I booked a trial 3 class session bunch through website. Business said it's located on 8900 block of Balboa in Northridge( ITS NOT A STUDIO AS ADVERTISED AT ADDRESS , ITS A HOME) I first called several times to see what schedule was for classes, no one ever answered and voicemail was full. I actually went to location and it was a house . Had sign outside with logo of business on a gate . Seems very shady . It's advertised like a studio with multiple locations and this was just a home. Wouldn't trust it AT ALL. If this is a business running out of a home that needs to be specified online and on website !!! False advertisement ! And also be better as a business with answering calls and have a way to communicate with potential clients..but again think its a scam....seems extremely shady and will not be going to a strange home for classes . Just Weird. read more

This post is long overdue. Probably one of the most unorganized studios I've ever been to. On the website it had stated the first class as free, so I attended a class (which had only 3 others attending). The instructor was a sub, and was 5 mins late. She was frantically trying to figure out the sound system with no avail, so she instead played music on her phone while walking around. Class was super basic, the "Pilates" machines are more like something a child can play on for fun. It should have been called a stretching for the elderly class. I finished class, was heading out, when the owners called the instructor. She said they wanted to talk to me...? Weird. I picked up the phone and had one of THE most embarrassing and awkward conversations of my life. I was on a three-way call with both owners whose only goal was to get me, a new first time student, to buy a membership with them. The lady on the phone was really unprofessional, asking me what my intentions were and how I can pay for signing up. I went on to tell her I signed up thru the website for a free class, and I did not bring my wallet, but if it is a problem with paying for the first class (which was supposed to be free) I can go run home and get the money, or PayPal her or Venmo her because this conversation is making me feel pressured and uncomfortable. The other man on the phone noticed my frustration and said, "don't worry about it, this class is on us. We hope to see you again in the future". There is NO way on earth that I would ever ever return here again. The business is run unprofessionally with the wrong intentions mind, making customers feel humiliated. I am shocked that this place is still open. read more

Bought the 3-private lessons package to get back into Pilates after many years away. The owner, Mila, was so friendly and her expert and easy to follow instructions reminded me why I love Pilates. I immediately felt the stretch and abs. She was also very accommodating with my schedule. The studio is very clean and inviting. Highly recommend and this will be my new place. read more

Mila is fantastic and a genuine joy to be around. Her deep knowledge as well as her interest in getting you in the best shape of your life is second only to her enthusiasm, humor and passion for her clients. Janelle is an added bonus to the studio as well. I wish Mila and the team continued well deserved success; highly recommend! read more

I took Mila's class this morning at X-tend Pilates, I was so impressed that I joined right away. I have been looking for this exact workout for a long time. I belong to two gyms and have taken other pilates classes but nothing compares to the class I just took. I'm grateful to have found a caring instructor/owner in Mila. Her studio is super clean and cheerful. She is very upbeat and encouraging. She loves what she does and it shows. I can't wait for my next class! read more

I really enjoy the classes. The instructors design the exercises specifically for my need, strength and ability. The studio is clean and inviting Great group of people read more

Mila is an awesome instructor and owner of Xtend Pilates. She will modify your pilates exercises to meet your level and needs. I came in as a beginner and knew nothing about the pilates machines etc. Since then I have strengthened my core, abs, arms, legs everywhere and since the stretching of arms, legs, abs, core has helped me, I haven't had injuries, backaches , neck aches or anything like that. I did walking and some cardio but pilates is so great for your core and the stretching will help you when you lift things and prevent aches and pains. I know people who might walk and do cardio but don't stretch and then complain about their back, and everything. Mila works with you to make sure you are doing the exercises right. She is a master instructor who understands every bone, every muscle in your body and how to work it or how to strengthen it. I always feel great after having her classes. You need to take time for yourself to strengthen your core so you will be in good shape and prevent aches and pains. This helps you so much. I love the people in the group classes. They are really nice. There are morning and evening classes. There are group classes and private and semi private classes. Mila will work with you during your intro sessions and help you find the class that suits you. Xtend Pilates is on Devonshire and Mason in Chatsworth in the same lot as Panda Express. You will love the classes. Mila is passionate about her teaching and her students. She cares about how you do and teaches you to do it right. She asks if you have any limitations in various areas ie. knee, neck, back etc. and will accommodate those physical issues appropriately. You should go to one of her classes and see how fun it will be. You will love it!! It has become part of my lifestyle. I look forward to every class. Then after each class I feel so good knowing I am strengthening my core, helping to prevent backaches, body aches etc. You will see what I mean when you join. read more

