I was super excited to try my first Pilates class on March 31, with Elise at 5:15 am! She was super nice! It was just two other girls in the class with me so I definitely enjoyed it more! There's a small parking lot right outside which I'm sure is more busy during regular business hours. The facility itself is super clean. My experience overall - it wasn't too hard and I thought it went by fast. I tried this class with my free trial for my class pass and I'll definitely be back! Definitely recommended for anyone who wants to give Pilates a try! I workout regularly and lift heavy so doing Pilates changed up the scene for me which I enjoye read more

I attended RockSalt via ClassPass- their classes are very affordable and easy to book. I would say that I enjoy the location (it's rare that South San Jose gets any new businesses) and cardio heavy nature of their classes. I would not recommend this class for a beginner due to the corporate direction that instructors do not provide any feedback on form correction or pacing. Even though I frequent Pilates classes, sometimes I find myself rushing through exercises. It'd be useful to hear instructors assist class members in their workouts. It's still a good workout and involves a lot of reformer work as well as floor work! read more

Attended a stretch class with my classpass points! I want to start off by saying Xio, the instructor was great and the studio was very clean. However I think if you're a newbie to Pilates like I am this is not the best place to start. I know they try their best to show as you go but I think it's way too fast paced for you to get the hang of it. I felt like there was way more cardio than stretching but overall I had fun, I may try another class again. read more

This is only the second studio I've been to, so I don't have a lot to compare to and not sure if it's normal or not. As some reviews mentioned, cleanliness seems to be an issue here. The cubicles to store stuff is all the way in the back, so everyone is walking through the whole studio with shoes on. I really enjoyed the pace of the class. However, I feel that the class lacked instruction/demonstration. The instructor mostly stayed in the back by the door so it was hard to see what she was doing. She also didn't show us how to do any of the modifications. Also, no corrections at all. I'm sure I was doing some moves wrong, and was visibly lost a few times, but the instructor didn't offer any help. I don't think I would be back here unless improvements are made. read more

I visited RockSalt for the first time today and was really impressed with the class structure. Our instructor, Xio, was so kind and motivating, providing a perfect balance between deep stretching and strength building. It was a total body workout that targeted muscles I didn't even know existed! The studio itself is quite aesthetic and has great ventilation and AC, which is a huge plus during a challenging session. The experience is quite convenient because there is a parking lot directly in front of the studio. You don't have to worry about a stressful parking hunt before class. However, I am docking one star because the floors and floor mats were noticeably dirty during my visit. While I definitely plan on coming back for the class, I am hoping to see a bit more cleanliness next time. read more

After trying other studios with the same workouts, I do prefer others. The studio is a little too bright for my liking, the music stereo was a bit funky, cutting in and out of the mics of the instructor and the overall cleanliness of the place was kinda gross. There was an excessive amount of hair all over my station and mat on the floor. It also felt like the machines were not probably taken care of. During the class, I feel like I didn't really get a good example of what moves i needed to be doing, the instructor was doing it in the back where it was definitely hard to see even with only one row of reformers in the class. I may have come on a wrong day but I'm hoping that the next time I come I'll have a better experience since I really wanted to like it the first time around! read more

I'm so happy this studio opened up nearby & I like going here to get a quick workout in! Plenty of parking & I like to come 10 minutes early so I can relax and not rush before my workout. Using my Classpass points, I started going here last year & I would take 6AM strength classes with Sam! She's honestly my favorite instructor here :) She has such a warm and bubbly personality! I love that she really utilizes the reformer. I don't prefer classes where we don't really use it as much and end up doing a lot of mat workouts... Sam has a great variation of workouts so I don't get bored and it leaves me feeling sore the next day ‍ Great way to start your morning with good vibes and music! She honestly put me onto a lot of good songs! The class sizes do vary on the day and I do recommend booking in advance. Sometimes it's a much smaller class or fully booked. I do prefer strength classes over sweat and stretch. I like that at the end of every class, the instructor will give us time to stretch. It feels so relaxing after! Also wanted to mention that Cassie is great as well read more

Took the class today @10:30am with the instructor Anna. It was my first time here and I selected the strength class, having no idea we would be doing weights but that was fine. There was no formal check in desk, but rather check in on the ipad towards the middle of the room. It is best to come 5 minutes early like the other review mentioned. I don't think grip socks are required because I did see some people go barefoot..... but I'd recommend socks anyways! Bathroom had no amenties like hairties, makeup wipes, deodorant spray (but would be a great touch). This isn't what I'm looking for, in terms of my goals so it will be my last time here. read more

