I have really enjoyed my time at Club Pilates. I love the atmosphere and the instructors, especially Shayna. She always has a bopping playlist and great energy! read more

This review is ONLY becuas of a terrible experience today with a teacher named Helen. I love this studio, but have avoided her classes becasue I prefer all the other teachers. But nearing the end of my month when classes expire. i signed up for her class. The only reson I am posting here is to get Club Pilates' attemtion, as they do not have (or I could not find) a place on their website to leave feedback. No more details for now, as I intend to talk to the manager Eric next time I see him at the studio. read more

I've been a member for almost 2 years and it's such an addictive healthy habit to pick up. My fav instructors are Shayna (great music selection), Gwendolyn (love her energy), and Damon (kicks your @ss in a good way). Low key, this requires time, energy and a healthy cash flow but it's totally worth the price, the time it takes to find parking (hello, Whole Foods for $free.99). The consistent practice of showing up matters... and it'll show in no time! read more

I've been a member since early 2020, just before Covid hit. I love this studio and take between 5-7 classes a week! They have an educator discount, which is amazing. While it isn't cheap, it has absolutely become a priority to fit in the budget. As the clientele numbers have grown, so have the class offerings and times. I'm a Reformer Flow kinda gal and the scheduled class times work well. The instructors are fantastic - they are friendly, knowledgeable, and always come up with workouts that mix creative elements with the more traditional/classical Pilates moves. I can't recommend this location highly enough! read more

I joined in early 2020 not long after the studio opened, and Club Pilates has become a part of my regular weekly routine. I absolutely love everything about Club Pilates. The studio is always very clean, management and instructors are very friendly and attentive to people w injuries. The workouts continue to be perfect for me, and I look forward to going as many days a week as I can. I recently canceled scheduled back surgery and I attribute the improvement in my back pain to frequent Club Pilates classes. I highly recommend. read more

Shayna is an awesome pilates instructor. I can always count on not only getting a good workout but also being challenged to improve and do bette. She is down to earth and prompts positivity throughout her classes. read more

My main teachers have been Shayna and Claudia O. Both were terrific . Shayna was always cheerful and encouraging , so that you tried your best. Claudia was remarkable in her conscientious effort to design a program that was hard but not impossible. Both learned the names of the regular students and corrected us when we made mistakes. They set an example of what a good teacher can be. Karla read more

I've been a Club Pilates member since March 2023. Although I only go once a week, I've found the teachers excellent and the help it's given me for overall tone and posture and core strengthening is wonderful. Also, if you have Medicare Part B it may let you go here 4x/month for free! (Mine did). The only caution is that sometimes there aren't enough classes in my level, if I don't sign up right on the first of the month at midnight! read more

I love Club Pilates Tenleytown! I've been attending for over a year now, and I am consistently impressed with the teachers, the sense of community, and the warmth of the front office staff. Shayna and Claudia are both standout teachers--they bring expertise as well as a great sense of humor that keeps us entertained while we're doing the hardest moves. Eric, the studio manager, has always been prompt and helpful when I've had questions about billing, etc. As someone who has struggled to feel comfortable in workout spaces, I am so pleased to have found a home here. read more

I have been at this studio since it opened. I like the variety of equipment they make use of. All of the teachers have been knowledgable, proactive and caring. I deal with a variety of physical issues and have progressed and gotten stronger from letting the teachers know what I'm dealing with that day and they have taught me the adaptations to progress! Due to a serious car accident I needed to pause my classes. The manager was very understanding and super helpful!!! I am really glad I joined CP!! read more

I recently started working out here and am thoroughly in love! The staff and establishment are amazing. The classes are very versatile and the teachers are very patient working with you at your level. It's clean and follows impeccable Cleaning Standards plus follow social distancing with the reformers so you're never close to anyone. I'll check back in and let you know how it goes but right now the studio has brought so much joy to me in such a short amount of time read more

Wonderful, very clean studio with lovely and caring instructors. As a newcomer to reformer pilates, (much) OLDER and incredibly out of shape with some physical limitations, I was worried I would be out of my league. And, even though I can't keep up with everything, the two instructors I've had have accommodated and really worked with me. I am confident I will catch up sooner than later. read more

I've been going here since last April, and I love it! There are a lot of classes at different times during the week. I appreciate how the classes are leveled, so I can choose how hard I want to workout. They have also been very flexible with switching out classes, and they extended some credits out an additional month due to covid. It also seems safer than most indoor gyms because the reformer machines naturally space everyone quite far. I'm a fan! read more

I suffer with extreme asthma, lower back issues among a few added special features! After super bored with walking and treadmill exercise my husband and I wanted to find a healthy activity we could both enjoy and benefit from together . PERFECT find was: Club Pilates . The studio is extremely clean and all equipment beautifully maintenance at all times. The instructors are amazing. I have enjoyed all the classes we have taken however, each instructor has left their own impressionable mark all unique with each class. Super knowledgeable very helpful and issuing positive reinforcements when needed . Keeping even the novice ( such as myself) I am not very coordinated or athletic and always have felt motivated and encouraged. The office front desk representative brilliant smile and very informative with great communication! Thank you K for always greeting us with a smile. read more

Classes and teachers are great but there is not a lot of classes offered at that studio. They are very inflexible with transferring unused paid classes to the next month when you can't use them because the classes at a convenient time (morning on weekends for example) are all booked very quickly. If you are a busy working mom, I strongly don't recommend this studio. In addition, they added an end date to my freeze membership. When they reopened, they charged me for classes I won't be able to take since we moved and I thought my membership was frozen indefinitely. If you try to talk to them, they are very indifferent, very inflexible and basically told me that they are running a business. Good luck with your business if you show a lack of flexibility and understanding to your customers! read more

