The most unbelievable breath work and sound bath is in Dana Point,CA! This place and the talented men with Beyond The Mat are in a different league of their own!! The expertise in execution of breath work is a game changer. Go and treat yourself to a life changing experience! BRAVO!!! read more

We signed up for the 2 week trial to see if we liked it. The place is smaller so the classes aren't super huge and you get a more personal experience. They really focus on posture and doing the moves correct. We loved it and can't wait to go back! They also stress cleanliness! All around wonderful place! read more

It's been a while of training and I would like to say major thanks to Colleen and Michelle!

I've been going to Studio A 5 times a week for over a year now. This place is like a second home to me. All of the instructors are wonderful. The class size is very small and You get individual attention through corrections and adjustments. The booking system is through their app, very simple and there are many classes daily to choose from. I wish i could take this studio back to Germany with me. ;( read more

My daughter and I followed Colleen to Studio A. We try to take all of Colleen's classes but we have enjoyed a few of the other instructors too THANK YOU COLLEEN you make pilates a blast. (we also enjoy Brooke, and Michelle's classes too!) read more

I was looking for a new studio for mat yoga, pilates and barre. I met with the owner when I walked in one day. I liked the clean inviting space. The owner told me I could go several routes for mat classes, 1. Unlimited classes monthly for 99.00 a month 2. Buy passes as I come in 3. A two week pass for 49.00 to check it out first. 4. She offered if I was to commit to 6 months of unlimited monthly mat classes she could offer 89.00 a month. As per her suggestion, I signed up for the two weeks and started there. After my two weeks were up I wanted to sign up for the 6 months commitment, monthly mat classes for 89.00 a month. Since there is no assigned front desk person at this small studio, I would of been interrupting someones pilates session if I came in and just stood there so, I decided to use their"Say Hello" email contact. I wrote 4 times over a period of two weeks. I explained I was done with my two week pass and wanted the 89.00 6 month pass I was offered the owner. While I keep receiving emails from the studio about "deals" I can sign up for none are the 89.00 I was offered. It is not in the menu of classes on their website. I am left with the impression that the owner does not want to honor this deal and hopes I give up and sign up online for the 99.00 monthly classes with no commitment. Or maybe they just do not care enough about bringing in new business. Either way, While I liked the yoga teacher and the space , I do not condone a businesses practice of blowing off people. They should not have a email contact if they are never going to answer them. It is the same email address as the emails I receive about specials, I tried responding to that too. So, while many reviews love this place, I was basically offered deals by the owner who never responds to her emails, or checks up on new prospective clients. You lost one here that is for sure. read more

Studio A, where have you been all my life? Honestly, folks! I have a background in dance, pilates, yoga, you name it and I love this place! I found Studio A by miracle and I am so glad I did! Intimate setting, SUPER clean, chic, and Andrea the owner is absolutely the best instructor out there, (as well as all her instructors.) The MELT class - please, please try this class. After suffering a car accident that left me with neck, back and nerve pain even after acupuncture and chiropractic care, it only helped a little, but taking the MELT class has helped all that pain heal (since the first class) so I can do Pilates again! Andrea is extremely detail oriented, and works around your injuries to help heal yet get a great workout at the same time. Then I met Carrie, another awesome professional Pilates instructor. Not only is she an awesome trainer, she motivates you and makes you want to keep coming back. She is top notch, folks! There are others too but I have yet to try all the classes! I know you have a LOT of choices between Pilates, Megaformer and Yoga studios, but this one is the real deal. They are nice to EVERYONE, treat EVERYONE the same! I used to take Megaformer classes and barely anyone ever said hello, here, but here, I have talked to not only all the students (ladies and men), but also all the instructors! It's nice when it feels like a community with similar goals in life..... healthy lifestyle, high quality of life. Check it out! read more

I signed up for MELT classes with Andrea, and am so pleased I did! She is a wonderful instructor who really cares about her students. It has made a significant difference in the quality of my work outs. Carol Westervelt read more

