Free street parking on both side of the street every day, which is super convenient. The staff here are genuinely friendly and personable, and the space is clean and well kept with two bathrooms available. A code is required to enter the studio. I really enjoyed my workout and would definitely be back if I'm ever in the area again. read more

Olde Town Alexandria is one of three locations I frequent. Rachel is a great community manager and coach. They have some of the friendliest coaches and staff. They have all of the core things every studio has including lockers, bathrooms, toiletries, etc. There's free street parking but also a garage if street parking isn't your thing, connected to the same building that's very convenient. read more

I got the opportunity to complete my first class at the Alexandria location and it was amazing. We had a guest instructor today for the total body class and let me just say ... I am a former body builder and I do strength training 4-5 times a week - this was another level of muscle failure! 10/10 recommend. I told the instructor that it was my first time and she was with me every step of the way. The facility had lots of parking on the street and it was super clean. read more

Came in to complete my Classpass trial as this place was 15 credits (Jan 2024). For here you'd find street parking, and if you go outside of 4-7pm M-F, parking is free. Note that they give you a passcode upon signing up for a class. The number pad is to the left of the entrance. When I walked in no one was at the front to greet me which I thought was unusual for studios. I found my way around to the lockers and bathroom before class, and ultimately found myself an open reformer in the main room. We had a sub Derika that was brand new as a teacher, but class was still equally challenging. It was a 7:30pm class so I appreciated her pacing and volume of music -- not too fast and not too loud. Plus her cueing was very clear and she encourages you with hands on assists and calling out your name. I really appreciated her class. Upon walking out, I noticed that they offered complimentary lifesaver mints, hairties for class, earplugs (didn't need them thankfully!) and liquid IV (yuzu pineapple). They also had hand sanitizer and tissues for personal use as well. There are towels that you can buy for $8.00 if you know you sweat a lot during class. The only critical comment I'll make is that it smelled like sweat and water mold upon walking in. As a neurodivergent with heightened sense of smell, this wasn't appreciated, but I'm glad the studio itself was free of this smell or else I would've left. This is where I deducted my star. Nonetheless, I'm glad I got to experience solidcore through classpass. I won't be renewing my classpass at this time, but in the future if I do, I will continue to come to solidcore! read more

Street parking. Code to enter. Easier to open with the app. Clean inside. Seems like a secure building. I definitely enjoyed my workout. It is very intimidating but I can see how a person can yield results quickly read more

I have been a member of Old Town solidcore location for a year now and i love it! The coaches are so personable - I haven't attended a class I've disliked. Even after going to 50+ classes I still feel challenged & that i'm getting a good workout in. The studio used to be closer to Braddock Metro, but the new location has a better parking situation & the studio layout is less congested when waiting for class to start. Overall a great experience!! read more

Literally the most challenging workout I've ever done. This location is ALWAYS busy in my experience so it's a bit tough to get in for classes but the instructors are awesome. I always feel challenged doing Solidcore and even though I've taken a lot of classes, I haven't really plateaued and still feel like I'm getting a good workout in. read more

I had previously tried out a lagree class in California after going to pilates for a while thinking it would be cake. It was not. After I moved to Alexandria, I decided I would try out solidcore and it did not disappoint. The workouts are absolute torture, but in a good way. I'm getting my butt kicked for 50 minutes and questioning my life decisions, but I leave feeling sore and amazing. I will definitely continue taking classes here. Fortunately, I have never had a hard time with booking classes and the instructors have all been awesome and good with making corrections to help me. read more

