so at ease with her warm demeanor and her knowledge about the workouts. The studio itself is so clean and aesthetically pleasing with lots of light and windows in the studio. The music was at the right volume, not too loud not too soft. Parking was easy - they provide 90 min validation in the LAZ parking garage nearby. I look forward to coming back!

The pace of the class was perfect and this is the only studio that I've been to where an actual demo of the machine was provided. They also have tv screens with the moves showing what's coming up next so you don't feel lost or awkward as a first timer. I actually left sweating and feeling energized. After class each person was provided with a cold strong towel to cool down. The cool thing that sets Strong apart is that their "rowformer" has a bike attach and erg/rowing machine. The bathrooms also include a shower area and they have a separate area for cool down stretching as well! These were such nice touches! There's a parking garage attached so no stress to be had there! They provide parking validation! Right now they have a sale of 15 days (unlimited classes) for $69 which is a great deal!

I was lucky to win 5 free sessions at a raffle drawing during one of my running events. I was…read moreexcited to try it out; Shannon the representative was so friendly and welcoming. She set the tone for the positive experience I would receive. Because Strong Pilates is a little different from regular Reformer Pilates, it takes a while to get used to the vocabulary and equipment logistics and usage. I like the fact that Strong Pilates combines either a bike or rower (known as the "erg side) to the workout. The intervals on the erg side are challenging, either based on a certain calorie burn or number of meters. There are usually about 3 blocks of bike or rower: Once the first erg side workout is completed with several intervals of intense work followed by short rests, the session progresses to the strength side, utilizing the carriage and springs and sometimes free weights. This part is more like traditional reformer Pilates, but with a few differences. After attaching the carriage straps to your feet or hands, several challenging strength exercises follow. Sometimes you are standing up or planking, while pulling the carriage. The spring tension is adjustable to how strong you are feeling. I felt a little unsteady during some of the planking positions, as the carriage tended to move. But this can be corrected by adding more spring tension. I normally do lots of weight lifting/strength workouts, but Strong Pilates takes it to a new level! I definitely felt very strong (and tired) after each workout! The cold scented towels provided at the end are so refreshing...a perfect way to end the session!

First time customers get their first class for only $19 (vs. $35), so if you're interested in trying it, go for it! QUICK FACTS: - Parking? Yes, ample FREE street parking in The Grove area and garage parking is available (they'll validate for 2 hrs.)! - Reservations? Yes, you can book a class by calling or online with your account. - What to bring? Grip socks are required, a water bottle and towel are optional/as needed! The studio is new, modern, large, and such a fun vibe. There are about 16 reformers total in each class, so it's a nice sized-group. Classes are open for all levels (from beginners to pros) and have great music, easy instructions, and nice instructors. Overall, I really enjoyed this pilates class and the environment and will definitely be returning!

Options include ISO, yoga, HIIT, bike, row - all in the sauna. Or there's a very small free weight area too. You have to purchase your own sauna-approved mat and towel, so that it doesn't melt in the heat, but all of this is explained when you join. Would recommend if you like heat & small class settings!
