Love Mighty Pilates! Super clean, well equipped, with friendly instructors/staff, and a clean bathroom with lockers. I've taken a foundations class and a regular class here with two different instructors and they were all great. Randomly, I really enjoy the mints they have at the front desk (mint lifesavers... haven't had those in forever!). The only tricky thing about this studio is street parking can be a little rough, especially first Fridays and I think second (?) Tuesdays during street cleaning. Be sure to come a little early so you can find a spot and walk over! read more

Mighty Pilates is hands down my favorite pilates studio in Berkeley. The space was so well done with the high ceilings & amazing natural sunlight which made it more enjoyable for those early morning workouts. I've tried multiple instructors & all were thorough & helpful. I especially loved cardio pilates to add a unique twist to the typical reformer workouts. The facility has a water machine if you ever need a refill or forgot to bring your bottle. The bathroom has lockers but they also have a shoe rack where you can store your items. Parking in the area is easy, for free parking, just park in the neighborhoods which are around the corner. Location is great especially if you are needing a coffee or smoothie post pilates class. Overall, I really love Mighty and hope they expand into the peninsula! read more

I've been coming to Mighty Pilates for several months now. The studio has little touches like cold water machine, nice bathroom space, and lockers that help elevate this studio from others. Classes are always a challenge and I've tried multiple instructors including Lori, Tam, and Shannon. All are friendly and can give a great workout. Since classes are a little larger compared to some other studios, there can be variety of skills and classes may be a little fast or slow depending on the instructor/folks in the class. Great space for a reformer workout, but not as personalized in classes as a smaller studio. read more

I've been going to the Lafayette location for a few months and was thrilled to hear they'd be opening up a studio in my neighborhood! I went on opening day for the first ever class (yes, I was very pumped!) and had a great class with Lori. I've also become a member this month as well. Everyone is friendly, the space is gorgeous - full of character and lovely skylights for the natural sunshine during my workout. I've never stuck to becoming a regular at a local studio but MP is my new thing. It's been helping me build my core strength and I've historically had a lot of problems. Proud of my improvement and grateful for the nice instructors at both MP East Bay locations. Have to say -- what I think is especially great about the Berkeley location is nice touch of lockers and some extra space to change, etc. Love it. Hoping to get in many more great workouts and seeing the community around the studio grow! read more

Mighty Pilates Berkeley - Opening day photo Main room full of reformers - Pilates Near Me - Berkeley, California

I've taken the Re:Form, Booty & Core, and Power Pilates/Advanced classes at the Lafayette & Berkeley studios, 12:1 reformer to instructor ratio. It was off putting in a recent class when the instructor didn't effort to learn clients names and called everyone 'Hun'. You couldn't tell whose form they were trying to correct and give instruction to. read more

I really enjoyed reformer pilates here! The studio space is really quaint with nice amenities like lockers, coffee, filtered hydration station. I've taken two classes and both instructors gave amazing adjustments and help with alignment, they were so helpful. The space is always kept clean. The burn feels so good! My only dislike is that the studio is open above and not sound proof. You can hear everything in the lobby and if people are having private lessons next door. However It seemed to only be an issue one time in class. read more

Very cute studio with nice amenities in a safe neighborhood. Helpful and friendly front desk/staff. Had the Re:Form class with Shannon. She was cool but it felt more like a stretching class than a strength-building exercise. This feels a lot easier than most other pilates classes. Maybe I was doing some of the exercises wrong? Depends on what you're looking for. For me, if I wanted stretching, I could get a deeper stretch at yoga class. And if I wanted more low impact strength work, I would go to a different pilates studio. read more

Nice comfortable space! Welcoming and friendly. The teachers are friendly and approachable.