My friend and I took a class with Caroline and it was amazing. She is super sweet and non judgmental and helped me throughout the class with my poses. The space is super serene and clean and the yoga workout had me sweating buckets and getting all red in the face which rarely happens. Good choice if you are in the area. read more

Beautiful studio. My boyfriend and I have taken several privates here and loved it. We can't wait to go back. Andrea and Michelle are both wonderful instructors. read more

Overall just an amazing place.. great energy, very clean, light, bright and airy. Wanted to share about my experience today. I offer 2 different services for work that are pretty hard on the body. After working for 6 days in a row, I had a difficult night's sleep from tension, pain in my neck and hands. I attended Sonny's 9AM yoga class, which immediately I started to feel relief. After the yoga class, I stayed for his MELT for Pilates class. I went into it with my neck still stiff and some pain. Throughout the class I felt the remaining tension dissipate. My hands felt much lighter, as well. Highly recommend Sonny's expertise and any of Studio A's classes with all of their great instructors. read more

I am very excited about the opening of Studio A. Andrea is an amazing instructor who cares about her clients and watches carefully to correct alignment. I also enjoy Brittany very detailed and sweet. All the staff is warm and inviting. I'm a lover of the Reformer, but have heard great things from my friends about the Barre Class. The atmosphere is tranquil and beautifully set up. The schedule offers a lot of variety. Check it out ! You won't be disappointed. read more

I began to try Yoga 3 months ago. I have never done it before so i was very timid. The staff was so wonderful and patient. I now go to yoga 3 times a week. I am not as good as many others in the class, but they make me feel very comfortable about that. the instructor often gives me cues and instruction so I can get better every week. I can feel that I am stronger, my sciatica has gone away! I have tried pilates, that was great. A real work out. I went to a melt class. Incredible. It was very low impact, easy to complete but very helpful. read more

Great studio. Love the service and it is super clean.

Wonderful class, tough but creative and fun! Never experienced this form of Pilates before, great instructor walked us through everything and still kept up the pace. read more

Have been doing Pilates for years.....this is the best studio. First and foremost are the knowledgeable instructors. The reformers and ancillary equipment and supplies are top of the line. The studio is welcoming, spacious, and tastefully designed. read more

WOW! I am just blown away by this pilates studio. It is gorgeous! Everyone is friendly and Andrea is a phenomenal instructor. She really took her time to explain everything thourougly and helped me keep in correct alignment. I haven't tried their yoga classes yet but plan on it soon. If the quality is anything like the pilates classes then I'm sure they'll be amazing! read more

I have been going to Studio A Pilates for 8 months now, and it is the best thing I've done for my health in years. I had pain that had started at my s.i. joint and over ten years it moved around my body, just getting worse no matter what I tried. I'm very active, and at some point last spring, my body was overused and overdone; it just did not want to move through the pain any more. So I hobbled in with the 2-week special and was able to try all of their classes. I loved the unique MELT, Yamuna Body Rolling, and Pilates on the reformer. Everything about this studio is top quality, from the equipment, to the products, to the cleanliness, location, and especially the instructors. I only kick myself for not having started 10 years ago! read more

A newly opened studio with experienced instructors, and clean new equipment. Andrea, the owner, has depth of knowledge not only of Pilates but of body structure. The classes seem to focus on technique and form which is far better than the manic group classes that I have taken at other places. Andrea immediately noticed how my hips were misaligned when I work out, which made me realize is probably the cause of my knee issue (a light bulb moment). We are now working on making sure that I don't favor one side when I work out. I have been training in the gym with a trainer for over 25 yrs as well as doing kayaking hiking, yoga, and rowing. Pilates is a great way to keep your core and balance in shape as you age. read more

Studio A has made me into a workout regular. I look forward to going there; I never felt that way about the gyms I have belonged to. Andrea has created a warm, welcoming environment. It is a beautiful soothing space. Her instructors are the highest caliber trainers I have ever worked with. Each one takes their time to ensure you are doing each exercise correctly, to avoid injury and maximize your workout. Be sure and try out Sonny for yoga, Beatrice for barre, and Carrie for Pilates and TRX. I'm in better shape than I've been in my life, after coming here for a year, thanks to Andrea and her amazing staff. Debbie B read more

