My daughter and I have been coming to Upgrade Pilates together for a while now, and it has honestly become one of our favorite things we do together. We started with private sessions, then moved to duets, and also take group classes -- and every format is fantastic. Irina is simply the best instructor we've ever had -- she has so much knowledge and experience, corrects our form perfectly, and makes every session feel personal. The results speak for themselves: we both feel stronger, more flexible, and more confident in our bodies. The studio itself is beautiful, spotless, and has such a welcoming vibe. If you're looking for a place to train with someone you love -- this is it. 10/10, no question! read more

I tried my first Pilates class and thanks to Phi it was a great experience! Phi is a knowledgeable and helpful teacher. Her instruction was clear and was in tune with the individual needs of the class. She was quick to provide additional help to those who need it. As someone who participates in a lot of physical activity, Phi made sure to challenge me in terms of both resistance and technical refinement. I highly recommend taking a class with Phi whether you're a beginner or if you are looking for someone to push you and help you build your strength, endurance, and range of motion. read more

What a treat we were in for when one of my colleagues who does take Moira's classes on the regular decided to book a private session for some of our team members. This adorable studio was tucked away in a plaza with so much parking. It's so clean inside, a bathroom, she even had water for us if we forgot ours. Our workout was an hour long and we definitely worked muscles we didn't even know we could make sore. Moira was so attentive to our form and we felt so well take care of for what felt like a VIP experience. I love Pilates so if you are local to the area this studio should be a must stop. Thank you so much for such a wonderful time to be connect and move our bodies! read more

I had been interested in getting back into fitness after several years but was nervous about joining a group class without much Pilates experience. But after my first session with Moira, I can't believe it took me this long. Moira is a great instructor, who is professional and always goes above and beyond in group class and private sessions. Now I come regularly, for private and group class, and have encouraged friends and family to join me as well. I can honestly say that Upgrade Pilates studio is my preferred studio, because it is smaller and gives me more one-on-one attention from the instructors. They are hands on with correcting form and ensure that the movements performed are not hurting us. The regulars in the class are great to workout with as well. It's fun knowing that we're all "going through it" together and the class gets a good laugh. Definitely recommend coming to this studio. read more

I have gone to 3 (reformer spine, sculpt reformer, jump) of moiras classes and she is wonderful! Her exercises are effective, challenging and yet super fun! She also is incredibly respectful when it comes to correcting. I've been to a couple of places where you can tell they do not care, but moiras approach and presence is opposite. Highly recommend taking her classes, especially jump In terms of the studio, I love the BB studio reformers as well as the props. Great quality equipment. The studio, including the bathrooms, is clean and open. The classes are quite pricey but given the instructors and equipment, it makes sense. Highly recommend especially if you have goals of really taking Pilates seriously. read more

I was looking for a place to get ready for my vacation and came across Upgrade Pilates studio and Bodytherapy in Laguna Hills, Orange County. After reading the reviews, I decided to give it a try. I tried both Reformer Pilates and Endosphere therapy, and I couldn't be more impressed with the results. After completing 12 sessions of Endosphere therapy, I saw a huge improvement in my skin texture and overall appearance. With my vacation coming up, I wanted to look and feel my best, and this combination really delivered. The fact that both Pilates and Endosphere therapy were available in one place made it so convenient. In just two months, I felt fantastic and vacation-ready! If you're looking for a great place to prepare for a trip, or just to enhance your wellness, I highly recommend this studio. The combination of Pilates and Endosphere therapy really works! read more

I've been going to group Pilates classes at Upgrade Pilates and Bodytherapy and just wrapped up their Endospheres course--I'm honestly shocked at how awesome the results are! The Pilates classes are the best Reformer classes; they've made me so much stronger and bendier than I thought possible. And the Endospheres treatment? Oh my gosh, it's the best lymphatic drainage massage ever--my skin's smoother, my cellulite's basically disappeared, and my legs look so toned. I feel healthier and way more confident now. If you want a spot that's got everything for feeling good inside and out, you've got to check this place out--I'm obsessed! read more

My friend brought me to my first class and pilates instantly drew me in. I go to every class with a pleasure and feel refreshed and energized after every session. I started receiving a toy of compliments saying I lost weight and I myself noticed that my body has toned down. I attened classes with both Moira and Irina and Irina and I enjoy them both. They explain and show everything in a way thats simple to understand and will always adjust and correct you if you do something wrong. This studio really improved my lifestyle habits. I would recommend it to anyone. read more

I've been trying different Pilates studios and recently discovered Upgrade Pilates. It's a boutique studio with only seven reformers, which makes the experience more personal and focused. The instructors are highly professional--they explain every exercise in detail, correct your form, and genuinely help you improve your body. I'm really enjoying this individualized approach! read more

I love Upgrade Pilates and Bodytherapy. I've started going a while back when Irina was the only trainer. She knows everything and more about pilates, body and muscles, is very passionate about all of these and put together a wonderful team. Besides Irina, I took classes with Moira and Stacy, both correct your posture if needed, tell you how to modify certain exercises if you have an injury. About 4-6 people in the class makes it easier for trainers to look after your form and avoid injury. I also enjoy endospheres therapy and cryoskin facial; saw improvement on my thighs (less cellulite), less water retention and puffiness, great feeling overall. Both Olesya and Yulia are great. read more

