Such a great studio with so much space! They also have a lot of space in the back with showers as well. Love it here!! Staff is super friendly and it's such a great workout Parking can be rough. Depending on the time of day. Get there early so you have plenty of time. But for my late morning classes, I usually have no trouble finding Street parking. Keep in mind you do have to pay the meter though. read more

I cannot rave about PLNK enough. I got to try a free class when I was potentially moving to STL and shopping around for a gym/workout space back in March, and loved it so much that I've been religiously going since relocating. It was the first Pilates studio I've ever been to and it remains the best out of all of the subsequent ones I've tried when I'm out of town. It's Lagree so a thorough butt-kicking is guaranteed, but I've never felt more fit in my entire life (and I used to have hours-long dance practices 5 days a week on top of having dance classes for my minor). I'd be lying if I said classes weren't a little bit pricey, but it makes it so worth if you commit to doing a membership (it basically pays itself; it's girl math, really). There are a handful of instructors depending on the days and times you attend. They're all pretty helpful with helping you fix your form and answering any questions you have, and it's always nice to be around people who are motivated and genuinely seem like they want to be there. I can't imagine my life without PLNK anymore and am forever praying that they branch out to more locations in the US so I don't have to settle for something else in my travels. read more

A real bait and switch: Beware, they will insist that you must buy their socks. I get it, they want you to stick to the sled for safety (I've done LaGree before). The women at the desk were real uptight b*tches about it: When I walked in the woman gave me a full and obvious up-down look, judged me on the way I looked immediately and did not offer any solutions to my lack of socks. I was turned away. It really set my day off on a bummer start - having rode my bike all the way there. Sucks to suck I guess? read more

High intensity, no impact? Say less. Walk in strong, leave stronger (maybe a little shaky, but that's what you come for). So many options for sticky socks, because no stick socks aren't an option (safety first!) read more

PLNK CWE - Shakes were had, megaformers reformers. - Pilates Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

Absolutely love coming here! I started coming to PLNK when I first move to STL and now just hit a year. The first 5 classes are a struggle but after you embrace the challenge and know what to expect. The results are addicting. Plnk has amazing instructors. Lily, Sarah, and Katie has great edm playlists to keep the class flowing and pumped. read more

PLNK CWE - Hit 100 plnk classes! - Pilates Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

I travel for work a lot and always try to pop into a Lagree studio when I get the chance. I taught Lagree for about 4 years, and am absolutely obsessed with the method and the way it's strengthened my body. When it comes to PLNK- this studio is the real deal. I had the privilege of taking Taylar's class Wednesday morning, and she is nothing short of phenomenal! She was so warm and inviting, and her class was incredible. It's very obvious that this studio takes the time to ensure their instructors are knowledgeable and personable. Taylar's routine flowed beautifully, and she gave easy-to-understand form corrections when necessary. I can't recommend this studio enough! Thank you PLNK and Taylar for welcoming me into your studio! read more

I started coming to PLNK CWE after getting a one month membership at a silent auction. I was pleased to find a challenging low impact exercise routine at convenient times for my work and home life schedule. After my month was finished I got some class passes and finally gave in to getting a membership. It's definitely a more expensive fitness option but a good workout if you can swing it. I was lucky to attend their community class and got 15% off my membership for attending. The setup is really great at this location as well. The high ceilings make me more comfortable with group fitness during covid and the bathrooms make it easy to get ready for work right after my class. read more

PLNK CWE - Pilates Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

I survived. And it felt like when I had to long pee over a toilet I didn't want to sit on. Then the legs start to really hurt but you can't move until you're done peeing. You know the feeling. Isometrics y'all. Mid day classes at this time have about 7-8 people. I'm guessing they're limiting the capacity. You have to wear your mask for the entire class. There's a current COVID special for $19/class so grabem up because it's normally kinda pricey ($30-something). It's the MindBody app to buy and sign up, you know the drill. Street parking in CWE - bring your parallel confidence and your ParkMobile app, you're gonna need it. The garage is right across the street so that's an option. Ooph, so, I'm a generally heavy weight lifter, kettle bell swinger, regular rower, rollerblader, and do some boxing. Fast paced stuff where you gotta dig up the testosterone and big tattoos are cool. Let's just say PLNK is for the long and lean. It will likely (I'll never know) give you that supermodel body. Admittedly, it's much better than yoga and the flexibility isn't required - hal-lay-loo-yah. These classes are heavy on the core and legs. I appreciate the leg work as it's more attainable for average fitness me. Loads of isometric core stuff is going to be easier for you if you're a big yogi or do pole dancing or silks, etc. Now this place is fancy! The design is cool, the music is good, the bathroom is sparkling, the merch is propped, AND they have rental sticky socks (that's the required gear). I've been through so many struggling new fitness studios since the capital investment is $$$ and this one has gone all in. Come check it out at least once, try something new and maybe you'll love it. read more

