I'm a biker and I wanted a faster bike, which means bigger engine and heavier weight. I've been eyeing this bike for a year, I would go look at it at the dealership every couple of months, bike was too heavy, couldn't pick it up off the stand. Then I'd go home and dream about it. Then went again to admire it, on and on. So I decided to do something about it. I signed up for a free introductory class and Jacquie was my instructor. She was great and I was hooked. I signed up and I've been going 3 to 4 times a week. I love all my instructors! Miss Mary, Lisa, Bailee, Liz, Alicia, everyone is great! Very kind and inclusive. But the best part is, 2 weeks after I started, I went to look at my dream bike again. Not expecting anything, I hop on and I was able to pick it up!! I bought it that day and I've been enjoying it! I feel like everything is possible now. Maybe someday I'll get a litter bike haha. I'm still going as often as I can and I love every class. Thank you for all your help and expertise!!

Run, don't walk here. This boutique studio is one of a kind. My group classes have no more than…read morefour students at a time. Pilates was really meant to be a one-on-one type practice and while I know private lessons are not realistic for alot of people, the next best thing is finding a smaller studio that can offer a more personalized service which I think is necessary for an authentic experience. As an intermediate-advanced student I have taken a deep dive into the practice and I know which studio is truly qualified. My first experience with Pilates was at a BASI certified studio (contemporary pilates). When I moved I was looking for something comparable and began taking lessons with Kristen who is Power Pilates certified (classical pilates) which is highly respected in the East coast/NYC scene. Anyways, it's been a year since I've done one private and one group class per week and my body has completely transformed (alongside walking/cardio 5 days a week). This studio was actually an upgrade from the previous studio which I originally thought was the best. Kristen is so meticulous and particular about form that I'm never hurting in the wrong place (lower back, which is easy to strain with improper form) and she has such an eye for detail which has given me more understanding of my own body and deficiencies to look out for. Rarely do I feel passionate about such an establishment but health is wealth!!!

Charone and Kristen tailor ever private session to my alignment and what my body needs the most. I no longer need physical therapy and my body looks 100% stronger.

My mind/body has been so balanced since starting there 6 months ago.

I must say that i sincerely, truly did not expect to feel anything after my first training sesson. And boy was i incorrect in my assesment of signing up for a training class with this woman or as i'd like to call her: "the pilates beast!" The amount of body control she has is unreal. I'm completely hooked, line and sinker with pilates now. And i stopped taking the pain medication since. Thank you kindly again Cynthia. Your nutritional advice and your Dana Point pilates 600 different exercises to kick anyone's butt away from the pain medications and into body shape to be proud of again, has proven a godsend in my life. See you again on Thursday. :-) most sincerely, Vladimir B.

The Dana Point location is absolutely beautiful and, for me, so much more convenient. The space feels fresh, welcoming, and has such a great energy. Owners Ashlyn and Sarah are wonderful! The instructors are incredible--their motivation truly makes a difference and pushes you in the best way. The group sessions have been amazing, and it reminded me why I loved Sweathouse in the first place. If you have been thinking about trying it or getting back into it, do it.