I absolutely LOVE this place. It's a beautiful studio, clean and with all the equipment you could ever need. The instructors are so knowledgeable and kind and people taking class are so friendly. The classes are small which means you get great feedback from the teachers to help you improve your practice. I wish I could let everyone know about this great find! read more

If you want to enter a Zen space, go to Studio A. Melt along with Andrea, roll on pearls and gold with Tiffany, contemplate your third eye with Kyra, stretch those muscles with Carrie. Studio A is a place of sun and peace, and ... fun. It's is nothing short of a beautiful oasis. Go. Now. read more

This studio is fantastic! I have never before been a studio with such high quality equipment, kind and knowledgable instructors, and not to mention a beautifully designed studio space in a fabulous spot by the beach! I don't need to look any further to find my favorite yoga spot in OC! Highly recommend checking it out. read more

Came in because I found an offer for a free trial and wanted to give it a try. Only AFTER I had completed the class, the owner decided she didn't feel like letting me use the free trial and made me pay for it. Incredibly rude owner, don't go here. read more

I recently took the prenatal Pilates class and loved it. It was a great workout! The instructor seemed very knowledgeable and I will absolutely be back! read more

I absolutely LOVE this studio! Everyone (instructors & other clients) are very friendly and you feel comfortable immediately. Great variety of classes. Try them all during the 2 week unlimited deal and you will quickly see why these guys have 5 star reviews. Make sure to try the kombucha they sell as well. read more

Studio A is a great Pilates and yoga studio. Every instructor is outstanding. They treat each person as an individual and carefully monitor your every move. Beginners (like me) are made to feel immediately comfortable. Advanced students (like my wife) are challenged to perform at their best. Studio A has the newest equipment and the studio is kept in spotless manner. I recommend Studio A without reservation. It's a great place that has a great vibe. read more

Studio A is amazing. Such a beautiful facility with the best instructors in the county. I highly recommend taking classes here! The owner is extremely knowledgeable and maybe the most highly trained in her field. Love it! read more

I have been to several studios around the country and this is by far the best I've encountered. I've done Pilates, MELT and Barre with Andrea, Beatrice and Carrie. I am not proficient at any, but the instructors are focused and well trained to work with you regardless of level. I've had balance issues in recent years, the combination of those three classes has helped tremendously. As I write this review, I am on the east coast missing Studio A and the amazing progress I make when I'm on the west coast. read more

Wow! This is a BRAND NEW, fully remodeled studio space with top of the line certified instructors. The lofted ceilings, brand new equipment, and calmingly chic decor was so impressive. The $49 unlimited class special is almost too good to be true, and it is a perfect way to try out any of the Pilates, yoga, or barre classes. Definitely making Studio A my new go-to for all of my fitness and wellness needs! Amazing! read more

Studio A is AMAZING ! I am new to pilates (and was skeptical as to how it could help my various competitive sports), but have been converted and absolutely love it. Since starting pilates just a few months and training at Studio A, I have increased strength and flexibility and decreased back trouble. I cannot say enough positive things about the studio, the instructors, or Andrea - simply a fabulous place. read more

I'm 54 and I work at a computer all day with a good deal of stress to meet constant deadlines. It's become apparent that just walking my dogs wasn't enough. Studio A Pilates & Yoga is a God send! Andrea and all the instructors are knowledgeable and focus on what is needed for my specific body areas (tension, movement, reshaping) while ensuring good form to avoid injury. The Pilates and Barre classes are so much fun! The MELT method classes are engaging at the deepest core level providing that feel good 'life energy'. Yoga with Sonny and Kyra -- ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. The Studio is peaceful and relaxing and offers members of all levels a space to get in touch with our minds, bodies and happy place. Thank you Studio A! read more