When they say HIGH intensity, LOW/No impact, that's what this is. Every time I leave PLNK I am shocked again what the mega is capable of and what my body can do. I have already told myself I will forever be a lagree athlete. The PLNK community is like no other, welcoming, creative, inclusive, yet I'm motivated and challenged every time I take a class. Kaci's 5 pm Monday and Fridays are my go to, all time favorite classes and would absolutely recommend her! read more

I've always wanted to try the megareformer, and found out about PLNK by accident. I was headed toward the Plaza Frontenac, and was actually going to grab a Starbucks I saw the signage for the studio in the same plaza. The second time was when I was at the Galleria to catch a movie. I saw an ad with a promo code for a free class, and made a mental note to check it out. While PLNK piqued my interest, the STL location was a little out of my way, so I never tried the class. Fast forward to the opening of the CWE location. I didn't realize it opened back in September 2018, and only recently tried my first class. It's an intense 50 minute workout. I've tried barre classes before, and those never cut it for me in terms of getting the shakiness or the post-workout muscle soreness to prove that I had a hard workout. Therefore, I was hoping PLNK's megareformers would give me the burn I wanted, and they definitely delivered. I was sore for days after. I typically go to the gym 4x/week, and this is a nice supplement. I feel like they focus more on core and lower extremities though. They incorporate some moves targeting the upper quarter (biceps, triceps, lats), but those never seem quite as difficult. It's kind of hard to pick up the moves (although they have fun/cute names like mermaid, sexyback, bear), so I'm constantly peeking around me trying to understand what's going on. I like the music and the energy of the classes. Another plus is that there's a ton of products in the bathrooms in case you need to freshen up- razors, qtips, dry shampoo, mouthwash, etc). They offer a decent number of packages, and have specials often or free classes as practice/training sessions for their new instructors. NOTE: You can buy the new client special ($150 one month unlimited) if you've visited 3 times or less. ALSO, they have student discounts!!! 15% off most packages. read more

My favorite workout! Definitely try it for the two week free trial -- it'll be worth it

Best Total Body Workout for building strength! Love the instructors and overall experience!! Great toning for women over 60 too!

I love PLNK! Such a welcoming environment and such a unique and challenging workout. I started going with the class pack and got quickly obsessed so I upped it with a membership. I've been going for a little over a year and can't say enough great things about this business! I cancelled my regular gym membership- this has forced me to get up and go to class. I've seen great results physically and mentally. I love going to Taylar, Brooke, and Erin! read more

This is one of the best workouts I have found to complement my running. It focuses on all the stabilizers that keep my legs strong to keep me moving mile after mile. All the teachers are so upbeat and supportive. While the machine (the megaformer) can look intimidating, they really make sure you feel welcome and safe during class. read more

I've always loved Pilates but never experienced megaformers until PLNK. After my first class I was hooked! The instructors make it seem effortless, but trust me it's one of the most challenging classes you'll ever attend. Every muscle fiber hurts and quivers, muscles that I didn't even know existed! At times I question if I'll last through the entire session, but I always feel like a champion when I walk out after a glorious 50 minutes dedicated to my body and mind. The studio is well designed, modern and clean. The music is popping and keeps me going. The only downside is the hefty membership price. If you can afford it, definitely check it out! read more

PLNK CWE - Megaformers - Pilates Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

So I wasn't expecting what I got. Class was intense, fast paced and great. I was pumped during class, the music was loud and bumping and the instructor Michael was not only great but his also a looker which makes the class better. Within 10-15 min after class my body is feeling the class. Amazing and a must go. read more

