I…read moream so glad I found him because there is no way I would be this far along or love Pilates as much as I do without his guidance. Andrew has an amazing way of motivating you while keeping the energy in class upbeat and fun. Every session is challenging in the best possible way and he has a true gift for fixing form so you get the most out of every single movement. His attention to detail is incredible and his encouragement keeps me pushing myself more than I ever thought I could. He truly stands out as the best Pilates trainer in San Diego. Whether you are brand new or more advanced, whether you are a boy or a girl, young or old, Andrew is your guy. If you want a trainer who will inspire you, challenge you, and make you look forward to every single workout, look no further.

    I've been going to the La Mesa & Santee studios for about two years and genuinely love both…read more Pilates is the first workout I've been able to stick with--great instructors, welcoming staff, and a group setting that keeps me accountable. I've seen real gains in strength and mobility, and classes feel accessible for all ages and experience levels. Highly recommend either location. I've heard great things about almost every instructor, but these are the ones I've taken most and would recommend 10x over: Tracy F. - Warm, funny, and welcoming. I've taken 150+ of her classes and they're always fun, varied, and challenging. She creates a supportive environment, encourages growth, and keeps things fresh each week. Her TRX class is one of my all-time favorites. Anel - My first-ever Pilates instructor and a big reason I stuck with it. She teaches a more classical style and clearly explains form and function, which built my confidence early on. Consistent warmups, always-changing flows, and uplifting energy that carries you through class. Jenni G. - A newer instructor to me and now a weekly favorite. She's super attentive (always remembers my lower back issue), offers great modifications, and gives cues that just click. Her flow and TRX classes are fun, challenging, and set to great music. A great pick for beginners or anyone leveling up. Stacy C. - Somehow both challenging and calming. She has a peaceful, encouraging presence and checks in with everyone during class with gentle corrections and praise. I love how she weaves in anatomy and form education--her classes fill up for a reason. One thing I will say is I've noticed there is often not front desk staff at this studio. Instructors seems to be able to help with any logistical stuff like scheduling a class or buying merchandise, but if you have questions about your membership, payment cycles, referrals/discounts or anything like that--you may be better off calling at a different time of day or just emailing the studio.

    I love going to the studio because of the instructors. The one I enjoy most going to is Tracy Ford…read more She makes it so enjoyable, along with the fact that she is an exceptional instructor. I attend as many classes that she teaches as I can.

    Absolutely love this Hotworx studio. I was looking for a more affordable option for hot yoga and…read morehot pilates and this one definitely nailed it. I love the 24/7 accessibility and the ability to usually have your own sauna. With that being said, I do have some recommendations or things to keep in mind: -I wish the saunas were bigger! They say that it's big enough for 3, but 2 is definitely cramped in the saunas. -The saunas are not built for tall people. I am 5'4 and lay down all the way across the sauna (facing the instructors) -The classes do not vary that much. They are supposed to change every month but I notice some do not change or if they do, the variations are not that different.

    As a former athlete and lifter, getting back into a consistent workout routine has felt…read moreintimidating--until I found HOTWORX Santee. This place has made the transition so much smoother for me, both physically and mentally. What I love most is the flexibility. It's open 24 hours, which is a huge deal as a busy mom. I can come in early in the morning or late at night, depending on what my day looks like. The system they use to keep the studio secure makes me feel really safe--entry is code-based and the doors stay locked, which gives peace of mind during early morning or late night sessions. The workouts themselves are incredible. The infrared sauna element adds a detoxing benefit that I genuinely feel. When I stay consistent, I notice a big difference: less pain and inflammation, improved flexibility, better posture, more energy, and a clearer mind overall. I also love that they have a dedicated weightlifting area! They offer a variety of free weights up to 50 pounds, a TRX setup, and a cable machine that allows for a full range of exercises. Being able to combine the benefits of infrared workouts with traditional strength training in the same visit has been a game changer for me. The studio is always very clean and well maintained, and I really appreciate that it's not overcrowded. Sure, there are peak times like any gym, but it's generally easy to get in, out, and book a session without stress. The staff is also amazing--always kind, helpful, and welcoming. You can tell they care about the environment and the people coming in. If you're looking for a unique, safe, and effective workout space that works with your lifestyle, I can't recommend HOTWORX Santee enough!

I have some injuries/pain and he has helped me work through it...he will do everything he can to help you modify the exercises and provide ways to heal while getting in shape. The classes I take are 30 minutes of varied circuit training using dumbbells, kettlebells, resistance bands, floor work, barbells, etc to provide varied and thorough workouts. You never get bored- you are always challenged and Rio takes his time to ensure you have top-form for peak performance! Rio is an amazing trainer. He is very motivating and he is not a screamer- he is also non-judgmental and creates a comfortable environment for someone of any fitness level to enjoy! A very trustworthy and honest place to be, you will not be disappointed in the results...it is the only program I have stuck with for as long as I have. I cannot believe it has been a year already.

    I've been training at Shape360 twice a week for almost one year, and I can honestly say that it is…read morethe best thing I did for my health and my body last year! While I was already pretty fit as an avid swimmer, hiker, occasional runner, and yogi, I hadn't strength trained regularly in nearly a decade and was a bit nervous to dive back in. I had nothing to worry about. Mike, Michelle, and Kristianne are all exceptional! They bring energy, expertise, and creativity to every session, and make getting strong fun. They take the time to learn your goals and provide modifications, whether you're recovering from a muscle strain or rebuilding strength after a more serious injury (in my case, a bone break from the previous year). I receive tailored feedback on my form in every session, which has been invaluable for injury prevention. The workouts are always challenging but fly by. No two sessions are the same. Nearly a year in, I'm STILL learning new exercises and variations. And my results speak for themselves: I have gained muscle everywhere and am much stronger than I was a year ago. I have doubled (or more) the amount of weight I'm using since day one in many exercises, and I never thought I'd be doing dead lifts and chin ups--but with consistency I've made great progress. I've got more stamina on long hikes and am able to climb up steeper hills more quickly (and with less discomfort during and soreness afterward) thanks to the strength gains I've made. As someone who travels frequently for work, I've also learned some bodyweight and resistance band exercises that I can easily do in a hotel room, keeping me on track no matter where I am. Michelle has done an incredible job fostering a sense of community here. The other members are friendly and inspiring, and their support and positive energy makes me look forward to coming to class. Shape360 is an amazing environment to train in!

    I've been training at Shape 360 for eight months and I absolutely love my results! I'm so thankful…read moreto have found a fitness studio/trainer that has transformed my physical and mental health. Michelle consistently inspires me and pushes me to my limits while also knowing my weaknesses. At Shape 360 you'll find a diverse group of people which was very important to me as a woman of color. Even with the small group training Michelle is very great at responding to each individual's needs. Also not to mention this studio is very clean, sanitary and aesthetically pleasing. :) There are also showers available.
