When I started, I felt weak and dealt with a lot of small aches and pains throughout my body. Now I feel so much more stable, balanced, stronger, and pain-free. The combination of Bikram and Pilates classes is excellent, and the two complement each other really well. Not to mention the added bonus of the heat - the sauna-like environment brings its own longevity and recovery benefits on top of everything else. The instructors are inspiring and the community is great -- honestly, a big part of why I keep coming back. I can't recommend this place enough! As one of the other reviewers said, a true Pacifica gem.

The studio recently closed for about 10 days to replace the floor mats. While they were closed, I went to another studio in a nearby city to do Inferno Hot Pilates. It had a much larger space. I thought it was kind of neat, but I noticed that almost everyone did not speak to the person near them. During the class no one made any noises. There was no "hooting and hollering." Even when the instructor asked how everyone was doing, no one said anything. The classes were ok at first, but by the 3rd class it became boring. There are a lot of regular yogis at Sangha. We are friendly and we talk to each other and to the new people if they want to talk. If you're new, you're encouraged to go at your own pace. You rest when you need to rest. We also "hoot & holler." There's a lot of energy in the class that makes it fun. We get energy from each other & the good music. The more yogis there are the more fun it becomes. It doesn't matter if you're what type of body shape you have. No one cares. The regular yogis also come in all shapes & sizes. We're all just trying to be healthy & have fun. The studio is clean. The instructors are always cleaning the floor mats & mirrors. There's no weird odors. You will not be lying in someone else's puddle of sweat. The owners/instructors are super friendly. This studio is very welcoming.

I started coming here about 2 months ago, and have really enjoyed it. I have been a runner for the…read morepast few years for my primary exercise, but wanted to do more. I tried out the Newbie unlimited pass, and was going about 3-4 times a week. What I love about this studio is that they seem to have instructors that are more invested with each of its clients. For instance, the instructors call out participants by name saying how great they are doing in a move. I also like how some instructors incorporate arm weights into the class, which look tiny, but are quite strenuous. My favorite instructors are Corri, Ina, Ariel, and Mara. After being here for a few months, I'd say 90% of the instructors are good, and you will get a good workout in. Some things I don't like about the studio are the booking options for the classes. By first glance, it looks impossible to book a class, as the options are almost always "waitlist only." I am pulled off the waitlist about 80% of the time, but not always. I always feel like in general, it's annoying to be put on a waitlist, instead of being confirmed right away. In addition, if I could change the membership options, what I would change is the options for classes per month. It skips from 8 classes/month to 12 classes/month, which is a big jump. Wish there was an option in between to choose from. Another bummer is the mirrors in the class. 80% of the reformer machines have mirrors on all sides, but there are a few spots that don't have many options, so it's hard to see yourself in the mirror to correct yourself. The parking is really easy in this area, which is amazing. Even in broad daylight, the residential parking a block down and over are free for 2-4 hours! Love that! In general, I really love this studio and would recommend if you want to try Reformer pilates.

I did 2 morning classes which worked out perfectly for my schedule and the parking outside (street cleaning so be aware of the days, also no meter paying until 9AM). The studio is very well setup, spacious and clean with good ventilation/ac. Reformers are staggered with lots of mirror around and motivational words up top (love that!). I appreciate the little baskets each reformer has for our personal items, such as smart way to keep out things in one place, next to us! Very high 4 stars rating, only things that brings it down is its soo pricey for a membership or per session... but that's a Pilates reformer class anywhere you go. Nevertheless, definitely worth the try and I just may be back every once in a while!

