As a girl who's on the heavier side, Pilates has always been intimidating. However my experience here has made me feel so welcomed and comfortable. I did my demo class with Crystal who really took the time to show me the ropes and help me know the inclusive history behind Pilates! I also did a regular class with her after to see how the information from the demo applied to a regular class and if it was a good form of exercise for me. Crystal really took the time to help me and she even gave me different exercises during the class that accommodated for my knee injury. I felt very seen, safe, and accepted. She was the one who made me want to get a membership because she was so welcoming and everything a teacher should be. I can really appreciate the management too. Though it was a brief interaction during the end of my class, they were so happy and welcoming as well. You can tell that this is a small business that really cares about what they're doing. It's always really enlightening to see. If you feel like you're nervous about Pilates because of the environment, then have no fear because everyone is welcoming here! 10/10. read more

This was such a great workout! The instructor Sue, gave very detailed instructions with every move and encouraged us to breathe along with each movement. I felt like I walked out standing a bit taller than when I went in! read more

This is the only pilates place I've ever been to, but I love it! Sue and Dianne know how to adjust depending on the level of the students (I only take beginner classes) and since the classes are small, they're able to come by and adjust you as needed. I've been doing it consistently for the past few months, and it's become a part of my weekly routine that I really cherish. Seeing and feeling my progress is exciting, even while going just once a week. I just wish they offered more beginner classes! read more

I was really excited to try this Pilates class, especially since they advertised availability through ClassPass. The studio is clean and doesn't smell musty. The machines are also in good condition. I understood they had limited availability through ClassPass and everything seemed great at first--until I mentioned that my health insurance covers ClassPass. Shortly after, instead of the limited availability, they suddenly removed the option altogether, which felt really disappointing and unprofessional. They even emailed me, saying that offering classes on ClassPass would run them out of business, which I completely understand. I know they're a small business, and with their great location and the competitive pilates world, it makes sense that classes are expensive. I only needed to take one class a week, which worked perfectly with their ClassPass schedule prior, so it was frustrating when they removed the option entirely instead of finding a middle ground. I was even considering buying classes directly from them after trying it for at least a month through ClassPass. If you're planning to use ClassPass here, just be aware with this information. While I understand their concerns as a business, I was disappointed in how management handled the situation passively aggressively. It honestly came off as greedy and not welcoming. Thankfully there's other pilates/lagree studios I've tried nearby that are much more welcoming. read more

This is my first time taking a pilates class and my friend and I enrolled in the Glutes and Abs class. This location is located on the third floor. Underground parking is available, so no need to struggle for parking. H Mart is also conveniently located inside this mall. There are only 7 reformer machines so the experience felt almost like a private class. Next door they also offer private sessions. Kali was our instructor and she was helpful and patient in helping everyone. There were a couple people in the class that was also their first time and she really made us not feel lost and welcomed. There was also a good playlist of songs and the music wasn't too loud. The workout was great and by the end of class my legs and abs were shaking. Overall a great workout. Memberships are offered but if you have Classpass - you can find them on there as well! Enjoy! read more

I decided to try out pilates last year and found Kore through ClassPass. I ended up loving it so much that even after they were no longer available to book through there, I signed up for a membership. The instructors were patient with me as I was a complete beginner to reformer pilates. I recommend a small studio like this if you have no prior experience, as going to other bigger studios (ie. Lagree, Solidcore) right off the bat is going to be too intense. I do not receive the small group attention that I get at Kore at other studios. If I had not built a foundation here, I would have likely gotten injured in those classes. I've continued to go twice a week and Kore is my favorite part of my weekly exercise routine. I've seen both physical and mental changes alike. I feel so much stronger from when I first started. Parking is easy in their structure. Be sure to enter through the blue entrance on Mariposa for 2 hours free validation. I made a mistake my first time by parking in the other lot and had to pay about $20. My favorite instructors are Dianne and Allie. Dianne is fun, bubbly, and will kick your butt. Her classes are always different and as someone who gets bored easily, I love it. Allie is just so kind and patient- always great about correcting form. I took a lot of her classes when I was first starting out. Overall, most instructors here are solid and I've noticed they've stepped up the difficulty of the classes as the members progress, which I appreciate. If you're thinking about trying out pilates, I could not recommend Kore more! It is expensive, but it really is the best investment I've made for my health. read more

