This has been my go-to Pilates Studio since the beginning of the year and I could not be happier (or more addicted). It's been quite the journey for me sticking with one studio, but from the intimate classes, really wonderful instructors, and clean equipment -- I love coming here every week. In the 7 months I've been coming here consistently I have seen more progress in my fitness goals than ever before. Tip: After having classes with most of the instructors... Sarah O, Rachel , and Jess are stand outs to me. I personally thrive in environments where I feel welcomed, supported and pushed. I feel this every time I step into one of their classes, and the main reason why I keep coming! read more

The customer service was awful. Highly recommend going to another Los Feliz studio for options - this place is such a bad vibe. Have not experienced this kind of service in a long time. The front desk woman snickered and made faces at me - to the point she was snarky - when I tried getting their help in signing up for my first class. There read more

My go 2 Pilates studio! I love everything about this Pilate a studio, it's clean, the teachers are just so professional. I go here every week for a whole 2 1/2 months. Never leaving read more

Favorite Lagree studio ever! I lived a few blocks from here for years and would frequent it weekly via Classpass. It's easily the nicest lagree studio I've been to for various reasons: 1. The machines are all in excellent quality - they feel very luxe and they're even branded with the Morph logo. 2. They provide fresh towels, which is great because I always forget mine. 3. They have a lot of fantastic merch! Love their water bottles. 4. You get assigned a machine once you check-in and I feel like it helps the instructor keep track of your name and they really make an effort to support you throughout the class - you feel more involved. 5. The instructors are all wonderful and I feel like I'm always being challenged the most here and leave feeling like I had the best work-out. 5. The whole facility just feels very clean and luxe - I feel like I'm walking into a spa-like environment every time versus a sweaty fitness studio. The only downside is parking, which I never really had to worry about since I could walk, but on the few occasions I drove, it was a challenge so I suggest getting there 15-20 min early in case you have to hunt down a parking spot. I really hope this studio gets back on Classpass soon! I would love to incorporate Morph back into my weekly rotation. :) read more

Studio Metamorphosis - Pilates Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I'm going to start my review saying that I have been going here since 2019 (pre-pandemic) and currently have an unlimited monthly membership here where I try to go 3-5 times a week. I have referred so many friends to come here because of how great the workouts have been for my body. All of the other reviews saying how great of an exercise this is are totally right! The studios are always so clean and the machines are high-quality. Clearly I love this place enough to invest a lot of time and money into it when there are cheaper options for fitness elsewhere. With that said, there are a few things I have to note about why it only gets 3 stars from me: 1) the referral program is NON-EXISTENT. I can count at least 7 friends I've invited to try out at class and at least 4 of them bought class packs or memberships afterwards. That is so much money I've helped pump into this studio and it's a little irritating they don't have any incentive for their members to recruit and spread the word. Classes are SO expensive (most Pilates classes are) so any little bit would help. I love bringing people together and recruiting when I love something. 2) The inconsistency of the instructors - there are instructors I actively avoid because I just don't want to feel like sh*t when I workout. They're a little condescending, never call my name in class, not super encouraging if you're not the quintessential petite Pilates person (maybe it's not true but this is how I feel as someone who is 160lbs and just not long/lean). On the other hand, there are instructors where I will ONLY go to their classes because they really support and encourage the members of their classes equally and remember my name (shoutout to Sarah and Pam for consistently being so kind and giving me the best workouts!) I just don't feel the personalization here like I have with other studios who were always super nice to their monthly members. I come here to work out, and leave. Which is maybe all I should expect, but I think for the amount of $$ we spend here, there should be a more consistent atmosphere of warmth and welcoming when it comes to the members. Also pro-tip: buy your own grip socks for when you come! They are so expensive here. read more

Going to keep this short and sweet. I've been working out regularly for 15 years and I've never seen visible results as quickly as I have from this class. Don't think twice -- give it a try. But just know they aren't lying when they say 'high intensity' :')... you might need to be horizontal for awhile after. read more

