5/5 This is one of the best studios in L.A. I visit/join/tour a lot of Pilates studios because I've been obsessed with it since I was introduced to Mari Windsor Pilates in 2002. I was also a mat Pilates instructor a gang of years ago! This studio has the best choreographers. They incorporate beautiful dynamic movements that stretch, burn, and build your muscles. The instructors are also very kind and engaging and support proper posture and form while performing the movements. There are a lot of great studios in L.A. but Studio Elevate is in my top 3. read more

Studio Elevate - Pilates Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I love this studio! The teachers are welcoming and so helpful. When I started I was so scared, but having the best Pilates teacher made me fall in love with Pilates and I committed to it. A year in and I am so much stronger. read more

My FAVORITE Pilates studio in Los Angeles. A little over two years ago I started my journey with Studio Elevate. I fell in love with the kind teachers and warm atmosphere. The vibes here are immaculate. In September of 2023, I decided to commit more to my practice and started taking 5 classes a week. Through these classes my body has completely transformed. I have never been this strong in my life. Because Pilates is low impact it makes coming to frequent classes sustainable and enjoyable. I used to be so overworked and stressed from high impact workouts and was never able to get the results I wanted. By being consistent at Studio Elevate I have been able to push myself in ways I never thought possible while finding peace within my workouts. Leah is a dream and her team of skilled instructors are incredible. Thank you to Krissy for helping me stay consistent and keeping me strong. read more

I love the style of pilates classes here! The lightness of the space; the big mirrors and white beams make pilates so heavenly! The instructors are so knowledgeable and adaptable to everyone's style. The playlists that they use are unique and there's something about 45 minute classes that feel just right. I love that they have the socks there ready and that classes aren't very intimidating even when the pace picks up. My form and body has refined a lot since joining and I highly recommend! read more

First time doing Pilates and I really enjoyed it! The teacher was also very kind and helped me find my flow - I may sign up! read more

I've been going to this studio about twice a week for the past 5 months and I'm obsessed with this neighborhood spot! Parking is easy with always spots in front or in the residential streets. The space is light airy with large mirrors. The overall aesthetic is super warm, calm, soothing, and intimate. There's only about 8-10 reformers so classes are small and I love the attention to form that instructors give to ensure you are following the movements properly and safely. I recommend this studio to everyone. It's not traditional Pilates but I love the combination of movement. read more

I love the feel of this studio! It's such a welcoming environment with amazing teachers who truly care!

I'll keep this quick: I went from never working out to doing pilates four days a week. The fact that I now routinely get up at 6:30am to work out is a testament to the welcoming space, patient and knowledgable trainers, enjoyable classes and overall good vibes at Elevate. At the risk of being dramatic, this crew has changed my life (or at the very least, my health). read more

Metered parking in the front. If you get there early, there is no one to let you in until 10 min before a class. I wanted to get to the west side before traffic so I decided to do a Pilates class before my appointment. Loved my first class. It was perfect! The instructor was friendly and the place is very nice and clean. I wished It was closer to work or home! I would definitely go all the time! I'm definitely coming back if I'm ever on the west side! read more

Studio Elevate - Front of the building. Metered parking in front from 8am-6pm mon-sat - Pilates Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I've been doing pilates for a little over a year, and have been going to studio elevate for most of that time! This is the best studio in LA. Krissy and Kelsey are amazing - 6:30am on Tues & Thurs!! I feel so strong and my body has never felt better!! Love you guys Studio Elevate!! read more

Such a great workout this morning! So clean and a very appropriately spaced out machines. They check your temp at the door and sanitize the machines even after you do it yourself- super clean! Erin was amazing, made us sweat within minutes! read more

Studio Elevate - Pilates Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I wanted to update my review, since nearly four years later, I'm still going to Studio Elevate! Over the years they've expanded the types of classes they offer, which I really love. I like the Strength classes (as opposed to the more traditional Pilates sculpt classes) and the Cardio classes are great for when I want a little extra sweat (burpees for the win!) The instructors are consistently great and will give you modifications for those days you want to try extra hard or need something a little less intense. The focus on form and doing the move the right way, with instructor corrections to your form as needed, have been great for me. Overall, I hope to continue going to this studio for the next four years! read more

Amazing studio!!!! I've taken three classes already and every single class has been phenomenal! Every single teacher is very good. I can't wait to the Reform and Ride. I love the ambiance and highly recommend. read more

Studio Elevate - Reformers are close enough to the mirror so you can easily see your form - Pilates Near Me - Los Angeles, California

