I had a very disappointing experience with this Club Pilates location. I called the storefront to…read moreexplain an issue with a charge, and the worker I spoke with was extremely rude and hostile. I've already contacted my bank about it, but it was upsetting to receive such poor customer service from a company I spent hundreds of dollars on. I'm a college student, and I joined hoping to invest in a nice workout studio. Instead, I often felt mistreated. I would show up to classes excited, but most of the time the front desk staff would completely ignore me. Other members were greeted with "hello, welcome back!" while I was met with dirty looks when I walked in. I tried to brush it off at first, but it became increasingly frustrating. On top of that, classes were constantly canceled at the last minute. With a busy college schedule, I specifically booked early classes, only to receive cancellation emails less than 24 hours beforehand. When I tried to reschedule, the remaining classes were completely booked for the week. Overall, this experience has been frustrating and upsetting. After looking at other reviews, it's clear I'm not alone. Take this as a warning before signing up here. Really disappointing experience with this Club Pilates.

That is why I was shocked when I found another business in the area that rocks what they do, and a great value. This is Central Core! Central Core is hard to pin down exactly what they do (fitness studio, Pilates,group classes, etc?) as they offer so many unique classes. I met the owner & head trainer Misha. She is super passionate and knowledgeable in lots of aspects of training and getting the most out of your training time (super important). I decided to try the pilates class first. Pilates is the class that uses those cool glide type equipment and resistance straps. I have always wanted to try this, and glad I did. This class was lead by Misha. It was nice there was another man in the class and had another person who had done Pilates class before. The class really hit almost all the core body parts and enjoyed the WHOLE body experience. Misha tailored the exercises to each persons strengths and needs. Perfect class. I was sore and felt stronger all at the same time. With that positive experience I signed up for TRX (those cool yellow straps) and their pump and jump class (back to back classes, booya!). These were taught by Cameron another instructor here, and she was very helpful. She kept the class motivated and pushed us. I really liked both classes. The trx exercises really helped both isolate the muscles a good burn. I also appreciated that it helped give extra support for my knees while letting the exercises really work my muscles. The pump and jump is a modified Pilates class and switch off with weight training. I liked the Pilates jump and it really helped my focus on my legs and kept my knees strong. (Also fun to jump jump...) I really like the feel of the studio. Supportive staff that take the time to really care about us (the students) is just the start for an amazing experience. I would definitely recommend trying out a few classes (Pilates, trx), and see for yourself. What is your favorite class?

Change Your Life While Having Fun…read more.. My wife and I are seniors in our 70s, but remain active. I've gone to the gym 3 days a week for many years while she's taught Jazzercise and gone to Zumba classes for a long, long time. But something was missing. Pilates at Tabula Rasa is a kick in the pants. Pilates is meant to strengthen your core muscles. Between introductory sessions and a package of 10 classes for $275...all with the owner, Vanessa (although there are other trainers)... we've worked on things we didn't know existed. - Overall: 5 - Owner: 5+ - Getting Started: 5 - Range of Classes: 5 - Online Management: 5 - Yurt: 5 - Class Size: 5 - Personal Attention: 5+ - Cost: 4 - Location: 5 - Facilities: 5 - Parking in Dry Weather: 5 - Parking in Wet Weather: ? Pros: - The owner, Vanessa Dominguez, is amazing. Her knowledge, ability to explain and pay attention to each person even in a class of 2-6 people is uncanny. Her energy is breathtaking - literally. If we were back in the 1970s or 80s, Vanessa would be on TV with best selling videos. - Sample the equipment in her studio, ask whatever comes to mind and get a feel for what it's all about at no charge nor obligation. - There's a big range of classes at most hours of the day with several highly skilled and motivating instructors. - Managing your pilates schedule is simple, online and flexible. - All classes are behind Vanessa's house in a "yurt"...a big teepee shaped building with lots of equipment. It's actually quite spacious and comfortable with air conditioning and a big fan dropping down from the center. - Classes are limited to 6 people, although most we've seen had 2-4. Lots of personal care if you need it and each session is tailored to the attendees. - Cost is not "cheap", but reasonable - Location is convenient for residents of Nipomo - it's within a mile of Trilogy and Black Lake - and not bad for those in Arroyo Grande. - If you're hungry, thirsty or need a bathroom, she's got feee snacks, water and facilities. - There's a big parking lot in front of Vanessa's house for cars and trucks. Con: - Yes, there's one con. The parking lot is not paved so when the rainy season arrives there will probably be lots of mud. Our weekly pilates session changed our lives. Now all we've got to do is find a good place to park when things are wet.

There are no classes modified for a beginner or novice Pilates student on the regular schedule . thank you.
