The space is always bright, welcoming, and full of positive energy--it truly makes me want to work out. RJ and Micaleb (forgive me if I'm misspelling her name) were fantastic. They acknowledged me right away with genuine, bright smiles, which immediately set the tone for a great class. Their warmth and professionalism really stands out and makes such a difference, especially after a long day. It was also wonderful to see that the manager , RJ is still so excited and passionate about the studio. His energy is contagious, and he is truly a delight. And I have to give a special shout-out to the instructor, Rasnaim. He made the class extra special with a challenging workout, and he somehow makes it fun at the same time. You leave feeling accomplished, stronger, and energized. The classes always leave me feeling more balanced and refreshed--both physically and mentally. Club Pilates has created an environment that is motivating, supportive, and uplifting. Highly recommend!

How they keep coming up with variations is a mystery but the instructors keep it interesting. Toni, Stephanie, and Angela are so knowledgeable!

Warm, welcoming, fun, and you feel so good after working hard.

I'm so glad that this new location opened as it is a lot closer for me than the Hancock Village…read morelocation. I love Club Pilates and have been going for over a year and am at about 170 classes. The acoustics of this location make it very hard to hear the teachers and I feel that they have to over extend their voices in order to provide a great class for us. Perhaps in the meantime, a headset with a microphone would be very helpful! I also find that the classes at this location are easier overall in comparison to the location in Hancock Village. I am hopeful that they will begin making the classes a little tougher now that they have been open for a while. I love Club Pilates and look forward to continuing to push myself and live a healthier lifestyle while they continue to grow and expand! Who knows? Maybe I'll become a teacher one day!

The coaches here truly want to see you succeed and celebrate your milestones, such as hitting 50 classes and upping your spring load. Each coach has their own style but the workouts are consistent. I'm not going to lie, the workouts are tough! I was dying Mr first class and I still feel that way from time to time. But you'll see results - strength and toned is what will happen to you if you continue to work at it and stick with it. I think you can find classes on class pass, but I book through the app since you can see your stats, plus a membership makes it more affordable.

I visited Virginia and signed up for a 2-week pass at this Solidcore location. The first week was…read morefantastic -- coaches Uriah Johnson (Head Coach & Community Manager), Krishna Pate, and Nathan Eldering were all amazing. They listened to my wrist injury (doctor's orders: no exercises on my hands), made thoughtful modifications, and ensured I still got a great workout. Unfortunately, my last class on July 22 with Erik Payne was a very different experience. From the start, his tone felt curt and dismissive when I explained my injury. He adjusted my setup in a way that made my modifications harder, and when I tried to get his attention, his responses felt snappy rather than supportive. Even after reminding him multiple times about my limitation, he continued to suggest exercises I couldn't do, and when I chose safe alternatives, he questioned me sharply in front of others. I became so uncomfortable that I left the class early and decided not to return for the remainder of my pass. It's disappointing because the other coaches were fantastic and truly made me feel welcomed and cared for. I hope this feedback helps ensure all clients -- especially those with injuries -- receive the same level of understanding and support.

TLDR--I have taken great classes and am sure this is a great spot for some people, but I would not…read morerecommend it to my poc friends. I relocated here from another city, where I took lessons in classic pilates, and was originally suspicious of the painfully curated Instagram aesthetic of this place that makes it feel more like late capitalism hot girl scam than actual serious pilates (which would more successfully turn you into the scam lol), but had a really wonderful time in a series of group classes this past summer with an instructor whom I believe only works there over the summer. With that being said, after a while of life just being busy / getting in the way, I wanted to restart with classes here. . .and oh boy was that a learning experience. This studio offers 0 flexibility and grace for life stuff that happens --such as missing a class (which happened once, that I just sucked up) or arriving more than 5 minutes late ( I was 10-15 min late), which happened today and I am like :o wtf at. The front desk was polite and apologetic--I understand they just have to follow the rules. The studio's overall mode of reasoning and their delivery is-white woman. If you are a poc you understand exactly what I'm talking about. First off, this space is is incredibly white--I've never felt fully comfortable here but there's limited options around here and I'm just trying to exercise rather than feel fully safe in a place (a fantasy!). I said it was feeling racist and she said she can't help the way she looks (which is true) but girlllllll I also can't help the way I look--and I would totally choose to look more like her if it meant I'd potentially get offered to take the other class that was starting at the time I arrived [broken heart emoji] Anyway, she kept iterating that this was policy that they had to follow (lmao the policy you have in minuscule fine print somewhere pages in? Put it in font 20 on your website front page and I won't say a word). The other reason she gave is that it's for your own safety, that if you come after stretching it's dangerous if you go straight into exercise (which means if you exercise and hurt yourself we don't want liability). This was infuriating because 1) the instructors (other than the one I had this summer) do not actually correct alignment / posture and just go through the motions of the movements while looking aesthetic in a matching exercise outfit, so I'm not sure if there is any actual safety to begin with and 2) Would they have been more accommodating if I looked more like them and / or the Daughters of the Confederacy? Very uncertain! This person I was speaking to was definitely uncomfortable / not sure how to deal with me, but then, while she was gone, I talked to the second front desk who had been staring at the convo the whole time and this is where it gets more fun. I asked if the person who owns the space is around and she said no (btw, am I becoming a speak to your manager kind of person? oh boy!) This person is like fully glaring at me, and I asked if she had context on my convo, and at first she goes I didn't hear it, but then when I explained the convo she said that the first person did nothing wrong and was very nice and mannered while talking to me (which she absolutely was) and that this was policy. I explained that just because tone and manner is nice doesn't mean that the actual intent / words are kind, and said that based on this racist vibe I'm getting, I feel like I probably shouldn't come back here, and then she goes: "Good!" LOOOOOL. Ok. Good! I was definitely angry about my experience this morning but am in the process of letting it go as paying a price for a lesson learned.
