I went to a 6:00 am class, and due to residents living above the studio, you wear headphones. That way, the music is played through the headphones instead of blasting EDM at 6:00 am. I enjoyed this format because I could focus on myself and the prompts from the instructor. Parking can be tricky, but since I went in the early AM, I parked right in front of the studio. I will probably buy a class package because I like trying new workouts and studios.

The staff is warm, welcoming and most of all - approachable. They answer questions and don't make you feel... stupid haha. I love going once a week and pushing myself in the classes. Parking is plentiful (it's in a big lot so just park anywhere lol) I only had an issue with finding parking once at like 7pm but I just parked further away closer to the Starbucks in the lot. Prices are reasonable (get the class passes!) they even have a first time customer $50 for 30 day unlimited access to their classes. I love Samantha W's classes!!!!

Align is my favorite Pilates studio in all of San Diego! It's truly a gem. The owners, Nicky and…read moreSheena are both amazing instructors. All of the staff is great, and you really won't go wrong with booking a class here. It is all reformer-based, so I would recommend that you do either have a private session beforehand or a bit of experience using the machine. Make sure you book weekends in advance, as the slots fill up. I really like the cancellation policy is client-friendly, and the app to book is easy as well.

I had the best experience at Align Pilates on Park Avenue! I've been to their original studio on…read moreAdams Avenue before, so I already knew they had that clean, modern, cool vibe--but the Park Ave location took it to another level. The space feels fresh, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed. Our instructor, Sheena, was absolutely incredible. She has such a sharp eye for core engagement and proper form, and she gives cues that actually make sense and help you feel the movement in all the right places. You can tell she's passionate about what she does and genuinely wants everyone in the room to get the most out of their workout. I went with a group of friends to celebrate a birthday, and it ended up being the perfect way to kick off the day. The class was fun, challenging, and super supportive--exactly the kind of energy you want when you're trying something new with friends. If you're looking for a studio that blends great instruction, beautiful spaces, and a welcoming vibe, Align Pilates is definitely the spot. I can't wait to go back!

Prior to Covid, barre was my go to group ex workout. I've been to a number of different studios and…read morenotice they all have their own formats. For me, Pure Barre's format is the hardest to attach to. I don't know what it is but I can't quite get into the rhythm of the routine and prefer The Bar Method as it feels more alignment and placement focused than the quicker pace of Pure Barre. However, I think the draw to Pure Barre is that the format is faster and it can feel more entertaining and well paced. The instructor was very friendly and I like that she provided corrections. The studio location itself though is tough. Parking in the area is rough and the room is a little small.

Kensington is solid because you can usually find street parking pretty easy, depending on the time of day. This studio is clean and gets a ton of natural light. If you go to this location, definitely check out Nihan's classes. Regardless if you're a beginner or advanced, she'll make your time on the reformer worth every penny. I come back every week and I'm always sweating by the end of her class. Bring a towel and water! It's no joke, but love the class and love her as an instructor. She cues well and corrects form if needed. Highly recommend!

Communication is what can improve. As a Beyond Pilates member, they hold a remarkable October…read moreMember Appreciation Month. It is great and generous offering. The issue is communication about who wins! While this may sound petty, I love this Member appreciation month and have been a member for 2 years. I keep my raffle ticket yet (which makes no sense as we fill out the primary ticket with our name and phone #), there is no direction as to how to who actually wins. There is nothing published on their flyer to tell us where to find the info. For those of us who are not big social media people, Instagram or Facebook isn't our 'go to'. To top it off, we are 'trained' to go to their website or to their class booking platform to get information, so why is nothing about this raffle listed on their site. As a matter of fact, where do members even get updates? Otherwise, their instructors -Jess, Bianca, Marguerite and Nihom (the ones I typically go to) are FANTASTIC. So whoever handled the admin piece of the business is lacking and non-responsive as I had these same issues each and every time they run promos or giveaways.

