Our instructor executed the class flawlessly, was audible the whole class, engaged with us throughout the class, and she seemed to be enjoying herself the whole time too! If you're looking for a workout that doesn't feel like a workout, this is it! I came with a friend and would love to bring other friends too! The building is old but the space feels great.

The workout was challenging for a beginner, but not impossible. I was able to do about 70% of the exercises (I had spine surgery and don't have full mobility). Plus, all the equipment is provided to you! The biggest con was the overall energy of the class. The music was very poppy and loud, which I didn't love. The instructor also wore a microphone headset, which was VERY hard to hear at times over the music. For a beginner, it was difficult to follow along at times. The class I took was more "peppy" (think: "and lift! and lift!" cues), which isn't exactly my jam. I would have probably tried another class here, but the receptionist told me that this location is unfortunately closing soon.

It's a little hard to find, but look for signs to the right of the entrance to Trident bookstore and go up the steps to the second floor. Once you're there the space feels nice and welcoming. There are lockers and changing booths (with a curtain cover), and bathrooms are located in a common area in the hallway just outside the studio. Not sure if there's a place to fill a water bottle, but I think they have some for sale.

Barre's riddle should be: What weighs more: A ton of bricks or a ton of feathers? Ans: they weigh the same Here are the general points: I've never been more afraid of stairs in my life. My glutes are shelfing. The smallest muscles shake. I'm not saying that I'd rather be waterboarded, but honestly these 50min classes are a journey. I can see why they say in 8-10 classes you can see results. I highly recommend going here.

Petty, inflexible, and honestly embarrassing behavior from a studio that isn't even a high end studio. It's not discipline, it's a desperate power trip. They'd rather shut the door in a paying client's face than use basic judgment. The instructor was Emma Cammer so not sure if she's to blame or the studio itself

I've been taking classes at Boston Body Pilates in the Waterfront for about six weeks now, and my…read moreexperience has been overwhelmingly positive--especially thanks to Valencia, one of their instructors. She's a Black woman, and having that representation in a Pilates space genuinely matters to me. Starting where I started and seeing how far I've already come with her support has meant a lot. She remembers my name, makes me feel included rather than out of place, and gives hands-on guidance that actually helps me understand and correct my technique. It's the kind of attention that makes you want to keep showing up. From my very first day, I've also felt welcomed by Courtney, who greeted me when I walked in, and by Mallory, who's been responsive and kind over email. There's a sense of attentiveness throughout the studio that I really appreciate--especially with all the current conversations happening around inclusivity in Pilates spaces. Now, for the real talk: Communication They do say on their website that email is the best way to reach them, and they mean it. Calling is... hit or miss. I've called before and gotten no answer, and I've talked to other people who've had the same experience. So if you're looking for a quick phone response, good luck--you're better off emailing. Schedule & Space They offer classes seven days a week, with options in the morning, afternoon, and evening, which makes it easy to fit into any schedule. I'm also looking forward to exploring more of the studio, because they have different rooms with different machines and setups. Parking It's the Northend--so yes, parking is rough. You're likely paying $28+ unless you luck out with street parking. Keep that in mind when planning your trip. Location They're a bit tucked away. If you're taking a Lyft or driving, note that you can't just pull up right in front. They're located on the other side of Joe's (the restaurant). Once you figure it out, it's easy, but the first time can feel like a scavenger hunt. Other Note From time to time there's a dog in the studio, but I've never had it roaming around during class. Just something to know if you're allergic or prefer pet-free spaces. Overall, I've felt supported, included, and challenged in all the right ways. If you're considering trying Pilates--especially if you value representation, community, and instructors who actually pay attention--Boston Body Pilates Waterfront is worth checking out.

SCAM - DO NOT GO HERE !!!!…read more I've always been involved in fitness classes so I thought that coming here would be similar to every other experience I've had. WRONG. While I've done other classes, I've never tried barre before so I wanted to give it a shot with their free intro class to see if I would like it. The class was alright, but the manager of the studio along with 3 other employees all cornered me at the end of the class asking when I would start and continuously asking what my schedule is like. It was very uncomfortable and honestly they make it hard to even think about the classes clearly when they outnumber you like that. They told me that the second I leave the studio, there will be a $60 fee if I try to sign up for classes online and that giving a "free class" where you don't have to pay this ridiculous fee if you sign up right there is actually their "gift" to you. At the time, I agree to try a 4 class pack because I figured that the class was fine enough and worst case scenario, if I don't like it at the end of the 4 classes I don't have to continue. They rush in putting this payment through and ask for a code that is sent to your phone number. They also tell me that there is a 30 day cancellation policy, which is annoying in itself but that is the least of my concerns. What they DON'T tell you is that this code is meant for a contract that they sign for you and then don't tell you any terms of this "agreement." In this contract, they signed my name for me for a 3 month initial term that I did not ask for. After finding out their deceitful methods, I email them immediately to ask for a cancellation of this "membership" that I did not sign up for and ask for a refund as I will not be taking any of the classes anymore. They continuously fight me on it saying that I verbally agreed to it at a specific date and time and refuse to give me my money back with no real reasoning. I tried to just talk to them and simply cancel the classes because I don't support businesses that try to trick their clients, but of course they don't actually care.
