Love working with Robin! Great for traditional pilates and a balanced workout. Been working with her for years and highly recommend her.

If you're looking for a classical Pilates spot, this is your spot in the Venice area. I like taking these type of classes to balance out my body between more intense workout classes to make sure I'm strengthening the smaller and usually neglected muscles and even on both sides of my body. I like that their classes are available on ClassPass for easy and affordable booking when I'm in the area. I have tried the jump board class and mat class so far; both were nice easygoing morning classes with a good amount of challenge. You shouldn't come expecting to be drenched in sweat at the end. The classes are capped at 4 people, and both times I came they were fully booked so reserve ahead of time if you want to try it out. First class is just $15 and you can check in on here to get a free mat class, both of which can be booked on MINDBODY if you don't have ClassPass! read more

I have been doing Pilates for several years. Since I moved to my new place six months ago, I have been going to Turning Point Pilates. Robin is the best instructor I ever had, super detail oriented and taking the time to help me. I have a herniated disc on my neck but since I started doing pilates there I barely remember about it, my life improved significantly since I joined this studio. read more

I have been to a number of Pilates studio in West LA and the personalized training you get at Turning Point Pilates sets them apart. The max number of students in a class is 4 which allows the teacher to really correct you when needed and provide a more intense and hands on workout. And to top it off all of the instructors and students are super sweet! read more

I went here to just try it out once, and am immediately was hooked. I now go 3-4/week because the space is so calming, the classes are so fun and interesting and the teachers are seriously amazing!! read more

Great place, friendly instructors, but they need to put their beautiful photography art work about 2 feet higher up on the wall. Spread out the machines a little bit. I can't imagine someone who's 6' or taller having a spacious and non-constricting workout. read more

The individual attention to your practice, your body is amazing! Only 4 people per class.

I had a great experience at Turning Point Pilates. I was visiting and wanted to maintain my workouts while on vacation. The studio is in a great neighborhood and the instructors were fantastic and friendly. I took 3 classes, all Great and learned new information from all of them. I love Pilates and if you're looking for a new studio or starting for the first time I highly recommend! read more

Turning Point Pilates offers great classical Pilates. If you're new, this is the place to start and if you're experienced and want to recommit, Robin and all the well-trained, thoroughly vetted instructors will get you back on track. I like all the classes and instructors, but I've particularly benefited from private lessons with Robin. I'm enjoying better posture, balance and flexibility -- and seeing improvement during physical activity whether I'm in the pool or on the trail. read more

What a find! Turning Point will be seeing me again soon. Their kindness and patience was extraordinary: I went to the wrong studio, arrived late and yet, Roxanna treated me like a treasured private student. Her classical precision with in-the-fly neck accommodations were very impressive. As always, I need more ab strength and her cues and adjustments pointed me in the right direction on curl ups. read more

I'm so glad I found this little studio! Robin, the owner, is an incredibly skilled instructor. She has the ability to maintain the integrity of pilates, ie using controlled movement and balance- while serving up a work out that will make you sweat. She is very hands on and has a talent for managing a mixed level class, pushing you to challenge yourself (even at 8 in the morning). Lastly, the equipment is nice and I love the convenient location. Highly recommend! * But not too highly because I really don't want all of her classes filling up! * read more

I love the private classes with Robin and Maria. I have made remarkable improvement in my balance and had new development in my body and posture (according to my friends). Robin makes the sessions interesting and different every time. They are all wonderful and caring which is not something I usually see in gyms or with trainers. It makes it s very special place. I recommend getting one on one classes before taking any group pilates classes so you know what you're supposed to be feeling, it's so helpful. read more

I've taken several classes here and just love the studio. Marie in particular is fantastic and I love the personal attention each of the students receives in every class. I personally have scoliosis and she's great about keeping my body alignment in check, which, that's what Pilates is all about after all! read more

Pilates has been life changing for me but I'm very particular about who I work with. When my studio closed last year, I was concerned I wouldn't be able to find a new home that offered the sort of thoughtful, intuitive, mind-body conscious level of training I prefer. I was so thrilled to find Lily and Robin at Turning Point only a few blocks away. I'm so grateful for the low key good vibes and attentive training they provide. read more

Robin is a very intuitive, respectful and conscious Pilates instructor with strong elements of breath work to work through varying position, I always feel connected and in tune after her different level workouts read more

Great studio with small classes, excellent teachers and individualized attention.