I have been going to X-Tend for just a lil over one month, and have subscribed to the membership. I couldn't be happier that I FINALLY followed through and just made it happen! Mila is the owner, yet I now have had classes with all or most of her instructors, and they are all different, yet awesome in their own right (Mila, Janelle, Debbie ... so far)! I already and feeling stronger and experiencing MUCH less knee and back pain. Looking forward to continuing to increase core strength, flexibility, and then looking to experience a longer and leaner shift in my physique as well. This is an expensive fitness activity in general (part of my delay and procrastinating), but I will say that her prices are reasonable, comparatively, and well worth squeezing it in to your budget! read more

This is a wonderful pilates studio! My mom is English limited speaker and I was looking for a friendly studio with great instructors who can teach their students with open minds and hearts. My mom has been a student at the studio for more than a year. And she is not only healthier, but she is happier. All the instructors are professionals. Particularly, Mila's teaching style and philosophy is awesome. She is also caring and makes sure to update me on my mom's performance as well as her schedule. Debbie and Jenelle are also amazing instructors and you should definitely take their classes. They make sure to focus on you and your need. read more

For the last few months, I've been taking private Pilates sessions with Mila. It was the best decision I've made in a long time! Adding Pilates to hiking, weight lifting and biking has proven to be the missing link. At 60 years of age, I feel better than ever. Mila has put together an amazing Team. If you're hesitating to take Pilates or any other exercise program because of the money, I feel it's wiser to spend your resources on something that will make you feel better (to the core) everyday, rather than spending money on medication and physical therapy later in life. If you are fortunate enough, you'll meet a Mila or maybe two in your lifetime. Stop by and meet Mila and the Team, you'll see what I mean. read more

Mila is a well informed instructor the studio is extremely clean and maintained. Unfortunately the gentleman at front desk was extremely pushy kept calling and cto have me sign up after my intro class. He even asked to give out CC# over the phone . Thank you for this pushing I found a different location for my workouts and I even paid for 1yr in full. As I was waiting for my daughter the owner where outside asking for a client who was sitting in her car to please write a good review on yelp . read more

I am so uncoordinated, so taking classes makes me nervous. That being said-The classes here are small and Mila is a amazing instructor. If your doing A position wrong, which I always do she'll come fix you. My body feeling stronger and more flexible. Love her classes! So happy I found this studio. read more

I just finished a class @ X-tend Pilates with one of the new instructors, Tianna, and I am impressed!! having taken Pilates instruction for almost 20 years I am pretty particular when it comes to training/classes and Tianna is a wonderful addition to X-tend Pilates. she arrived prepared & ran her class smoothly with uninterrupted routines while being informative and supportive. she is knowledgeable & explain each exercise and which area we were targeting. thank you for the great workout and class!! I can't believe it's been almost 3 years since Mila opened X-tend Pilates. I have been attending classes there 2 to 3 times a week since it opened ... I so appreciate the individual attention during classes and during private and semi private lessons; my safety/well-being is always a top priority to the instructors - something that is missing in a lot of these Pilates clubs where they just jam through routines whether people have had experience and understand the proper positioning for the exercises or not. I always feel safe pushing forward into new, more complicated exercises and have never been injured. I highly recommend extend Pilates for anyone who is interested or just curious about Pilates and what it can do for you physically and mentally. Mila provides a safe and nurturing place to honor and take care of yourself. I encourage you to check it out!! read more

X-tend Pilates is a must in my life. Mila is a very educated and talented instructor. I had significant hip surgery almost 5 years ago and Mila has helped me so much in my rehab. She knows exactly how to modify the exercises to challenge me as well as protect my hip. She is very hands on and makes sure that I always have the correct form. She is fun, loving, and wants her clients to always leave feeling better than when they came in. Mila is so passionate about what she does and loves each and every person that walks through her doors. She attends fitness conferences regularly, and is up to date with all the newest research regarding health and wellness. I have attended other pilates studios and none of them compare to the personal attention and knowledge Mila provides her clients. I am such a stronger person physically and mentally because of Mila. She's amazing. read more

Totally enjoy this Pilates Studio, The instructor's are awesome and patient. I've been coming since March 2018 and I actually have seen a difference in my physical mobility. I recommend you take the free introductory class. read more

