I wish I could come here more frequently but the lessons/classes here are definitely more on the pricier side. Bomi did a good job listening to my concerns and helped me working on specific areas I was having issues with. I felt very comfortable with her. I noticed that a lot of the clients are Korean and even saw a classes led by a Korean speaking instructor. The space is clean and there are locker cubicles and a clean bathroom inside the space. I would definitely come here again if I feel like splurging on private lessons again.

The staff here have been very professional in providing instruction that meets my specific needs, and to supplement physical therapy.

Her ability to listen to my concerns and then watch my movements to help me strengthen weak muscles and relax tight muscles has been amazing. Her diligence has helped be ready to keep up with my first grandchild. Thank you Laurel and Balanced Energy Studio.

I usually take classes with Jinsol Bae, who is kind, attentive, and always tailors each session to the specific needs and abilities of the group.

It makes the experience feel very personal and almost like a private session. Highly recommend!

I was interested in joining their group Pilates classes, but I was told that I first had to…read morecomplete three private sessions, so I purchased a package of three sessions for about $200. I was actually really excited because I had always wanted to try Pilates. Unfortunately, my experience with the instructor was very disappointing. During my first session, she repeatedly made comments like, "You can't do that," "Your posture isn't good," and "Just try to do it like me." Since it was my first time doing Pilates, I expected more guidance, patience, and encouragement. Instead, I felt discouraged and uncomfortable throughout the session. I went back for the second session only because I had already paid for the package, but unfortunately, the experience was even worse. I felt uncomfortable for the entire hour and did not feel supported or encouraged at all. I still had one session left, but I ended up canceling it because I didn't want to put myself through another uncomfortable experience. I understand that she needed to correct posture and technique, but I think there is a big difference between giving constructive feedback and making a beginner feel discouraged. Unfortunately, this experience completely changed how excited I felt about trying Pilates.

They do fill up the entire class so the instructor isn't demonstrating how to do the moves, but she does walk around and correct form/help you transition. I appreciated this class was so much more focused on making sure you nail the basics because too many trendy studios try to "push" students do harder moves than their core is ready for. I already weight lift so I like Pilates to help me recover and practice good form (especially because I'm prone to not engage my core enough when I lift!). I'm sure their non beginner class is more challenging, but this was a perfect, restorative Saturday morning work out. I also liked the intro course because there were students from all age groups and no pretentious vibe that I've had at other studios where students judge if you're in aesthetic clothes or not (people ranged from cute fits to comfy gym clothes so you can totally do both here). Looking forward to coming back whenever I need a good recovery stretch and to perfect my core strength!

Two years later, I still look forward to my weekly sessions! Beyond the workouts, this studio stands out for its clean, organized, and welcoming atmosphere.

I paid for a membership based on that class and I figured all the "beginner" classes (Reformer 1) would be like that, but they absolutely were not. The instructors rarely go around the room fixing people's form. I was scared that I would injure myself on some of the more awkward movements. One of the instructors actually seemed to use the class as her personal reformer time and rarely ever actually instructed during my time in her group session. I had to ask which instructors were more beginner friendly after 2 bad experiences in what was supposed to be beginner level classes (reformer 1). The guy at the front was very helpful and did give me the names of two instructors who were known to be better for beginners, but they were not available the times I was. I think there's a real problem with a studio that does not have consistency across their reformer 1 classes. I ended up canceling my membership after 2 months, and I'm giving them 3 stars instead of 2 because the front desk was helpful and I was able to easily cancel my membership.