The studio is a megaformer pilates studio. The check-in is easy, first-timers will sign a waiver and the ipad will have your name on it if you booked online. I tried twice with different teachers and really liked the place. The parking is easy, a lot behind studio and meter on the streets. The studio is spacious and spotless with adjustable lighting. Four fans on the ceiling, make the air always fresh. The front of the studio has a little shop area where they sell skin care and activewear, I'm pleasantly surprised they offer a changing station with a mirror to try the clothing. The bathroom is ok, not fancy but clean. The workouts were good because the reformers were in good condition and the sound system worked great. Can't think of one thing that I didn't like. The next door is a juicing shop where you can get 20% off if you take a class. Will return for sure. read more

Incredible workout! truly my favorite after many many years in LA. Thank you for creating such a wonderful experience all around. read more

I took their Zoom class on Tuesday and it was AMAZING! I was sore for multiple days. The class was great and the instructor was so encouraging. This was my first Zoom fitness class and I'm looking forward to more with Studio Elevate! With work at a standstill due to covid-19, to be able to take this class on a donation basis is everything. Thank you for getting me moving! read more

What's not to like- amazing workout, wonderful people. Thank you! The front desk woman was so kind, and the workout was well bought out and effective read more

absolutely LOVE this studio! I look forward to going every time- such an accomplished workout. Love the results too! I definitely feel much stronger after going. I'd love to shop at the store but don't know the hours though or when it's open to come by besides class times? read more

I absolutely LOVE this studio! The atmosphere is very chill & welcoming, the instructors are all friendly, warm, and knowledgeable, and the classes kick my butt every time! I've never tried the Reform & Ride, but always leave the Reform Strength classes feeling stronger. You don't build up much of a sweat, which make these classes ideal for a pre-work workout... but don't be fooled! You'll feel the burn for sure :) HIGHLY recommend! read more

It was my first time today to Studio Elevate and hands down it's the best pilates class I've taken( and I have taken a ton). I left there feeling strong and lean. Can't wait for my next class. read more

Pilates is my go to workout. I was excited to get back on the machine and Studio Elevate is taking all the proper measures to keep everyone safe. From wearing masks at all times unless on your machine, to temperature taking at check in. The studio is so clean and well taken care of which is so comforting at times like now. My teacher was Erin, who I highly recommend. She is amazing, really knowledgeable and also so friendly and encouraging. The studio is top notch and I look forward to my next class! read more

I found Studio Elevate through ClassPass and after I'd used up my 3 class allotment for the month, I realized I couldn't wait another month to go back! I was hooked. I dropped ClassPass, and now that I've been going to Studio Elevate for almost two months I couldn't be happier. At this point, I have taken at least one class from each of the instructors and although Leah and Tracy are my favorites (their Reform Strength classes are NO. JOKE.) all of the instructors are encouraging, knowledgeable and most importantly they lead you through killer workouts. 50 minutes may seem like a short class, but it's actually the perfect amount of time. By the end of each class I've attended, the sweat has been dripping and all the major muscle groups have been worked to exhaustion. You'll definitely be sore the next morning, but it's the good kind of sore that makes you proud of working out. Pros: -Studio is clean, cute, modern -Instructors are encouraging and welcoming -Classes are not long, but tough! Definitely worth every second of your time Cons: -Expensive - but comparable to other boutique Studios on the Westside. Sometimes they run deals/discounts on class packs. Tips: -Street parking is easy to find, lots of metered spaces in front of the studio (but bring coins, these don't take cards), and plenty of non-metered spaces in the residential area behind the studio (make sure to read the parking signs, as with every neighborhood in LA there is street sweeping, etc.) -Wear grippy toe-socks. Not required, but they do make it a lot easier to balance on the Reformer -Alert the instructors if it's your first time, they will go over how to work the Reformer machine with you individually Overall - 5 stars, LOVE. read more

The best Pilates studio I've been to. I miss that place during this pandemic. The classes and instructors are awesome. And if you take the Pilates strength classes be prepared to sweat and get your ass kicked. Such a good workout. read more

I'd never taken a reformer class until I took the Reformer Fundamentals class with Leah. She was great with providing instructions regarding form and safety. Leah has a way of cheering you on that's enough to push you without being overzealous. Machines and studio are clean. The actual studio is through the lobby door so no one outside can be creepy and stare at you. But there is a mirrored wall inside so you can stare at yourself (to check your form, of course). The lobby is furnished nicely - somewhere you could comfortably chill in while waiting for a class. They sell BKR bottles, grippy socks and delicious candles among other useful knick knacks. There's also a water station to refill your newly bought BKR bottle. Next door is a juicery and cryosauna if you're in the mood. Parking is abundant on Washington with metered street parking. I enjoyed my experience here as a beginner! I plan on returning here to advance muh skillz on the machine. Thanks Leah for a great class! read more

