I attended for a few months. Took several classes: Suspense, cardio, reformer 1, reformer 1.5,…read morerestore, control, sculpt. 4 stars if you take at least 2 classes a week, 3 stars for new people joining the club. Taking reformer pilates is like going a private gym, except instead of having several different machines you go to, it's combined into mostly one machine plus extra equipment. I don't usually sweat too much from the majority of classes but it feels great for toning muscles and strength. There's a lot of challenge in doing the workouts where you have to hold yourself up or plank. Weight workouts don't get too intense so there's more focus on core/abs/glutes and sometimes leg for me. -Equipment is a bit worn but in relatively good condition. -I wouldn't take the Restore again unless I had a major injury and needed something very chill, i.e. it's not worth using the credits if you don't have unlimited classes per month. Cardio was the most interesting but it's also a little scary the first time you do it because of how you move up and down the machine. Reformer 1 and 1.5 are bread and butter classes that are pretty solid. Experience can change depending on who is teaching. -Instructors are nice, but a big pain point is that there's so many different exercises that if you're not familiar with pilates it could leave you confused. -For a small class I think there should be more supervision on the students to see if they are doing the workouts properly. Some instructors do, some don't, sometimes they'll check randomly. I understand it can delay class to spend too much time helping someone out, but this seems to be somewhat of an issue for beginners. I've brought several people new to reformer to try out the classes and they are often looking around because they don't know what to do and don't always get enough help. -Marketing can be a little persistent, had to go in-person a few times to clarify things but in-person staff is generally friendly. One thing I never figured out: why do all workouts end with feet in straps? Is that normal? (it is one of my favorite cool downs).

After hearing of all the great benefits that Pilates has to offer, I decided to give Esteem Pilates a shot and I'm so glad that I did. The instructors are all extremely welcoming and my instructor Erin is the best. She teaches me and guides me through every movement and goes at the pace and level that I am comfortable with. She knows exactly when to push me so that I get a great workout while keeping my inexperience in mind. I have been going for a few weeks and I already see and feel the benefits. My lower back pain is gone and I feel my core strengthening. I also see a huge difference when I play volleyball and am overall more athletic. If you're hesitating to begin Pilates, I highly recommend Esteem Pilates because they will make sure you feel comfortable while getting stronger.

I've taken two classes with Pattianna at LBX and I really wish that she taught more classes here!! She programs the workout to wear it is challenging enough for you to shake and sweat, but you can still finish the workouts. Yes, you're tired and shook she tells you to do pushups after all that but she does it with you and she kicks your butt. Shes super meticulous while giving a hard workout! She students form and pays attention to our rep speed. One of my fave instructors here for sure. I recommend all fitness enthusiasts and PIlates Princesses come take classes with her cuz she will def give you a hard workout.

You'll definitely work out muscles that you didn't even know you had and some of the classes are so brutal. But it's totally worth it. All the coaches so far have been wonderful. The class setting is smaller so it feels more intimate. Nobody makes you feel awkward too if you have no idea what you're doing. Sometimes it can go a bit fast but the coaches do demo the exercises. I like this place a lot for reformer Pilates :)

I noticed that a lot of the clients are Korean and even saw a classes led by a Korean speaking instructor. The space is clean and there are locker cubicles and a clean bathroom inside the space. I would definitely come here again if I feel like splurging on private lessons again.

She is very attentive and patient and modifies as needed according to the client. Note that this is not your modern-day pilates!

After struggling with being motivated to exercise, I saw an ad on IG about a free intro class. Since the video had people using a machine (reformer), I thought I could do this more than yoga which is more unsupported. Also, I've tried at home vids before and I felt that I did not know the correct forms bec I did not have an instructor to notice and correct my positions. What encouraged me to try it out was after I filled out the free intro class form online, the person who called me seemed so nice and competent, even asking about any physical challenges I may have. At this point esp with a free class, there was no reason for me not to try it out! Bec of the person who called me, I felt they would understand such as if I had a hard time, etc. When I did the intro class with Mildraide (who soon became one of my favorites), I was shaking with some of the exercises, but she did not make me feel like a failure. She also greeted me with a genuine welcoming kind smile, so even if she has more of a drilling style, I did not feel intimidated. I left still pondering if I should do it, but what sold me was from that first class, I felt I could stand up taller, my limbs were more flexible, and I had a spring on my step. I am so glad one of their staff members, Cameron, convinced me because I have become healthier from doing pilates and always encourage my friends to try. This review is also for one of my other favorite instructors, Yulia, who's classically trained in pilates. Ever since I started taking her classes, I saw a big difference in the mirror and pictures and I am not so bloated and my shape is more defined. Honestly, that alone will make me keep on going, but I love the stress release and boost I get from exercising. I have since upgraded to 8 classes per month because my body started to crave the exercise. I almost want to gatekeep Yulia's class cause I never want to have to be on a waitlist, but I hope she will work at this location for a very long time. I am honestly impressed by the variety of exercises and how she knows how many reps are reasonable to expect per level. I since moved up to her level 1.5 bec I know it's appropriate to the level and won't leave me discouraged or incapable. She's very professional and never humiliates. The other instructors and staff are also great, particularly at this location. I think there is a special happy and caring feeling in this particular site, and whenever I have questions or need help about my account, I get really helpful responses. So all in all, this is just as excellent as a pilates club can be.
