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

Great Studio! Clean, Friendly Trainers who pay attention to your form and challenge you to perform at your best. Go! You will be very happy you did! read more

I might be mildly obsessed with this place. I've taken classes with Joe, Laureen, Tabitha, and Kristy. They're all great at what they do and super nice. I started with a Groupon and when that expired I purchased a membership. Super fun and great workout! read more

Beyond Pilates is located in East County Santee. The studio is state of the art, polished and sparkling clean; with all new equipment. There is a lot of space, with room to breathe ......even with many participants in one class. I find this specific studio to be so much more user-friendly than other Pilates studios I have attended. It is aesthetically designed and sound system for music played during class is wonderful. The instructor Ania is very knowledgable, and demonstrates all Pilates exercise with clarity and patience. There are classes in yoga and the barre there, as well. A teachers training program is underway,as well. After my first class I felt the benefits immediately and continue to realize Its benefits for me to be over and beyond other exercise programs. Pilates exercise on a regular basis will for sure promise a beautiful and strong body in a minimal amount of time. I am on my 10th class @ two classes per week and my posture and core strength is stronger after every class. I stand straighter and my body is already reforming to what it was in younger years. ( I am in my 60s now and have had ballet training.) read more

I have been going to the studio on Mission Gorge since they opened and now also take classes at the La Mesa studio. All of the instructors are very knowledgeable and nice. There are SO MANY classes to choose from, at many different times with the two studios to choose from! I absolutely LOVE Beyond Pilates and highly recommend it. The owner is amazing and really works to accommodate everyone's needs with class schedules and such. read more

I started at Beyond Pilates with a groupon. I had tried other pilate studios and have found Beyond Pilates to have the most fantastic instructors. Wendy and Tabatha are both patient and firm.. They make me challenge myself to do more and not to give up. I have been doing it for 4 months and sadly must say goodbye the first of March. I wish I could take them with me to my new home in Ohio. I have recommended the Santee Studio to my friends and family. Thanks also to Brad for always understanding when I could not figure out what the heck I was doing with my schedules I will miss you all so much PLEASE OPEN A STUDIO IN OHIO!!!!!!! read more

This place is my 2nd home! I am probably here 6-7x a week and sometimes 2x a day. Some of the instructors have become good friends of mine! The best of the best!! Ania and Brad the owners are so amazing and truly receptive! The best instructors you will find (well my favorite at least) are Kimberly, Alissa, Tabitha, Carina and Katherine! I just adore each and every one of them!! They all have there own ways, but they kick your butts!! I always feel amazing leaving and cannot wait to come back! You will never find a better studio read more

Great new Pilates studio to join! Super close to my house, friendly instructors, great hours and clean facility. I never liked going to the normal gym and this place has been a great alternative and easy for me to commit too. Highly recommend! read more

I have been to three classes and have enjoyed them all. I am trying the beginning Pilates this week and can't wait. Ania is a great instructor and very motivating. Kimberly is great with instructions, very clear on what I need to do. Very excited Beyond-Pilates opened in Santee. Highly recommend you try it out. read more

Beyond Pilates is awesome. The teachers are amazing, all a bit different, and all bring something different to the classes. At 64 years old, I have a few body limitations, and sometimes it seems like I'm the oldest, most overweight, out of shape person in the class. But they are very accommodating to any limitations anyone has. I've never been pressured to do anything that I wasn't comfortable doing, I was always given options if I could't do certain exercises. Though I've done cardio for 30+ years, Pilates is a whole new ball game for me and I absolutely love it. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun, highly effective exercise program. read more

Coming from a background in yoga, I was intimidated to try pilates. After trying a few different studios I chose to become a member at Beyond Pilates. Katharine D. is a fantastic instructor! She is very knowledgeable about exercise, nutrition, and health. She is also warm and funny! She made the 6am workouts fun! Joe M. is also a great instructor. He has an approach that attacks fitness in a fun and mindful way. I highly recommend these two! read more

One of the best experiences of my life. I started in March 2015 after a bad siatica problem, when i first tryed to touch the ground I could ony make it mid shin. Now July i can touch the ground flat handed. Also changed my eating along with pilates and walking and have lost 15 pounds. I love beyond pilates! !! Thanks Ania for coming to Santee read more

Every year I come to San Diego for the summer with my kids to visit family for a month and I'm always mad at myself for not working out during that time. This year I found the Beyond Pilates studio in Santee and it has been the best money I spent all summer! I am going home from vacation in better shape than I arrived! They offer multiple classes and times that work with anyone's schedule/ skill level and all of the instructors were great! Wendy and Tabitha were especially amazing and I'm really going to miss them back home! The studio is super clean and the reformer machines they have are top notch! You must try this Pilates studio...you won't regret it! read more

