If you are thinking about trying a new pilates studio or just starting this is the place!!! I've been going to this studio for about 5 months now. I was walking by one evening and the name caught my attention I went home and purchased a class (you get half off you are a first time student at this studio) and I absolutely loved it! Everyone was so welcoming! After my first class I knew this was the place for me. All the instructors have their very own teaching style and it's amazing to go in and try something new every class. A big thank you to everyone at Garage Pilates! So happy I came across this studio. read more

This is the perfect studio for a beginner to get familiarized with pilates. Classes for advanced and intermediate practices are held separately. Until I discovered Garage Pilates I was too intimidated to actually take a class. All of the instructors are sweet with their own style/flair to meet the needs of each student. I'm completely hooked and absolutely love coming here. read more

Best spot in Los Al! Always a vibrant energy and the owner and staff, best team!

I started going to Garage Pilates about a year ago; I have been doing pilates about 3.5 years total. Garage Pilates is a bit pricier than most because there are only 4 per session. I wasn't sure if I could afford it but after this morning's workout, I am going to mortgage my house so I can afford it. I have only taken classes with 3 of the instructors so far and all 3 have been phenomenal. Each have their own styles, bring their own energy and expertise but all equally awesome. This morning I took a class with Leslie. She was a sub so she was new to me. It was one of the most creative and beautifully choreographed routines I have ever done on a reformer. It was well thought out and it wasn't that the moves were hard but rather they were intricate, creative and beautiful. I felt like an acrobat. I was so energized after this morning's workout and my body feels so strong-sign of a good workout. Thanks, Leslie & Garage Pilates! read more

Adore this local studio and really appreciate the small class sizes. I've been attending Gina's and Carlin's beginner classes, and they have been kind yet assertive instructors. Only regret is not signing up sooner! read more

I asked my girlfriend (who's in phenomenal shape) what she did for exercise and she attributed her lean and toned physique to Garage Pilates. I had never tried Pilates but have always been curious, so I wanted to ease into it with a one on one session with the owner, Kristin. She was amazing. She has a calm and encouraging way about her. She guided me through each movement and helped make Pilates a lot less intimidating. I left feeling excited about my next class. Now, only after 3 months, I feel my core is much stronger and I'm way more flexible. I've also tried their Pilates/yoga class and Pilates jumpboard class. These classes are challenging yet still fun! I highly recommend you try a class. read more

What a great studio. I'm new to pilates and the instruction is perfect. This is a small class size, personal instruction and it's very, very clean. I recommend Garage Pilates to everyone. Five stars for sure! read more

Very friendly staff. Have been coming here for about 6 months and tried almost every instructor. Small class, 5 reformers total. Perfect for those who are just beginning pilates or intimidated by big classes. Every workout is different so you won't be bored. read more

Highly recommend Garage Pilates! Erin is an awesome instructor, and for me being a first timer she was very patient with me. Will be coming back again read more

This place is great. I've been going here since they opened in May and currently take the 50 min reformer class. Since I've been doing pilates, I'm more flexible, my abs & core are stronger and overall feel better. The classes go by quickly thanks to the instructor and I always feel good after a workout. The place is located between Kampai and the Thai place, behind Hofs Hut. Check out their website, garagepilates.net read more

I have nothing but high stars for Garage Pilates. I am really addicted to this workout. I started pilates after hurting my knee and needed an "gentle" workout but little did I know. I work every little muscle of my body without killing my joints or having back pain after endless burpees or whatever. I feel so much stronger . I really feel the change in my body and I crave this workout. I really recommend this place! Kristin (the owner ) and all the instructors are super sweet but tough and encouraging ( and they are all in excellent shape ) . I'm really hooked! read more

Started my Pilates journey not so long ago with garage Pilates and I now look forward to coming in for a class every week ! The instructors and the teacher trainee instructors are great at teaching / helping and making you feel welcomed ! read more

