An amazing find! I just moved to Vintage Park, and I was panicked when I checked yelp and saw ZERO…read morePure Barre studios close to me (I'm an addict). Then I found this gem, which just wasn't on yelp yet! I had my first class here today with Elizabeth and it was excellent! For those of you who haven't experienced Barre, it is low-impact and focuses on small isometric movements to tone all those hard-to-engage muscles using ballet-inspired but easy moves. I'm the opposite of graceful but Pure Barre has given me better body awareness and flexibility at my own pace. Elizabeth's instruction was great, providing detailed description of the next movement without stopping the flow, and going around making small adjustments to everyone without calling anyone out for an off position. She remembered everyone's name, and let you know you were doing a good job when she saw you working hard or giving your all (the goal is to "shake", because the muscle is getting tired it wobbles or shakes a little). I've seen pure Barre change my body from doughy and shapeless to lean and toned, so I'm in love with it. It elongates, tones, and slenderizes you all over. I even noticed an instructor from a nearby fitness center was in the class. This location has great music, very friendly staff, and is super clean! I love the look of the studio, with a bit more wood accents than most, it looks (and is) very upscale! It's also in the PERFECT location for those in the Vintage Park/Champion Forest area. Just a hop and skip from H-E-B shopping center, right by Dunkin Donuts in a plaza. Walking Distance from those who live in any of the "San" apartment complexes. I'm definitely going to be a regular here!

Before we get into this review:…read more I began pole a while back, but left it due to my dad having some continued health issues and balancing work, hospital stays, and pole just wasn't going to happen. I started at a location in Houston that is part of a major chain/franchise (Not Axis). The search for a perfect studio is hard. You have your own personal goals you are working toward, and you are trying to find a place that not only meets that but also provides a comfortable environment. There are SO MANY studios in Houston, btw. I was searching FOREVER. Some focus more on the sexy side of pole, lots incorporate floor work, lapdancing, chair work. Most of those places just weren't for me. Everyone is different. I have always been attracted to aerial arts (and contortion, but that's a different story). Pole for me was always beautiful and artistic, like vertical ballet. The sexy stuff is awesome, just not for me personally. So I was on this ETERNAL hunt for a studio that focused on fitness and artistry. And I found Axis. But it took me another year or so to take the dive. D: (I know.) I had a car incident and was feeling pretty down in the dumps. Usually, when a depressing event happens in my life, I turn to fitness as a way to mend my heart. So I hopped on their mind body page and went for it. It's not close by any means to me lol. I had bought a sampler pass and decided along with pole, to try other apparatus. At one point I spent 4h on a Friday taking classes. #noregrets I learned my body understands lyra way easier than it does pole, the original apparatus I had started on way before. (I am not so great with left/right coordination when it comes to learning.) I also learned silks aren't necessarily my thing, and I am fairly okay with that. Or at least I should build up more upper body before approaching silks again. Cube was very interesting. I suggest bringing tights for learning cube, silks, or lyra. BC I learned the hard way lololol. Some apparatus are wrapped. Only lyra is wrapped, and a smaller cube is wrapped. Straps were rumoured to be added to the studio. Parking is easy enough. You reserve via mind body. Classes are small. Seriously. You can have individual attention if you are just not getting something. Flexibility classes are great. Before stretches begin, let instructors know if you had or have an injury or ongoing pain so modifications can be made for you. Every class will start with led group stretching. Bring your own yoga mat if you feel more comfortable using your own. I have a particularly cushy one. They have yoga blocks at the studio. Sometimes they have special events where teachers and students will have a showcase. Sometimes Cirque/Aerial Industry professionals will come in and offer workshops (you can sign up via mind body). I haven't been back due to it just not being in my budget right now. I do independent contractor work, versus having a steady FT situation. If money weren't an issue, I'd be living here on Fridays. Most of the classes I am interested in happen on Fridays and my Instructor is a funny, quirky, very talented lass. The pace is a bit quick, but even as a super newb with issues with left/right coordination, I got a hang of things. It's a great studio to be exposed to multiple apparatus. Lots of Pole studios just have pole or don't offer other aerial apparatus. If you find an aerial/cirque studio, likely they don't have pole. I like how I am able to explore pole, cube, lyra, silks, AND there's a dedicated flexibility class. PPS There are kids cirque classes offered via Fenix, who also uses the same space. Definitely worth checking out!