I arrived before my class and chatted with a fellow classmate before going in. The studio had multiple reformers to accommodate multiple people. Each area was clean and organized. We wrote our name and had an area to put our stuff down. Luckily, because I've done Pilates before, I had socks with me. The instructor was patient and paid attention to every student. She helped those who were struggling with the poses. The cadence of the class was great as it was a slow build up to more challenging poses. I liked that we got to use a variety of the equipment to get a feel for everything. I didn't know that there's a Club Pilates next to my house, so I may try that studio as well. Great studio and class! Thoroughly enjoyed this experience.

As someone who tried every "organized exercise" option in the area, I'm so glad to have landed on Barre3 - the classes are challenging enough for someone who's done this for years, but accessible enough for someone like me, who came in having never participated in any team or sport or athletic...anything...ever!

Gorgeous new studio, same amazing Barre3 energy!…read more I'm so excited about the new Barre3 Mission Hills studio that recently took over the former Studio Barre location--and WOW, they've completely transformed the space! The design is absolutely beautiful. From the moment you walk in, it feels like a calming, zen retreat. The lobby is spacious with a friendly front desk team, a cubby area for your things, and lots of cute Barre3 swag to browse (and yes, I've already been tempted). The studio itself is bright and airy, with big mirrors so you can check in on your form throughout class. They've outfitted it with brand-new equipment and even the weights are color-coordinated in earthy tones of brown, orange, and red--so aesthetically pleasing! While the current floors can be a bit slippery (grip socks are required), they're in the process of replacing them with cork flooring like the North Park studio, which I'm really looking forward to. It's been great to see some of the former Studio Barre instructors stay on--they're all fantastic--and I love seeing familiar faces from the North Park instructor team popping up on the schedule too. I'm especially excited for the upcoming addition of Strength and Cardio classes to mix things up even more. And the parking situation is a dream compared to most studios in San Diego. There's metered street parking available, but the real perk is being able to use the garage by Vons on the corner--such a game-changer for busy days. I officially switch my membership over to this studio next week, and I couldn't be more excited. Barre3 Mission Hills is off to an incredible start and I can already tell it's going to be my new home base for movement, strength, and community!

The gym is huge to start so it is almost guaranteed that the machine you want will be available, even during peak hours. They really pride themselves on cleanliness and that is the most important aspect to me. Members are always wiping down their equipment before and after use and the employees are periodically cleaning all around. The locker rooms & restrooms are spacious with many spots available so that there is no stalling between guests. The amenities are wonderful - sauna, steam, tanning, gym equipment, kids club - EVERYTHING!! Do a 7 day trial and I promise you will be anting to sign up on day 3!

Worst gym I've ever walked into, and I say that as a man who will train in a barn if the iron is…read morehonest. The air hits you first. Musty. Thick. Then the lights give up. Stark pockets everywhere. Small floor. Turf the size of a welcome mat. Four benches for the entire building. You will wait. You will get asked about your bench or someone might casually try to move in on your space. The plates themselves aren't the problem. GP free weights feel heavy and real. Everything around them feels like it hasn't been cleaned since the ribbon cutting. No paper towels in the locker room. No soap in the showers. Dudes literally using the hand soap dispensers to get soap to take into the showers. Water pressure from the last decade. Toilet stalls full all morning like it's a bus station. People stare with no sport and no shame. After I rinsed, my slippers were decorated with pubic hair that did not clock in with me (see photo). No housekeepers anywhere in sight. Juice bar. Blow dryers. None of that makes a gym. Thanks to the Leads for their professionalism getting me in with ease but the comfort ends with the greeting. I hated being there so I trained hard and then couldn't wait to get out. Trial day one was the whole experiment. Dirty like EoS, smaller, darker, and proud of it. Do not recommend. I will not be back.

My previous experience at core power was pleasant, but today at the Hillcrest location was below my standards. To begin with, the classroom was so full and I felt like a can of sardines. Yes, is it warm in the classrooms as expected but the air in my class this morning felt musty and heavy. Very difficult to get your zen on there. I took a C2 class. The flow was fine, but the music was too upbeat and not appropriate for zen. I know the chain has a reputation of being extremely unhygienic, but I never expected to witness it first hand. I will be continuing to go to Yogabox from now on.