If you're looking to shake up your exercise routine, give solidcore a try! I tried the two week unlimited client special, but don't think you'll be able to take a class everyday for two weeks to make the price worth it - your body will most definitely be sore and in need of rest. You're on something similar to a pilates reformer machine for 50 minutes using your own body weight and the resistance of the springs on the machine for the duration of the workout. The lights dim with just the standard solidcore blue light on with music pumping and an instructor speaking to you on a headset. Some people find this overwhelming, but I actually liked it. It helped me to focus on my workout even more when I felt like other people weren't watching me and I needed to pay attention to the instructors' cues on what to do next. It is pricey, but it helps that you don't need to purchase anything additional - not even sneakers. The other thing I really really appreciate about this location is the diversity. I've seen men, older folks, people of color, people of different body types, etc. take the classes. It's still mostly skinny White females in lululemon's, but seeing diverse instructors and students made me feel more welcomed, especially as I struggled these last two weeks as a newbie. If it's your first time trying solidcore, I highly recommend Monica! She explained everything so well and helped change my resistance springs for my first two classes. Niki is also great at making sure your form is good so that you don't injure yourself. Honestly, I feel like you can't go wrong with an instructor here. It's street parking in this area but I never had trouble finding parking here. Just read the signs carefully on street cleaning days! read more

I've gone to the Old Town and Courthouse studios for a little under 10 visits. The trainers all have slightly different approaches but the overall same vibe. None of the trainers go full blown bootcamp sergeant. They do yell, a lot, but more along the lines of yelling heartfelt encouragement. Its oddly motivating. They push you to work harder, without making it a competition between attendees.The trainers keep track of the attendees, will often call out your name and give your encouragement throughout the workout (even if their first time meeting you), and are actively engaged in paying attention to everyone's form and fitness level. All of the trainers I've had so far make it appear effortless, which leads me to believe it took a lot of classes and training to get to be a coach. The machine (svetlana) is awkward to say the least.The more you attend the less foreign it seems. Its insane how many different variations the trainers are able to come up with using for this oddly versatile machine. Body position is very important. You may be wrong for several classes, but you eventually pick it up.The one downside to using the machine is that they have a color coded cable/weight system. There is no real way to know the actual weight for each cable. The coaches will let you know which cables to use ("one white and one grey for anyone with less than 10 classes") but not knowing the actually weight is odd. The doors have keycodes that are texted to you in advance. There isn't really a consistent method of storing personal belongings. One of the studios has a combo locker, but the others tend to have bench drawer combos with no lock. Its mostly on the honor system, while I've never had any issues with finding my personal items, the honor system usually fails eventually. They don't really have a receptionist stationed. Obtaining merch, and water is also on the honor system.You sign up on a notepad if you grab a water or a shirt and within a set time, they will charge you for the item. The workouts are intense. You need to know yourself, but also be willing to push your limits. Throughout my first few workouts I may have said "Oh my god he/she is trying to kill me" maybe half a dozen times. Towards my 8th or 10th session I'm down to saying it only once or twice a workout. That shows improvement. All the class members are cool. Everyone is trying their best, and everyone is oddly very good at somethings and not so good at others. But you wind up silently (or though intense breathing) cheering your neighbors on, because they are in this right along with you. All in all, Solidcore is worth an introductory class pack if you are in the mood for the gym but looking to spice it up. read more

Unlike many of the reviewers here, I do not "enjoy" SolidCore. I do, however, enjoy the results. Who knew such small movements could hurt so good?! But in all seriousness, it is a heck of a workout, I can usually find street parking at this location, and the cheaper "community" classes by instructors in training are pretty good. 4 stars for the incredibly price otherwise - too much for me to do it regularly. I've also stopped going as the pandemic has gotten really bad again - and wish they'd get some more intense wipes like they have at Orange Theory and some other gyms. The ones they have aren't enough to really wet down the equipment which is what is required to kill the virus, and you're heavily in contact with the machines during a class like this...so that would be my main suggestion to them. I'll be back when things are a little less rough, however. read more

You will need to obtain a code to get in the studio so make sure you have that before class. The Reformer machines are old and some lockers don't lock. The instructors are ok, I was definitely confused during the first class, even having done reformer Pilates before, then you start kinda picking up on what they're saying. The music gets so loud that the instructor's voice gets muffled. Overall, I'm not a fan of this location and would suggest going to a newer facility. read more

