I've been going to The Yoga Roots (sister studio) for years, so I'm strong, but I'd only tried a…read morereformer once before, so the machines still intimidated me. I was nervous about looking clueless, breaking something, or holding the class back. Kim met me exactly where I was. She clocked that I was still pretty new to the reformer, and gave me more hands-on guidance while the more experienced people in the room kept moving. Same as TYR: the teachers read the room and meet everyone where they are. She challenged me without ever making me feel feel behind or inexperienced. The studio is clean, smells great, heated but not brutal, and the teachers clearly know what they're doing. It's a different kind of sore than yoga/mat pilates. A great supplement to a regular yoga or sculpt practice. If you've been curious about pilates but scared of the machines, start here.

was really disappointed with my experience here. The studio advertises classes as "all levels," but…read moreas a beginner, I did not feel welcomed or accommodated at all. The instructor and staff came across as unfriendly and unapproachable from the moment I walked in. At one point, I was told, "and that's why you don't wear shorts to Pilates," which felt unnecessary and embarrassing rather than helpful or professional. There also doesn't seem to be a proper front desk or welcoming environment for new clients, which made the experience even more uncomfortable. If you are truly beginner-friendly, instructors should create a supportive atmosphere instead of making people feel judged for not already knowing studio expectations. Unfortunately, I left feeling discouraged rather than encouraged. I've had much better experiences at LUMIX, where the environment feels welcoming, supportive, and genuinely inclusive for all levels.

I would definitely recommend In Perfect Balance to any and everyone who is looking for a Pilates studio in the area or interested in given Pilates a try.

Club Pilates Palmdale is a welcoming and supportive studio that makes fitness feel approachable for…read moreeveryone. What I appreciate is they help anyone with any fitness level work out. If you've never done Pilates (I hadn't!) or never worked out they will get you the specific guidance you need and there are different class levels so you can progress. These types of studios start at the front desk (no way I want to work out somewhere when the first person I meet is rude, but I've never had that issue.) Each of the front desk staff has always been welcoming and helpful...they get to know you so they check you in before you even tell them your name. Heck you'll even see the manager checking people in! The instructors each create an inclusive environment where all body types and fitness levels are celebrated, making it easy for beginners and seasoned athletes and everyone in between to get a good workout in. You may not feel like you're working hard but you'll feel it the next day! I also like that they will correct your form so you don't go months with doing it the wrong way. Whether you're building strength, improving flexibility, or just trying something new, Club Pilates is such a fun workout. Plus they offer free intro classes so you can see if you'll really like it.

I went to a few classes while I was in town visiting family, with three different instructors, and two of the three were hard to follow. The music was louder than their voices, guidance to the next pose was sometimes challenging to follow, and they used the traditional names for some asanas that most people may not know unless they are routinely exposed to the word. Overall it was a good experience, just wasn't what I am used to at my studio back home.

His helpfulness and great customer service was greatly appreciated.

I have been coming to this location for over three years, and throughout that time, the staff has…read morealways been very helpful and friendly. Unfortunately, my experience today, September 12, 2026, was very different. At approximately 11:10 a.m., as I was leaving the gym, I noticed that the location had received a new scale. I approached the front desk, which was occupied by two staff members, Aaron, the supervisor, and a female employee. I asked the female employee if I could use the new scale. Rather than responding or attempting to assist me, she simply stared at me. Aaron then stepped in and informed me that the scale was not available for use. I then returned to the restroom to retrieve something I had forgotten in the locker. When I came back out, I approached the front desk again and asked Aaron about the intended functionality of the new scale. While I was speaking with Aaron, I noticed that the female employee was looking at me with what appeared to be a very unpleasant or disgusted facial expression. I asked her if there was a problem. She asked what I meant, and I explained that when I initially approached her about the scale, she did not attempt to assist me and instead looked at me in a manner that I perceived as unwelcoming. She responded, "That is my face." I told her that if that was the way she presented herself to customers, she should reconsider working there, since her position involves customer service. I then asked for her name, and she refused to provide it, stating that she did not have to give me her name. I subsequently asked Aaron whether company policy requires employees to wear a name badge and/or provide their name when requested by a customer. Aaron informed me that employees are not required to wear a name badge or provide their names upon request. This was a very unpleasant and unexpected experience, particularly because I have been a customer at this location for more than three years and have generally had positive experiences with the staff. I believe this employee could benefit from additional customer service and de-escalation training, particularly regarding how employees communicate with and respond to customers. I would also appreciate clarification from management regarding the policy: Are employees not required to wear a name badge and/or identify themselves by name when requested by a customer? Thank you for taking the time to review my concerns. I hope management will address this situation appropriately and ensure that all staff members maintain the level of professionalism and customer service expected at this location.

They're always nearby to make sure my form is correct, and they never lose patience when I ask them to remind me how to do certain moves. Speaking of supervision, I went to Lift today for the first time in about a week and a half, and I told Chenell that I've been experiencing some pain in my left shoulder. She sent Dirk outside to talk to me about it, and after I described my symptoms, he re-wrote part of my workout and continued to check in to make sure I wasn't in any pain. I felt super safe and respected, and there was ZERO pressure for me to push through any discomfort. Hiiiighly recommend this place!

I've heard him say verbatim to a woman next to me, " that's because you're stupid". Another time " yeah, you're an idiot". He's demeaned me many times. I just accepted it as part of The Lift Silverlake Experience. One day I came in and said "nice new shirt and it looks fancy and you look nice.. which he replied to me "what about you? You look like you just rolled out of bed and put on dirty clothes". Which is hilarious because I was fresh out of the shower with fresh clean clothes.. I always showered before my workout because Dirk likes to make fun of people who smell. I was giving him a compliment but he doesn't know how to take it, so he spews hate. After that interaction he banned me from his paid social club. I said nothing except what I mentioned above and when questioned why I was banned, they simply said they didn't want to talk about it. I attached Dirk's email banning me so you can see that obviously I was a very good client and they never had issues in the past. I was never late. I never missed a session. I never acted inappropriately ever.. I spent over $6,000 dollars training with them. Dirk is a very troubled person and I hope he finds help for his mental issues. I wish everyone at Lift Silverlake the best and it would be a beautiful place without Dirk there with all his hate and spite. God bless and always sending prayers for peace, comfort and grace. Dirk and Chenell... People are paying you for a service. Not to be put down, bullied or traumatized. It's not just bad business, you're messing with peoples' lives, their goals and their ambitions. Please stop crushing people's passion for exercise. Lastly, he doesn't allow black people at the gym. He prefers white women and beta white men. If you don't get contacted back by them it's because they profiled your age, sex, and/or race with their interview process and didn't like you..
