I'm entering my 8th month of training with Andrew and this has been such a game-changer for me! I am so glad I found him because there is no way I would be this far along or love Pilates as much as I do without his guidance. Andrew has an amazing way of motivating you while keeping the energy in class upbeat and fun. Every session is challenging in the best possible way and he has a true gift for fixing form so you get the most out of every single movement. His attention to detail is incredible and his encouragement keeps me pushing myself more than I ever thought I could. He truly stands out as the best Pilates trainer in San Diego. Whether you are brand new or more advanced, whether you are a boy or a girl, young or old, Andrew is your guy. If you want a trainer who will inspire you, challenge you, and make you look forward to every single workout, look no further. read more

Beyond Pilates - Plenty of parking!! - Pilates Near Me - Santee, California

Such a great experience! The instructor, Kaitelin, was incredibly welcoming from the moment I walked in and made me feel comfortable right away. She were very helpful, explained everything clearly, and took the time to make sure everyone felt supported. You can tell they truly care about her students. I will be coming back to her classes!! read more

The reformers are the best! Andrew's classes are challenging but make you push through and grow. Clean studio, great instructors, variety of classes and great location. read more

I was so nervous joining this gym because I had never taken Pilates before. I'm so glad I did. The instructors are all very helpful and care about the techniques. Each class I've taken was amazing! It was always approachable and achievable to do the excercises. The gym is immaculately clean and all the machines are well maintained. My husband even said "wow Pilates is working ;)" aka my b*tt feels toned. lol. Sorry tmi. I even had to email Brad the owner a couple and he's such a nice person as well and very helpful. Totally thankful we have this out in East county. read more

I've really enjoyed the couple of times I've been! Lucy is an incredible teacher that knows her stuff! I bought a bunch of classes and feel like I'm actually getting toned and in shape. read more

I have belonged to several gyms in the past. I run marathons, take spin classes and do Zumba. My friend Robbin asked me to go with her to the Beyond Pilates in Santee and take Jessica's class. It was challenging but Jessica was patient and made sure I had the proper form. I also signed up for Alyssa's Jump Class. It was the perfect strength training exercise for my weekly schedule. Since the El Cajon location opened, I have been taking Sahar's 6 a.m. class to start my day. I just recently completed the Chicago Marathon. I PR'd my marathon and didn't have any cramping. I love pilates because it's a TOTAL BODY workout!! read more

Beyond Pilates - 10/19/23 Wearing pink for Breast Cancer. Sahar 6 a.m. class - Pilates Near Me - Santee, California

See all

Love Beyond Pilates , all the instructors are great. I personally follow Alissa and Bianca both very funny , professional and great at what they do . They are the best , Love and appreciate how Bianca is the only instructor that actually does hands on adjustments, to me that's the real deal , that's someone that cares for someone's safety and also allows the clients to feel the cues, not just hears them , for that she's the best. They have several locations which is great and their opening more , exciting ! read more

Best instructors teach here. Jess and Alyssa are the best!!!! You'll see results within a few sessions. Worth every dollar.

As a newbie to pilates, I did not know anything about it except the equipment looked fun. After about 14 classes, all was going well with fun instructors, and then I took a class with the instructor, Lucy Fox, everything changed! Her style was different from the other classes I had taken. She teaches classical, and I really enjoy learning this style. Lucy is a hands-on instructor. She takes the time to explain and make sure you are aware of your body positioning. I follow her wherever she is teaching and even increased the number of classes I take because she's that GREAT!! I have a lot to learn, but I know Lucy is teaching me the proper way so my foundation will be strong. The process is incredibly enjoyable, and I truly look forward to each class. Thank you, Lucy! Your passion is contagious! read more

I split my one day a week Pilates routine between the Del Cerro and Santee locations. Why not choose just one studio? Because I love how every Beyond Pilates instructor makes each class just a little different, with different exercises, different paces, and different focuses. I probably can't remember all the instructors by name but Brenda, Yadi, hilarious Kevin, Kristie (who REALLY pushes me hard) and everyone else are friendly, kind, experienced teachers who make each class worthwhile. I usually take the Beginners or the 1.5 classes and get a really good workout. My posture is better, I see toning occurring in my arms and legs, and I feel like I am doing something good for my body. You really ought to try it. Also, the front office has been very helpful if my wife and I have to cancel a class at the last minute due to an unexpected illness or scheduling conflict. read more

Have been attending classes at Beyond on and off since 2019 and I can confidently say it is one of the most well rounded studios in SD!!! Instructors are extremely skilled and there is variety! Jackie is an expert in traditional pilates and she will help you build an excellent foundation for whatever other classes you attend. Brad is also a delight. Super kind and understanding! -Lehi read more