Ok. I am 50 years old, have a bunch of injuries from 18 years of women's rugby, and returned to solidcore after a 4 year haitus and gaining 30 lbs during the pandemic. I was really scared about returning. Nonetheless, after fumbling through two classes with Jake, I have to say this club is super supportive for beginners. The instructor is exactly the right mix of supportive and letting you figure it out, while still ensuring to keep the intensity level up for his more advanced students. So, does it work? Four years ago, I did solidcore consistently for 8 months and saw a total transformation, including my lower tummy pouch disappearing. At first, it was very difficult because my existing workout strategy focused on strength and did not call for a great deal of balance and endurance. And, even after 8 months, there were moves I skipped due to rugby injuries. But, I stuck with it and was consistent, and, yes, I saw results. read more

I normally bounce between Mosaic and the Old Town location. Parking is easy at both locations. This is the worst and best workout I've tried. Worst because I know it's 50 minutes of no nonsense, intense plank crunch or oblique extensions. Best because the results are incredible!!! After one month I lost an inch off my waist!!! I'm hooked!!! I hope a studio opens in Kingstowne. read more

This place is trash. Drove 40+ mins in traffic to get to class and they wouldn't let me participate because I was 3 mins late. Waste of time coming out here and disappointed with how I was treated in an empty class with plenty of space and empty machines. Never again. read more

I've been teaching fitness and trained in multiple boutique studios - what you can expect - to be locked out if you arrive one minute late and lose your money. Worst customer service and follow up because they don't answer their phone. I suppose if you are a regular but not if you are traveling or a one off paying client. read more

The hardest, most challenging 50 minutes of my life, exercise-wise. After finding out that this [solidcore] was finally on ClassPass, I booked my first class and I've been going back weekly. I'm not going to sugarcoat it - [solidcore] is not an easy workout. Your entire body aches, sweats, and shakes throughout and after class. But the instructors are so motivating and your mind wants to go further, so you push yourself. And even if you go to the same instructor week after week, the moves per session vary. Thus while there is routine (most moves are built upon planks, squats, or lunges), there is also tons of variation every class which is what I personally prefer. It never, ever gets boring here. I call [solidcore] pilates on steroids. You work on these megaformer machines called [sweatlana], and your movements are slow and controlled. Trying to control yourself to slow down is probably the hardest part about [solidcore], but this is the way to ensure a toned, low-impact workout. Classes are small with a maximum of 14 machines so it is akin to having a personal trainer go through a tailored sequence of moves that are most effective for you. I'm just on the beginner workouts right now, and I've taken classes with both Abby and Ivana. They are both fantastic and highly recommended. The classes are a bit pricey, but they do have a great introductory offer for new clients. Parking here is a breeze; there's both street parking and free garage parking. The facility is also fairly new. If it's good enough for Michelle Obama, it's good enough for you. Come join the [solidcore] club! read more

Hardest damn workout ever! I say this as it is hard for both body and mind. There are times where my body wants to speed up the reps...there are times my mind tells me to "stop" and all of the time, the instructors encourage you to keep on going. The exercises are "slow burners" in that the reps are done slowly with attention to form. All exercises are done on a megaformer (imagine a reformer on steroids). There are a few exercises I cannot to the "full expression" and have come to learn the modifications (hey, we all have to start somewhere). The instructors do a great job of timing and pairing exercises to the music. The equipment is new and maintained (although a couple of sleds have "less cushion" in the holes and if you get your knee in there just right it will smart). I prefer the Alexandria over the Arlington location for the ease of parking. There is plenty of on-street parking in Alexandria, whereas in Arlington, I usually end up parking in the Ballston Mall garage. I may be biased, but since I'm from Minnesota, I feel a special connection to Solidcore (locations in DC Area and Minnesota). read more

[solidcore] - [ Honest Humor ] - Pilates Near Me - Alexandria, Virginia

OBSESSED with Alex S. Her sequencing, her energy, her no BS and her music. Just wish she taught more 6AMs :)

