    I've never done yoga or Pilates in my life and thanks to The Mat both are now essential in my life! Love every single class!!! The instructors are so helpful and motivating (: 100/10 recommend!

    I love this yoga studio so much! The instructors are all phenomenal and they each have their own style of teaching and their own vibe. The classes are versatile and there is something for everyone. I usually leave here feeling mentally recharged and drenched in sweat. Don't be afraid to come and check it out. I was a little hesitant at first because I hate trying new places by myself but we are always our own roadblock. You won't regret it, try a class and don't be surprised if you walk out with a membership like I did!

    Great community, lovely instructors, and a variety of classes. Hot yoga, mat Pilates, inferno pump, infernal mat Pilates, and more! I'm a morning persons so I love the 5:30 am classes but they have a range until 7 pm! They provide the weights, bands, sliders, and blocks. Just bring your mat and a towel!

    I have been coming here for almost a year now and I have been loving it! All of the instructors are well-experience, kind, and motivating. One thing that always surprises me is how intentional they are about remembering our names. I highly recommend joining The Mat community.

    Crystal, Joselyn, Britt, Jazz, Jack, Melina, Mary! All amazing. Positive and encouraging team. Comfortable and vibrating environment for the community and people who come here. Not only are you strengthening your body and breaking a sweat. All of the instructors incorporate mental health awareness. The Mat is self care at its finest!

    Mom of four with a high demand job, serious about blowing off steam, releasing stress, staying fit, and prioritizing my physical and mental health. The Mat is my sanctuary, it's where I go for some "me" time and for amazing workouts. The instructors are awesome, great energy, serious about their practice, and keep classes fun! They have a great variety of class types and times, and even change up the classes with new moves and use of different equipment. The studio is very professional (no cancelled classes, they start and end on time, etc.) and is super clean! I highly recommend joining this studio, life changing!

    I have been manifesting something like The Mat to be in this location for years! I am so extremely thankful for this studio, the owners and all staff. I appreciate them and this little community they have built in such a short time. This is where I go for me time-mentally and physically. The studio is small, but cozy & clean with a variety of classes to choose from. I guarantee you will sweat. Don't hesitate to take care of and challenge yourself here!

She asked everyone before we began class if anyone had any ailments so she could tailor her focus or show you alternate ways to do poses to best suit you. She walks around to each person to allow guidance. She "picked" on me as I was a newbie but I really appreciated it. I put on my learning cap and really tried to absorb everything and try out the different resources. Oh you've got a bean bag or an eye mask, sure I'll try those out. I had never taken a restorative type class. Here you use several props to support your body, while focusing on one part of your body, you relax the rest of your body. Once you find the perfect balance, you hold each position for an extended period of time. In the classes I took in the past you moved through the poses so fast you never really felt what you were doing. This was much more focused. The music was beautiful, the light was dim, and she offered words of enlightenment along the way. It was very relaxing, rejuvenating, mind opening and perfect. I can't wait to try out the other classes the Benicia Yoga and Wellness has to offer. Thank you Laura!!

There is an exercise named the hundreds, and after doing it, my neck would hurt. I told Cristela about it after class. The next morning Cristela said she'd been thinking about it and wanted to watch me do the exercise. She noticed I lifted with my head first instead of my chest and that was what was causing my neck to hurt. She is very thoughtful with every member. It is not just Cristela that is knowledgeable, patient and kind; every instructor is invested in seeing the members work at their own pace and succeed. I've only been a member at Club Pilates for three months and already I'm stronger and leaner. It is my happy place.

Compelled enough to take time out of my life and write this review- Trust me I don't want to but I also don't think its fair I'm getting treated int his manner. Wednesday, January 10, 2024: commencement of text messages from "Club Pilates Benicia" from someone named Aaijsha? with the 1855.920.0316 text number.  Sunday, March 2, 2024: I ask for a menu, any grand opening specials & their open date. Said due to open April 6. I ask for the menu. ask me to call when I already confirmed I preferred text messages. I ask for a menu again. He/She asks for "a menu of what? I don't understand what your asking me"I state a membership menu., a brochure of all the membership options; something with all the plans people are able to select from and see the membership options. (very standard & typical for any business newly opening up) marketing material...I asked if that made senseHe/She stated they don't put pricing on brochures because prices are subject to change and asked if he/she was making sense to me.  Sometime in March:They had a couple pop-ups. One got cancelled due to the rain. Thursday, April 28, 2024: I walk into the studio as I see they are open. I finally see a brochure! never mention my experience but glad to get some questions answered. Lovely girl with bangs that helped me. She said they had a promo but never mentioned that there was a deadline. I let her know I will definitely join but needed to consult with my husband as to which plan because the promo was not applicable to the plan that includes being able to work out at other locations as we do travel.  Today, May 3, 2024 8am: I walk in because I called twice and no answer. I try and sign up to take advantage of the promo and they tell me I can't. The computer was down so I had to wait for a re-boot. I inquired about joining that day and being able to still make it to a class because I scanned the cute little QR code on the back of the brochure I got the week prior and it brought me to intro classes only for the following week and I wanted to take a class that morning or day- right away. I've already taken the into class at the Walnut Creek location and my friend is opening up the El Cerrito location but I live here so by default of course. The lady in front advises I come to the 10am class that the owner teaches. Im just exhausted at this point to get an answer, contact. I WANT TO JOIN BUT AFTER AN ENDLESS RUN AROUND & GETTING TREATED LIKE THIS,WOULD YOU SPEND HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS & JOIN? I DON'T FEEL VALUED AS A PERSON, CONSUMER, MEMBER, WOMAN, MOTHER NOTHING.