I cannot say enough positive things about this studio. First and foremost, the owner is accommodating & personable. The instructors are all really good, and put together some good classes. I started in beginning classes and have worked my way up to 2.0. I love the concept of Pilates, and strengthening my core. The studio is clean, and the equipment is high quality....and you get all of this with a really reasonable price. I've checked other studios, you literally cannot beat the price. Want your butt super kicked?? Take Wendy's class! read more

Love this studio. Alissa Pankow is my favorite instructor. It is challenging and so rewarding to finish a class. Been doing it for 4 weeks and I can see small changes. I mean it didn't take me 4 weeks to get out of shape. Right? read more

I can officially say that I'm obsessed with Pilates and Barre!! I've been visiting this studio for about 3 months now and I love it. I started with a groupon and quickly decided that I wanted to become a member of Beyond Pilates. What I like about the studio is that it's intimate. There are usually only 7 people max during the times that I go, so I feel like you get a more specialized workout. Also, the fact that I can do barre OR Pilates is awesome! Most of the larger chain studios offer one or the other. All of the instructors are professional and knowledgable. For Barre, I love Katharine. She is super encouraging and motivating during her class. As for the workout itself, it's tough but so worth it. Pilates is a very toning workout and strenuous at times. But the reformer machine makes it fun! Barre is a little harder in my opinion but manageable. I'm never so sore that I can't walk the next day. I'm so happy that I joined! read more

Love this studio and the instructors! I have taken classes at other studios and this is my favorite. The instructors, especially Ania, are very knowledgeable. They walk around to make sure that you are doing the exercises properly and will help you correct when needed. Good classes with attention to each person's needs. I have taken the barre and pilates. All have been a great work out! Definitely a studio I would recommend. read more

I love doing Barre class with the owner Ania, She is very good and is very personal, professional and has great deal of knowledge. Im also looking forward to taking her pilates class. read more

All the classes are amazing. Loved this studio and all the instructors were friendly, informative and helpful. I must say expect a challenge when you take the barre class. It will definitely give you a workout. Pilates reformer is an awesome way to work out without putting stress on your back read more

I had heard of Beyond Pilates through a friend of mine. Over the summer, I decided to give it a try. I have a hard time committing to exercise programs, but Beyond Pilates offers a variety of different exercise activities that gave me options. The instructors at the Santee location have been so kind and helpful. What really got me hooked was the Yoga class with Kellie. I'm excited to be on a new journey and to try more classes. read more

I have visiting this studio since July. It is clean, the equipment is well maintained and the instructors are all knowledgeable and friendly. When working out my membership the owner was quick to respond and also friendly and helpful. All the classes are motivating and challenging. Definitely worth looking at and trying a class. read more

I was searching for a gym that offered pilates and yoga just as part their schedule. That now how pilates and yoga with clang and bang. To my delight this studio only did pilates, yoga, and barre. And its in Santee. I did a drive by and saw the beautiful serene dwsign. I signed up for the 6 classes for $20. I was so impressed with Ania and attention clients. I'm working on a back problem and no hesitation she modified the positions. Ania gives everyone confidence like she is in your corner. I was so in need of a place like this as we all are so please give them a tey read more

I LOVE my new Pilates studio. I just relocated to East County and I was concerned that there would not be a quality yoga/pilates/barre studio here. Beyond Pilates goes BEYOND my expectations. Not only is it a beautiful facility, but the instructors are amazing. The owner, Ania, is incredible in her knowledge, experience, and professionalism. I love this place and I am so grateful to have a quality studio close by. It is very conveniently located, right off the 52. Whether you are new to Pilates and Yoga, or have been at it for many years, the workouts are tailored for you. There is no form of exercise that will transform your body more quickly than Pilates, Barre and Yoga-either independently or in combination. There are monthly memberships available as well as specials. I am hooked. Thank you Beyond Pilates. See you later today! read more

I have taken 8 beginners reformer classes here and I love it! The instructor, Tabitha Stine, is awesome! Even though I'm in my forties, I'm new to exercising and Tabitha has been so helpful and patient with my lack of coordination and awkwardness. ;) I was really nervous about taking classes but I now I really look forward to going. Thank you! read more

This is a top notch studio. I work out more often then ever because of the great instructors. I would highly recommend this studio. The classes are reasonably priced and worth every penny. read more

I have been going to this studio since mid-March. I had also started going to another studio in town but I love Beyond Pilates so much more. The classes are always different, so they challenge your body and you don't get bored. I have been able to tone up and regain my abdominal muscles, which I thought I might never see again. Ania and Alissa are great, I take both of their classes and enjoy them. If you are at all scared or intimidated by Pilates, you should not be! Don't hesitate and come join a class, you will be glad you did. read more