I've been coming to [solidcore] for 6 months now and I can honestly say I've never been to a workout class more effective than this. When I leave, my whole body shakes and sweats, but I know I'm building some badass muscles and burning off tons of excess calories! I even brought my sister, who was a total athlete in college, to a beginner class with me and she was drenched by the end but still wanted to come back next time she's in town. My most noticeable accomplishment since starting [solidcore] is I can quickly dash up the 6+ flights of stairs at my work's parking garage without making a scene of huffing and puffing. Incredible! Even my friends have seen how strong I've gotten! All the coaches are great and know what they're doing. But I cannot write this review without mentioning Coach May's classes, which are amazing and key to my success at [solidcore]! She is the reason I've kept going, done that extra rep, when I'm struggling most. She's aware of everyone in the room, even in a large class with people at different levels of strength, and knows exactly when to ask for more or give you a special shoutout for taking that extra challenge for yourself. Most importantly, Coach May might be the friendliest person on the planet and I love how she makes everyone who walks into the studio feel welcome, which is so refreshing compared to other fitness studios I've been to! If you're serious about getting fit and need the motivation of a coach to help push yourself, get your [ass] to [solidcore]. read more

I really like [solidcore] - it's an awesome workout, and there have been some classes that have caused me to be sore for the next 3-4 days. I do have some qualms with some coaches (one or two just aren't very friendly at all), but I've found that if I don't love a coach, I just don't go back to their class. I've tried a bunch of the coaches at the Alexandria location now - and I would say my favorites are Alex K. (so motivating!), Alli H., Pilar V., and Julie L. There have been a few that aren't as good about correcting movements or modifying, or they haven't been especially clear with their directions and won't correct (don't know how to?) correct moves or engage with clients. At that point, I wonder what is even the point of having a guided coaching in the first place. Also, it makes the workout less effective and more likely to lead to injury. I'd prefer not to call out specific coaches, because I think this is something all of the coaches should focus on. Some other notes: - Sometimes the music can be too loud and it can be hard to hear instructors. I find it difficult to hear some of the instructors, and frankly I don't even hear the music because I'm trying to focus on my movements. - My suggestion would be to take a beginner class or two and then jump right into the all-levels classes. I found that I took too many beginner classes, and about 5-10 minutes of the class can be explaining the machine. At some point, you don't need that instruction anymore, so you can just tell a coach that you're newer and they will help you to make modifications if necessary. - This location is close to the Braddock station and there is free (90 minute) parking in the lot on Henry. There's also street parking. - You will wonder why you came to class, but it is so rewarding when you finally are done and you high-five your neighbor! read more

As I am TRYING to type my hands, arms, entire body is shaking so this will take some time hahaha but this review is worth the post. Took my first class today ($19 for new clients) with Alex and she kicked my ass in a good way. I have never felt anything like this during and after a workout. Even though I was extremely rusty in this class, it only encouraged me to push harder, and although my knee held me back some (old accident) Alex was very understanding when I needed to slow it down BUT still motivated me to push through (granted she didn't know at the time about my knee) but I am so glad I listened to her because I surprised myself with how mentally motivated I continued to push through without hurting myself. Just shows what your mind can do with your body, like Alex said "Remember, you came to this class to get stronger, you can do this, just a little longer". Loved her class, such a great instructor! I am hoping to continue taking her Monday classes. The machines are something to get used to but your instructor will teach you before and even during how to use the machines, so don't fret, just let them know its your first time. They provide towels so no need to bring yours, unless you want to. They have small lockers where you can leave your items if you don't want to bring it into the room. Just bring water and your enthusiasm to make that change you've been wanting all this time. Because after just one class, I can tell remaining consistent with these classes will DEFINITELY bring me the results I want, but its all still up to me. I know it could seem intimidating knowing many of the clients have taken several classes and probably advanced but the clients that were in my class told me its their 5th/6th time there and they love it. They were super encouraging to me when I wanted to hold back, so on that note everyone was over all great and helpful for my first class, extremely welcoming. Kayla (manager) informed me that they have a student discount as well, so for all those students looking for a transformation but don't have the funds, you should check that out. Granted its still pricey but I think it is up to you if you really want this change. Personally after just ONE class, Solidcore is definitely worth the price. Can't wait for my next class! read more