Big fan of this studio when I'm in STL visiting family. I love Michael's class- very challenging, while also really fun. Great vibe and motivating instruction! I do prefer the CWE location over the Clayton location. When I was at the Clayton location a woman in my class became "offended" by the music selection and the instructor had to change her entire playlist that the rest of us were enjoying! Pay for a private if you don't like the group class music! It was hard to watch the instructor feel like she had to accommodate that request as it just wasn't reasonable. Anyway, overall amazing studio with a fun light hearted vibe. Highly recommend. read more

PLNK CWE is a novel fitness class. The megaformer is a unique tool that will work out muscle groups that you can't necessarily work out with classic weightlifting at the gym. It'll leave you sore in places you would never think!! It's a very clean, high-end workout class that's located in the prime location on Lindell blvd in the central west end near yellow belly. All ages and all levels welcome!! The instructors are amazing and will help you perfect each isometric movement. read more

Such a damn good class! No matter if you have been here 10 times or 1,000, a class is NEVER the same. See results and feel the shake.

This is one of the best exercises I've ever done. The instructors are top notch. I highly recommend! Get ready to sweat!

Fantastic, low-impact workouts and the instructors are so nice and helpful. PLNK is my new favorite gym.

THE best workout in an aesthetically pleasing studio space. The instructors are everything, I love these girls!

I've been going almost every single day, sometimes twice a day and I still can't get enough! I leave every class feeling strong not only physically, but mentally too. It's 50 minutes where I don't have to think about anything other than tightening my core and squaring my hips. It's perfect abs I hope everyone tries it in their lifetime! read more

I cannot speak more highly of this studio and the workout. The workout makes you feel like a bada**. And this studio is one of the most welcoming and encouraging places. read more

Great strength training. Love the instructors. Appreciate the covid precautions they take. Will continue to come back. read more

Started PLNKing this summer, during the pandemic. It's been a much needed, much welcomed safe zone for my mental health, not to mention physical! An intense workout with low impact, perfect for strengthening my core and supportive muscles one year post ankle break! Safe options with single use machines, spacing, masking, extra cleaning supplies available. It's a treat to take this time for myself. read more

PLNK CWE - There's even motivation etched into the floor! - Pilates Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

This place is AMAZING - I leave sore and shaking every time. This is the first low impact workout where I have actually felt like I'm getting a full body plus cardio workout Evey time I go. The studio is modern, airy, and has great amenities for pre and post workout! Highly recommend! read more

Yay - this is my new jam for working out from my home away from home, the Sonesta Chase in the cwe! Challenging classes, knowledgeable instructors, fun vibe and of course megaformer is a killer workout. My only complaint would be if you sleep in and miss the 6 am class you are sol as the next class is not until 9 am read more

PLNK is one of the top notch Lagree Studios in the world.... seriously. We are lucky to have Brooke and her vision here in STL. I've been to Lagree Studios all over the country and in Canada. Also, she invests in education and certifications for ALL of her instructors. Best of the best would be a perfect title for this review! read more

Big Love for this place !!! It just keeps getting better with time... Always evolving with amazing instructors & gorgeous space. Fantastic location as well. The. Best! read more

Simultaneously ego crushing and endorphin rushing, PLNK is my number one stop in St Louis. The coaches are all knowledgeable and eager to spar on biomechanics and physiology after class which is a huge plus in an industry rife with pseudo-science. You're in great hands with this team. read more

PLNK is hands down the best workout I have ever done. I found muscles that I didn't even know existed and every class is a challenge. You become more accustomed to the unique names and cues, but it's always hard, which makes it such a fantastic method. There is always an opportunity to improve and progress-- you'll never be bored! read more

Michael's energy is contagious and greatly missed during the week! Make sure you book your class in advance to catch him on the weekend! Highly recommend him for beginners and veterans. His cues will keep you shaking for 50+ minutes. PLNK is guaranteed to help you grow into a better version of yourself read more

We've been addicted to PLNK since we discovered it two years ago. It's zero-impact, muscle-shaking, core-building workouts are the perfect complement to our other cardio workouts. Classes are always challenging but we leave feeling great and ready to come back for more. And their COVID precautions have been in place since they reopened in June....always distanced...always masked. read more

Great workout that's easy on my neck and shoulders. All the instructors are enthusiastic, helpful, and thoughtful. The covid safety precautions make me feel comfortable going regularly! read more
