I was trying to get back in shape and her classes and personal training helped give me that little extra extra I needed to get myself to the next level.

The moment I found it, I was hooked -- and immediately knew I had found my home studio. The instructors are phenomenal, especially Bailey, Kelsey, and Meghan. They bring so much passion, energy, and expertise to every class, while also making a genuine effort to connect with each individual client. I especially appreciate how supportive they are with offering modifications and helping everyone feel successful, regardless of fitness level or injuries. The studio itself feels elevated, high-end, warm, inviting, and friendly all at the same time -- such a rare combination. Every class feels challenging, positive, and motivating, and the overall energy of the studio is just incredible. Highly, highly recommend Be Kind Pilates!

I have been work with Linda for a year.

What a mess! I'd like to take care of myself as long a possible. The machines are doctor designed. I move the weights slowly with Linda keeping an eye on my form so I don't hurt myself. By the way, my shoulder and knee were Injured working out at a regular gym. I have more than doubled the amount of weight for each machine. My balance is better. I feel much stronger, happier and easily take care of me. Because the weights moved are heavy, I only need to workout once a week. Great use of my time. I am one healthy 69 year old.

Malibu's best-kept secret for keeping toned and fit!…read more At first, I was skeptical about trying a workout that claims you only have to do it once a week. After all, I was used to doing pilates, yoga, and going on walks several times a week, and I knew how much work it took to get results. However, I've had back problems and injuries for years, so I'm always open to trying new workouts to see if they can improve how I feel. My trainer, Kathryn, is one of the sweetest people you will ever meet. She is funny and conversational, and just a total sweetheart. She explains that it is the quality, not quantity of a workout that is the most important; the weight-training exercises, done correctly, will bring you to "failure" very quickly, and then you work in that tough spot, until you can no longer do it. That is why Slow Form works, and why you don't do it very often. I'm the most fit looking, and the strongest, I've ever been. I love knowing that my workouts are efficient, and how my trainer tracks my progress to make sure I am improving from week to week. My back never hurts from these workouts. Seeing Kathryn every week is so great, and the ocean view doesn't hurt either.

Guy, in my opinion, did not professionally or responsibly run the breathwork session I experienced with him. Now that I know much more, I get compelled to add these thoughts because I take the modality of breathwork quite seriously as a way of processing ones emotional and physical struggles and traumas. Leading even one person should through a breathwork session brings with it great responsibility. I worry for some who go to Guy and are in need of a safer, more professionally trained individual. There are many other sound baths and breathwork practitioners in Los Angeles. Do a little more research before believing those trying to simply make money on it.

Training with Dan has become an essential part of my daily life, and has forever changed my fitness…read morejourney and my outlook on movement, fitness, and health for the better. I started training with Dan in August of 2022, and in our first two months, I did not pick up a single weight. We focused entirely on re-learning basic functional movement patterns and establishing a strong mind and muscle connection using only body weight. I was shocked at how grueling the workouts were given that we did not utilize any added weight or resistance. I was looking for a personal trainer with fitness goals primarily oriented around aesthetics and seeing more plates get added onto to my barbell. In the past, while chasing these goals on my own, I constantly ran into programming fatigue, and the only thing consistent about my fitness journey was how often I would plateau. Any time I would try and push past these plateaus, I would be knocked off my journey all together by injury. With Dan as my trainer, my goals for and outlook on my fitness journey have dramatically changed. Dan has inspired and educated me to prioritize and to value moving well and having a strong connection to all the muscles involved in moving well. Functional movement and biomechanics drive my fitness goals and journey, while aesthetics and max weight have become secondary - but funny enough, now I'm seeing my aesthetic goals and max weights improve more than they ever did than when they were my primary goals. Needless to say, with a strong foundation built with Dan's guidance and expertise coupled with Dan doing all the work programming my workouts and holding me accountable, I have been able to find new driving principles and passions in fitness, and I have been able to watch my goals consistently compound. Fitness and movement aside, Dan has a strong awareness and grasp of a person's overall health and how to effectively use his training method to support their personal journey. This speaks to how personalized each client's programming is under Dan's guidance. I started a new position at work in January of 2023, and the stress caused me to lose a lot of weight and have trouble sleeping. When made aware of this significant lifestyle change, Dan immediately adjusted our program, incorporated breathing exercises and scaled back the intensity of weights and duration of cardio in a calculated way to provide much needed support to my nervous system. This taught me that fitness is not a linear progression, but it is an awareness of and an adaptation to the stressors that occur in all of our lives. Dan runs an incredible fitness operation, and I hope my personal experience highlights the value of his service and of the community he's created. Train with Dan - it's what you've been looking for, trust me.

With Courtney's help and knowledge, I am more connected to my body and stronger than ever, and it has been life-changing. After my pregnancy, I had many issues with tight hips and a weak pelvic floor. I would have to run to the bathroom in the middle of my work out because I could not jump rope without peeing on myself. I thought this is just going to be life after pregnancy. I now have no issues with my pelvic floor, and she brought a new awareness to my life and has taught me so much more about it. Courtney has worked with me in so many exercises that I had never learned before her that have improved my posture and realignment. I am now stronger, and I feel so much more confident! Courtney is extremely knowledgeable and aware of the human body and getting it to it's best. She has taught me so much about health and fitness, and it has helped me reconnect to my own body with a better understanding of what I need to be my best. Best of all, she has fantastic energy. I look forward to her positive personality and always have the best time with her. I highly recommend working with Courtney for your fitness program to get you to your best. Conveniently she now has an online program so you can connect with her from anywhere.