I participate in several exercise classes per week and this one is the hardest by far. It is awesome to challenge myself so much. I woke all my wiggly bits that need it and leave shaking from the slow, exhausting movements. It's exciting to see my muscles taking shape. read more

I am obsessed with this workout and my fave instructor is Kara! I have back problems and strengthening my core (back, butt, abs) has changed my life. No more pain! Kara is so upbeat and encouraging. She makes me feel comfortable and like I'm crushing this hard workout. She's so personable and her routines have the perfect balance of target areas. She rocks! read more

Overview: you will hate every second of this, but you will feel sooo good after. More details: I had my first class with Ali H. who was very sweet, informative and had great energy. My background in fitness has evolved over the years as the trends have changed (long distance running/cardio bunny to weight training/body building and now somewhere in the middle) because my fiancé is a personal trainer so the gym has been a large part of our lives. That being said, I was so sore 24 hours after the class. I have no idea what I've been doing in the gym all these years but apparently it's been nothing! The studio is very aesthetically pleasing regardless of the torture machines you'll be using. As a beginner that went to an all levels class, it can be overwhelming but nothing you can't figure out. I learn best by watching so being situated between two women who were experienced in the solidcore workout really helped (the instructor will help you too!). While it's expensive, I personally can rationalize $$ spent on fitness and feeling good about yourself rather than a large pizza. So I will be back. I should also note a positive personal experience I had. The terms and conditions about canceling or rescheduling classes seemed intimidating and I had an unfortunate situation in which I lost a loved one on the day I was scheduled to go to a class the other day. I couldn't cancel without needing to pay a fee and eating a class I wouldn't be able to go to, and was feeling pretty upset all things considered. I emailed them not expecting a way around it, but the manager, Kayla, was able to credit my account a class in lieu of my situation which I was VERY thankful. You're investing a lot of money in this for the workout AND the experience but life happens so I'm happy to report they may be able to accommodate others on a case by case basis. read more

Believe the hype - this is the best workout class! All the instructors are outgoing and friendly, but they will push you until you break. After I started grad school at night in addition to working full-time, my fitness level deteriorated and I knew I needed to re-commit to a tough workout that supported my busy schedule, since I wasn't holding myself accountable to go to the gym. I was deciding between personal training and boutique fitness classes - ultimately deciding on solidcore and I have never looked back. It's pricey, but they offer discounts throughout the year and have challenges where you complete a certain number of classes in a month and receive a discount. The class is great for people looking to complement their current fitness routine or creating one solely around solidcore. I'm based in McLean for work, so I've been to both the Old Town and McLean locations. Both are equally as great in terms of facilities and instructors. I prefer the Old Town location because it is closer to home, there is an ample amount of on-street parking, and the 5:30am weekday classes are perfect for my schedule, which is a rare timeslot to come by at other DC/MD/VA locations. I will continue giving my pennies to solidcore! read more

The moment I walked in I was welcomed with a warm and friendly hello and conversation. This establishment is not clique(ish) like other speciality workouts (think some Barre establishments). My girlfriend and I are newbies and we were enthusiastically welcomed. While we were both intimidated by a new workout- we were excited! The class was incredibly challenging despite my and my girlfriends athleticism. Ivana was ah-maaaaa-ziiiing and so informative, kind, sweet and encouraging - leading us by example and taking the time to make certain our form was correct and she helped us with modifications when necessary. Post workout, Ivana came to talk to us to ask how we enjoyed our first class. She gave us additional information on form, positions, etc. and told us what to expect and that while we may get better it doesn't get easier. We left feeling enthused and exhausted. This was a perfect new workout to break up the monotony of my running schedule. Thank you Solidcore for not being pretentious. Thank you for being friendly and inviting! We are coming back!!! read more

