I've been suffering from carpal tunnel for the past three years. My physical therapist said that I needed more upper body strength workouts and barre classes at Tuck is a WHOLE-body workout! Seriously, I feel like I get my money worth. It took five classes to see changes in my body. I don't suffer from back pains or carpal tunnel as much anymore. Don't get me wrong. It's hard work to get in shape but I enjoy going here because I love how passionate everyone is at teaching their classes. They genuinely want you to get the most out of your workout and they do a fantastic job in creating a variety so you're not bored doing the same routine over and over again. If you're nervous or on the fence at giving this place a try. DON'T! This place welcomes everyone of all levels. (trust me I came worst than a beginner and Sandy had to correct me all the time! Luckily, it's not as much as it used to be, lol) Honestly this cute studio is the gem of Haverford~ I'm a lot happier both physically and emotionally because of Tuck~ btw if you're looking for a challenge, def give barre bounce a try~ it's super fun and I might see you there

I highly recommend Susie Solomon for all levels of Pilates instruction. I started training with…read moreSusie as a beginner, and immediately fell in love with her teaching style! Susie is compassionate and intuitive. She expertly taught me the subtle nuances of each exercise, and I was truly amazed at how my body transformed. Susie's studio is professionally designed and equipped with state of the art Pilates machines. The one-on-one instruction allows for a quality experience. Before I found Susie, I was enrolled in group Pilates classes at another studio. Unfortunately, the lack of personal attention led to bad form and poor practicing habits. Susie was able to correct my practice in no time! I am truly grateful to be working with such an experienced and passionate teacher. Thank you, Susie!!

I can't say enough good things about Barre3, and specifically Barre3 Rosemont. I have been doing…read moreBarre3 for 5(?) years, and have been a member at Rosemont for 1.5. The owner, studio manager, and all the instructors are truly amazing. It's evident they all put so much care and intention into creating their classes and they each have their own unique, fun, and challenging styles that they bring with them each and every day. You know some studios where you have the good and bad instructors? They're all great here. :-) I also love how they are continually adapting and incorporating new concepts and research so you never feel like the workout gets too easy or boring. Barre3 has changed my life and my relationship with exercise/my body. I love starting my mornings at Barre3 Rosemont and always leave feeling confident, energized, and ready to take on the day. 12/10 recommend--the only thing you'll regret is not starting sooner!

The staff at the front desk were impersonal and not particularly welcoming or informative when I arrived. Similarly, the employees at the Life Time Café seemed disengaged and unwelcoming.

Based on this experience, I would not recommend this location.

Belly Pilates review:…read more Ugh, I really wish I had done my research before scheduling a session with Kelly McBride. The first red flag should have been that she had very few reviews from clients posted or available online (and one in particular that I read afterwards sounded very similar to my own less-than-positive experience with her). The second red flag was that when I reached out to Kelly to schedule with her, the rate she gave me ($125 for one session) was notably higher than the rate advertised on her website, and she indicated that the meeting would need to be an in-home session at my residence since she was in the process of moving (and thus did not have access to her usual studio or equipment). She showed up to our session without any equipment whatsoever. During the session, she gave me several exercises to practice at home (most of which I had already learned in prenatal yoga - e.g., cat/cows & squats) and a few that involved use of a 65cm exercise ball geared towards strengthening the pelvic floor. Since Kelly showed up without any equipment, the only reason I feel like she was even able to give me the exercise ball moves was because there was an exercise ball available for us to use in the fitness center of my apartment building... otherwise, would she have just taught me cat/cows & squats, which I already knew?? I just felt very misled by Kelly & the services she advertised on her website, so I left the session feeling pretty disappointed (and $125 lighter in my pocket). When I initially scheduled the session with her, I told Kelly in no uncertain terms that what I was looking for was the comprehensive assessment/evaluation advertised on her website & an "exercise prescription" that I could continue on my own at home up through & following delivery. There was no "history intake", "Belly Screen", "DR assessment", "mat workout" or any sort of tangible "exercise prescription" provided during our session (despite those being advertised on her website as being part of the initial evaluation session). Copied below is, verbatim, the only "exercise prescription" that was provided during our session (which Kelly sent to me via text message): Space Gravity Movement Belly big 3 Breath PF Abs ...That's it! No illustrated diagrams, printouts or other exercise descriptions for me to go on following our session. I wasn't sure what would be provided as far as a take-home guide, so I actually brought my own pen & paper to the session to take notes (which I'm glad I did, since the "space, gravity, movement" text message I received afterwards wasn't at all helpful). Giving clients an "exercise prescription" that consists of telling them to work on their abs, pelvic floor, & breath through space, gravity & movement is about as helpful as a hole in the head. From the outset of the session, Kelly expressed that she could only help me so much in a single session...but that she offered a 6-session program that would help get me ready for labor. Sure lady, let me pay you $800-900 for six more sessions of "space, gravity & movement". I got the sense that Kelly was pushing an agenda for financial gain (i.e., her side business of private Pilates sessions) rather than truly & genuinely helping me as a paying client. Needless to say, I will not be scheduling additional sessions. As pregnant women, we spend SO much money as it is on maternity clothes, prenatal yoga/exercise, chiropractic & massage services (none of which is covered by insurance!) and the last thing we need is to be taken for a ride by a salesman peddling $125/hour sessions that don't really help.