1st time doing pilates and I had a great experience with Stephanie's beginner course. I was recommended by a friend to check out this studio for beginners and this place did not disappoint. The studio was new and super clean which I love! Stephanie was very welcoming and made my mom and I feel very welcomed. It was easy to follow her instructions and helped make any corrections if necessary. At the end of the day, I was pooped, my abs were burning and my legs were tender but it was a light soreness, not too crazy where I would dread going again. If you're someone who wants to get toned and feel great after with low impact on your joints, I recommend trying out the reformer Pilates. I tried out this class with classpass and it was easy to sign up. Tip: Try to get there a bit early because there is no parking lot. You will have to pay for meter parking on the street or find parking in the neighborhood. read more

Sorry forgot photos but my experience was excellent. Had two classes so experiences two instructors... Lori and Lauren. Both were kind, dynamic, managed multiple skill levels at the same time. I really like the studio on Ashby... Seemed clean, light filled. They had loaner grip socks, which was nice and also an espresso machine for a free latte. There is some local parking for two hours.about $42 per class. read more

Love Kasia with her core and booty workout on reformer! Her accent is so beautiful too! She is very detail oriented and makes me work my best. My ab and waist line is already shaping nicely and my glutes are also getting strong! Other teachers are good too, but I prefer hard work over hugs and rainbows :) I only go there on Thursdays to see her! read more

Great class, but the front desk woman was quite rude to us -- not sure if it was because we were Asian, beginners, or something else. We took a 1pm class on 3/8. Don't think we will be back. read more

I tried to do 3.5! But it's like closer to 4....anyway I like this studio! It's nice and *most* of the teachers are great. There have been instances which make me question if somethings happening because I'm Black or not but other than that I will keep going bc I haven't found too many studios in the east bay that are comparable and unfortunately health & wellness is very white dominated. There were also times when I felt the studio and machines could have been a little cleaner but overall I've had a mostly positive experience at mighty. Tamantha and Shannon are my favorite instructors. read more

I've been a member since October and cannot say enough good things about this studio! Awesome instructors with great skill, knowledge and innovative classes. Thank you for all you do! Lauren, Lori, Jessica, Madison you inspire me. The ladies at the front desk are so sweet as well! Love Mighty and highly recommend read more

I recently added Pilates to my workout routine to strengthen my core. I love coming to this space in Berkeley. Parking is easy in the nearby neighborhood. I just have to look the other way when I walk past the donut shop next to the studio ;-) I like the variety of classes and instructors, all of them are super nice. I enjoy early morning classes, before work. Sometimes I shower there before heading to the office. Everything is provided - towels, a blowdryer, shampoo. And after probably 30 classes, I have yet to come to a class where I didn't learn something new. Every class has unique elements, which makes Pilates so different from other workout classes I have taken, which are usually repetitive. Its fascinating how much of a burn one can get with a little ball, a light weight, or a cable. I already see a change in my body with these exercises. My core has definitely gotten stronger and more defined. read more

Love the class I took with Stephanie! Her attention to detail and her instructions in classes are top-notch. I keep coming back to Mighty Pilates, and so far, my experience has been eye-opening to learn how my body moves from one form to another seamlessly. It may seem easy, but when correctly applied, it is challenging. read more

Pilates first timer! I haven't worked out in years, but when I saw Mighty was opening in Berkeley, something told me to try, and I am so glad I did! By far my favorite and the best workout I have ever done. I just started going but am already excited for classes rather than dreading working out. I did three private lessons to get acquainted with Lauren and Britt. Both instructors were warm, patient, and tailored the sessions to what was best for me and my body. The workouts are fun, but you definitely feel the burn, so I am excited to keep practicing and getting stronger. So excited to start classes here this week! Highly recommend Mighty, and it doesn't hurt the studio is cute and inviting! read more

See all

Love this place! Ambiance and aesthetics 10/10. Lori and Stephanie are the top two best instructors I've had here.

Good instructors. Good vibe. Nice bathroom. A little pricey compared to other Pilate studios.

