As a Chiropractor, I work with a lot of patients who also train at XTP, and the difference in their strength, body awareness, and overall movement quality is undeniable. They come in more connected to their bodies, with better control and stability, which makes a huge difference in both their recovery and performance. Janine is incredibly knowledgeable when it comes to the musculoskeletal system, and that really shows in how she coaches and programs. What I appreciate most is how easy it is to communicate with her. I can confidently talk through cases, movement patterns, or specific concerns, and she just gets it. That level of understanding and collaboration is rare and so valuable for patient outcomes. If you're looking for a place that not only pushes you but also truly understands how the body should move, X-treme Pilates is it. Couldn't recommend it more.

Janine is incredibly talented, excellent in instruction and correction. She remembers each student's limitations and is always there with an alternative suggestion. All the instructors have been attentive and very knowledgeable. The clientele is warm, welcoming, and supportive. I am incredibly grateful for finding this gem in La Canada/Glendale.

The first time I came to this studio, I HATED it because of the instructor (Helene). She was VERY…read morechallenging which can be a good thing, but because it was my first time to the studio (I told her), I expected a little guidance. She gave guidance to the guy in the class and one of the girls, but none to me. She asked me afterwards how I liked the class, and I was VERY honest with my response which I can tell she wasn't too happy about. I gave it some time and decided to give it another shot except this time with a different instructor. WHAT A DIFFERENCE!! I was so much happier with this instructor. I liked it that much, I came back again and tried out another different instructor but this time, I didn't need any guidance because by the 3rd time here, I was familiar with the class routine. The class is challenging depending on the instructor. It REALLY makes a big difference who's teaching the class especially if you are a newbie to the studio. Studio is nice and clean. There's an area where you can place your stuff. The bathroom is nice and there are some amenities provided for women which is great. Plenty of free parking in a shared lot, but it can get pretty busy sometimes. There is street parking available which is also free.

She is attentive and kind, with a clear understanding of both my limitations as well my potential, and she helped me immensely. I developed confidence, both in my ability to push past my comfort zone, as well how I felt about myself and my body. I was amazed at how my body developed, both in strength and flexibility. I looked forward to every session, Mel's warm, lovely energy was consistent and nurturing. She is simply put, a delightful human. I would highly recommend her and her studio to anyone looking to up their self care.

Sometimes in life, you find yourself involved in something bigger than you realize. That's how I…read morefeel about Perfectly Fit. I was originally introduced to the studio in 1999 due to chronic knee issues. After a few years of dedication to my Pilates regiment, I regained a strength I thought I'd lost forever. With a desire to learn more, I entered Perfectly Fit's Teacher Training Certification Program, and became an instructor. From 2002-2018, I had the privilege of working at Perfectly Fit with Melissa Quezada, the dedicated and professional studio owner. What a pleasure it was to show up to work every day, teach alongside talented staff, instruct wonderful and loving clients, and give back some Pilates knowledge that had been shared with me over many years. I am now retired and have come full circle as a returning client at the studio. Perfectly Fit is part family, part fun, part functional to my well-being. Whether you are new to Pilates or a seasoned "pro", this studio is a gift to the self that will pay a lifetime's worth of dividends!

Top tier in my book. The neighborhood is super cute, parking is easy, and the facility is clean. So what's not to like? I'm just not a fan of the Montrose studio over their other locations. The room gets so hot and we're not even in the dead of summer yet. I'm not sure if A/C is limited or what's going on with the ventilation. Also, the layout of the space is narrow but long. Machines are spread out with enough space in between each other, but they're basically stacked vertically (one behind another for a few rows). It does seem to be the most space-conscious arrangement for what they are working with, but it's hard to follow if you're all the way in the back and the instructor is demo'ing a new move or if the instructor is newer or not superbly clear throughout class. If this studio location is close to you, do NOT skip on Motivate! Bring grip socks (if you don't want to buy them there) and be on time. If you're early, check out the boutiques and mom-in-pops along Honolulu Avenue. Choose a machine in or near the front unless you're a regular.

I wish the class was 45 to 60 minutes!! I noticed that they use a lot of different types of equipment which always makes a class interesting and challenging. I would have bought a package, but it's way too expensive for my budget. I have ClassPass, and they are not on ClassPass.

You can find free parking on the street or nearby lot. I bought their 5-class intro offer and I got to try out classes taught by different instructors and different levels. Their staff and instructors are very nice. The studio is very cosy and warm. It is spacious and has natural light. I also like that they have three levels to choose from: beginners (1), intermediate (1.5) and advanced (2), where I found most other pilates studios only have beginners and advanced. There's also a head spa and a few cafe on the same street, where you can check out after the pilates.

This review is so long overdue. I've been taking classes with Zonnie for over a year now, and I…read morecannot recommend her enough. I started Pilates with Zonnie after a back injury flared up. Working with Zonnie has built up my core and strength overall. I'm more toned and have lost weight. But what I really need to recommend is working with Zonnie herself. She adapts each lesson to how my mind and my body are feeling that day. She has helped me focus or be Zen when I come in frazzled or will accommodate on days when I'm just plain tired. Zonnie's Pilates knowledge is expert, and she is warm, funny and fun to work with. She's the best!

There are a total of seven reformers, signing up for class is super easy and straight forward on their website. There are several different class packs you can buy if you don't want to commit to a membership. I parked at the Schoolhouse parking garage on Green St. $1 for up to two hours and it was only about a three minute walk to the studio. Quick, safe and convenient. I had Sheri as my instructor. Even though it was an intro class, we had a mixture of people with all different levels. Sheri was awesome to give different options to those who are more advanced or simply those who would like a challenge. If you're thinking of taking your first reformers class, don't be intimated because your instructor will go over each functionality/part of the machine. One of the things I look out for when determining how much I'll enjoy the class is whether or not an instructor will be hands-on in correcting your form. Like yes, please correct me so I will know what's the correct way moving forward. So thank you Sheri for being hands-on. I was back home for the holiday season and I'm glad Yelp helped me discover this studio.