I'm disappointed to be leaving this review because the instructors are good and the studio itself…read moreis clean and nice, but I'm very frustrated with how my membership was communicated and handled. In June, the studio reached out to me about their semi-annual membership. I explained that I travel frequently and was interested in the 48 credit option because I wanted the flexibility to use the credits around my schedule. I was told that this option would work well for me, including that the credits would roll over from month to month. Based on that conversation, I decided to pay $1,237 upfront, which is a significant amount of money for me. What was not clearly communicated to me was that all 48 credits had to be used within the six month term or they would expire. If I had understood that I would essentially need to take 8 classes a month to use everything within the term, I would not have purchased this membership given my schedule and how often I'm out of town. When I realized the issue and went to the front desk, I was essentially told that my only option was to book as many classes as possible over the next few months or lose the remaining credits. I understand that the terms of a contract matter, and I can see the expiration language in the contract now. However, I think there is a significant difference between having something buried in the contract and clearly communicating an important limitation when selling a $1,237 membership, particularly when the customer has specifically discussed their scheduling needs with the studio. I would have appreciated some effort to make this right, a partial refund, a short extension of the membership, or even another reasonable solution. Instead, the response was essentially, "sorry that wasn't relayed to you." That was extremely disappointing. I also came across other reviews mentioning billing issues, which makes me wish I had paid more attention before signing up. I took a chance on this studio because I liked the classes and the convenience, but this experience has definitely changed my impression. The instructors themselves have been great, and the facilities are clean, which I appreciate. I'll continue coming in over the next couple of months because I need to use the credits I already paid for, but I'm very unhappy with how this situation was handled and would encourage anyone considering a prepaid membership to ask very specific questions about expiration, rollover, and exactly how many classes they realistically need to take each month before paying upfront. The issue for me isn't that the membership has terms. I understand that. It's that a major limitation wasn't clearly communicated to me before I committed $1,237, despite specifically discussing my schedule with the studio.

For me I find using the various Pilates equipment, in a small group setting, to be the most efficient and enjoyable workout. For years I would travel to SF to go to a studio I loved! Once I had my daughter I stopped the regular workouts and it became very difficult to get to my old studio. I really wanted to get back to weekly sessions so I started the search! I looked all over the coast, and even the Peninsula, for an exceptional pilates studio. I finally discovered Lele at Half Moon Bay Pilates. I absolutely LOVE my sessions with her. I participate in weekly, small group private workouts (usually 4-6 people). It is the value of a lifetime... having her expertise guiding your every move. She focuses on each persons strengths and limitations which is invaluable. The studio has exceptional quality equipment as well as a variety of other props that are used. The space very clean and setup for a nice, relaxed feel. We are always switching up the workouts and trying new things. Lele keeps it fun, information and enjoyable.

But unfortunately, the experience with their policy and customer support has been frustrating enough that I'm seriously reconsidering coming back. I've been dealing with a prolonged illness, and per their own policy, clients with symptoms are not allowed to attend class (which I fully respect). But when I reached out to explain my situation, I was only given a two-week extension -- no flexibility, no empathy, just a firm deadline. When I tried to use the remaining classes before expiration, I did not show up due to a worsening cough at the day of class-- again, trying to be responsible and follow their rules. I then received a late cancel/no show warning email, which said I'd normally be charged an extra $15 fee on top of the class I already paid for, just for being too sick to attend. Although the fee was waived this time, the tone of the message and the overall approach felt more like a punishment system than a client-centered one. The policy is confusing, rigid, and completely lacking in support for people dealing with health issues. It left me feeling discouraged and unwelcome -- not something I expect from a wellness studio.

They don't have a reception area so I was a little lost walking in but I just followed what everyone else was doing. The workout itself was fine. Compared to the classes I took in the past I didn't find the instructor to be helpful. When I got home I got an email about my bill from Pilates V which was a charge for grip socks which I did not purchase. I ended up reaching out to management for a refund. There was a couple back and forth with the emails where I had to reach out for updates. It did become a bit frustrating because I didn't talk to the instructor at all but was told that the instructor said it was me that purchased. In the end I received my refund which I was thankful for however I feel like this could have been solved in a more efficient way. I ended up not using the rest of the Groupon classes but it's a loss I would rather take than take more classes.