Love this place! I started here with a Groupon that let me have a month of 8 classes at this location or the La Mesa one, and I am glad I did! As a complete beginner to yoga and Pilates on the reformer, I felt nervous before coming in to my classes. All that dissipated coming into the studio and meeting the instructors. Alissa is an amazing Pilates instructor, and was clear, concise and patient in her instruction. I got a great workout, and left feeling energized and confident. If you are interested in Pilates, go to her class. Also, if you like yoga Laura's Deep Stretch/Gentle Flow Yoga was so good. Her instructions were easy enough for me to follow as a newbie, and her adjustment was pro. The class was more than worth my time, and felt incredible. If you ar looking to get into Pilates or yoga, I recommend Beyond Pilates. read more

The Beyond Pilates Studio rocks! The workouts are challenging, fun and well-rounded. I've been an athlete most of my life and have been exposed to many styles of exercise (I am also a fitness instructor); however, the Beyond Pilates reformer and barre classes are uniquely challenging. I walked into my first class (Beyond Pilates) on June 2nd thinking "ok, this will be easy, it's just another class". NOPE, I was totally wrong! These classes are designed to transform your body from head to toe--and they do. Within a month, I noticed my abs (especially my obliques), legs, glutes and arms were looking stronger and leaner. I've never experienced such fast results (not even when I did P90X or Insanity). I attend classes (Beyond Pilates, All Levels Reformer and/or Barre) 3 times per week. If you are ready to sweat, gain lean muscle and sculpt your body, Beyond Pilates is the place to be. Ania and her fitness staff are top-notch, experienced instructors who understand how to get your body toned and strong in a safe, effective and pressure-free manner. If you're considering trying a class or purchasing a membership, DO IT, you will not be disappointed. read more

I love Beyond Pilates. It is a very comfortable, beautiful studio. I look forward to each class and the instructors are great!

All of the instructors are wonderful, but I would like to write a review specifically for Kourtney. She has impeccable attention to detail and really focuses on form so that I get the most of my 50 minute workout. She works really hard to make corrections on all students, and genuinely cares about each person in her class, making adjustments when needed. I have learned a lot from her! read more

Always wanted to do Pilates but could never afford it. I'm so happy I made the right choice!! All the instructors are awesome!! Packages are reasonably priced! Conveniently located. So parking is easy!! Love this place!!! read more

Love, love, love the teachers, studio and the classes, Each class I took was so much fun but challenging at the same time. there are always options and variations given to us so people on differ net levels can get great workout. The brand new class All Levels Reformer/Jump is simply awesome. I hope Ania will add few more to the schedule (at some point). I also like when teachers asks us what parts of the body we want to work on. I appreciate that the teachers listen to us and always very friendly and helpful! read more

I started with a Groupon over a year ago! Great clean place to work out Kristy has been great very challenging and keeps you going, she was super good when I first started explaining everything so I didn't feel out of place!! Totally recommend all the studios... read more

I bought the Groupon and e-mailed the manager/owner? with some questions. He was very prompt in answering my 'newbie' questions. That was the good part. I went to my first class and told Kristy that I was a 'newbie'. She briefly showed me how the reformer worked. During the class I received minimal instruction from her. As a matter of fact, the guy next to me helped me more then Kristy did! I realize that she needs to observe everyone, but I found her to be very bland and non-caring. This is the first Yelp review that I have ever written, but I was really turned off by her attitude. I realize that I am not the most coordinated person in the world, but she made me feel as if I was a nuisance. It is too bad that I had this experience with Kristy, because I did like the Pilates itself. My Groupon has ran out or I would try another instructor. The clients that I worked out with were all great. Also, the yoga area is very small. read more

This is an amazing Pilates studio! The instructors are incredible. They answer all your questions and lead amazing classes. You get such a good work out regardless of your fitness level. Pilates is absolutely the best way to get in shape and stay flexible. I used to be an aerobics/step instructor but this is the best workout I've ever done. Katharine D, Wendy K. and Kristy are incredible instructors. They motivate you and work you hard all at the same time. I can't recommend this studio highly enough! Love it! Great for all fitness levels! read more

I am so happy that Beyond Pilates has opened in Santee. Having a studio in East County that offers Pilates and Yoga in one place is wonderful. Ania is a great teacher and a lovely person. The studio is clean and bright. Right now they are offering a new client special of 6 classes for $20 so definitely come and try it out. read more

Fantastic! After taking just two of my intro classes, I knew this was something I was not going to give up. I've worked out forever (68 years old) and these classes are by far the best workout ever. I own just about every Beachbody DVD series, and there is no comparison with the caliber of the workout. I took barre the other day and my buns still burn. Amazing class! I love, love, love this place! read more

I've been going to Beyond Pilates for several months now and love it. The instructors are wonderful, the studio is always clean, and the atmosphere is not intimidating. Ania keeps the classes fresh to keep everyone interested, is very motivating, and is always generous with praises. I don't even live in Santee and yet I take the drive over the 52 two to three times a week to take classes here instead of joining the studio 1/4 mile from the house. If you're not sure Pilates is for you, then I would recommend you take advantage of the introductory offer of six classes for $20 -- no risk and all gain. read more
