This is a wonderful studio, and I'm so happy that I found it. While I am very active (running,…read moreskiing), I really felt like I could stand to improve my core strength. I've never enjoyed yoga, so I thought I would give Pilates a try. As someone who has never been particularly flexible, though, I'll admit that I was a little nervous. I booked my first private appointment to learn the ropes, and I had a wonderful experience. Andrea is a great instructor-- encouraging and helpful. She knows just when to push me, and she makes adjustments to ensure that I'm not cheating on the reformer (I have one side that is stronger than the other, and she keeps a close eye on my form). I'm totally hooked now-- I've been doing private seasons twice a week for two months, and I've even been in for a group session that I also loved (Kristine is also a fantastic instructor). The studio is clean, spacious, and bright (lots of natural light, which I love). Even in a group setting you don't feel like you are on top of anyone else, and if you have a private session booked while there are other sessions in progress there are two private rooms. The equipment is clean and in great shape, and everyone is very friendly and welcoming (regardless of your ability). I'm just so pleased that I found this gem so close to home!

Change Your Life While Having Fun…read more.. My wife and I are seniors in our 70s, but remain active. I've gone to the gym 3 days a week for many years while she's taught Jazzercise and gone to Zumba classes for a long, long time. But something was missing. Pilates at Tabula Rasa is a kick in the pants. Pilates is meant to strengthen your core muscles. Between introductory sessions and a package of 10 classes for $275...all with the owner, Vanessa (although there are other trainers)... we've worked on things we didn't know existed. - Overall: 5 - Owner: 5+ - Getting Started: 5 - Range of Classes: 5 - Online Management: 5 - Yurt: 5 - Class Size: 5 - Personal Attention: 5+ - Cost: 4 - Location: 5 - Facilities: 5 - Parking in Dry Weather: 5 - Parking in Wet Weather: ? Pros: - The owner, Vanessa Dominguez, is amazing. Her knowledge, ability to explain and pay attention to each person even in a class of 2-6 people is uncanny. Her energy is breathtaking - literally. If we were back in the 1970s or 80s, Vanessa would be on TV with best selling videos. - Sample the equipment in her studio, ask whatever comes to mind and get a feel for what it's all about at no charge nor obligation. - There's a big range of classes at most hours of the day with several highly skilled and motivating instructors. - Managing your pilates schedule is simple, online and flexible. - All classes are behind Vanessa's house in a "yurt"...a big teepee shaped building with lots of equipment. It's actually quite spacious and comfortable with air conditioning and a big fan dropping down from the center. - Classes are limited to 6 people, although most we've seen had 2-4. Lots of personal care if you need it and each session is tailored to the attendees. - Cost is not "cheap", but reasonable - Location is convenient for residents of Nipomo - it's within a mile of Trilogy and Black Lake - and not bad for those in Arroyo Grande. - If you're hungry, thirsty or need a bathroom, she's got feee snacks, water and facilities. - There's a big parking lot in front of Vanessa's house for cars and trucks. Con: - Yes, there's one con. The parking lot is not paved so when the rainy season arrives there will probably be lots of mud. Our weekly pilates session changed our lives. Now all we've got to do is find a good place to park when things are wet.

Great classes that you can do at your level of comfort. They'll help you. I have a very arthritic wrist, 2 knee replacements & pins/plates in my right arm. We find a way to work around those things. My balance gets better all the time, I'm stronger, can do things now I wouldn't attempt when I started. I take just 2 classes a week generally. I've dropped 2 sizes and at 68 my body is in the best shape it's been in in 30 years. Thank you Mary & Sami and the other instructors!

I've never done Pilates, but they got me comfortable with the routines, machines, and challenged me all at the same time. Barre - so goooood!

I love this place and have finally found a somewhere that makes me WANT to workout. Plus - they do fun events like bubbles and barre - who wouldn't want some champagne after a workout ;-)