Rachel Fox was extremely unprofessional and misleading. I was 5 min late for the class so she told me to join the next class but then upon arriving to the next class, she told me it got fully booked. I wasted 2 hours of my life. Her energy is overall off putting. Kinda glad I didnt have to be in a class with her as the instructor. read more

This was a very cool workout experience and I feel in love with the RockSalt routine. It was my first time being there and I tried the studio through class pass. The room had really good ventilation and AC, which was perfect on such a hot day. Our instructor was so welcoming and friendly, we felt really comfortable with her immediately. I loved the concept of incorporating weights and the machines. It was easy to follow the instructor and she was engaging all through class. I was really impressed and I'll definitely be back soon! read more

I loved RockSalt. I attended a class with my ClassPass membership and absolutely loved it. The interior is so clean and pretty. The bathroom was clean. The equipments are all new. Instructor was AMAZING and so sweet. Music choice was fun. read more

RockSalt - Pilates Near Me - San Jose, California

I'll start by saying I've never liked pilates so I'm probably biased, but I wanted to give it one more chance before making that verdict. I came to Rocksalt and got confirmation that pilates is not for me. The instructor whose class I attended was great in terms of energy, she's very upbeat and I appreciated that she demonstrated a lot of her workouts but I wish she helped correct form more as I don't think I saw her correct anyone's form once. I took a RockReform Strength class and found it to be very boring and underwhelming. Some of the workouts felt rushed and her counting was very uneven, I feel like I worked out the left side of my body a lot longer than my right side. According to my watch, I only burned 140 calories in 50 minutes which is a bit low for me so I would not say that was an effective workout compared to what I am used to. I will say the studio is very cute and clean though, and I enjoyed the hip hop playlist! If you enjoy reformer pilates then maybe you'll like this, but for myself I'll have to stick with heated yoga as I find those classes a lot more challenging. read more

I have been going to RockSalt since the beginning of the year. They offer some really good deals for new people, and are also available on ClassPass. It was my first time doing Pilates, and the reformer machine was a little intimidating in the beginning. But after 1-2 classes I felt very comfortable, and all of the instructors are friendly and supportive. The music is also always on point! They book the classes back to back so it's best to arrive only about 5 minutes prior. I have gotten toned and lost a lot of weight since starting RockSalt. read more

Love going here! It makes working out fun and time goes by very quickly. There are 3 classes- sweat, stretch, and strength-- Classes book up quick so plays prebook! read more

Just want to add that every instructor I have taken has been amazing! Stacie, Samantha, Katie & Toni are also fantastic. Such an addicting workout. Fun, challenging, modifications are offered and options to make it more challenging - which is so nice that there isn't judgment. I love it here! read more

A hidden gem in South San Jose! I recently went to my first Pilates class here. I've done classes at other studios but this has been by far my favorite Pilates studio. Sam was my instructor and her class was challenging but fun and she was very welcoming. I love to see Latina representation in the fitness world. I'll definitely be back to take more classes and can't wait to try new instructors. read more

Booked a private class for my "Birthday Pilates Party"! It was all of our first time at this Pilates studio and most of our first time doing Pilates. We had Giselle as our instructor and she was so amazing & friendly! She guided us through each step of what we were doing. She also asked what kind of music we would like for her to play! I would definitely go back and book a class with Giselle. (: read more

If you are looking for a Pilates class that will challenge you and make you feel immensely accomplished, I recommend you take Toni's class! In the span of the last 6 months I have taken about 12 different Pilates classes and definitely consider myself an amateur with a general idea of what to expect.. Toni, however, definitely exceeded expectations. She did not make me or anyone else feel embarrassed about modifications or breaks and verbally motivated us with words of affirmation which I thought was super sweet and helpful. Overall, the studio and my experience with Toni made me feel comfortable and excited to return again soon! read more

I absolutely adore taking classes here. By far my favorite fitness class. All the instructors are amazing, engaging and fun. And after the workout, I feel so good and accomplished read more

This was one of the most unenjoyable workouts that I've ever participated in. This is the first time that I've done a Pilates class with no experience with the reformer. When I walked in, there was no intro on the equipment or an explanation on getting "set" up. The instructor was nice, but didn't explain the moves thoroughly nor could I see her demos. Furthermore, she would move into another workout before we could get ourselves out from the last move. Not once did she check in to see what I needed help with and there were no options for modifications. For example, I cannot always put my full weight on my wrists--there should have been options to alleviate it. If you're new to Pilates or to the studio, I wouldn't come here because you will be left wondering what you're supposed to do the entirety of the workout. The studio owner or manager should check out orange theory and see how the coaches prepare new participants. They run a class with over 20-30 people at a time and always ensures that new participants aren't left behind, feels unwelcome, and checks on them throughout the workout. They always do a great job conducting demos and introducing people to the equipment. I really wanted to like this studio as I love working out, but I unfortunately will not be returning to this studio. read more