Holy crap this workout is no joke! I workout a lot, but my core is like the weakest thing known to man kind. I just took ONE of the pilates/spin classes, and I'm hooked. Yes, I want to kill myself the entire time i'm there, but I feel like with the combo, you really forget it's an hour and you realize "shizz, I just completed an awesome workout." The Studio is super clean and Renew Juicery/Mylk is opening up next door! Their juices are mostly at farmer's markets but are now branching out. YAY! I'm not sure if I can do an entire Pilates class, because I may want to throw up after, but I definitely will be coming back for the combo! Parking: Plentiful on the street and I think there's a lot, just not sure where Music: could use some work; during spin, it's a bit lackluster for me, but it's only 30 minutes so it's not terrible. Notes: bring your own spin shoes if you have, but they do have cages if you don't own any. Also, bring toe socks for pilates! read more

I've taken several classes here (reform sculpt and reform and ride) and I really love reform sculpt classes! I've taken classes with Leah, Tracey, and Danielle and they are all fantastic. I especially loved Danielle because she fixed my form so I knew I was doing my exercises correctly. I like reform and ride class too but I kind of feel like I would rather do an hour of pilates or just one hour of spin :P but that's just personal preference. The classes are pretty similiar to studio MDR classes but I feel like this place might be slightly more chill(?) version of it? It still works you out no doubt about that. The music is usually pretty chill (I actually asked several times about the songs that were being played). Also the place is super clean and all the equipments are new. It's also like 5 minute walk from my place so that's an additional plus for me (not sure about the parking situation) I used to have back problems but thanks to Studio elevate and aerial silk classes I barely get back aches anymore. Amazing. I think grip socks are required but I've seen people barefoot as well just fyi :P read more

Leah is back..and back with a brand new studio to kick your butt! Leah was one of my favorite instructors before she opened Studio Elevate. New studio is super nice with a lounge-y area in the front to hang out in...feels more like someone's living room than a pilates studio. Best part of course are the classes. Leah will give you such a butt kicking and you'll definitely feel it the next day and perhaps the day after. Love the way Leah will keep motivating you even when you think you're done...she'll just keep pushing you and you'll be amazed at what you can do. Oh...and sometimes the class is full of pilates instructors so while it's intimidating, it's also super inspiring to watch the pros go at it with the super hard spring load and no rest..ever. read more

Wow! Challenging but soooooo good. I did the ride and reform class which mixes spin and Pilates. Studio was very clean and bright which is important to me. I'll definitely be back!! read more

Studio Elevate - Pilates Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Studio Elevate is awesome! You can do a mixture of spin + Pilates which is great for your body! Tracy is a great teacher and is extremely helpful in making sure you are doing things right while having fun. They also have a cute boutique with retail items! Upscale studio for people in Westchester, it's also on Class Pass. read more

My co-worker turned me on to this place via ClassPass. I hated working out and the thought of doing a pilates class (or any other workout class, for that matter) freaked me out. I have always had this fear of the LA type studio and instructor who make you feel like you're not cool enough to join their class. This is definitely not the case with Tracy's class. She is so nice and encouraging. Even if you are new to pilates, you will feel very welcome and comfortable in Tracy's class. The only thing that's a bummer with Class Pass is that you can only take this class 3 times per cycle/month so I am not able to take Tracy's class every week with Class Pass. I may have to buy additional classes through Studio Elevate so I can go every week. It's totally worth it. ;) read more

I had been going to Pilates Platinum for years until one of their best instructors, Leah, left to start her own studio. Then I learned their best spin instructor, Janelle, was going with Leah. You might think all Pilates studios are the same (and sometimes it feels that way), but Studio Elevate mixes the best of Pilates and spin and adds ambiance and personality where other studios lack: The Instructors: Very friendly, helpful, engaged with everyone in class - they create a comfortable and non-intimidating environment for all skill-levels - Leah: Great at teaching and reinforcing form to prevent injury, motivates through positive reinforcement, is genuinely passionate about her classes and personable - guaranteed to get a killer workout - Janelle: Excellent music (esp to get you going at 6am), high energy and very helpful to new students, a great spin coach (you won't want to cheat) and great at making sure we're all on task and in proper form The Studio: It's like another reviewer said, if Anthropologie had a Pilates studio... * Location: Metered parking; there are ALWAYS open spaces right in front of the studio * New spin bikes (with baskets if you don't have spin shoes) and clips if you do * All new reformer machines * Open space - no awkwardly elbowing the girl/ guy next to you * Darker/cozy lighting for those who don't like to see every sweating pore of your workout Amenities * Towels - if you forget like I always do * Bathroom (but no shower) * Changing room (for those rushing straight from work) * Water cooler * Socks for purchase if you forgot them (but you don't always need them) * Nice clothes, candles, etc for purchase read more

Studio Elevate is an awesome boutique studio. I personally love Leah's pilates/spin class. She plays great music and when it comes to spin, she knows how to help each person pace themselves to ensure maximum benefit. I've been to a few classes and love the minimalist yet super friendly environment. Definitely worth checking out! read more

