I am prefacing this by saying that I have being going to Club Pilates just shy of a year and have…read morefound my groove and love it. But I want to give a fair review for all others that might be curious. Before I came to club pilates, I had a few years of foundational pilates from smaller reformer studios as well as private instruction. I did the 30 minute Intro class to get a feel for the studio and decide if I would like it or not. From there, I signed up for an unlimited membership and it has been worth it for me. I have an extremely flexible schedule with a lot of availability, therefore it makes it very easy for me to get signed up for the classes that I want. I can't speak on anyone else's experience getting into classes since it has been easy for me. I have taken classes from every instructor and have my preferences for sure, however I think if I was BRAND NEW to pilates, this would not be the place for me at all. I find success here because I can follow verbal cues easily since I have that foundation. I have my preferences of instructors because I have taken classes with them and I know what I am getting into. Suzanne- CLASSICAL. No music, lights on. Can come across as "strict" or intimidating to some but I would describe her as passionate and strict because she needs to be. She does not want anyone getting hurt and therefore she takes doing movements CORRECTLY, very seriously. She often isn't the best at time management because she is trying to ensure that everyone is class is doing things correctly. Angela- Awesome energy. During the school year she doesn't teach as much but she is extremely helpful. I really think that her levels of class are appropriate. She ensures that anyone who might be new gets more of her focus and she often tries to do the movements along with everyone to know the timing and that she isn't killing anyone. Chanel- Lots of energy. Music is great (loud). No lights. She is FAST PACED; no real breaks in between. She will change springs for everyone and get extra equipment as needed so that there isn't time wasted doing that. However, sometimes that's when I need a rest. I get a GREAT, hard workout in with her but I struggle in her level 1 flow classes. Sometimes I find that she won't give a full cue IMO? Like she will explain a movement but miss certain details and then offer corrections, whereas maybe if we were told X,Y,Z from the start, corrections might not be needed. If I were trying to dip my toe into the world of pilates, she might scare me off a bit. Her center and balance classes are lovely. Vanita- Tough but great. I can't speak to a lot of experience with her because I am not an early morning girl and that is mainly when she teaches. I have taken about 3 classes with her and again, level 1 flow- a little more tough if I was inexperienced/out of shape. Vanessa- I don't want to play favorites but we just vibe. She taught my intro class and I wasn't sure I liked her energy but the more classes I have taken with her, the more she is my pick to go back to each week. I think her biological knowledge gives her such a leg up. The way she explains movements or answers questions is incredibly helpful. Telling you exactly where you should feel it and how. She isn't afraid to correct you no matter how long you have been in classes. I think sometimes instructors feel so friendly with people that they feel awkward giving corrections and Vanessa won't do that. I think another thing I really think elevates her is that she gives adaptions for everyone. If you're more advanced she will give ways to level up but always encourages you to meet yourself where you are. Starts at the base and then gives add on options. Her center and balance classes are wonderful. Basically a full 50 minute stretch class where she asks what needs to be targeted and helps everyone with what they request along with a little yoga type meditation. Bethany- Limited to Wednesday instruction but very smart and good at her job. She knows her regular people well and knows how to push a little further or pull back a bit. Quiet spoken so music is usually a bit quieter so that she doesn't have to scream. Flow classes can be tough, but I would say usually appropriately done. Maddie- Such a sweetheart, great energy. Music is always upbeat and she really wants to work people out. Sometimes her level 1 flow can be tough, similar to other instructors where if it was my first time or I was new, I would definitely struggle. Abbey- We just do not click. This is my personal opinion on her classes but she is not for me. I think she struggles with understanding the different levels of classes and it makes me feel unsafe. If I was brand new to pilates I would most definitely not take classes with her. Again, that's just my opinion. It hasn't stopped me from going here. At this point there are a few new instructors, Erin, Mary, Katie that I don't feel I can give total feedback on because I don't have enough experience with.

It's been five months since I started barre, and it's definitely not for the faint of heart. (You…read moreshould still try it, though.) Barre is like a mix of pilates, some "ballerina" moves, and a whole lot of sweating. It's ab intense, will make your bun twitch, and muscles shake -- which means things are working. The routines change up, so I'm constantly finding myself grunting during seat work or through "tucks." As intimidating as barre might sound, it's a pretty amazing workout with people from all different fitness backgrounds coming together to burn their abs and legs off (lol). All jokes aside, I consider myself fit-ish, and barre is the only workout that's help dissolve my mom pouch and tone me up. I enjoy the classes, the instructors, and the struggle to push myself and challenge anyone else to give it a try. You'll be sore, but not disappointed!

I'm not always in town - in fact, I'm rarely in town, except summers and crazy stints when I get a wild hair and decide to call the area home for several months - that means finding a workout place can be difficult, especially if you're looking for a place where you feel comfortable but want the accountability factor that group exercise provides. Enter Pure Buffalo - these ladies told me that everyone is family, and I believe them! They greet you by name every class, spend ample time introducing new moves and making sure newbies learn the lingo and form, and are always encouraging, enthusiastic, and extremely professional. I love difficult workouts and was initially skeptical about the difficulty level of barre. I was quickly humbled - the small, precise movements quickly put me in my place - I was a puddle of sweat by the end of the class. The instructors are friendly, knowledgable, and offer modifications to both simplify or challenge, making it a great workout for any fitness level. After blowing through my Groupon 20 pack, I bought another 10 pack, just so I can keep attending classes until I leave. Overall, I feel stronger, more toned, and not as guilty for all the ice cream cones I ate while I was home. :) I will not hesitate to come back and exercise with all the wonderful people at PB next time I'm home.

Victor's skillset is very rare to happen across. He has a Masters in Exercise and Nutrition Sciences from UB's School of Public Health and Health Professions (where I happen to work in another dept - and I understand that the ENS program is an excellent one). Victor also has an accomplished background in body building (note: the gym is not a body building gym, rather it is family friendly and very welcoming for clients with health challenges). I've had some very challenging exercise related restrictions to work around, and I never expected the results that we have achieved to date. I doubted that I would ever be able to work out in a meaningful way again but Victor worked with me to find a path towards a sustainable fitness plan. Additionally, my two sons work out with Victor. To them, exercise is not a boring chore, rather they view it as a challenge that can be enjoyable and not lacking in creativity. I noticed the other two complaints posted as Yelp reviews. For my part, Victor has always responded to my inquiries in a timely fashion. He's been every bit a conscientious business owner. It is a shame that those reviews may prevent others from discovering this wonderful gym.
