For a beginner, the instruction at Solidcore is more careful and I got a better workout as a result-- I wasn't scrambling all over the machines like I did at the MPX studio. As a small person, I needed some variations to make the exercises work. Although the MPX class was tiny, I had to ask for these, even though the teacher could see I was struggling. I don't think I'll go back to MPX even though they promised it "would get easier" because the quality of instrution lacked for me and I lost interest.

It's such a fun workout and the instructors are so friendly and knowledgeable. If you don't know what you're doing that's alright! Because the classes are small (10 slots) they'll adjust you til you feel the BURN. I highly recommend coming here !

All…read moreof the instructors are super friendly and helpful (without making you feel awkward if any modifications are needed). I especially recommend classes taught by Emma, Avery, Rebecca, Haleh, or Kelly, but you really can't go wrong with any of the classes! I also really like that they have a wide range of class times, since I'm able to go before or after work on weekdays, or even in the afternoon on Sundays. The only critique I have is in the super popular classes (like Kelly or Emma's on the weekends), the studio is crowded and it's difficult to move as freely as you're typically able to in classes with fewer participants. Even though those are still awesome classes, I tend to avoid those now since I feel a little squished with so many people in there. Overall, I really enjoy attending classes here, and would recommend it to anyone in the area!

I appreciate the Off Peak class pricing in this economy, and I tend to book those classes since they're cheaper.

I get a great workout and I'm noticing results - my biceps are getting more muscular as I've become more consistent in the last two months!

I can't say enough good things about Heartcore. Due to my background in traditional Pilates, I've…read morenever been a fan of megaformer studios, where I've often found an inordinate emphasis on larger muscles, making it harder for newer students to engage the core. But the slow speed of Heartcore classes forces each and every student to channel into the core, regardless of level. Additional challenge is always available for the more advanced student, and every instructor has infinite patience for the novice who needs an easier variation. Each and every instructor is extremely well-trained, as well as kind and encouraging. I've never had two sessions even remotely the same, and it's obvious that there is a good deal of thought behind the flow and series of exercises in each class. And the classes always make me work so hard!! I feel it for days after, in the most gratifying way! A special shout out to Alisa ... I was quite demoralized after my second class, but she graciously gave me one-on-one time to take me through the fundamentals. I'm so thankful to her!

I arrived about 10 minutes early, thinking I would get a quick tutorial but I did not. Of course I have seen pilates in videos before, but did not know the terms or how to use the reformer properly. I just went with the flow of class and what the instructor was saying. From time to time, she did come to correct me, but otherwise who knows if I was doing the moves correctly. It was overall a good class, would have been better if I was given a quick run down but that was not the case.

I started taking these classes in San Francisco about two months ago when my out-of-town/state/country friend was visiting SF and insisted that I take his class. I was hesitant, but finally decided that this is exactly the type of thing that is a Bay Area vibe, so when in Rome, right...? I've had mostly positive experiences at the Sun Room in San Francisco, though individual instructors will connect with different students differentially, so finding the one who best suits you is a matter of personal taste. That said, I found that my strength, flexibility, and overall sense of comfort with my body has progressed in yoga more quickly than I expected. I've been looking forward to checking out the Menlo Park location for quite some time, as it's close to my work. Last night I finally left work on time and made this happen. Firstly, the location is convenient. Right off the main street, off-street parking and plenty of it, and centrally located on the peninsula. The venue itself is clean and well-maintained, a nice combination of homey and professional. The lighting is well-done and the vibe is very comfortable. Khai's instructional style is exactly as charismatic as you would hope for a person who's new to this, as I am. He's super-friendly, welcoming, encouraging, and connected with his students. He pushes you enough without pushing you too far. In a nutshell, he's the perfect yoga instructor. I'm definitely going to integrate Khai's Wednesday night class into my rotation, going when work and other responsibilities allow. It was just a fantastic experience with friendly people in a nice environment. Check out the link if you're interested, and if it's the type of thing you'd be into, I highly encourage giving it a try.

I think my only complaint about the studio was it was a bit hard to find and the parking was not as convenient was I would like. Otherwise, I intend to go back.
