Jen & Rebecca = Game Changers…read more I'm totally hooked on Mighty Pilates in Larkspur! The classes are amazing, and the instructors really know their stuff. Jen and Rebecca are my absolute favorites -- they actually walk around, correct your form, and make sure you're not just sweating but moving safely too. I probably shouldn't be spilling the secret (it'll make it harder to book classes with them, lol), but they're seriously the best.

Were someone to ask me for a single-word assessment of my Club Pilates experience it would be…read more"inconsistent". Though I've settled on an overall 4-star rating, there have been several visits where I'd not have rated it above 3-stars and once a single-star experience. But overall, if what you seek is a group exercise class, Club Pilates, with its clean, well-organized space and abundance of class offerings will suffice. A friend of mine owned a Club Pilates franchise and she described to me the most difficult part of the experience was hiring and keeping good staff. I imagine that remains a challenge, possibly because many of the best Pilates instructors might opt to work with a smaller class size, where they could more easily oversee correct movement and body-part placements. When a friend heard that I was going here she questioned how instructors manage these important Pilates concepts and I had to admit: Often, not at all. The key to a great experience here is twofold: find the class description you like then find an instructor you also like, who leads that class. This can be a challenge. The sign-up system is via the Club Pilates app and it's easy, but those who've already figured out the above tend to fill those classes quickly. Club Pilates is far from my idea of an ideal Pilates experience but sometimes good enough is okay too. That's exactly what I've found this Club Pilates to be and if I can ever get the classes and instructors I desire on a regular basis that opinion will certainly improve.

So recently I started going to ROC Pilates classes with instructor Christine (as well as streaming yoga classes from Jessamyn Stanley of Every Body Yoga through the Underbelly app - highly recommend :). Pilates is so much more than a workout! This mind-body practice will target muscles you never even knew you had, and includes stretches that feel ahhh-mazing. I would recommend committing to a couple of classes a week to begin to understand the foundations of pilates eg learning the basic moves, getting the breathing down, eventually getting into your flow! You may have to fumble a bit through the first few classes because you are doing unfamiliar moves and learning new ways to move your body. Consistency is key, I've been doing the classes for almost 2 months now & I finally have my rhythm down. It feels really good, and I'm improving my balance, coordination, posture, and confidence. I feel strong! Christine is an excellent instructor. She is nonjudgemental and kind. She gives individualized attention to ensure your form is properly aligned, and to incrementally guide you to more advanced moves. Also the space is calming, clean, with brand new equipment and sustainable touches (eg machines are cleaned with lemongrass & tea tree oil, and there are hand towels in bathroom as opposed to paper towels). Wonderful experience :)

I also book through ClassPass and have found it to be really reliable for getting into classes here.

NOW Power Yoga is a heated yoga studio with great energy!…read more As I am getting older, I realize I do need to focus on rehabilitating and making sure my body has the tools to maintain strength. Yoga always felt a little too slow for me without being challenging. That is definitely not the case with classes at NOW Power Yoga! The studio itself is a pretty big room that get heated for each class. I especially enjoy that each class is often powered by modern music with a heavy beat. The instructors are super positive and help set the mood. Depending on the class, there are some that will focus on weights versus holding moves. While I highly recommend, I would say for beginners to yoga who are not too familar with the moves may have a hard time following along. Recommend bringing a yoga mat, towel, and water bottle to class because you are guaranteed to sweat! You can also bring a refillable bottle as well since they have water stations. I also appreciate that they have a shower. Because it shares a parking lot with other businesses, I would caution that depending on the time of day parking can get difficult so may want to come early at peak times to ensure you get a spot in time. The same for the class itself! NOW Power Yoga is a worthy visit especially if you are looking for a heated yoga class!

I have been to all of the popular ones (X'Core, BodyRok, Mighty Pilates, MNTStudio) and PPW will always be my #1. I've found that other studios are either way too easy or too fast without proper form instruction; PPW is the perfect balance with the highest quality instructors. The studio is clean and it's in a perfect location with ample parking. The only thing that could make the experience better would be to enforce the no cellphone policy during class and to limit late entries (there are a couple of repeat offenders who all the regulars know about). Besides that, I wouldn't change a thing.

The overall vibe was really nice, and…read morethe music had a perfect tone -- upbeat enough to keep you motivated but still calming and focused. You do have to wear Pilates socks, so make sure to bring a pair. Parking is easy, but I recommend getting there a little earlier since it's located near Trader Joe's and other businesses, so the area can get a bit busy. The staff were all very kind and welcoming, and the studio itself was super clean and well maintained. What I really enjoyed about this class is that while you definitely feel the burn and get sore (in the best way!), the instructor made sure we stretched multiple times throughout -- at least three different stretch moments during class. That balance of strengthening and stretching made such a difference. I'll definitely be coming back!