This was my first experience with pilates and it was so great! I signed up for a semi-private class with Britt and she was awesome. She me feel very comfortable, walked me through how to use the machine, and answered any questions I had throughout the session while she guided me through the entire workout. I felt both challenged and supported the entire time. I went into this not knowing what to expect, but afterwards felt a new level of respect for pilates and am now incorporating classes into my schedule. Britt made this entire experience so seamless and stress free which I really appreciated. The studio is also very clean, new, and fully stocked! Highly recommended. read more

Cannot recommend this studio enough!! I first learned about Mighty Pilates through ClassPass and I'm so glad I did. The team there is incredibly welcoming, helpful and knowledgable. They offer a Mighty Foundations class that is perfect for beginners and feeling comfortable using a reformer. When I took my first ever pilates class here, I didn't realize how much I'd love it and it's been so fun trying out the different level classes since then. I've enjoyed each instructor's class and am always amazed how each class has a unique flow that feels both challenging and relaxing. This spot is a gem and to anyone thinking about trying out pilates, I recommend checking out this studio! read more

Just want to add that I've taken classes with several instructors here and they've all been great!

Love this studio new studio in Berkeley!! This studio is super cute and cozy. And they have the friendliest staff and all the amenities a girl hold as for! I suggest trying a private class if your new to Pilates. Lori was really great at helping figure out the machines and showing me the basics. I can't wait to take more classes here!! read more

I can't say enough great things about this studio. I've been coming in for classes for some time and while I have my favorite instructors, I can wholeheartedly say that they are all fantastic. The studio is beautiful with great little amenities like hair ties in case you forget yours, feminine products, makeup wipes, dry shampoo and even mini tooth brushes. The front desk staff is lovely and Sofia, the studio manager is always so attentive and great. I'm so excited this studio opened up so close to me. Check it out if you haven't done so already! read more

Mighty Pilates is the best Pilates studio anywhere in the United States! They have the best instructors and equipment. Their Co-owner Michele goes so far above and beyond with her customer service and dedication. read more

Beautiful space and great teachers. Appreciate the focus on form and modifications, while still keeping it challenging. Nice amenities like chilled towels and coffee...apparently Fridays has champagne after class?? I will definitely be a regular. read more

Terrible customer service!! I rescheduled a class and they didn't update the system and charged me and were quite rude over the phone. Can't comment on the Pilates, but service was awful and unprofessional. Disappointing. read more

Staff is super friendly, instructors are incredibly knowledgeable and the studio is GORGEOUS. No better studio in the area!

Beautiful studio! While I've only taken one class here after several in Lafayette, I've come to the conclusion that Mighty Pilates has my favorite reformer classes. I always feel incredible after them -stretched and strong and poised. Highly recommend!!! read more

Very professional classes and instructors, staff members are friendly! Good environment and clean machines.

LOVE Mighty Pilates! So excited for this new location and beautiful studio - Berkeley is lucky to have them!

The people here are so sweet and the classes are the best. I feel that we have found the all around top Pilates studio.

I had the most amazing experience at Mighty Pilates. All the instructors/workers are so caring, kind and helpful and it is such a clean and pretty environment! read more

Mighty Pilates is my favorite studio in Berkeley! It is such a beautiful and open space. I've tried all the instructors and everyone is amazing and all so friendly! This studio is definitely beginner friendly but also has more intermediate to advanced classes as well. They make it so welcoming and not intimidating if it's your first time and explain how to use the reformer machines really well. The privates are also amazing with skilled instructors giving me the best and quick results! read more

I have had physical challenges for about 15 years post-accident, and have been in the process of a very long and slow recovery to get back my strength and capabilities. I decided to try Pilates, since I heard so much about the positive benefits and focus on core-building. I had a series of 8 private classes with Stephanie L. at Mighty Pilates in Berkeley (Elmwood location). My experience was really positive, and I highly recommend the practice of pilates in general for recovery and strengthening. More specifically, I highly recommend Stephanie L. if you're looking for a trainer! She is an awesome coach and is so aware and attentive of her client's physical needs, limitations, possibilities, etc. She knows when and how much to push, and also when to pull back with the intensity of the work out. She made me feel like anything was possible! My body got so much stronger, and I would look forward to my weekly pilates sessions that left me feeling literally euphoric (no kidding). The Berkeley location is also really great--plenty of parking in a lovely, tree lined neighborhood, cute shops, clean facilities, really nice people. A valuable investment in one's health. I give Stephanie L. and Mighty Pilates Berkeley 5 stars! read more

good packages, lots of options for classes and doesn't usually fill up until the day of
