I like to switch between these two studios which gives me way more options for classes. I like the set up here and love that it's darker than other studios I've visited. All of the instructors have been very helpful and hands on with the exception of Shelby so I try to avoid her classes. Finding parking has never been an issue for me but I can see it getting packed during peak times. If you're new, try to go 5-10 minutes earlier to ask questions about the mega reformer as the classes fly by. It can be intimidating but just focus on form and don't forget to take grippy socks as they charge $20 for them.

If members choose this gym over other options, it's because a higher level of service, amenities, and overall member experience are being presented. At $100/month, consistency and follow-through matter. There have been recurring issues with amenities that should be addressed more proactively. The ginger/wellness shots are rarely available, basic supplies such as plastic cups have taken weeks to be replenished, and the green towels used for sweat are often slow to be restocked. With the ongoing AC issues, members are encouraged to use the white cold towels to cool down. I also kindly reached out directly by email to raise these concerns. It took approximately one to two weeks to receive a response, and while an explanation was provided, I would have appreciated more focus on the resolution, timeline, and next steps. When the same concerns are being raised repeatedly by members, there should be a clear process for following through. The manager's approach to member interaction could also be improved. Her demeanor can come across as very dry and disengaged. Members may say hello without receiving a response or acknowledgment. In a women-only environment that is built around community and comfort, approachable and consistent leadership makes a significant difference. I'm not someone who wants to bring down a business. I raised my concerns directly first because I believe issues should be addressed through communication and collaboration. Since I did not see enough action afterward, I felt Yelp was the appropriate next step to share my experience. Thank you.

Marianne didn't even bother with the side eye, she just dropped the hardest class ever. Ten minutes in, I was sweating like I'd been waterboarded with coconut water. Halfway through, I started seeing my ancestors. By the end, I wasn't even working out anymore, I was just bargaining with Jesus like, "If you get me through this, I swear I'll foam roll every night." Joking aside Marianne has a great class, my favorite instructor here so far...

She emphasized proper form and I learned the exercises without hurting myself. But I needed to start group lessons because privates are just too expensive and I wanted to start going more often. This studio is terrific. I think the prices are very reasonable and classes are small enough that the instructor can give individual attention as needed. My favorite instructor is Rosana. She's very knowledgeable and gives an excellent butt-busting workout! Studio is cool, clean with easy parking.

Going on this retreat was one of the most heart-opening, healing experiences of my life. I came with the ladies I'd met in class, but I left with a true sisterhood--soul connections that feel like they were always meant to be. Everything about the retreat felt so intentional and nourishing, from the delicious meals to the movement that helped me feel strong, soft, and deeply connected to my body. Even the elements felt like they were holding us--the wind especially, which carried our conversations, our laughter, and maybe even our old stories away. The downtime was just as powerful--lounging by the pool, barefoot chats under the sun, quiet moments that turned into deep conversations and big laughs. I left feeling lighter, softer, and more rooted in myself. It was pure magic.

I really wanted to like this place and there are many reasons to but not for me. I'll start with…read morethe PROS. The instructors are passionate and friendly, supportive and enthusiastic. They guide you through the exercises and keep it positive. The studio has lots of time slots available and the pricing is fair compared to other studios. Now to the CONS The studio is dirty. I've only gone twice and both times it's back to back classes so the studio doesn't get cleaned in between. Both times, I saw lots of hair on the floor, my mat, in the reformer and just lots of other crumbs and boogers, whatever else accumulated throughout the day. The class is designed like a circuit and you don't use the reformer the entire time, both times juts one exercise used the machine. It's very strange to be in a Pilates studio and not use the machines more. The equipment (weights, benches,etc) is worn out, cracked, dirty and just needs updating. Overall, I got a great workout regardless and was sweating my brains out so if this stuff is not an issue, you will enjoy the class as everyone else in there is happy to be there and clearly been coming for a while. But for me, I really wanted a reformer class that utilizes the machines for the majority, if not the entirety of the class.
