If…read moreyou are looking for a low impact workout that will make you feel like you put in work, try Pilates! I moved to the area for a temp job and decided to try out Pilates for the first time. I had only done a college mat Pilates class and struggled a ton (but liked the challenge). It is really great that they require the intro class. It helped teach me a lot of basics and get use to the feeling. They give a chat to try and get you to become a member, but it doesn't feel predatory by any means. I only would buy class packages during my 3 months and then ended up paying for some individuals. Never did I feel pressured to sign up for a membership during my 3 months. But I will absolutely miss coming here. Every workout felt great and fulfilling. I have never been so consistent with workouts. My last month and a half, I went twice a week. Really did wonders for my mental health and fitness. I'm considering joining another Club Pilates back at home! So thank you to all the amazing people here!

This was my 2nd class in this location as I took the first class back in Nov of 2021. I purposely…read moresigned up for a day class where there were only 5 participants (good instructor to student ratio, IMO). Although the reformers are nicely spaced, but I still preferred a smaller crowd due to the Omicron situation. Everyone had to wear a mask properly while working out. The instructor wore one as she walked around the room. Nice work-out with clear instructions but any corrections. Sometimes I wonder if I was doing the pose correctly. I was glad to take another class but probably will wait out until the virus situation is more controlled. It wasn't easy to work out with a mask as it was hard to breathe (have mild asthma). Pilates is a great body workout and please try when you have a chance. Ample parking and clean/modern interior.

The small maximum class size means attention to the individual, especially appreciated and important with my aging body. I like its being privately owned not part of an impersonal corporation.