This was my first time taking a class with RockSalt and I had a blast! This place firstly is super clean and atmosphere is great. My instructors name was Sam and she was so positive and motivating. It was great to see how she knows her clients as she would encourage them by name. The class itself was 50 minutes and specifically the strength class. I was so tired but feel so good afterwards! Will be back soon!! read more

Amazing work out every time. The studio is clean and instructors are friendly and encouraging. You will sweat and feel accomplished after each class. Highly recommend! read more

Still coming here and loving it every bit. Stacie is the best! The routines and music change every class so it never gets boring. Do sweat to get the best workout! read more

This is a really clean studio! Their equipment is well maintained and the instructors are kind and lead the class well. The music brings the vibe to the class! The reformer stretch classes are for beginners or someone who wants to stretch for an hour. I'd recommend picking a different class type if you want to break a sweat and get a real workout read more

Ana Marie is a fantastic instructor! From the moment we walked in, she made everyone feel right at home by warmly welcoming us and taking the time to introduce each person. She even asked us to introduce ourselves to our neighbors, which was a nice touch (even if the person beside me wasn't quite into it). She demonstrated the poses on the machine so that we could clearly understand what should be done and encouraged us to go at our own pace without any pressure. Ana Marie's positive energy and encouragement motivated us to push through. This was hands down the best RockReform Strength class I've ever taken! You can not fail with the coaches here. read more

I LOVE THIS PLACE!! I've been looking for a new Pilates place here in San Jose and went to Stacie's strength class and it was a blast. The music and vibes are amazing and I love the reformers. Every class is different and so creative unlike a lot of other Pilates places that just recycle the same classes over and over again. I cannot say enough amazing things about this place. 1000% recommend read more

This is my new go-to pilates place! The Stretch classes really help you stretch your musles while doing lighter workouts, while the strength classes got me sweaty and feeling the burn. The instructors here are super sweet, I've been to classes with both Samantha and Stacie and they are super friendly and the best instructors! After you take one class here, you'll want to go back for more! I've taken quite a few friends to class with me and they all have lots of fun and enjoy it a lot! I book the classes through ClassPass and it's super convenient that way! read more

"Absolutely love this Pilates class! The instructors are super knowledgeable, always encouraging, and keeps the energy high. Every session is fun, challenging, and leaves me feeling amazing. Highly recommend!" read more

I love taking classes here. The instructors are very helpful and attentive. Very clean and spacious studio.

I've gone to a lot of other pilates places and I would have to say this is my least favorite. It's definitely a different kind of workout, wasn't bad but didn't feel like I really got a good workout in. read more

I've been to a couple of classes here and I think I can say I've attended at least 1 class with every instructor. The instructors here are super friendly and welcoming. I love how each class I've attended it's something different. There's days where we focused on upper body and minimal legs and vice versa. There are other days where the workout isn't as intense as another. I personally like that. If you're going to Pilates multiple times in a week, it's nice that there's a variety of workouts. The music is great as well. read more

Such a fun class with Stacy! She was super encouraging and the workout definitely gives you a burn you'll feel the next morning :)

I finally did it! I purchased classes to this new location and I'm so happy I did. Stacie off the back from the moment I walked in till I walked out of RockSalt was the sweetest and most welcoming instructor I've ever met. The class itself will leave you feeling like spaghetti noodles but the good kind lol I look forward to my other classes and bonus that this location is across the street from I live. read more

I tried rock salt and although it was an 'okay' workout, I would never come again because they charge an arm and a leg for classes...$715 for a 20 pack ($36 per class). FOR WHAT?!? I could understand that price point for an unlimited package or at best a 30 class pack. That doesn't even cover 5 days a week for a full month. I'm an avid Pilates person and I plan to go almost every single day to a class but I would never spend $715 on a 20 pack for a mediocre Pilates class. They have lost their minds. read more

I have done a couple of Sam's strength and stretch pilates classes and they are AMAZING! Her classes have helped me feel stronger and has relieved my knee and back pain that I have struggled with for a long time. Sam makes sure to demonstrate and explain the exercises very well which helps a lot and I never felt lost during her classes. She is also very knowledgeable with the exercises she is teaching and always makes sure we are doing them with the best possible form. Overall, I was really impressed with RockSalt and will definitely be coming back for more of Sam's classes! read more
