I have been going to Curanim for 2 months now & it has been wonderful. I was a little worried being…read morenot in shape/never tried Pilates prior but Brittany, Whitney, & Amy are amazing instructors. I can see myself becoming stronger every week They have a diverse selection of classes. Each are about 50 minutes long. I started with 9 foundation classes before enrolling in the more advanced classes - which really helped me improve my form & learn the moves. There is no pressure to overexert yourself but more of a focus to acknowledge where you are & help you gain strength over time. Which as a semi slender couch potato with a previous car injury I truly appreciate this outlook. Overall, I've noticed my body has improved & so have my stress levels. About the studio itself: everything is new & well maintained. I appreciate the commitment to non toxic hand sani & cleaning products. The location is perfectly nestled in the Culver Art District & it is nice area to walk around after class. You barely hear the outside traffic (if there is any). It is a peaceful atmosphere. Parking is easy to find on the streets. There's a few bus stops not too far away as well.

I was also a mat Pilates instructor a gang of years ago! This studio has the best choreographers. They incorporate beautiful dynamic movements that stretch, burn, and build your muscles. The instructors are also very kind and engaging and support proper posture and form while performing the movements. There are a lot of great studios in L.A. but Studio Elevate is in my top 3.

I have always wanted to take Pilates but couldn't find a studio with the right hours. So I found them on the Mind body app. So long story short I'm glad I found them and enjoy this studio. All the instructors are knowledgeable and want people to get the form down to get the most out of Pilates. It's all about control, precision and form. I highly recommend the studio to everyone that wants to start there journey and keep practicing.

I used to go to a studio in Mar Vista and I wanted something closer…read more I started coming to Archer Pilates in their previous locations during Covid. I've been doing Pilates (1-3 days a week) for almost 20 years now. I've probably been to over 10 studios during that time. Once I started coming to Archer Pilates, I can honestly say they have the best instructors I've ever had. I am now a regular of theirs since 2020 I think and I attend 4-5 classes per week!!! Their pricing is extremely valuable for the quality of their classes, patience and kindness of the instructors and their gorgeous new studio! Melanie the owner is amazing. Kat has a special place in my heart. Ashley is a rockstar. Jen is incredible. If you haven't done Pilates before, this is a great studio to go to. Many of the "trendy" studios seem great but they don't focus on you making sure your form is right. If your form isn't right, trust me, you can really hurt yourself. This studio really cares about each person that walks thru their door.

My biggest regret moving from Venice was giving up working out with Bevin at Studio U. This studio…read moreis incredible, the perfect size, clean, welcoming, and it's owner, Bevin, is competent, badass, kind and overall just good people. She made an existing passion of mine, boxing, even more fun and challenging in the right way. I did both group classes and 1-1 sessions and it never disappointed. Even group classes that can sometimes be bleak at other spots were fun and engaging, partially because Bevin builds a community. I never tried the Pilates section, but I only hear great things about it. 10/10 would recommend for anyone looking for a stellar local workout spot with wonderful people to brighten up your existence.

I bought the Daily Candy deal for the TRX 3-class package deal. I used to work out with my trainer…read moreusing TRX and remembered how much I loved it. I honestly haven't seen any studios focusing on TRX classes alone and I was pretty stoked when I got the deal. First off, Studio U is located on Abbot Kinney just down the street from my favorite spinning studio, YAS. I'm shocked that I never knew this place existed and I literally drive by everyday. I guess I was really lucky on my first visit t there was one other student beside me. The instructor, Bevin is knowledgeable, patient and very nice...she watched our every move, form and reminded us to keep breathing. The entire session was literally like a semi-private. My body definitely remembered the moves and I'm sure I'll be feeling sore tomorrow. You can sign up for classes online and there is a 24-hour cancellation policy. Bevin was understanding the first time I canceled due to a last minute conference call I had at work with Asia. I understand now why they need such a lengthy period of time for cancellation as the class sizes are really small. Nevertheless, I will definitely be coming back here.

I tried this studio through ClassPass for the first time today. To start, the instructor, Nandini,…read morewas incredibly sweet, welcoming, and approachable. As someone who is relatively new to both Pilates and ClassPass, I really appreciated how comfortable she made me feel walking into the class. The workout itself was on the easier side. It was exactly what I was looking for today--a more relaxed movement session rather than an intense workout. Personally, I would probably only return when I'm in the mood for something lighter, but that's purely a matter of preference. The reason I'm leaving this review, however, is because of an uncomfortable situation involving another attendee and her dog. In all my years of attending fitness classes, I have never seen someone bring a medium-sized dog into a reformer Pilates class and tie the leash directly to the reformer. The dog was positioned behind its owner, where another attendee and I were working. Throughout the class, the dog repeatedly approached us, attempted to lick us, sniffed our faces, and became tangled between the reformers. What surprised me most was that the owner never redirected the dog or acknowledged that it was disrupting the space of other participants. She appeared completely focused on her workout while everyone else was left to navigate around her pet. To Nandini's credit, she handled the situation with professionalism and kindness. She subtly tried to redirect the dog when it became a distraction, and I genuinely felt she was doing her best to manage an awkward circumstance. My frustration is not directed at the studio or the instructor, but at the pet owner. Bringing a dog into a fitness class is one thing; allowing it to freely interact with other participants in a confined workout space is another. Not everyone is comfortable with dogs approaching them during a class, and basic consideration for shared spaces goes a long way. Overall, Nandini was wonderful, and the studio itself was welcoming. Unfortunately, the experience was overshadowed by a level of entitlement from a fellow attendee that made the class far less enjoyable than it should have been.