I was going consistently and it was okay - not enough classes, scheduled times didnt line up with my 8-6 work schedule. And then I put my account on hold and the folks I talked to about it were really understanding about covid. However, yesterday I was charged over $200 without warning and when I called the store to ask about it and the person on the phone was the opposite of understanding. I have someone in my household who is high risk and not yet vaccinated and he asked me several times when that person would be vaccinated - which we all know none of us have control over. My experience with Club Pilates has been mediocre to bad and this made me quit -- but only after he got his $200. read more

there is NO accommodation or flexibility if you are unable to use your credits in the month paid for. due to an injury was unable to use and they refused to let credits carry over, charged for an additional month as scheduled (I hadn't filled in form and paid the $15 admin fee to hold 30 days in advance). That alone is the reason I will never give them another penny instructors are decent but boy are they self important... couldn't take a level 2 class until being "reviewed" multiple times in level 1.5 despite years of experience. then the level 2 class was hardly any more rigorous. ridiculous read more

If they had zero, I would rate it that. I purchased a pass through ClassPass and when I got there they said I had to purchase socks or I couldn't take the class. When I explained I had come from a run, and I didn't bring a card with me, they said I could rebook and come back when I have a card to pay for socks. When I explained I still would be charged on ClassPass the receptionist just shrugged it off. It would have been nice for them to include this information on their ClassPass page. I rather book at solidcore. They are more expensive but at least they give you complimentary socks the first time you attend and have better staff. read more

Nice facility, equipment and classes. But they've lost my business over membership plans and administration. You can only sign up for 30 days in advance, but 30 day advance notice is required cancel auto-renew. They were inflexible and unpleasant. The result is I was charged last month without permission. I'm now contesting charges with my credit card company. Buyer beware! read more

When it first opened this location tried hard to build a clientele. Not so much anymore. Before they shut down I was told my last three classes outstanding before my membership ended would be available when the studio opened again. Now they are offering online classes but they won't reinstate my three classes unless I pay for another month. This is not what I was promised and they are indifferent. It is all the more ridiculous because online classes are not taking a reformer away from another paying customer. read more

Bethesda and Tenleytown are under the same management so I am posting my experience under both locations. My experience was that they were very responsive when you want to join and not responsive when you want to cancel. I had enjoyed multiple Club Pilates facilities in the Dallas, TX area and those locations had multiple 5:30a class offerings per week but transferring to the Maryland area, there are extremely limited early morning offerings - only two 7am classes a week, in different locations. When I expressed my frustration and explained that the class schedule did not meet my needs, they still trapped me in 37 more days of membership "due to the timing of my billing cycle and because rules are rules" when I truly do not want a single additional day of membership. Now I have to go to classes for an additional 37 days when I absolutely do not want to, because I have to get value out of a paid membership I am effectively trapped in and cannot get out of fast enough. They are friendly when you join and then in my experience, they didn't respond to emails or calls for days when I wanted to cancel. Also if you're attending 7am classes, be prepared to wait outside in the cold until exactly 7am, and be prepared to be admonished or not allowed in if you're more than 5min late to class. For me, this experience gave me more headaches than health. I am really disappointed and frustrated by my experience. read more

I'm excited to have Club Pilates here in Tenleytown. It's been open only a few days, and I have attended 3 classes at the point in which I'm writing the review. I was a little disappointed that the free intro session was just 30 minutes... The intro session is (like its name) geared to those who were quite new to pilates, so if they keep doing the free intro, perhaps those already familiar with Pilates equipment might not want to bother with the 30 minute session. The equipment is lovely there and speaks of a long term commitment to the area. Bonus points here for the wunda chairs and promises that classes will use the jump boards. I liked the teacher for the two additional sessions I attended-- she teaches at the Club Pilates in Bethesda as well. The cost is a bit high and I was disappointed that (at the time of this review) there is no Federal worker discount-- but one at 10% for teachers, police, and... (I forget). There's no shower. But, overall, it's a nice place and I am, at the very least, headed there for the three month commitment of a 4 pack for the next three months... I do love pilates. So, I'm all for this place working out. (And if you were worried about it, the place has been sufficiently redone that it does not smell like a Jimmy John's! Thank goodness.) Hooray! read more

What a year it has been. But despite the chaos this Club Pilates did not disappoint. I'll start by saying I am not a gym guy. I run to catch a bus or jump to get a spot at the bar. But at 50 gravity is starting to catch up. The idea of a gym membership with its negative connotations around body image and membership contracts turns me off. Pilates is different because at any age or physique it targets a full range of muscles which support balance and overall core strength. Pilates is about building control and coordination. I have been so intrigued by the reported benefits of Pilates I held my nose and signed up. I joined shortly after its opening and in just a few weeks I realized the truth to the claims. I started with a couple of classes a week but with the unlimited package I was doing three classes a week and moving into the 1.5 level. I never had an issue getting into a class despite the not so great software interface. Pro tip, you can text or call the club and they can sign you up to classes easy. The digital platform is what cost the rating a star (possibly two if it wasn't for the staff's awesome customer service making up for its shortcomings - it's really cringy). What was even more awesome is that despite the mess COVID caused with memberships and ahem, my knee jerk reaction contesting a credit card charge :-( The team, especially the GM, was super responsive and totally erased my negative perceptions about how fitness classes are all about getting members on the hook. They have responded to COVID concerns phenomenally. I have no reservations about taking classes there. All the instructors are terrific. They do represent a range of styles so for some you may what to try-out different classes. Here's to Contrology. read more
