Such a gem of a Pilates studio. I've been eyeing this spot for a while on Classpass. Pilates isn't…read morenormally my first choice when it comes to choosing workouts, but I do know how vital it is to incorporate in one's routine. I notice they recently added a strength class, so I had to finally give it a try. The studio is conveniently located near the West 4th stop. Plenty of cafes/coffee shops to grab a healthy post workout smoothie/bite. You'll need to get buzzed into to go up a flight of stairs to the studio. Inside it's very serene and peaceful. The space is intimate. There's a few changing spaces with some amenities to freshen up, and cubbies for your personal items. I enjoyed the strength class and will continue focusing on those for the time being. The instructor was very friendly and engaging. Moved around the studio throughout the class and inquired about my experience post workout.

I've tried pretty much all of the major barre studios in NYC, and Physique 57 by far is the most…read morechallenging one! Classes move fast with high reps that really make you feel the burn, targeting all major muscle groups in the upper body, lower body, glutes, and core. One thing I really like about Physique 57 is that the instructors do a good job of integrating rhythm/musicality into the exercises and maintaining an upbeat atmosphere throughout class. They're also great about providing individual attention and correcting form when necessary. In terms of the studio, I've visited all 3 studios in SoHo, UES, and NoMad. The NoMad location, which just opened a few months ago, is extremely new and by far the most gorgeous and spacious of the three!

I wanted to update this since we are now about a year since fitness studios reopened…read more COVID policies have been relaxed since our city/state have been relaxing guidelines based on positivity rates and vaccination. I think they've been doing well with this and continuing to clean between classes. Masks no longer required in class. They've recently had a lot of new "deals" which is nice for regulars like myself. I really miss the annual unlimited, because I am paying so much more lately to take fewer classes. Thankfully, they're doing a summer three month unlimited -- I hope they continue something beyond that. More recently, I've been interacting with Brigid, their customer experience manager. I can really tell a difference in the quality of customer service since she's come on board -- she is very responsive and so pleasant, and she is extremely client oriented. For example, they transitioned from one fitness app to another to book classes, and it's been a problematic transition in so many ways. Not only did Brigid fix the issues, she also gave me some extra classes for the trouble. I finally feel valued for being a loyal client (there was a point in time when I wasn't feeling such a way). When there were some further issues, I reached out to her and she's been working through all of those issues with me. Can't say enough positive things about her. My only reason for dropping a star is that showers are still not back. I understood this immediately post pandemic (and they had to consolidate four studios' worth of belongings into one), but it's really difficult to schedule your day and get around the city without a shower option. I understand that times are tough, but class prices are higher than before, yet we also lack the amenities that we had before (showers, towels). Showers seem to be back at most other fitness studios. If the showers came back, I would definitely be more encouraged to take additional classes. The scheduling game is more of a challenge with this.

This…read morewas my first time visiting this location (I've done a few barre classes otherwise) and it's a fairly small and intimate class. They were very welcoming to new people - the instructor had me come to the front and was good about adjustments and tips. I did a Classic class which was a good total body workout (arms, legs, core, etc.) Some of the moves aren't intuitive if you haven't done a barre class before. It's a lot of micro movements and holds, my muscles were sore leaving class. They also require grip socks and will make you buy some at the front if you don't have any. Definitely not cheap, but I think they also offer free trial classes or promo rates for new members.

Love the Pure Barre experience and the folks at the Central Park South location are so wonderful…read more The flexibility of going to various locations and the ease of using the app to sign up makes this a breeze. I enjoy all of the formats with Classic and Align my favorites. Define is a nice option and I really wish they had more Align classes, so I recommend signing up early.
