I've been taking classes at Boston Body Pilates in the Waterfront for about six weeks now, and my…read moreexperience has been overwhelmingly positive--especially thanks to Valencia, one of their instructors. She's a Black woman, and having that representation in a Pilates space genuinely matters to me. Starting where I started and seeing how far I've already come with her support has meant a lot. She remembers my name, makes me feel included rather than out of place, and gives hands-on guidance that actually helps me understand and correct my technique. It's the kind of attention that makes you want to keep showing up. From my very first day, I've also felt welcomed by Courtney, who greeted me when I walked in, and by Mallory, who's been responsive and kind over email. There's a sense of attentiveness throughout the studio that I really appreciate--especially with all the current conversations happening around inclusivity in Pilates spaces. Now, for the real talk: Communication They do say on their website that email is the best way to reach them, and they mean it. Calling is... hit or miss. I've called before and gotten no answer, and I've talked to other people who've had the same experience. So if you're looking for a quick phone response, good luck--you're better off emailing. Schedule & Space They offer classes seven days a week, with options in the morning, afternoon, and evening, which makes it easy to fit into any schedule. I'm also looking forward to exploring more of the studio, because they have different rooms with different machines and setups. Parking It's the Northend--so yes, parking is rough. You're likely paying $28+ unless you luck out with street parking. Keep that in mind when planning your trip. Location They're a bit tucked away. If you're taking a Lyft or driving, note that you can't just pull up right in front. They're located on the other side of Joe's (the restaurant). Once you figure it out, it's easy, but the first time can feel like a scavenger hunt. Other Note From time to time there's a dog in the studio, but I've never had it roaming around during class. Just something to know if you're allergic or prefer pet-free spaces. Overall, I've felt supported, included, and challenged in all the right ways. If you're considering trying Pilates--especially if you value representation, community, and instructors who actually pay attention--Boston Body Pilates Waterfront is worth checking out.

Our instructor, Julien, was fantastic -- super welcoming, patient, and helpful throughout the whole class. She made it easy to follow along, even as first-timers, and her guidance really helped us feel comfortable and confident. The space was clean and calming, and the vibe of the class was just the right mix of challenging and supportive. I'm definitely planning to come back and would highly recommend it to anyone curious about trying Pilates! 10/10 would recommend!!

I am so grateful for Endurance! I had walked by the studio for several years and, when looking in…read morethe window, was intimidated by the reformer machines, to be honest. It wasn't until I was diagnosed with breast cancer and needed a different kind of workout and a coach to help me through that I decided to try Endurance. I am soooo glad that I tried! First of all, Julie is amazing. She is highly educated in anatomy and physiology as it pertains to movement and she is an excellent communicator. Being new to Pilates, she really helped me do the movements correctly which is key in Pilates. It's easy to "cheat" but cheating doesn't get you results. Secondly, I no longer feel intimidated by the reformer. Haha. Julie made sure that I felt welcomed and comfortable from the start. Even when I was going through chemotherapy and radiation, bald, overweight, edematous, and exhausted, she made me feel welcomed. She made me feel cared-for. She tailored my workout by how I was feeling and addressed issues right on the spot, like if I noted pain in one area or another. There were so many changes going on in my body that I couldn't keep up with and Julie helped me recognize them and helped me come up with solutions. For example, she recognized certain areas of my body that needed more stretching which probably became tight from spending so much time on the couch after chemo. Now that I have finished chemo and radiation, we are working on building back up my core strength. So grateful she is my coach to encourage me through an ab work out! I have not taken a class with any of the other instructors but I understand they are highly qualified and amazing too. And from watching the end of a class, here and there, waiting for my session to begin, they are amazing! To sum it up: Don't hesitate to try! I am so glad that I did.