Edit: the owner Rachel is amazing, she is handling everything properly and if this teacher steps…read moredown from teaching the children, this is an excellent aerial school to send your child to. Today my daughter (who is 7) called me having a panic attack after leaving aerial arts early. I work during the week so her grandmother brings her. While in class today, the kids were running to get on slings and my daughter got to a sling before another little girl, who then started crying. The red headed teacher (I can never remember her name), yelled at the little girl to not cry and go sit with her grandmother if she was going to keep crying. Awful, that should've never happened, but then my daughter went to go console the girl because she has a huge heart and she's been raised to care about others. At this point the teacher BELLOWS at my daughter "(name) YOU AREN'T HELPING, GO BACK TO YOUR SPOT". My daughter has pretty severe ADHD (which aerial arts was helping with) and anxiety from issues that happened with a very mean teacher in kindergarten. When she was yelled at, my daughter went and hid behind the sling and started tearing up. My mom then asked if she wanted to go home and she said yes. After she put her in the car with her great grandmother my mom went back in to speak to the teacher. My mom walked onto the floor and said "maam" to get her attention. She continued with "you do not have the right to speak to any child like that. The worst thing you can do as a teacher is yell at a child. That was uncalled for." Do which the teacher replied "yeah, well she's ALOT" (speaking about my daughter, who we have spoken a lot to this particular teacher about her ADHD issues and my daughter had been doing so much better staying on task and really trying to learn) and my mom said "she's a lot? Well so what that. Completely out of line" and left. After my daughter called me while I was working, HYPERVENTILATING, and crying trying to tell me what happened. I am taking my daughter out of axis. I am SO happy I found an aerial arts school closer to where we live that is beginning children's classes. I was going to leave her in axis until those classes started but I refuse to subject my child to a teacher who shouldn't even be around children. It's very apparent she has no control over her temper and she has an ego the size of a yacht. I had seen glimpses of this lack of emotional control from her in the past when I was bringing her, but it wasn't to this extent so I just assumed she was having a rough day. But to let your temper get to that level while teaching small children is DISGUSTING. She should be pulled from the position immediately. Please, don't send your children here. There are two other FANTASTIC aerial arts schools in the woodlands and Conroe. She can not go on being allowed to teach children. If you care about your child's emotional well-being, you won't bring them here.

Small gym/studio located in a small business park. Manuela has electronic treadmill, cardio stair stepper, a recumbent cycle and a speed cycle for use, as well as a full set of dumbbells, bars, plate weights and weight machines. She also has 6 Pilate Reformer machines. The week is broken out to Pilates day or Weights/personal trainer day. If it's a Pilates day, then it's Pilates classes all day long. Same goes for weights/trainer days. On Pilates day, you are in there with up to 5 other people plus Manuela, or less. On weights/trainer days it's either, you and Manuela, or you and up to two other people and Manuela. Bottom line - small classes with personal attention. Manuela is fun, dedicated, and here to get you feeling better about yourself. I have done the Pilates Reformer classes and the personal weight training with her for now about 2 years. Last season I even had her customize some of the training to help me with some of the Enduro Mountain Bike racing I needed. We focused on a lot of balance and upper body. The results are great and I'm happy with all my progression. Note: there is no membership fee. It's pay per class - what you DO and with how many people influences the price, Manuela will explain. And...there is ZERO pressure, and very little of, supplements or powders that you "NEED" to buy. She has some ADVO Care, but the focus here is the exercise. If you need nutrition, Manuela can do that, just talk with her and she'll set you up. Call her to book your free assessment for personal training or Pilates Reformer classes. I am glad I did. Highly recommended. This is a jewel of a gym in the Near Northwest area with an outstanding trainer.

Jolie and the front desk will get to know you and it generally there to ensure you have a great day. She works out and will come say hi to you on the floor.

THREE! What are the cleaners doing? Apparently nothing. Even after I pointed it out. -roughly spoken to by a guy who takes care of the area (I assumed) by the indoor lap pool. I was pregnant and hurting and needed my nightly stretch in the pool which is the main reason I paid to go there and I can't use the hot tub while pregnant. Arrived at the same time as usual. There was another person swimming but the man present didn't like women or I don't know but he told me "it's closed" and didn't give me an explanation. I question and shared how I REALLY need to stretch I'm in pain and it's supposed to be open another 40 minutes on schedule and there is clearly another person swimming in front of us, so how can it be closed? He just yelled at me and still didn't tell me why. I have no idea who or why he was there. Cane other days when pool was support he open and they had signs saying closed" when it was supposed to be open. They don't really have a good amount of machines other than tons of treadmills compared to LA fitness. And as others mentioned they stay broken a long time. But I need to work my back and don't use free weights. The hot sauna was broken for MONTHS! And was so unclean inside. I couldn't believe I had been sitting in there. But I'm sure it was due to the lady exfoliating herself and no one cleaning it! It makes me want to vomit thinking of it. I wanted a water yoga class but they didn't have evening classes for me. Only during the day when I couldn't go. For a large expensive place it makes no sense they could not hire for evening classes. Kids area-while I don't trust anyone to watch my kids personally, my best friend had a terrible experience there. Other kids would bully her kids and staff didn't seem to care. She could only take her kids a set limited time during the day so too bad if you can't make that block of time despite the fact you pay twice as much to bring kids you can literally only go when they say you can because pools and splash pads for kids aren't open or are closed constantly. The last straw was her son was arguing with his sibling as siblings do, but it was handled terribly. Instead of going to get her if there was indeed a problem , the staff dragged him down the hallway and when he thought he was out of sight, she saw him throw him on the ground. She happened to have come down for pick up at the time and was following them wondering why he had her son down a secluded hallway alone, He didn't apologize or anything. Terrible way of handling a child.