What a great Pilates studio tucked away in a cool part of the west la that I know and love. First time there and I could not have been happier from the greeting when I walked in the door which was warm, welcome and efficient. We got moving quickly with clear instructions and great cues in a classical Pilates series that honestly kicked my bthigh, abdominals and big toe!! It's always great to mix it up and try something new and I really liked this studio and the vibe so I will be back soon. Marilyn was the teacher today and she was fantastic with her attention and instructions. Two big toes in plantar flexion right now. read more

I love Turning Point Pilates! Robin Solo is a talented and informed instructor with a special knack for knowing what is needed to stabilize and strengthen the body. I also love that this is truly traditional / classical Pilates. I was searching for a studio that would teach it in this way, as there are so many other hybrids and offshoots of styles that I don't like. Some of the other studios and classes out there are so fast paced with large groups of students that I actually thought I was going to hurt myself in them. I especially love the Jump Combo class at Turning Point because it gets in a good cardio workout on the reformer. If you're looking for small personalized group classes or top notch private instruction, this is the Pilates studio for you! read more

I come here 5 times a week. The staff is so knowledgeable and the small class sizes really mean you get the attention you need to ensure your form is always correct. They are well versed in modifying as well so it's a great studio if you are coming out of physic therapy and looking to keep up your training. read more

The beginner class is just what I needed. Very detailed and focused on form and the correct way to handle the reformer. They are very accommodating. I will be taking this class a few more times just to become very familiar with Pilates and reformer terms and improve on my form. There is plenty of metered street parking- just watch for street cleaning signs not to get a ticket. read more

I have been a client for over 7 years. When I started I was lifting weights twice a week and the stretching and core work were a nice complement to weight lifting. A couple years later I had a stroke and classical Pilates at Turning Point was an integral part of my rehabilitation.Five years later, Pilates is the core of my fitness routine. Over the years, I have worked with several teachers at Turning Point, including Robin the owner. They are all very professional and knowledgable. Whether you are looking to supplement your current workout routine, rehab an injury, or you want to embark on a new fitness routine, I highly recommend calling Turning Point Pilates! read more

Robin and all her staff have treated me with absolutely the best care! It's a family atmosphere at TurningPoint.They are experts at Pilates and I have gained so much strength and flexibility in a short period of time. I look forward to going to my session!!! and my body and mood have seen great results with Pilates and I am so thankful for this studio! read more

"I've experienced almost every Pilates studio on the West Side and Turning Point has by fare the most dedicated, experienced & enthusiastic instructors I have come across. They teach a classical method and are mindful to help you with your form. The classes are small so you are never without helpful hints and encouragement. I highly recommend if you are new to Pilates or wanting a great work out at any level. I especially love the weekend morning classes I come out sweating with a smile on my face !" read more

Turning Point is truly a gem in the Venice/Santa Monica area. As a serious yoga practitioner who recently recovered from injury, I was looking for a pilates studio to help with stability and strength that would help me build up my weakened muscles. All of the teachers at Turning Point were phenomenal. I knew a lot about the body but not much about Pilates, and through a combination of privates and classes, I learned a ton and gained exactly the stability I was looking for to feel more confident in my yoga practice and in life. Pilates is now a core part of my routine, as I've learned so much from Robin, Roxanne, and the other teachers at Turning Point, and I realize how good it is for my body. They also managed to accommodate my busy scheduled with a ton of flexility and options. Thank you Turning Point for keeping me grounded and injury free! read more

One of my favorite Pilates studios on the westside. Robin, the owner, is awesome and really watches you to make sure you are doing every move correctly. I've been to many group classes where the instructor doesn't even look at you. I love that Turning Point offers small group classes with the appropriate attention for each individual. I highly recommend this studio to anyone who is interested in Pilates. read more

