Other pilates studios and instructors can really push you (in a bad way) but at South Bay Pilates, they encourage you to listen to your body and they offer modifications if needed. I've always found free parking on the street right in front without any issue. Class size is small (I think 8 reformers?) albeit a little bit cramped in the group class space of the studio. My BIGGEST gripe is the lack of air conditioning. Or, if they do have A/C, it's barely on! They do have a ceiling fan but I really wish they cranked up the AC, we're sweating over here and I need the air flow!

The studio has a variety of the classic Pilates machines and props; such as the cadillac reformer, tower, and original reformer.

There was also tons of street parking which was great, I'd definitely go back soon.

I took advantage of their new customer promo and have completed 14 classes so far between the…read moreManhattan Beach and Redondo Beach locations. A little background: I'm new to the area, and I did lagree for about 1.5 years when I lived near Arcadia. The machines there were the newer Megaformers, with black, white, and grey springs. At MDR, since they've been established longer in the South Bay, the machines are older generation, with red, orange, and yellow springs. They also have various footholds and handlebars set at different heights. Since I trained on the newer models, I'm still getting used to these older ones at MDR, and it can be a bit confusing. Sometimes I catch myself looking for footholds, or reaching for the wrong handlebar since I'm used to just one bar. That said, lagree is a fantastic full-body workout that targets your abs, legs, arms, and glutes. I still get a challenging, sweaty session every time, it is brutal in the best way. The instructors are helpful, and I don't mind the hands-on adjustments since that's how you actually learn and improve. I'm just not ready to commit to a long-term membership yet, given the South Bay pricing. Parking is plentiful, in the large shared lot with CVS and Bristol Farms.

They pushed you like you were training for the olympics and chastised you for not doing the movement correctly! I vowed never to step into another pilates studio again! ... Well, that is ... until I accidentally stumbled across Azalea's Pilates Studio! While at the lights at Artesia & Inglewood, I saw the big sign for Azalea's Pilates. Some force of energy was telling me to go and check it out. And boy, I am so happy I did! There are only x3 reformers, this is to ensure each client gets the individual attention a person needs in a class. Azalea teaches with absolute precision and care. Her voice is soothing and nurturing. If you make a mistake, she gently corrects you so that you do not feel intimated or overwhelmed. Azalea is very aware of your bodies idiosyncrasies. I was totally blown away when she mentioned my anterior pelvic tilt to the right! No yoga teacher, no gym trainer, no kickboxing instructor cared or ever noticed I have this challenge in my body! I have had x3 classes with Azalea and I feel energetic and grounded! If you're looking for a pilates studio, where you will get individual attention, care and outstanding prices, then look no further Azalea is your way to feeling and looking better!

Easy to follow and she made sure to call out cues clearly through her headset. I will say i want to come back and try the reformer next. I like that they offer a variety of classes because of that reason i will return!

The instructors are exceptionally well trained, give excellent cues, and genuinely care about proper form. In all the years I've been coming here, I've never had a bad class. The studio offers classes for everyone, from beginner to advanced, and does a great job blending classical Pilates with more contemporary movements. The workouts are always varied, so the classes stay fresh and engaging. What makes this studio even more special is the welcoming sense of community. The instructors know everyone by name, and the studio regularly shows its appreciation for members with occasional holiday treats, refreshments, and vendor events. Pilates has helped me stay strong, mobile, and active over the years, and I'm grateful to have found such a welcoming, high-quality studio. I highly recommend it!

My experience may be different from someone who is completely new to Pilates. It was instructed to come 15 minutes early before your first class so I did. A class was finishing up but the studio is very clean and for me self explanatory. So I put all my stuff in the cubbies provided, self-checked in on the Ipad, and waited for the class to finish. My first class was with Brittany and she did briefly explain the reformer to me, but I told her I had used a reformer before so I didn't need a thorough explanation. There was another girl in my class who was new so she helped her. The LIT class, which is their entry beginner class, I will say is a pretty good workout. I liked that even in the LIT class Brittany gave you the option if you wanted to do a higher level of weight/work for more of a challenge. The space is very clean, the reformers are in great working shape, and decorated more trendy. I enjoyed the music here (but if you are looking more for an experience where its playing more elevator type music then I would say this studio is not for you). Another thing I like about this studio is the variety of different classes like the cardio-jump board class, straps, classic pilates, etc. I took a jump board class with Allie and it was a great workout! Allie was also super sweet. I'll be back!
