Both Lisa, the owner and trainer, and Kristen, who is also an accomplished trainer, are very…read morefocused and detail oriented. They keep close track of which of my muscles need strengthening (following lumbar spine issues and surgery), and both create and execute a variety of approaches to help me improve my balance and my range of motion. They also provide a good mix of encouraging and pushing, thereby managing to increase my confidence that I can extend, pull, push, relax, etc. even more than I think, in the moment, I am able to do. I highly recommend this studio, especially to anyone who wants a program tailored specifically to their needs.

I rarely write reviews, however I have benefited so very much, since starting Pilates at The…read morePilates Studio of Beverly Hills, that I feel compelled to share my experience. To begin, a physician colleague and friend of mine recommended Pilates exercises to help with my migraine headache symptoms, since traditional migraine medications had become ineffective for me. I called several local studios, but was immediately impressed by the prompt pleasant response from individuals at The Pilates Studio of Beverly Hills. They were friendly, and went the extra mile to accommodate my crazy schedule. I soon discovered that Pilates movements and exercises were much more difficult than I had expected. I was truly amazed however at how much better I felt after each session. In a short time my migraine symptoms improved significantly, allowing me to stop several expensive and dangerous medications. Also, I am now seeing many adverse effects from my being on my feet and doing surgery for many years being progressively relieved and reversed. Presently, I am working with Lisa who is the owner and an instructor. Lisa is a consummate professional who is truly dedicated to helping her clients. It's rare to meet individuals like Lisa who are focused on helping clients, not just generating charges. She obviously loves what she does and has truly helped me in a way that only those who have suffered from migraine headaches can begin to appreciate. Finally, I would most highly recommend Lisa and her staff at The Pilates Studio of Beverly Hills to anyone looking for the best place to experience the many benefits of Pilates.

Stephanie created a really special workout, and her beginner's option is tough! This is not to be…read moreconfused with the bar method or mat pilates. The beginner class is also difficult in a way that will signal to your body that it is capable of more. Her sense of humor and dramatic playlist make the hour-long class enjoyable. Every person in the room is usually grunting and oiy'ing with the slight adjustments that she makes to help maximize our workout. I have taken class the day after Thanksgiving and also on random weekends. The small class size makes each session feel like a personal training opportunity. The Barboza Method makes me re-think my posture and movements in everyday life, especially as I am mostly sitting at a desk during work hours. Oh, the violations to our bodies when we are constantly on devices and crouched forward! (Insert crying emoji here.) I am excited to re-train mine so that I can age better over time. Another observation is that the class is challenging even for the seasoned fitness fanatic so don't think you'll breeze on by, even if you do megaformer/solidcore or crossfit/F45 frequently. Some of the clients have legit hard bodies next to my softer and noodle-ly self, yet they're sweating in solidarity and you can tell it's not easy for anyone. The studio culture is non-judgemental so I feel like a rockstar afterwards (in a OMG-I-didn't-die way) even though I still look like a donut. Try it at least once so that you can open your eyes to a unique treatment for your muscles and alignment. It's both torturous and nourishing, and different from anything you can find at other studios or at standard gyms. You can find Stephanie on ClassPass or pay for individual classes or packs. The credits or $ are worth it. Some logistics: Parking is via meter or side-streets. Watch the signs. One of my classmates said there is also free valet during some evenings but I haven't tried this option. The studio has storage cubbies but they're not locked, so I recommend leaving your valuables in the car. Seriously, you won't need your phone anyway. Barboza Method is right next to the restaurant Horses, and you have to walk down a short alley into the adjacent backyard to access the door. It's not creepy. If you are early to class, take your time walking toward the studio. There is something about the discovery, a-la Great Expectations, and that soundtrack song by Mono rings in my head. This daydream is truly short-lived because you'll need all your concentration for class.

Together they make such an amazing team and create such a welcoming, encouraging environment. I always actually look forward to my sessions and leave feeling stronger and more confident every time.

I've been practicing with Andrea for about a year and she has changed my life!

In fact, she worked with me through a major foot injury, allowing me to be strong and ready when I received the green light to walk again. In a city where there is no shortage of Pilates teachers, I strongly believe Andrea's techniques, knowledge and understanding make her one of the best, if not the best. Seldom have I been able to recommend someone without reservation.

From the moment I met Andrea, I knew she was exactly what I needed to feel comfortable and safe while trying something I felt so uneasy about.

Thanks, Andrea for your continuous ability to be a rock star instructor!

Every time I walk by a window reflection or mirror, I cannot help but check out my derriere and it's all thanks to Terri's amazing one-on-one training. I found Terri by simply GOOGLING (thank you Mr. Google for finding me the best Pilates instructor out there) "pilates" in LA, after being rather unsatisfied with my previous private instructor (SUCKAGIA!). The second I saw Terri's INCREDIBLY affordable prices, I had to give her a call... My eyes seriously almost fell out of my head... The prices are THAT GOOD! When she picked up the phone, I knew she was going to help me achieve a better body than Giselle Bundchen - EAT YOUR HEART OUT Victoria's Secret! The first session I had with Terri, I could tell this was a match made in heaven. She is not only extremely down to earth and fun to chat with but she also truly wants to give you the best work out so you can achieve the ass... abs... glutes... arms... (you get the picture) that you're craving! So stop flipping through the pages of that Self, Fitness, Vogue... Maxim... (Common, what chick DOESN'T look at that magazine, lets be honest) Thinking "man, if only I could look like that..."! Terri can make your wishes REALITY! It would REALLY be a mistake NOT to call her. PS: In the past few weeks, I have gotten innumerable amounts of compliments on my toned body... Considering I basically act like a chicken with its head cut off when it comes to doing Pilates, Terri OBVIOUSLY knows what she is doing!

I have always been an active person - playing tennis & racquet ball during high school. Running & spinning throughout college but when I met Terri I had honestly abandoned my earlier active self and was quite out of shape. Terri helped me to get back into shape through Pilates. When I first met her I could hardly lift my head to do a sit up. Now I can do the 100 series with ease, the five series with ab strength to spare and have improved my core strength tremendously. Moreover, Terri has inspired me to train for a half marathon and overall revamp my well being & fitness routine. Terri is honestly the best trainer I have come across in my life & I promise I have had many! If you are looking for a non-judgmental & inspiring person to help sculpt you into the best shape possible then Terri is your girl! You will not be disappointed!