Excellent instructors, good class selections, not intimidating, easy to book classes and great prices. Oh and the part I love the most is that you are not being watched by folks on the street!! read more

I started doing Pilates because of back, neck and shoulder aches. As I got older mid 40's I realized I needed to strengthen my core to improve how I feel physically. Finding Turning Point Pilates and Robin has been quite a find. Physically I do not ache anymore and Robin is a very kind and knowledgeable teacher. I fully recommend Turning Point Pilates for anyone who wants to improve how they feel physically! read more

Great studio! Group sessions by well trained instructors in an intimate setting and you'll still feel like you had a personal session. Jump class is awesome! Friendly staff! Note-read all posted signs for parking. read more

My body thanks me every day I go to Turning Point Pilates. I am not a young chicken anymore and already starting to shrivel up. Robin works closely with me, knows my weaknesses and sore spots and what I need to work on. I feel like a million bucks after a session and crappy when I miss. The other instructors are fantastic as well - I love Lindsay and Roxanne, too. The practice is clean and very well run. I honestly cannot think of anything negative or even cautionary to mention. It's a gem of a spot and I'm thankful it's nearby! read more

My first experience with Pilates was for rehab after a traumatic injury that put me in a wheelchair which helped me walk again. My experience with Robin and two of her instructors has been nothing but positive. Beautiful space and great instructors.. I suggest exploring this studio! Even one session will lead you on a better path. read more

Marlene's jump class is the best. It's truly a Pilates Jump class, not one of those classes at other studios where they have you spending more time off the reformer doing burpees than on the reformer jumping. She's a stickler for form and truly explains which part of your body should be activated with each move. You will feel your abs and glutes! read more

I just had a Nano Current facial treatement from Robin and, wow...what a difference! My eyes really opened up and my jawline lifted. Great treatment. I highly recommend it. read more

I'm so happy that I found this studio and Robin. It's so convenient, clean, and pleasant. All the teachers are great, and all have a wealth of experience. They are well trained, extremely patient and you know that they want you to leave knowing more than you did when you arrived for your appointment. The instructors are committed individuals to pilates and you could not be in better hands. read more

I happened upon Turning Point Pilates during a short stay in Venice. What a great studio. I bought a package of ten sessions with Robin and had a fantastic experience. She really helped me fine tune my Pilates practice and is a lovely person to boot. read more

What a great studio! I love that each class is kept to a small group. Classes feel more personalized. I love Sonia I actually followed her to this studio from another location. I have come to love Robin as well. I am not a Pilates pro or even consider myself to be athletic but Robin and her teachers make you feel very comfortable and really work with you every step of the way!! I hated working out and I actually look forward to my Pilates sessions each week! read more

Outstanding instructors who understand anatomy and physiology. They always ensure that clients are using proper form to maximize the effects of each exercise. It's always a phenomenal workout! The studio has great energy with beautiful framed photographs of serene ocean views! read more

Turning Point Pilates is the best pilates studio. The new location is wonderful and every class is a challenging pleasure.

So far I've only taken Robin's jump board classes. Jumpboard is my favorite when it comes to Pilates, because it is both cardio and strength training. Robin is great - knowledgeable, motivating, and makes sure you get in a great workout. She'll also sort of tailor the class for the students energy levels, which makes it friendly and personal. Adjustments suggested as needed (I have frozen shoulder and can't do everything). Small classes also allow for individual attention. read more

I took 3 mixed level reformer classes in 3 days with Turning Point Pilates through ClassPass while traveling. They were great - just what I needed to jumpstart the new year. I am a relative newcomer to the reformer. The personalized attention from Robin and Marlene was great and incredibly helpful, especially amongst students with varying abilities. I look forward to returning on future visits! read more

The group reformer classes are kept to 4 people max, offering a more individualized and hands on experience in order to really understand Pilates and do the exercises correctly. The instructor/owner, Robin, is a wonderful teacher that has the skill to teach a mixed class that is safe, has a good flow, and provides modifications so that each student gets the most out of their practice. As a certified Pilates instructor myself, I would highly recommend Turning Point Pilates if you are looking for a great foundation to Pilates. read more