This studio is truly one-of-a-kind! The instructors here are of the highest caliber and teach a very specific and intense style of Pilates that is unique to Studio Metamorphosis Each move is performed slowly to engage every single little muscle fiber (plus ones you probably didn't know you had!). The instructors put a lot of thought into creating different routines for each day so you're always mentally engaged and challenging yourself. Class goes by quickly! Having previously tried many other fitness studios, I can confidently say that there is nothing more effective and efficient than Shred classes here. I always notice results within a few weeks, and my body quickly starts to look leaner and more toned. The studio itself is modern and stylish, as well as super clean! read more

This review is basically a "love letter" to Sarah because her workouts and teaching style are why I now love pilates, even though I generally do not enjoy working out. The routines have been challenging enough that I saw results by the fifth class, but she isn't pushing you past the point that you can keep good form, and she includes mods for both added challenge on basic moves and easing up on the more difficult ones. Truly all levels can get something out of her class, but she is a godsend for a determined beginner like me. Her instructions are clear and concise which helps me get into position quickly even if I don't remember the name of the move she calls out, and she often tells you what muscle should be working hardest which helps you tweak your form intuitively. Her attitude is positive without feeling patronizing, and she is gently encouraging. I'm still finding my strength to get through a whole workout without pausing and it really DOES make a difference to hear her call your name and say "great job" when you're sweating through it. I'm just one person in a class but she makes me feel like I have an actual trainer looking out for me and helping me along. I cannot praise her enough. Thank you, Sarah! The studio itself is a pleasure to be in. It's small, well-ventilated, machines are in great condition and everyone there is really nice. All in all I'm super happy so far and I expect to continue training here for the foreseeable future. read more

This place is genuinely my happy place. I went back for the first time when they re-opened and was impressed how they not only followed CDC guidelines perfectly but how respectful the community was about social distancing, wearing a mask and gloves. I am sad that restrictions are back in place but look forward to when they open again. Truly a wonderful community! read more

I tried a couple of classes here during my short-term stay at Los Feliz. It's a cute little Lagree studio on Hillhurst sandwiched between Mustard Seed Cafe and Maru Coffee. It was clean and bright and they have lots of grip socks with and without their branding for sale so you can always grab one if you forget yours. I have tried classes with Jennifer, Pam and Amanda and they are all good and left me feeling challenged after classes. They provide sweat towel and has a water dispenser. If you are looking for a new Lagree studio to try out near Los Feliz, definitely give this one a shot! read more

Great studio with competent, challenging trainers and workouts. Grippy socks are required (you can buy them there). And, give yourself time to find parking on the surrounding streets - mostly metered parking. The entire workout uses the studio's custom-built reformer machines so you need to pre-register on the website to reserve your machine. It takes a few sessions to get familiar with the exercises (i.e. dancing panda, rickshaw) and to learn proper form, but it becomes pretty intuitive if you hang in there. Be prepared to feel like an idiot at the beginning. If you are patient & stick with it, your body will thank you. All the instructors are supportive and inspiring as well as the community of athletes in class. If you're lucky enough to get a spot in Jennifer's class (she can make grown men cry), you will experience a master class. The studio is super clean, has cubbies for your stuff and sells cute tees. It is next to a coffee shop and cafes so you can grab a bite after your workout. 'Metamorphosis' is the 'Soul Cycle' of pilates and I'm a huge fan, but I know it's not for everyone. It's not what I would consider recreational exercise. You have to really want to work hard. It is a difficult workout, at best, but definitely rewarding. read more

Another quality Pilates studio from the amazing Metamorphosis team! The megaformer makes this Pilates on crack, my muscles hit that coveted level of shakiness every class. Every instructor I've ever had the pleasure of taking a class with has been great - attentive, supportive, motivating, and just good people. I'm always challenged to bring my best. This latest studio is conveniently located on Hillhurst right in the middle of trendy Los Feliz. Parking is on the streets, so make sure to allocate enough time to find parking. You'll also need grippy socks for the machines which you can purchase on site. Great addition to the Metamorphosis family! read more

Ashley is so good! I took my first Pilates class ever last night and she always checked on me to see how I was doing or to help me if I needed extra guidance. The class was awesome and it kicked my butt, but in a good way! Woke up feeling sore, which I love because that means I did a kick ass workout! Love this place! read more