Love love love garage Pilates! Finally found a work out that works for me and keeps me motivated. You sweat and get an awesome workout and also feel nice and stretched. Erin is my girl, but honestly all the teachers are awesome. Well worth the money! read more

This place is clean, swanky and friendly. The instructors are amazing and will differentiate the class according to the varying abilities of the students. BTW there are only 5 students in each class. It's a studio, not a gym franchise. read more

I am so grateful to be able to attend classes at Garage Pilates. They have so many amazing teachers, all with a little bit different style that keeps it fun, fresh and challenging every single class. If I could give GP 10 stars, I would! read more

I was going to try this studio out. I came walking up and there were so many children running around and screaming. No parental supervision. It was complete mayhem! Who would want to come here and have to hear screaming children all over the place. Would not recommend this place to anyone. I think it would be quieter at knotty berry farm. Try someplace else **** all of the children belonged to people in your studio. They were not being attended to. So, no thanks. read more

Love How Kristin vocalizes all the specific moves so you know just what to do! And that balance chair is so fun!

I have to say Garage Pilates has kept me sane during this quarantine! They have been offering free workouts on YouTube since we can't use their studio at this time. If you are looking for a great at home workout during this time you want to check out their YouTube channel!!! I can't wait to get back into the studio! read more

Omg. Seriously cannot say enough good things about Garage Pilates. Kristin, the owner, is passionate, compassionate and above all, a pilates guru. Take class with Erin or Lesli (all the instructors are great, they're the best), you won't regret it. Easy to buy classes and book on the app they use. read more

I took a yoga class here as part of a special event on Valentine's Day and it left me sore for days! Jackie will kick your butt (in the really good, most amazing way possible) but keep you smiling the whole time! Kristin, the owner, is the sweetest and will make you feel welcome the instant you walk in! Highly recommend this cute little studio! read more

This studio is amazing!!! Pilates yoga and reformer classes I've taken all of them many times with all their instructors and I have had the best experience with the most amazing results. I injured my knee over two years ago and this is how I rehabilitated it and strengthen it. From a torn ACL to a totally healed one with no surgery is pretty amazing! All thanks to garage Pilates. read more

I LOVE this Pilates studio. I often take Reformer classes that only have 4 people on the reformers so the class isn't too big. I'm a huge fan of Kristen (the owner's) approach to Pilates and can't recommend this studio enough. The instructors work with you around your physical limitations. I recently had knee surgery and the classes are part of my rehabilitation. read more

Literally love this place. The staff is friendly, the place is super clean (so imp), the classes are amazing, and they cater to the needs of everyone. From beginners to Pilate regulars. A must place to try out to get your body moving and in shape. read more

Kristin is a great pilates instructor. She keeps me laughing and also offers personal and detailed instruction. Great for a beginner or an experienced pilates participant. read more

I was new to Pilates and found this gem of a studio about one year ago! Kristin is an amazing and knowledgeable instructor, I take private lessons and attend her classes. There is always something new to learn or a new piece of equipment to master. You will not be disappointed. read more

Love this studio! Small and personable . Most knowledgeable staff . Love Lisa and her amazing wealth of body awareness !

My wife and I have been attending semi-private Pilates sessions at Garage Pilates for three months or so. Enthusiastic and experienced instructors help keep us motivated and willing to experiment with more challenging routines. It is a smaller studio compared to some but it's not been an issue for us. read more

I love this studio and the owner/teacher Kristin. She is so knowledgeable and kind and the studio is adorable and convenient. Highly recommend to anyone who wants to get a great workout! read more

I love love love Garage Pilates. I'm a self confessed newbie and Kristin is patient with me and great at teaching me the terms and moves while at the same time keeping her advanced clients engaged. I cannot recommend Garage Pilates enough! read more