I started going to Upgrade Pilates after my second pregnancy, aiming to get back to my pre-baby shape, and it's been an incredible experience. The best Reformer classes I've been to. Irina's classes are simply the best, and she's awesome--super knowledgeable and great at pushing you with challenging sessions that really work. Moira and Staci are fantastic; they're skilled and bring a lot of fun to the sessions, but I personally love the intensity of Irina's classes. Every class leaves me feeling energized, balanced, and closer to my fitness goals. It's amazing how quickly the time passes--50 minutes feels like 15! In addition to Pilates, I also completed a course of 12 Endospheres treatments, and it was life-changing! It's the best lymphatic drainage massage, and it really helped me shed those extra pounds after childbirth. It also dramatically improved the condition of my skin. If you're looking for the best Pilates workout and additional body treatments, Upgrade Pilates is the go-to place. Highly recommend! read more

Irina is the best Pilates trainer! I really like how detailed her postures' explanations are.

Eight months ago, I discovered Upgrade Pilates studio. I had never done Pilates before, but I am so glad I found this perfect type of sport for me. Attending evening classes with Stacy, I always feel invigorated and filled with new energy and strength. Pilates is never dull, each session brings something new. Recently, I decided to try Endospheres Therapy at the same studio. After just six sessions, I've seen definite improvements - my legs look smoother and firmer. I also noticed that all the swelling has gone. Combining Pilates with this Endospheres massage therapy is such a great idea. It's perfect! read more

I purchased a a 12-session Endospheres Therapy at Upgrade Pilates. Did a quick comparison between packages available at other places and Upgrade Pilates offered the best price. My therapist Yulia was very sweet and skillful. Will definitely come back for maintenance sessions. read more

I highly recommend Irina's Pilates class, it is wonderful! She is very attentive and always makes sure you do each exercise correctly, and engage all muscles that should be engaged. The very first intro class included body assessment which helped to understand the needs. Time always flies by at this beautiful, clean and spacious studio. I've been coming here two times a weeks for about 3 months, but I already see, and, what's even more important , feel the difference. read more

I had an amazing experience with Upgrade Endospheres studio. The place is very clean , the staff is very knowledgable and friendly - they explained me all the benefits of Endospheres in details. I had 12 treatments with Olesya and she is amazing ! I am a runner so was doing the Endospheres to help me to relieve my muscle tension after long runs and work outs and to get a lymphatic drainage and some relaxation. It also provided me with additional benefits of smooth skin without any cellulite on my legs ) I simply love the feeling after this massage! I recently ran a marathon (26.2 miles ) and recovered in 2 days - did 2 sessions of Endospheres which helped to relieve extreme tension in my legs muscles and was ready to run another marathon))Doing my maintenance treatments 2 times a month right now and am very happy with results. read more

Irina is an awesome and her studio is gorgeous. She's incredibly attentive to small details, and takes the time to get to know your body with an intro class when you first join her studio. Irina is also so sweet and goes the extra mile to make sure that you're working the parts of the body you want to, and that the routine is working for you. I have a wrist injury right now and was worried that I would have to take some time off from group pilates, but instead she took the time and effort to accommodate for my injury, modifying/personalizing some of the exercises so that I could still do them with the rest of the class. Before Covid I'd been doing Club Pilates for about a year - Irina's classes are completely different. She focuses much more on form, making sure you're engaging the right muscles and correcting alignment issues. The muscles we work are deeper and more internal, and I've noticed that it's making my body leaner vs Club Pilates which tended to made my muscles bulk up. I am really impressed with Irina's level of care, attention and expertise. I will definitely be staying with this studio! read more

I have been taking private Pilates lessons with Staci for about a year and a half and I cannot say enough good things about her! She is always upbeat and stresses proper form. She helps me open up my back after I sit all day at work. I had never taken Pilates before this and she has made this a great experience for me. read more

Love Upgrade Pilates and all the ladies who work here!! I've been wanting to try pilates for awhile, started beginning of this year, and now I'm addicted where I have to go at least 3 times a week! Training with Rachael is the best! Super awesome, knowledgeable, accommodating, etc. She's helped me with strength and stretching. I feel way better, leaner, and healthier. It's also a way to clear my mind! This studio is cute, clean, and doesn't give that overcrowded vibe like other studios. read more

So far so good! I purchased a first private lesson with Rachael who helped me get acquainted with the equipment. Then purchased a new client package to try a few classes. I've only taken one class with Moira and I loved it. I appreciate that this establishment didn't try any pushy sales gimmicks like one of their franchised competitors. My sore body is a testament to their effective lessons and I am excited to see results. I like that this place has a few reformers and that the guidance is focused for each client. Their prices are listed on the website and schedules are easy to find. I will be purchasing a membership very soon! read more

I am thrilled that I discovered Endospheres treatment for myself at Upgrade Pilates! The procedure itself is very pleasant, non-invasive, and reminds me a massage session.