I took Andrew's class today and he was such a kind and patient instructor. As someone new to Pilates, he offered a lot of help and instruction, which was greatly appreciated. I would love to start seeing him teach more classes at these studios!! read more

I love the Santee studio and the instructors. Chloe is so patient and has helped me rehab my knees. She is so good at what she does, I look forward to my classes with Ms. Chole in 2023. Thank you! read more

You guys have GOT to do something about your website, your app, and your customer service! I call then I get an answer 4 days later. I call again and get no answer. I had to show up to get an answer. I asked for a printout of class schedules, none, told to go on the app (which absolutely stinks!). I paid for the promotion yet when I try to schedule it, it doesn't take my login info (app). I try on the PC, I get in, try to schedule something, keeps making me pay again. When I drove there the 1st time, I was told to choose the promotions tab to schedule. Did that, still no go. Drove there again (cause no one answers any phones), no one there. I've been trying for weeks now to take a class. I've never encountered SO many obstacles to try out a gym! There isn't even a way to message the instructors!! read more

Wendy is an amazing instructor. Very friendly class, great vibes and smiles! I have bad knees and her class was challenging and it did not hurt my knees at all. After the class, my arms, chest and legs were sore, the good sore. The place is very clean and the equipment is new. It was a great workout! I highly recommend Wendy! Amazing!!! read more

I love love love this place and Alyssa is hands down the best. I feel like I get a great workout with her. I had a shoulder replacement & was sad because I didn't think I could ever workout again. I felt pathetic, gained a buncha weight and was just miserable. Basi Pilates and Alyssa have made me feel good again and I'm on the road to physical recovery and getting back in shape. Thank you! read more

This studio is awesome, I loved the instructors. Joe is amazing. I had never done reformer Pilates before, so this was a first for me. The instructors were patient and kind. The classes were really small, which is helpful for newbies like me. I got a 10 class special for $99! The studio also offers Groupon discounts for new customers. The scheduling system is very easy to use. They offer classes from 9 am to about 6:30. The only reason I won't be returning is because the membership itself is pretty pricey. read more

I usually go to La Mesa, but your membership allows you to go to either studio so one day I came here and had a class with Kimberly. It was beginning but it was a challenging beginning! At least I was challenged. Muscles I wasn't aware that I had were shaking. Kimberly walks around explaining each exercise and corrects people's forms, which I find incredibly helpful. read more

Before joining Beyond Pilates I had never attended a Pilates class. I was originally looking for a barre studio in East County that would also work with my 9-5 work schedule. After some research I realized there weren't many barre studios in east county or at least that I could find. Beyond Pilates offered some barre classes so I decided to give it a try with my husband since the new member special is so cheap! 6 classes for $20! We did a yoga class which hubby didn't care for so we switched up to pilates classes and I fell in love. All studios are clean and are only open for classes. If you have a question I suggest to email. They are pretty quick to respond. They offer different memberships based on the amount of classes you want per month. Your credit card is charged once a month based on the date you signed up. You are required to wear grip socks which you can buy at the studios before class and most cost approx $15. I enjoy going to pilates classes mostly but have done yoga and barre as well. I suggest trying different teachers to find those you connect with best. I haven't had a bad teacher in the year I've been a member but I definitely have my favorites. Also, I've compared their prices multiple times and they are usually extremely competitive! read more

I'd give more stars if possible. I honestly cannot say enough good things about this studio!! I've been with them for a little more than a year and a half and have experienced a nearly full rehabilitation of my ACL, but feel even more deeply that my mind and body has been transformed. I am so appreciative of everything Brad (the owner) has put together with the HIGH quality of his Instructors, the creativity of the classes offered and, just as importantly, the cleanliness of the studio. (Side note: I didn't even realize how important this was to me until I went to another studio (not his) and it looked like it has not been cleaned in weeks: both equipment and floors) For all these things I am eternally grateful. Tabitha and Daisy are my all time favorite instructors, though I haven't had a bad, or even mediocre, instructor yet! These two are very different instructors, but both adhere to the Principles of Pilates in every class they teach. They also mix it up constantly so that we never have a "routine" class. It flows nice, and they are always mindful of safety and modifications needed for injuries and age (both of which apply to me). Tabitha teaches a new class - Therapeutic Stretch on the reformer, and it is the most amazing class!!! I personally don't love Yoga, but this class lengthens and strengthens muscles in a very fluid way that feels so so good. Tabitha - you are a Master of ALL you teach. I adore you. Brad, keep up the high quality standard you have set. It shines above. Thank you! read more

