I can't say enough good things about Kor and its incredible team. From day one they've been…read moreattentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping every client progress safely and confidently. They take the time to correct form, explain movements, and tailor exercises so you feel challenged and supported. I also really appreciate that all of Kor's instructors are trained and certified through highly reputable, internationally recognized programs such as BASI and Balanced Body. Their training and professionalism truly show in the quality of instruction and the attention to proper alignment and injury prevention. The community here is just as special -- the owners, Rebecca and Paul, are welcoming and genuinely care about everyone who attends Kor, and the other attendees are kind, encouraging, and supportive. It never feels intimidating, which makes it easy to stay consistent. After consistently attending both small group classes and private sessions with Tania and Lara, I've noticed a huge improvement in my flexibility and core strength -- movements that used to feel impossible now feel natural. As a bonus, I've also experienced steady weight loss, better posture, and fewer everyday aches. I especially appreciate the late evening (7:30pm!) classes offered during the workweek, which make it possible to fit fitness into a busy schedule without stress from my long commute. The studio itself is clean, positive, and motivating, but what really sets it apart is the instructors' expertise and encouragement. They make every session productive and enjoyable, whether you're brand new to Pilates or experienced. Highly recommend to anyone looking to feel stronger, move better, and actually enjoy working out!

They are passionate, caring, and attentive to every detail. Their intentional approach ensures every movement has purpose, which really helps me get the most out of each class in a meaningful and beneficial way. I also recommend KOR because it is a small business. I've taken classes at corporate studios, and while they may be good, KOR emphasizes quality over quantity, and you feel the personal difference right away. The individualized attention, supportive environment, and thoughtful instruction really makes this studio exceptional! I highly recommend KOR. It's good for both mind and body!

Took a Reform x Strength class via Class Pass to try out this new studio, as I was really looking…read moreinto different studios to consider for a "home" studio. The flow and class structure itself was good, and the instructor was good too. This was the first studio I've been to where you're assigned a reformer to use for the duration of the class, and I got assigned the reformer with absolutely no mirrors at all: None. I couldn't even see myself in the reflection of other mirrors. For my first time here, this made a terrible first impression. Luckily, I'm pretty good with my body awareness for coaching queues, and have experience with a reformer, but if you're a visual learner, and it's your first time trying pilates, or you're still not comfortable with it, it would have been very hard to keep up with the class. I'd suggest either adding mirrors to this area, or getting rid of this reformer altogether. Paying the same price as others for a sub-par experience is just not how you want customers to feel. The whole point of Pilates is to be aware of your movement and control: how can you do this, if you can't even see yourself? Even the instructor said I was doing good for having no mirrors, since "it's very hard to do without mirrors". Lastly, the platform on this reformer squeaked SO much. I feel so SO self conscious and bad whenever it would make a sound to the point where I stopped the workout altogether because I felt like I was detracting from others' experience: again, not being able to even complete a workout isn't what you want the customer's experience to be like. Overall, I would not recommend this studio based on my first experience. There's lots of other studios who made me feel like my money would be worth spending there, but not this one.

I love this location because of the convenience, intimacy of the class, ease of parking, and proximity to home. In addition, as someone who has a variable schedule, this studio I've found has the most availability for classes. However, getting to trial classes at some of the other locations (Costa Mesa, Fountain Valley), there is only one con of taking workout classes here: the mirror set up! While I was taking the class, I was in a place where I couldn't see myself in the mirror and look at my form which was unfortunate. My instructor Alexa was kind enough to give me and several others who were in the middle of mirrors form corrections throughout the class. Otherwise, this would get 5 stars from me!

I feel safe and cared for by all instructors. Additionally, I have been working through a knee issues for nearly two years and these instructors are excellent with modifications, etc., still ensuring that I am safe AND get a great workout. The equipment is excellent and well maintained - they have the traditional and amazing Pilates reformers, Pilates chairs, towers, etc. that allow us to get a total body workout and never get bored with either a particular class or teacher. One of my favorite classes is the Powerplate circuit class - AMAZING. A fantastic workout that flies by and has helped me gain strength, endurance, and flexibility. The schedule is also very accommodating - early morning to late evening. All of the class members are considerate and friendly as well. I never feel the need to "dress up" and I never feel judged. Overall, I think that Sweat HB is the best choice for high quality workouts (from gentle to intense!!) that fit any schedule and any fitness level.

The instructors are incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, and encouraging -- they each bring something unique to their classes while maintaining a consistently high standard of instruction. What makes this place so special, though, is the community. It's a warm, welcoming environment full of strong, inspiring women who uplift one another. There's no ego or intimidation -- just a shared commitment to growth, strength, and self-care. Thanks to the consistent guidance and care from the instructors, my body has completely transformed. I feel stronger, more aligned, and more confident than ever before. I can't recommend this studio enough -- whether you're new to Pilates or have been practicing for years, you'll find something truly special here.

The studio is tucked away in this plaza, in the corner next to some other restaurant. Parking was super easy to find. The process to sign up and make it to class was pretty seamless.

I started with one class, then two, then three per week. Now I am on the unlimited plan and go as often as I can. The coaches: HBP only hires the best of the best. I've taken classes with Jillian (the owner, tough and brilliant), Madison (strong dance background, limitless energy, very kind), Lisa (all about precise technique, no nonsense), Peggy (strong yoga background, fun boot camp activities ), Imani (pro dancer, super chill but not easy, very cool music), Patrick (Marines style tough!!!), Dan (very detailed and helpful), and Sara (the most positive person in the world, great for beginners or advanced athletes). The facilities: All city owned venues. Murdy and Edison Community Centers- virtually identical, nice rooms Senior Center in Central- sparkling new facility, they have gear ready to use, super convenient City Gym - very cool old building, well maintained with hardwood floors, and showers!!! Edison is closest to my house, but the senior center is my favorite. You must be 55+ to use the gym, but group fitness rooms are open to all The vibe: All are welcome. This is a big deal for me and why I am a customer for life. All shapes and sizes, people with chronic pain, muscular, thin, plus size, young, old, it really doesn't matter... EVERYONE is welcome. They will customize your workout experience even in large classes. The coaches will make sure you are OK. If you have an injury, you will get modified instructions tailored to your needs. The other clients are very cool. Mellow, happy, joking, one big family. The coaches care about you and want you to reach your goals. The price: You get back so much more than you give. Also, you will not find more inexpensive classes at other local studios. Think Pilates is only for rich people? Not at HBP. The largest investment is your time. It's worth it. My recommendation: Sign up today. Start with Mat Pilates. When you are feeling stronger, try Lean & Fit and Barre. Take yoga if you need to manage stress (I do!) but know that all of the above classes help to reduce stress. You cannot go wrong with HBP! Thank you Jillian for all that you do for your clients!

Overall, the environment wasn't welcoming. The studio lacks aesthetic appeal, the equipment felt outdated, and the overall vibe was unfriendly. I attended one class and did not return.