Tried [solidcore] for the first time last week. I was hesitant at first because I'm not a big fan of group classes. But everyone was extremely friendly and helpful--from the instructor (Alex) to the veterans of the class! Best work out I've ever had! Can't wait to try it out again! read more

This place is a great way to kick-your-butt to the absolute max. The staff is super friendly and I always leave this studio feeling accomplished. Free parking nearby which is a super plus. Some of the machines are a little outdated compared to other newer locations but the staff at this location is by far the most friendly. One of my favorite things about this studio / solidcore in general is that they don't really pressure you as much as other places in the area (cough cough OTF or purebarre, etc) to get these crazy memberships, etc. In the long run I burned out of the others. This is the first workout I've stuck to going at least once a week. Months I've gone 2-3 I really started to see great results. Try it out and get addicted -- I love how much stronger I'm feeling after getting so into this workout. Your mind and body will thank you. Your bank account.. not so much! read more

So disappointed in the Old Town, Alexandria location. I've been to Solidcore a few times and I've never had such a rude instructor before. I understand if you had to be there 15 mins early but maybe you should let your receptionists know that as well so I didn't have to be kicked out of class in front of everyone. We live in the DC area with heavy traffic during this time and I don't understand how you're going to have to kick out people who are there on time. I'm not even new to solidcore and didn't need a demo but the instructor didn't even ask she just kicked me out in front of everyone. This location will definitely not get any of my business back or any references. read more

Hands down THE best work out ever. You'll leave drenched in sweat with your muscles shaking like a leaf, but you will feel like a boss. I've taken over 100 classes at solidcore, and let me tell you - it's impossible to plateau. I am challenged to my limits every single class, and the coaches are fantastic at holding you accountable. I normally go to the Mosaic studio, but after moving I decided to give this location a try. The Old Towne solidcore is located right next to the Sugar Shack (cruel), and has pretty plentiful street parking. There's also a garage that offers 2 hours of free parking, but I wasn't able to use it today since I took a 5:30am class. I believe the garage opens at 6am or so. I wrote a pretty extensive review for the Mosaic location, so I don't have a whole lot to add other than...TRY IT. The instructors are great at assisting first timers, and love helping long-time clients reach new heights. For my class this morning, I had Ali. She was awesome - super encouraging, energetic, and gently pushed the entire class to do more. I don't expect anything less from solidcore; every instructor I had up until now goes above and beyond. I am not usually one for routines when it comes to working out, but I make sure solidcore is part of my week - every single week, multiple times. read more

This workout is the best. I absolutely cannot get enough. It's intense but totally modifiable if needed for injuries. It's like Pilates on steroids! Sometimes it's a love/hate relationship but that comes with the territory of being such a hard, rewarding workout class. I feel super strong after just a few classes and it's helped my lower back pain so much. It's basically the only workout I can do right now and I'm so glad I'm pain-free afterwards. My fave coaches are Kara, Ashely, Kayla and Natalie. They are fun, encouraging and totally understand my back issues. This workout will kick your booty but it's amazing! read more

I'm clearly in the minority here, but I did not enjoy it at all. I've done traditional Pilates for 2 years in the past but hadn't gone for almost 1.5 years, and therefore decided to do the beginner class. The music is insanely loud and I can't understand anything the instructor says. There are 14 people lined up in a row which in my opinion makes it impossible for the instructor to notice who needs help. You can think you're doing the move correctly but be off by something small and subtle, which makes a huge difference. I felt there was no personal attention at all. Maybe I would have liked this had I not loved my former studio, which maxes out at 8 students per class and gives tons of attention to each one. But solidcore clearly isn't for me. Unfortunately I bought a package of 2 and will be wasting the second one. read more

