She is so knowledgeable about Pilates and how the body works in general. We always leave sore for a few days but I know my body actually got a workout instead of just rolling around on a mat. Erin and Gina are the owners of the studio and we love the atmosphere they have created. You can't go wrong taking classes here with any of the instructors they are all great. I formerly thought anything Pilates or yoga related was boring but now I'm hooked!

Emily has helped me to remove pain from everyday life, build strength and have a more flexible and balanced body. She has an incredible depth of knowledge around every aspect of the body and how it should work, and very quickly helps to correct issues. Pilates will be something that is part of my life for the long run. As a male in the studio, I see that this is a female dominated industry but I feel the positive results for everyone are immense and I highly recommend the experience.

I recently moved to the South Bay and I was looking for work out studios in the area. I found Analu…read morestudios when I was doing the class pass trial. I am so glad I found this place. I was most interested in learning Pilates because I am recovering from a miscarriage and surgery. I wanted to get into low impact work outs that would also be safe for me to continue if and when I can become pregnant again. The owner, Nikala, was so sweet and sensitive when I told her my story. I told her that my core specifically is weak. I absolutely enjoyed my first class with her. After the first class, I purchased the studio's 10 class pack to test out if other instructors and how it fits into my schedule. One month later, I have an unlimited membership. I love Analu studios so much. I feel stronger after every single class. I started going 2x a month. I am working myself to going 3-4x a month. I absolutely love it. The class is small, maybe 6 reformers. The instructors really can pay attention to everyone and make corrections / modifications as needed. There is plenty of party in the back and on the street. Nikala & Kara are my favorite classes to attend. I'm happy I found this studio after everything I've been through.

I took advantage of their new customer promo and have completed 14 classes so far between the…read moreManhattan Beach and Redondo Beach locations. A little background: I'm new to the area, and I did lagree for about 1.5 years when I lived near Arcadia. The machines there were the newer Megaformers, with black, white, and grey springs. At MDR, since they've been established longer in the South Bay, the machines are older generation, with red, orange, and yellow springs. They also have various footholds and handlebars set at different heights. Since I trained on the newer models, I'm still getting used to these older ones at MDR, and it can be a bit confusing. Sometimes I catch myself looking for footholds, or reaching for the wrong handlebar since I'm used to just one bar. That said, lagree is a fantastic full-body workout that targets your abs, legs, arms, and glutes. I still get a challenging, sweaty session every time, it is brutal in the best way. The instructors are helpful, and I don't mind the hands-on adjustments since that's how you actually learn and improve. I'm just not ready to commit to a long-term membership yet, given the South Bay pricing. Parking is plentiful, in the large shared lot with CVS and Bristol Farms.

Instead, you'll find this studio offers grounding, restorative, meditative, mind-body connection Pilates classes that leave you feeling happy and empowered after class. I did Pilates five times a week throughout both of my pregnancies (up until week 39!) , and I truly believe it kept me in the best shape possible leading up to labor and delivery. It also helped my body get back into shape quickly afterward. What I love most is how I feel after every class. Even though I'm not breaking a huge sweat or doing an incredibly difficult workout, I leave feeling energized spiritually, mentally, and physically. My body feels amazing--completely stretched, lengthened, balanced, and harmonized from head to toe. It feels restorative and healing rather than exhausting, which I've come to love (especially as a marathoner). If you're looking for a hard, high-intensity, cardio-style Pilates class, this probably isn't that. But if you're looking for Pilates that grounds you, restores your body, helps you heal, and leaves you feeling genuinely GOOD, this is it.

The owner/teacher for the course, Stacey Vargas is so knowledgeable and skilled in the practice of Pilates. The staff at PISC is so wonderful, all of the instructors are so professional, educated, and helpful. The studio has such a friendly and community environment. I feel that the expertise that all of the instructors have here is invaluable. I highly recommend anyone interested in Pilates to take the private lessons here and the teacher training course for deeper knowledge of the art of Pilates.

I owe so much to Stacey and her entire pilates family for helping me get stronger both physically and mentally.

A friend recommended Tracy, and I'm so grateful she did. I had very little muscle tone left, and my body felt foreign to me. Although I had taken many Pilates classes before my diagnosis, I knew I needed to go back to the basics and work with someone who was experienced, patient, and compassionate. As a former fitness enthusiast, the thought of returning to a gym or a high-intensity exercise class felt overwhelming. My goal was to rebuild my strength, regain muscle, and improve my coordination. After my very first private lesson, I knew I had found the right studio. It has been amazing to see how quickly I've made progress. Tracy emphasizes proper form and technique over speed, ensuring every exercise is done correctly. Her extensive knowledge of fitness, movement, and overall wellness is an added bonus. Even the small group classes feel like private training sessions because of the individualized attention she gives each student. If you're looking for a Pilates instructor who is knowledgeable, encouraging, and genuinely invested in your progress, I can't recommend Tracy highly enough. She has played an important role in helping me feel strong, confident, and at home in my body again.

When I meet with her, I appreciate having her full attention and the way she personalizes my treatment plan.
