She is a career dancer, so it's not like other places where a fitness instructor just takes a few certification classes. Because of her experience, she is great at explaining how to move and hold your body and how to correct your form. With a maximum class size of 5 - 6, you will have as close to personal training as you can get. The space itself is also top notch. The whole gym has a luxe feel and the studio is small but airy and bright. Between the nice facilities and unique classes, they offer a lot that you won't find anywhere else.

My 5 stars are based on my experience with doing their non-training, weekday gym membership. To be…read morehonest, I'm not sure it's something they actively seek clients for, but since I live a block away and work from home it worked out well. I can tell this gym is focused on personal training and from the reviews looks like 5 stars there as well. But back to the part-time membership - worth every penny. Because they are a personal training gym, we usually always had the place to ourselves which I ended up really, really liking. When I was in fantastic shape, going to the regular gym was nothing, but when you've got some extra pounds to shed, having a nearly private space was amazing. I was concerned that because it was a personal training gym a trainer would eventually come up and try to sell me on some sessions, but that didn't happen. Unlike larger gyms I've been to! Also because they are personal training, you have just about every piece of free-weight/aerobic equipment that you could want, along with several machines - again at your disposal, no worrying about waiting for them. They also offer classes that look fun. Finally you CANNOT, I repeat cannot beat the atmosphere here. It is really cool inside, extremely clean, set-up well (2 floors), modern and the staff/owners are so friendly and pretty much mind their clients and not your presence. In conclusion, the weekday membership is not for everyone, but if you can swing it, it's worth it!

I've…read moretaken classes with 3 of the instructors (Maria, Clary, and Wendy), and each one gives a great workout. My hubz and I recently began taking Duet classes with Wendy - our masochist idea of a "date night." It's a blast! Wendy is fun, funny, and focused - she makes sure we're doing all the exercises perfectly and that the tasks are appropriate for our skill set (or lack thereof, in some cases). If you're unsure if Pilates is for you/you're a beginner/been out of it for a bit, set up a class with Wendy. I can't say enough great things about her. Anyway, go, sign-up, sweat, and enjoy!

The first time around I used their provided earbuds which were very uncomfortable. My ears are known to be small, and afterwards I was sore, so this time, I remembered my own ear bud loops for loud noises. I love how they are still offered for free because my gym anxiety is very high and I felt brave going today by myself after the free Yelp event. Really motivating and fast pace! You WILL get a good cardio workout with strength work! The bathroom was well equipped with scrunchies, deodorant, and body spray and feminine products. All bathrooms are gender neutral, and has two shower rooms. Each shower room has body wash, shampoo, and conditioner! I haven't tried it yet, but maybe I will if I needed too~ felt very inviting versus other daunting gym showers I've seen in the past. My last point is how friendly everyone is! As mentioned before, I DO enjoy the gym, but I can get easily overwhelmed by gym anxiety. I liked how the staff had such friendly smiles and were inviting but also, let us be (hopefully that makes sense). They didn't pay too much attention to me, and let me slide into the class with no "FIRST TIME FRIEND?!" Vibe other places attempt~ I felt included and in the zone right off the start. Will continue!

Stop deleting my review to try and silence me. I will keep reposting it…read more Would not recommend this place to anyone. I regret saying I took my first ever reformer Pilates class here and had the worst experience. I took Andi's class. I read her bio on the website and was excited seeing she was also a yoga instructor (yoga is a big part of my life) and very experienced. I arrived to the studio a little nervous as I'm brand new to reformer Pilates and did the class by myself. (I booked a class described as beginner friendly) I entered the building and she looked me up and down and turned away from me to go back to talking to the other 4 girls who were there for the class. They clearly all knew each other and were regulars to this class. She didn't say a single word to me. I had never been to this studio and had no idea what to do. I spotted a wall of cubbies that I walked over to, and put my stuff down. She stopped her conversation (gossiping about another Pilates instructor) to say "is this your first class" in a very annoyed, condescending tone. I said yes and she told me I needed grip socks, if I didn't have any to go bare foot. And returned back to the gossip with the other girls. This attitude / tone of voice continued as she briefly explained the reformer and walked away. I wasn't welcomed, asked for my name, asked if I needed any help, shown around the studio, nothing. I felt like a nuisance for being there. I felt like I was back in high school and this was the click of mean girls. Mid class she called me out to fix my form "Allie, is it?" Again very condescending. Yes, considering you know every other girl here, that's my name. You would know if you had welcomed me and introduced yourself. At the end of class there wasn't a single word as I quickly grabbed my things and left. Spent $40 to be treated like dog shit. Really sad that this place lives up to the "stuck up mean girl" stereotype around Pilates. Do better. It's a shame because the studio is beautiful and I would have loved to be a regular here. But this place will never get my money again. I follow their instagram and this instructor is always looking for clients to fill up her classes. You can't run a female dominated business and be a mean girl.