I preface this review with the fact that I am not particularly fit or athletic. [solidcore] opened in my building at the beginning of month, and I figured I would try it out. I was terrified after watching their videos that they post online, but I need to get in shape, so I still signed up. I've now been four times (in two weeks), and I think I'll keep going back. It's a great workout -- super intense, but you can modify it to your ability level as well. I am naturally lazy, but this place does not let you wimp out. Whether you like it or not, you will be sweaty, shaking, and seriously questioning your own judgement at the end of the class. After only a few classes, I've definitely noticed myself getting stronger and I can do more of the exercises without modifications and hold positions longer. The instructors are good -- there seems to be some variation in terms of how much they correct you or provide individual instruction, but I've never been unhappy with anyone. When I was in a full class on a Saturday, I really appreciated that they had a second instructor assisting to make sure everyone got individual attention. So... why four stars? As a non-fitness fanatic, I definitely feel totally out of place. [solidcore] doesn't offer a beginner's course (there is a 101 class, but I think that is more how to use the machine), and it can be really intimidating. I'm still coming back, so it's not terrible, but it's not a great feeling either. read more

Love working out here. A bit pricey but worth it. Solidcore is one of the hardest work outs I've ever done. You might think you are in shape but Solidcore will prove you otherwise. I feel myself getting stronger with each workout. Plus the Old Town coaches are great read more

Solidcore is hardcore! Worth the price! High intensity and a great workout for decent price. Instructors are kind and helpful. This is going to help motivate me to get in shape for the new year and many years to come! read more

I am an avid "try everything" type of person whether it's food, fitness, exploration etc. And boy am I GLAD I tried Solidcore in Old Town!!! I love the energetic and vibey studio. Reminds me of something in NYC or LA. The instructors are welcoming and helpful. It's also an amazing full body workout that will be sure to give you lean muscle definition. My favorite instructor is Kayla - she also has the best sequencing on the machine and seems to know exactly how to burn out muscles- in the best type of way. She must meticulously plan her class and music because it feels super professional each and every time and I always feel like I had an amazing workout with the right amount of soreness. I also like the variety she uses because I sometimes can get bored with certain workouts- blame my ADHD. She pushes you the right amount too and just when I think I can't give anymore- there she is to help me keep going! I haven't tried their Arms&Abs class but I'd LOVE to see a Booty&Abs focused class :) Classes go by quickly and the loud music helps you get out of your mind and have FUN! Working out should be a good time in my opinion - it keeps me going back for more ! read more

Welcome to the ultimate love/hate relationship. You'll be thinking to yourself in the middle of class, "why the hell did I sign up for this?" and then hours later will be happy you did it. Feeling solidsore never felt so good! read more

[solidcore] - Pilates Near Me - Alexandria, Virginia

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE SOLIDCORE! This is seriously the hardest, intense and exhilarating workout I have ever done! It is also wildly addicting. If you love challenging yourself and don't give up when things get tough, this is the place for you! This workout is challening physically AND mentally. Don't worry, the coaches will get you through the workout; they are just as invested in seeing you succeed as you are. I just hit my 100th class a few weeks ago and am so proud of myself and thankful for the coaches who helped me along the way (S/O to Lucy, Kelly, Ali, and Julie). Every coach has their favorite moves and each does different combinations so you will never get bored. They have classes throughout the day during weekdays; the majority of the classes are in the morning starting at 5:30am and in the evenings with their last class starting at 7:30pm. On the weekends, most of their classes are in the morning, before lunch time. They also have branded apparel for sale as well as juices, waters, and protein shakes to help you recover post workout. They provide towels, filtered water with cups, free mints, hair ties, and bobby pins to ensure your hair doesn't bother you when you are planking and lounging (even though your hair will be the least of your concerns when you are working out here). I am so happy that this place opened up right by my house and wish them nothing but amazing luck and success as they continue expanding. read more