I took my first pilates class in a long time. I mean it has been years. Like less than 10 but more than 5 years since I've stepped into a studio. And man I got my butt kicked but in the most awesome way! LOL Our instructor Cassandra was super sweet, and she helped me with my movements to make sure I was in the right position. She was also very encouraging and helpful when it came to adjusting us and suggesting modifications. I work out regularly and this was one of the harder workouts I have done. It's no wonder that all the Pilates enthusiasts are so long, fit and lean! I'm looking forward to taking another class soon. read more

Joining BASI Pilates a few years ago was my BEST DECISION YET for both physical & emotional well-being & has got me through major surgery & is like ongoing physical therapy for my body & mind. This sanitized studio boasts BRAND NEW EQUIPMENT & EXCELLENT, MOTIVATING INSTRUCTORS. 2 new favorites who provide stellar & personalized instruction are Sahar and Chloe, both of whom I adore! Sahar challenges with awesome classes that fly by with her upbeat tempo of energetic choreography infused with a healthy dose of humor. Chloe's ballet background, positivity, & anatomy knowledge shine as she mixes up her amazing classes expertly targeting the entire body. Brad goes out of his way to accommodate his members, providing an outstanding studio experience & even went so far as to provide reimbursement classes to compensate for initial Covid lockdown, even though online support was continually available. BASI Pilates is THE BEST read more

This is my favorite pilates studio and I love going here even though it's a bit of a drive for me. Wendy is energetic, enthusiastic, encouraging, and helpful. She makes sure you're doing it right and I always get a good workout from her. I am pretty sore (in a good way) the next day when I take her more advanced classes. Joe is funny and will make you laugh through your workout. He pays attention to everyone in the class and remembers their names. I get a good ab workout with all the laughing and I always leave happy. 5 stars for a positive experience, amazing instructors, and a great workout! read more

Called to schedule an appt and ask questions. Called at 10:30 AM and went to voice mail. Then said mail box full. Not the type of business I would run!. read more

I've been taking classes here for a couple months and have finally found a workout that I personally love. I like the app and that I can schedule 24/7. The customer service On the mindbody app is awesome. I accidentally cancelled a class and they resigned me up - immediately. They have morning and evening classes as well as the La Mesa Studio not far away. I have my favorite instructors already and have never had one problem getting into the class I want (unless I wait until it's too late!) or finding the instructors I want. Highly recommend this studio and Pilates!!! read more

Happy this is open again! I am looking forward to learning more and using the Basi reformers!

Yoga class review: I bought a groupon excited to have a yoga class close by and went for my first class at the Santee studio. I signed up for a candle light gentle yoga class and other studios have always blown me away with these types of classes. I went in super positive left annoyed. First the teacher lit scented candles.... All I have to say is use unscented /tea lights!! With the wonderful deep breathing we did I left with a horrible headache. The class had some good moments but right when I had expected some longer hip openers she had us doing series of crunches? Eh... All I wanted was some gentle yoga to melt into bliss land!! It ended with less than 2 min of savasana/ resting pose. Blah. I am planning on using up the rest of my group on at their other studios and see if it's any better. Cross your fingers. read more

Just finished my first Pilates class ever! Tried the Beginner Reformer class with Wendy and had such a good time! Very challenging but I can't wait to see how my body changes! Kimberly and Wendy are amazing instructors!! You will need grip socks for the Pilates classes. You can buy them at the studio if needed or you could plan ahead and buy from Amazon for more of a selection of colors! read more

Now that I have been a member of the Beyond Pilates group for 2 months now, have tried all of their locations and met most of the instructors, I feel like it's time to share my experience. My journey all started with a groupon purchase because I had always wanted to try pilates, but wasn't sure where to start. This was by far the BEST groupon purchase I have ever made. I was able to take 10 classes in a period of 30 days, at any of their locations for an affordable price. What I loved most about my experience, is that I never once felt pressured to sign up. This was a HUGE deal to me because most fitness groups will constantly call or email you trying to get you to sign up. That wasn't the case at all here, and was able to make my decision when the time was right for me. Prior to joining, I was never comfortable going to gyms, or fitness groups. Something about it just always intimated me, or it felt "Clicky". I have never felt that way with the Beyond Pilates group. Everyone is super friendly, and they come in all shapes and sizes. The instructors are all extremely helpful and don't push you to do anything your not comfortable with. I also love that the classes aren't too crowded. Typically it's between 5-10 people in a class. I have tried several instructors, but by far my favorites are ALISSA PANKOW & ALI CALVARUSO. I love that their energy is very calm/relaxed, and that they correct you if you are doing the position incorrectly. I have also tried all of their studio locations, and the Santee location is my absolute favorite! The studio is spacious, there is plenty of parking, and they have the best schedule. They have an app that you can download which is super helpful! I am able to easily view the schedule for each location, and sign up for classes. You can tell that the owner, Brad, really puts a lot of effort into this business. He really cares about the quality of service you are getting. Anytime I have had a question or an issue, he always responds quickly, and with a solution. He has even called me after hours one time just to assure me that he addressed a concern I had. It was nothing major, but I was impressed that he actually took his time to follow up. I will admit, the membership is a little pricey, and not something I am used to, but for me it was worth it because I finally found something that I actually enjoy, and something that keeps me committed. Not to mention, you get access to ALL of their studios/classes including Spin, Barre, Yoga, and zumba. I don't ever get bored! The Beyond Pilates Group has truly changed my health! And you can't put a price tag on that. Tip to new customers: - Try afew classes, with different instructors, before making any judgments. Every instructor is different, and you need to find your best teaching style. - Arrive to class 5-10 minutes early, don't be late! They will not wait for you. Tip to owner: -Offer a Reformer 1.5 at the Santee Location -Add a location in Mission Valley & UTC (If you plan on growing) read more