This pilates studio is AMAZING! Each instructor is so knowledgeable and their personal love of pilates shows through their teaching. Each has their own way of queuing up the moves and I love signing up with different instructors for that reason. I have not had one instructor there that I didn't end the session without feeling like I had a great workout. They are also great at modifying the moves if you have an injury or like a bad back or knee. Aside from the amazing instructors, one thing I truly love about this studio is all the other clients are friendly and kind people. The instructors and clients all create a great comfortable studio! And now they have bounce classes on the rebounders, which is becoming a favorite of mine!! read more

Best pilates class ever! I've done the large group classes at a big name Pilates studio in my area, but I never felt like I was understanding the exercises and using proper form. I did a couple of lessons at Garage Pilates while visiting family in the area. My aunt recommended this "great new studio" which we decided to try. I felt like the instructor made it more relatable and gave excellent verbal cues and descriptions so that I was getting an effective workout. I will definitely return to Garage Pilates again when I'm in town visiting my family. read more

I'm not much of a workout enthusiast, I've stuck to the basics most of my life. So the thought of trying a Pilates reformer class was a bit intimidating to me, wasn't sure what to expect. I decided to sign up for a class at Garage Pilates and give it a go. I was able to schedule and pay online, which I found super convenient. I'm so happy I did, from the moment I walked in Kristen who is the instructor and owner was very warm and welcoming. The studio is small, about 5 reformers so you always get that personal attention, especially for someone like me who's just starting out, it is also very clean and peaceful. I LOVED it, her attention to detail when explaining each movement and the real mind body connection you get from the workout is something you don't get from the gym. Definitely a must try! read more

I can't say enough about this pilates instructor. She is upbeat, encouraging, supportive, understanding, totally personable. She's highly knowledgeable and a great teacher. She takes your personal experiences and considers any health issues or injuries before beginning a program. I would highly recommend her to anyone serious about staying in shape and improving their overall health. I would give her 10 stars if I could! read more

I had been doing may Pilates on and off for a few years but have never tried the reformer. I was always a little intimidated by it! I tried Garage Pilates and it is an awesome workout! Pilates is a great way to stretch, strengthen and tone, or help any back issues. It has done wonders for me and I can already tell a difference! This studio is super clean, and nicely decorated. It has a very calming atmosphere. Kristin is just as amazing and makes you feel at home without intimidating you! I have scoped out several Pilates studios, and this one is very well priced and you leave feeling great. Worth every penny! Thank you Kristin! read more

Love this place. Love the owner Kristen. She is genuine, sweet, passionate, AND she is a master or her craft. Jackie is just as amazing with her Yoga classes! You know what I really appreciate about these two? I can't remember a time when I've seen them without a smile on their face and genuinely happy to see you. They instantly put you in the right frame of mind and ready to go. There are other instructors who I'm sure are equally awesome but I haven't met them yet. Conveniently located in the heart of Los Alamitos with a class schedule that is easy to fit into your personal schedule. They really do foster a sense of community and authenticity which sets it apart from any other studio. Garage Pilates really does make you feel like you're at home in the garage (a very nice boutiquey garage) with family. read more

Kristen is an amazing instructor. I've never done Pilates before but Kristen was welcoming, friendly, and explained everything beautifully! Kristen explains every single movement describing how I should be squeezing and tightening my muscles. Her voice is very calming and reassuring. I even did a little meditation. I highly suggest giving Garage Pilates a try! I absolutely love Garage Pilates. read more

Pilates is an excellent and challenging workout, and this is a great studio. Clean, calm, airy, lots of natural lighting. The owner/instructor Kristin is tremendous - friendly and encouraging, while also paying very close attention to your body positioning so that you are focusing on the proper technique and getting the most out of the workout. Highly recommended. read more

I've been doing Pilates for more than 15 years. After a class you should feel as if you've gotten a total body workout. When coming to Garage Pilates the classes are well rounded with clear instruction. Kristen does a fantastic job of adjusting her cues and movements to accommodate both advanced and beginning clients. I always leave feeling work in my abs, arms, back and legs. And taller!! I love coming to this studio! Lots of natural light and very clean.