Adding another solid Pilates studio to my list of regular go-tos. I like a studio that I can leave feeling like my hour was well spent. And that's how I feel about this studio. And I really like that I can come to this one place for several different kinds of workout - Pilates, Pilates Plus (which essentially has a higher level of cardio and strength), and even Reform & Ride (which is a combo of spinning and pilates). The studio is nice and kind of dark with an amazing AC system. Which is so nice to have when you're doing this kind of workout! Classes are 10 people max, and while I wouldn't say there's amazing /emphasis/ on form like at more traditional, the instructors definitely do care about it and give you notes whenever they feel necessary. read more

Studio Elevate - Pilates Near Me - Los Angeles, California

See all

Obsessed with this Pilates studio- I've tried them all and this is hands down the best. If you can make it to Leah's class you are in for the best workout ever!! Best music, challenging and uplifting. read more

I'd never done Pilates, besides a couple free introductory classes at gyms, but had been wanting to try it as I'd heard a lot of people say they got great results from it. So I was excited when Studio Elevate opened up close to home. After working out for years at a big, national, glossy gym, I must say I really enjoy the more personal, boutiquey feel of a smaller studio. And speaking of boutique, there is a small section of locally-produced items, hand- selected by the owner, Leah, so you can get some really nice and unique gift items there. But back to the workout. I love the combo of Pilates and spin and when they say "intensity with integrity" they mean it. I like that it seems like they really want you to get your money's worth while you are there. A tough and intense workout, guided by knowledgable teachers and good music to help get you through it. I like the combination of the different teachers' styles so you can mix it up. My favorite is Janelle's ride and reform class - she gives a great workout and does it in a compassionate and caring way. And Leah will whip you into shape with a smile on her face! Bottom line- I've seen great results (esp. in the core area) that I was never able to achieve at the gym just lifting weights. I am really glad I found Studio Elevate!! read more

One of my favorite studios. Great class to jump start your day in the morning. Janelle is my favorite instructor and does a great job of working out your full body, communicating and adjusting you without being over the top like some other instructors. The studio is nothing fancy. Very strait forward but, that's all you need! What I like the most is the workout is almost like a Pilates book camp. Janelle is my favorite because I always feel like I got a good work out but, I'm not hurting myself while I do it. Her music is always great too! Leah's classes can be a bit much and over extended in the positions, and you can hurt yourself if you're not mindful. read more

I've gone to multiple pilates reformer studios in the LA area (pilates plus, pilates platinum, carrie's, sweat pilates, studio morph in Pasadena, the Studio MDR), and this new studio certainly competes with the best. Studio Elevate is a gem. They offer a number of classes starting at 6AM until 7PM which is helpful for busy working young professionals such as myself. They use the proformers which is my second favorite to the megaformer. Try out Leah's Reform Strength class or Reform & Ride class--both are challenging workouts! I appreciate Leah's calming yet positive manner-she certainly pushes without stressing you out. The staff have all been very friendly. I've only been going for a few weeks, but they already know my name. A couple of suggestions: I wish the lighting was a little brighter. Sometimes the dim lighting makes it tough for me to see, plus I get sort of sleepy! Also, I think the transitions could be a little quicker to keep up your heart rate. Otherwise, I'm extremely pleased with this studio! Prices are very reasonable and they are on classpass. I'm so happy they have joined the neighborhood! read more

One of my instructors at Pilates Platinum in Venice, Leah (the owner) opened up this studio a couple months ago in Culver West. I have only gone to a couple classes but I am hooked. The studio is large, new and clean. The classes are hard but manageable and the teachers are very good about correcting form and teaching an efficient class. There is free parking in the back and also ample street parking. Try out a class! They are on ClassPass and also had a Gilt City deal. read more

1. It's like Anthropology meets a fitness studio 2. The reform & ride class is unique because you work your upper body and abs for 25 minutes then jump on the spin bike for lower body 3. The instructors push you to your personal edge in an inspiring, not demeaning way read more

Studio Elevate - The reform & ride class is great because you work your upper body & abs then jump on the spin bike for lower body - Pilates Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I have been curious about Pilates and Spinning for some time, and when Studio Elevate moved in a month or so ago, I was super excited..!!! I signed up immediately!!!! But coming from a swimming background i was a bit intimidated. But from the very first class Leah has been so helpful. And actually her and the here whole team has taught me a ton. I love how comfortable and clean the studio is. All the instructors really motivate and support you. I am so excited about the studio and I can't recommend it enough. I have been in the 'Culver West' area for over 10 years. And the neighborhood has been growing rapidly for the past 3/4. And with Studio Elevate moving in the neighborhood it is really becoming more of a community. read more
