I absolutely love this place. I'm updating my review from 2019 because after all these years I have…read morelearned so much and am stronger than ever! Thank you so much Kathleen Henry and Samantha. Prior to working out at Bulates, I did privates with an instructor who had a reformer at her house. I went religiously three times a week for years, never realizing that my positions were wrong, never really properly stretching and there wasn't the same attention to form. I still loved it and got a lot of benefit, but not like now. Not only are the instructors here extremely well trained, but they keep things interesting and new by changing it up constantly. This also encourages your body to use muscles you didn't even realize you had! There's more emphasis on your core, every single muscle group, flexibility and balance. It sounds corny, but I feel like I've really gotten to know and strengthen my body. And I used to do MMA and taekwondo, and still didn't achieve the overall strength that I have now. Finally, because I have gotten so much benefit, I got my 78 year old Dad into it. After one class he absolutely fell in love with Pilates. If you've got an old injury that you're trying to heal from, if you're currently going to physical therapy, talk to your doctor and consider adding Pilates. The instructors here will take excellent care of you and build you back up carefully and skillfully.

I never received a phone call or email from you to clarify this matter, so please don't make up lies to make this story look good! About six months ago, my friend came to visit and wanted a joint lesson, so we signed up together, and this time after you asked me to leave because I made a mistake at the time of the lesson I chose, I asked for my money back. I didn't even know that you would act in such a vindictive manner towards your past customers, so I signed up yesterday as well and to my surprise and disappointment was the disrespectful treatment I received from you. In my opinion, you are behaving in the most disrespectful way! You notified me while I was looking for parking before entering the class! And you charged me another $30 for a late fee!!!! The height of insolence! I'm still waiting for my money back! Regarding your scheduling and registration, it didn't work for me personally as a mother of 3, so I felt that the money I was paying wasn't worth it to me if I couldn't schedule classes! I tried both morning and evening, the availability was very low! It didn't work for me in any way, so it makes sense for me to stop subscribing to you. And yes, you will also regret that you are not doing your job properly, neither with fairness nor with respect!

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.

To say I am in love with Pilates and the studio is an understatement. This is the most welcoming place I've been to. From the minute you walk in the door you are welcomed with a friendly smile, then you meet your instructor who again welcomes you and helps you through the class. The place is clean, accessible and all around great. I highly recommend for anyone who is new to Pilates and anyone who has been doing it for a while.

I worked as a personal trainer at the LA Fitness Agoura Hills location for approximately three…read moremonths. Before immigrating to the United States in 2001, I worked as a Group Fitness Instructor in my home country. After moving to the United States, I devoted many years to raising my twin children. Although I remained passionate about fitness throughout those years. After learning that the Agoura Hills location was hiring, I interviewed with Danny, the head trainer, and was hired. From my first day, I worked diligently, welcomed feedback, and continually tried to improve my skills. I genuinely enjoyed working with clients and believed I was making meaningful progress. During my employment, I was assigned multiple clients. However, I was never informed whether these clients were new clients assigned to me permanently or temporary substitutions for other trainers. As a result, several clients trained with me only once before returning to their original trainers. Later, I learned that these one-time sessions negatively affected my "return client percentage," even though those clients may never have intended to continue training with me. At the same time, several clients chose to continue training with me and expressed great satisfaction with my services. Approximately one month after I started working, I noticed a significant change in my boss, the head trainer, Danny's behavior toward me. He became increasingly distant, stopped acknowledging me, avoided eye contact, ignored me at work, and failed to respond to the few work-related text messages I sent him. I discussed this situation with my husband, who encouraged me to remain professional, continue performing my job to the best of my ability, and not allow this behavior to affect my work. On my final Friday at work, Danny asked whether I knew my return client percentage. I told him I understood that it was low. He then informed me that because my return percentage was below 60%, I can not work there any longer. This was the first time I had been informed that my employment was in jeopardy. I had never received any warning, coaching, performance improvement plan, or opportunity to address the issue. I was shocked and deeply saddened by this sudden termination. The following Monday, I visited the gym with my husband to work out as a member. At the front desk, I was informed that I was not permitted to enter because former trainers are subject to a three-month "cooling-off" period after their employment ends. This was another policy that had never been explained to me previously. Shayan later confirmed that this was company policy. I talked to Shayan, the District manager, regarding my unfair termination. He asked me to talk to HR if I feel being treated unfair, and I did. I emailed Kelcie at HR a letter with all details! Several days after submitting my complaint, I received a phone call from Kelcie in Human Resources. Kelcie stated that Danny had reported that I had told him I did not want to work at LA Fitness anymore and that management considered this to be my resignation. I told her that I never resigned, never indicated that I wished to resign, and was happy working there. I also explained that if I had intended to resign, I would have submitted a written resignation. Despite my repeated denials, Kelcie stated that management had informed Human Resources that I resigned and that my resignation had been accepted! Kelcie then stated that if I wanted to work for LA Fitness again, I would have to submit a new application. She further informed me that I would not be permitted to apply to the Agoura Hills location where I had previously worked. I found this response extremely troubling because it appeared that my employment status had been changed from a termination to a resignation without my knowledge or consent. I will take my complaint about my unfair treatment to government agencies so in the future nobody will be treated and fired unfairly! One more thing I need to add is that on Thursday, the day before Danny informed me that he no longer wanted me there, I went to Maria and asked whether I could add work time if my client did not show up for training. Without making any eye contact and in a very aggressive manner, she replied, "Go clean the bathrooms, or clean the windows if you want work time." Looking back, I believe Maria was already aware that Danny intended to fire me. Her rude and aggressive response, along with directing me to clean the bathrooms, makes me believe she knew I I would soon be dismissed.

He greeted and small talk people he seemed to know but not much talk about the form for the class - not just me - the instruction "just watch the person before you" is NOT a professional fitness instructor .. the class was ok.. no stretching at the end, (!!!) just lie down on the floor and "relax" for 5 min. (Muscle spams and cramps await). The class is 45 min btw (somehow I thought it would be 60 min .) I have been in average gyms, upscale gyms but this was below average. The gym doesn't have lockers, only two showers/restrooms - not sure how this works when more people want to change in busy hours ... the rest of the gym is fine - outside and inside equipment ...