Update! Love the group classes! Having only 7 reformers even in a group setting you still get adjustments/ guidance from the instructors. Classes are available on both Class Pass & directly through the studio. ENJOY! read more

My good friend asked me to try out Pilates so I said, why not. I never tried it before so let's try it out. We took a class with Dianne and I got my assed kicked (in a good way)! I come from a Crossfit background so I figured that Pilates would be a piece of cake. Nope. There were parts of my body I never knew could be sore. The great thing about Kore Pilates is, as someone who was ignorant to think it was a woman's only exercise, there are plenty of guys that take classes too. read more

Tried my first class w Sue and loved it. Her instruction was exact and I felt my muscles quiver. Will be in class every week!

I went to The Pilates Space because I wanted to get back into shape and build core strength. Katie was so knowledgeable and has already helped me so much getting more fit and correcting my form. I already feel a big difference in my physique and strength! Katie definitely cares about each and every one of her clients, and it shows that she does each workout specifically catered to each person. I am always looking forward to our sessions. Thank you, Katie!!!! read more

Simply the best pilates studio in LA! I have been to a couple of other studios before but there is no comparison; Kore Pilates has the best instructors who can train your body accurately and safely. I learned after trying out some classes at the Kore that all the previous lessons were not quite accurate with movements and were prone to injury. Due to our age, my husband and I are taking duet lessons at the Kore (we cannot keep up with some movements in the group classes). Our instructors are Jess and Sue, and they are amazing. We feel so much improvement after two months at the Kore and most of all, we are looking forward to each lesson twice a week. The studio is so bright, clean and organized with great equipment, and the parking is a big plus. Many thanks to the owner, Katie, who runs this fabulous pilates studio professionally with such a caring heart! Highly recommend the Kore Pilates! read more

Me and my wife see Katie at Kore for private lessons twice a week and couldn't imagine life without her. Katie takes the time to understand your body and helps to strengthen and develop areas in need. The sessions can be a full blown work out at times but also deeply therapeutic and relaxing. The space is clean and well cared for and when you go in the morning/daytime there is free parking downstairs. They also validate when the parking isn't free. read more

took three classes with three different instructors--Allie Miks and another male instructor were the absolute best (sorry i forget his name) however, Sue was incredibly rude from beginning to end, and not attentive at all. her class was the worst out for the three instructors and not challenging at all. one other student who was in the same three classes with me agreed. wish i picked a different instructor. read more

I've had several Pilates instructors in the past and Katie is the most knowledgeable and caring instructor I've ever had the pleasure of taking classes with. She wants to make sure that the work out is effective and exercising the targeted muscles, not just going through the motions in her instruction. Katie takes care to be cognizant about any injuries and discomfort I might have, which is important for anyone with discs or lower back pain. My husband has joined me in my lessons and he is enjoying it as a treatment for his chronic hip pain and general physical health. I trust Katie's judgement and vision for her studio, and look forward to taking group classes with the other instructors! read more

vistied LA and wanted to do a pilates class and stumbled upon this one! i chose the all level one and it was exactly what i needed. Crystal was our instructor & she made the class fun! With some old school jams playing in the background, she engaged with all the people in the class! she made sure our moves were done right so we could get the best out of the class. highly recommended! read more

Going to Kore Pilates every week has become a routine for me like brushing teeth. I have been going to Kore Pilates for almost 2 years now and I have been recommending everyone around me to go as well. I work at office all day sitting in front of a computer so I tried yoga and other Pilates studios to make sure I stay "healthy". I was glad someone at my work referred me to Katie @ Kore Pilates and finally found place I can go routinely. It's obvious Katie instructor is very knowledgeable. She knows exactly what my goals are and what I want from her classes and helps me toward obtaining that goal. I look forward to going every week! read more

This is my first time to take Pilates in my life, and I am glad I have chosen Kore Pilates as my start point. This place is so good that everyone is kind, nice, patient, and most importantly, professional! My first guide is Hannah, she is so caring and encouraging!!! She always pay attention to my feelings during the training, and adjust for me if I feel uncomfortable. Since I had injure on my back, this kind of caring really makes me feel kind and good! Also, when I feel hard, Hannah always encouraged me! I am feel lucky to meet her and I think I have found the exercise I really like and enjoy! Really recommend!!!!!!! read more