Morph at home is a great safe at home alternative. The instructors will call out your name to help with motivation. They have a few offering for the class. I also love their in real life classes. Be warned they are challenging and the lingo is a bit different then other reformer classes. However, they do a great job explaining. Parking is metered out in front but you can find free parking on Hillhurst by the library. read more

Loved Pasadena (Jen, Stephanie, Jeff) and now in love with this location in Los Feliz as it's closer to home. My fiancé and I have taken class from Ashley and Laura, and they're both excellent :-) Hard workout, free towel service, clean equipment, LGBT affirming! Free meter parking on sundays Get in there! read more

I have been to many pilates studios in Los Angeles and this is by far my favorite. I love that each class is a different sequence of exercises, which keeps it interesting. Ashley is my favorite teacher, she is super sweet and knowledgeable but the workout is always intense and sometimes I'm sore for days! I'm finally seeing a difference in my body and even seeing my abs for the first time. The studio itself is super clean and beautiful. Love it here! read more

Environment is probably the most important factor for me when choosing a fitness facility. Cleanliness, smell, sounds, colors, lighting...and can I say cleanliness one more time? Morph checks all of those boxes at the highest levels. Morph has the best selection of trainers that I've ever met in any of the various studios and fitness experiences that I've ever had. The rainbow of personalities and training styles at Morph means that you are guaranteed to find the best trainer for you. Try them all and either stick with the one or two you love, or stagger sessions with a variety to change up your workout. Keep in mind that this is different than "Pilates" as you might know it from other nearby studios. This is the real thing...this is for those that want to see results in a short time...this is for those who are busy and want to know that they've maximized their 45 minute workout, and this is for those who appreciate trainers that really care about your progress. As Leah says, "You're Welcome!!" read more

Ashley's class Saturday AM are the best! She has great energy, enthusiasm, and really passionate teaching the class. Highly recommended to take her schedule class, she's just awesome! read more

This place is the absolute best! I've been coming here multiple times during the past few months. The instructors are very talented. They give clear instructions and offer modifications. I love the upbeat attitude everyone has here, and I always feel positively challenged to give my best and improve. Will definitely return! read more

Went to the 7:00 Shred class with Nikki and it was awesome! I am feeling the burn today, but it was so worth it! Nikki was such a great instructor, she helped me fix my form and was super inspiring during the class! Her words of encouragement definitely helped me power through when i was struggling to stay motivated. Will definitely be back! read more

This is a solid Pilates studio with excellent enthusiastic teachers and friendly ownership. My gripes have to do with parking, the length of packages before expiration, the fact that their other studio is on classpass and this one isn't, also the booking system, and the machine itself. read more

I came to this pilates studio with having absolutely no experience. After my first class, I was completely hooked! I've been going to this studio for a little over 6 months and I have gotten into the best shape of my life. This studio truly is one of a kind. They offer the best (and most intense) 45 minute classes, in both the morning and evening, that truly leave you sore every time. The instructors have so much experience and are very focused on proper form and body mechanics throughout the workout. The studio is always kept very clean and and they provide towels for your workout! I highly recommend this studio to anyone wanting to transform their bodies and challenge themselves! read more

I wish this studio had the running and/or spin options like the Eagle Rock and Pasadena studios but nevertheless I still really like it here. The routines are very similar to other reformer or lagree studios and so is the machine but for some reason I find the exercises so much doable here. Don't get me wrong, they're still incredibly challenging and I sweat buckets. I have vertigo which affects my balance and I'm just more comfortable on the machines here than at other studios. Whether ur new to reformer Pilates or a seasoned vet you can always modify the moves to ur comfort level while still getting ur booty kicked. I've taken classes with many of the instructors but I have to say I think Dylan is my favorite. He's such a sweetheart and has taken the time to give me really good advice about how modify moves to accommodate my issue while still being effective. My only complaint is their super strict cancellation policy (12 hours, no exception). I wish it was a little more lenient, like 8 hrs. Oh well. I usually walk to class cuz but it's street parking only so give urself some extra time if ur driving. Looking forward to getting stronger n more fit! read more

Easy parking clean facility I took class with Ashley and she is my favorite. I heard other instructor is great too.

This studio is excellent and a very welcomed addition to the neighborhood. You don't have to worry about which teacher is teaching when because they are all great instructors. Be prepared to work and you will see results. read more