This review is long overdue. I started pilates here several years ago, as a complete novice. I had no idea what to expect, how I'd keep up in the class or if pilates was the right form of exercise for me. From my initial call, Mila, answered all of my questions in detail and was so welcoming during my first session. I suffer from scoliosis and she recognized it before I even mentioned it to her. She is always accommodating to every level, physical abilities and makes each class so fun and rewarding. She really cares about her clients, takes a deep interest in each of us and modifies the exercises to individual needs/limitations. Years later, I'm proud to say I've strengthened my skills, have adapted to the exercises and truly look forward to my classes each week. Thank you, Mila, for being so attentive, caring, and helping me feel better and stronger! If you've been on the fence about pilates, I highly recommend you try a class and see for yourself how wonderfully fun it is here. Believe me, if I can truck through each class with all of my pain and limitations, you can, too! read more

Mila is the best. I've been working out with her for about three years, first at a different studio, then her home studio, and now her very own studio. I've had back issues off and on over the years from biking and bad posture. Since Mila is also a biker she knew what I needed to work on. We focus on core exercises and stretching. It has helped me tremendously! You won't find a better trainer, she knows her stuff. In three years no two workouts have been the exact same. She varies it up, always! And her prices are great. Check her out. read more

I love this studio! The classes are personalized and Mila and Mark are lovely and accommodating. I have many injuries and both Mila and KJ are great instructors. They both really take the time to make sure you are doing it right. You can tell that they love what they do. I signed up right away for 3 months and am sure I will keep coming even after that. I've been to other studios where I just felt like a number. That is not the case here. I am so glad to have found this place! read more

This place is amazing. Very clean and offers variety of classes to accommodate every schedule and level of fitness. I've never tried Pilates before and Mila took her time to explain to me all the basics and helped me to come up with the plan for my work outs. People that go work out there are also very nice so the atmosphere is great too. I highly recommend this place to everyone read more

I've been going to X-tend Pilates in Chatsworth for a little over a month and I have had a very positive experience every time. I started with private lessons with the owner, Mila, then switched to classes once a week with Lauren. The classes were so good that I decided to double my impact and go twice a week. The studio provides a really nice environment for workouts - it is clean and well maintained, and the equipment seems very new. The instructors are very knowledgeable and provide excellent instruction tailored to my individual needs. I'm coming back to pilates after about a 10 year break, and couldn't be happier. This is the best workout for building strength and flexibility, and will be a high priority for me to continue well into the future. Thank you, Mila and Janell! read more

X-Tend Pilates is a great studio for professional and personalized instruction with a very friendly atmosphere. I've been training with Mila and some of the other instructors there for a long time and I love it and how it keeps me feeling strong and balanced. I highly recommend giving it a try, whether you are a beginner or advanced pilates student, it is worth your time and money! I especially enjoy my private and semi-private sessions to get the most out of my training! Thanks Mila for helping me stand taller and work hard to keep my body moving in the right direction!!! read more

I've been with X-tend Pilates for two months and am really enjoying it. It's a great full body workout with extra stretching which I really appreciate. Mila and her team of knowledgeable instructors are fantastic. read more

Janelle is amazing. She tailors the classes to the requests of the clients, is always watching to make sure you are doing things correctly and is there to correct you when needed. She is very hands on and really cares about the welfare of the clients. The exercises in the classes are varied so boredom does not set in while still keeping a core routine going. I can see myself improving every time I go. The studio is clean and inviting. read more

Mila is an excellent Pilates instructor. I'd never taken a class before (my wife is a regular of Mila's, and has been for years) and I was a little nervous about feeling uncomfortable doing something I'd never done before. Mila was patient, but she also really pushed me.....she made it super challenging, but it was also very fun. I had a great time. read more

My wife and I having been doing Pilates for the last 15 years. This is by far is one of the best Pilates studio's put together with brand new reformers. Most importantly, their staff is experienced and well trained. Mila, the owner and one of the Pilates instructors, is a proven professional who knows how to strengthen our core and bring back flexibility to our bodies. At 66 years of age, Pilates done the right way, with a professional trainer, is the best form for body strengthening and flexibility. My wife and I do semi-private classes with Mila twice a week. She also has group classes. If your want the best Pilates experience, this should be your new home. Thanks Mila for bringing a FIVE STAR Pilates Studio to Chatsworth!!! read more

I've been taking private Pilates sessions here with Jessica for the past several months, since early in my pregnancy (I'm currently 33 weeks). It has been a great experience. Jessica has helped me to maintain my strength and improve my strength in key areas in preparation for birth. I've really enjoyed my sessions with her. She is always on time and brings a positive and welcoming attitude. I've trained a couple times with Mila as well and she is great also. I appreciate their flexibility in scheduling and the general atmosphere of the studio. Highly recommend checking it out!! read more

Great studio and Mila is an awesome instructor! Since I'm new to Pilates I really appreciated how she took time to make sure my body was positioned correctly. Can't wait to try another session again soon, highly recommend this place!! read more