Took Yoga with Maritza this morning and it was fantastic way to start the day!! The class was a little small but it gave for one one on one instruction with my practice. She had a very gentle presence and was extremely knowledgable. I feel she taught a class that I think would benefit every level of yogi. The facilities is very clean, new and beautiful. I look forward to coming back and trying their other classes. read more

Update: I went to book last week and I can't find the only instructor I really connected with. There is a LOT of turnover, which makes me wonder why they can't retain employees! I went to my first class today, Beginner Reformer, and it was awesome! Kimberly was our instructor and she was great. She was very helpful and took time to adjust my machine even though the class was full. Her directions were clear and she gave options to make it a bit easier or harder depending on your level. I bought the new member special, 6 classes for $20 - what a great deal! read more

Just want to give a shout out to Brad at beyond Pilates He has been more than accommodating Regarding my account and my schedule I can't say enough great things about this business and group of instructors Keep up the great work read more

I've taken Beginning Reformer with Wes and another with Kimberly. They are both great instructors with different workouts so there is lots of variety. They explain the exercises and walk around to make sure everyone has good form. I find the workouts very challenging and I'm feeling muscles being worked that have been long forgotten. I love the Candle Light Yoga class with Maritza. I felt so good after and had a great night's sleep. She walks around and gently shows you the correct form and modifications if needed. read more

My first attempt for class was at 6pm on a Tuesday. I was stuck in a little traffic and got stuck at every single red light. I got to the studio at 6:03 and was told the class was full. Seeing as this was my first experience I was a confused and told the instructor I had already reserved my spot online. She informed me that my spot had been given away because I was late and I would be refunded. I almost didn't come back.. But I already purchased classes and didn't want to waste the money. I am SO glad I gave it another shot. The instructors at this studio are amazingly trained and make your workout exciting. Now, I fully appreciate the attendance policy. The instructors are fully in tune with the workout and keep the pace nice and smooth. No distractions (: ***UPDATE*** Two weeks in and I am already seeing results. I tried Pilates at the La Mesa location and took their Spin class.. And I am obsessed!!!! #skinnybyturkeyday read more

5 star all the way this place is very quant and has small classes its very sanitary there i give them 5nstars for thr service and there sales. read more

Tabitha is a force at 6am! The best studios in San Diego. Every class is exceptional & I always leave feeling better than when I came in! Every instructor is always willing to make adjustments or modifications when needed & you don't get that at every Pilates studio. read more

At first I was afraid to join this studio because I have been to another pilates studio in the past and it was okay, but there was a bit of arrogance in the air.. BUT this studio is completely different! I have had 2 different instructors so far and they both have been great! I am very out of shape and had a snowboarding accident recently which kept me immobile for almost 3 months! Ania has made me feel like I am capable of learning and rebuilding. Thank you Ania for helping me out. I have a long way to go in terms of getting fit and rebuilding, but I'm sure if I keep going, I will get there.. thank you. They also have a great new member deal, so check them out! read more

I continue to come to this location because of the outstanding instructors and the personalized service. The convenience of online transactions and scheduling make it unbeatable! read more

I'm so glad I made the decision to become a member at Beyond Pilates. I've been taking Pilates/barre classes with BP for a year and a half and have noticed a huge difference in the areas I had been focusing on for years at the gym (core and booty). I've gone to all of the locations and they are all great, but this one is the most convenient for me. Every teacher I have had were great instructors, but I especially look forward to Alissa's Pilates classes and Kellie D's barre classes. They are challenging but fun teachers, and all around great people. I highly recommend Beyond Pilates! read more
