The only reason I stay with this studio is because of Carly! Her instructions are clear and her positivity is infectious.
She’s the best !

NOT REAL PILATES Just another studio trying to make money with expensive classes. They don’t care how you breath or the proper alignment or even if you doing the exercises right. Just another business trying to make money Calling it Pilates.

I can’t say how grateful I am to have found I Heart Fitness! As a professional dancer with a degree in dance performance and thorough knowledge in anatomy and kinesiology it’s a breath of fresh air to have Pilates instructors in Los Angeles who are as qualified as the I Heart instructors are. Lindsay’s class is everything a Pilates class should be: challenging, mindful, informative, fun, safe, and inspiring. I practice yoga, HIIT training, spin, and dance regularly and I consider I Heart Fitness to be a requirement for my weekly training. The front desk staff is also friendly and quick. Thank you for bringing such attentiveness to Pilates in Los Angeles!

I have to knock off 1 star only because I am now a Pilates snob and hate wooden reformers. (Every studio should invest in the Allegro 2 reformers). Minus the reformers (although for wooden ones, they are the best I’ve used) this is a great studio! They combine Pilates, weights, and barre for a full body workout.
Sloan is my favorite instructor. She’s definitely one of the most challenging instructors I take for Pilates period and she makes class fun and go by quickly. If you want to burn calories and sculpt your body, this is the place to be!
The location is easy to miss because it’s in a small shopping center, but they do have a parking lot (ground floor and roof) and also ample street parking nearby as well.
Oh, and they’re on ClassPass which is great since you’re getting a way better deal for your money.

I have been to a lot of Pilates studios and this has to be my favorite one in the valley! All of the instructors that I have had class with are great. Plus, you won’t get bored here. They always mix up the routine. Besides the reformer, you might just work out on the mat, barre or use the spring board. I’ve always gotten a full body workout here, with results to prove it.
You can park in the lot on top of the building. Street parking and meters are also available. I’ve never had trouble trying to find a spot. So, that’s a bonus!

From the first class I was IN LOVE. I only took 3 classes here due to a botched groupon redemption on my end, but even with just 3 classes I was blown away. I only ever took the basic class with Rula, but they were TOUGH! You definitely get your money’s worth with these workouts, which is good since the regular price for these classes is not cheap. The classes are a mix of pilates on the reformer and on the mat/​bar. All the exercises work you hard and the class sizes are small enough that you can get individual attention to make sure you’re doing them right. They require you wear socks and I didn’t see any spares for if you forget them so make sure to remember them. (If you really are in a pinch they do sell toesox.) And they have a parking lot! If you are looking for a workout that will actually make you work, this is the studio for you!

Hands down the best and most challenging Pilates studio I have been to. In the past few months since I have been attending the classes, my body has gotten stronger, leaner and more toned. As a non morning person, it’s the only studio I will go to at 6am, beacause I leave feeling charged and amazing.
Each of the instructors are great, and have their own approach to the training. I have taken classes with Lindsay, Sienna, Guy, and Quinn (all awesome) but I have a soft spot for Sara’s (the owner) classes in particular. She will have you begging for mercy, and then begging for more.

I love my new Pilates studio! Parking can be an issue sometimes (depending on the time of your class) but as long as you get there early, you can usually find a spot no problem. The classes are great (a mix of reformer and barre) and the instructors are ah-​mazing! I am always excited to go to class, and I can really tell a difference in my body and muscle tone since I joined!

Tiny studio that focuses on form and strength, it’s surprising how sore and sweaty you get. :). There is plenty of parking up top and the music is fun but low enough that you can hear all the instructions and checks to your form. My new favorite place to get sweaty! Though I wish Carly taught early so I could take before work — she is the BEST!

Never thought I’d take a Pilates class. I grew up competing skateboarding & surfing. I run regularly, and weight train 4 days a week. Always looked at Pilates as girly and not a sort of fitness régime that’s compatible with me.
I was wrong. This girl, Sierra, kicked my ass. By the time I left I was drenched in sweat, hit some supporting muscles I didn’t even know existed, and I felt great. Will be back again, this place is great.

My instructor, Rula, was amazing! She was super informative, understanding and motivating. I took their Basic Control Method class and it was challenging but not impossible. It’s definitely more intense than other basic/​beginner pilate reformer classes I’ve taken, but you will be ok! Be prepared for quick transitions and utilizing the most out of your reformer!

This review is long over due, since I’ve been taken classes here for over a year. I stated last June with their $ 99 first time client unlimited month. I took a class everyday within my trial. What I am still confused about is are they a pilates studio or barre?! I’ve realized it depends on the instructor, my problem is I don’t like barre classes. So every time I’d go there, I would take a chance on whether or not I would like my work out. Looking at all these 5 star reviews it makes sense why people like them. But I won’t be coming there anymore, not knowing if I’ll do barre or pilates. Otherwise it is clean and well equipped. It would be helpful if they specify the details for each class.

I came here with classpass and took a Friday class with Guy. This was my first pilates class and I was really intimidated but by the end I wasn’t nearly as nervous. He kept the energy really high and corrected my form when necessary. I was sore for a few days after class and am looking forward to returning!

I just took my first ever reformer class with Rula. I love that she utilized both the barre and the reformer. She was so great at explaining what to do and how to use everything. And she was super accommodating of my problematic knees. I left the class dripping in sweat and super happy. I’ll definitely be back. And at $ 15 for your first class and $ 99 for your first month, it’s a steal.

I’ve been doing Pilates FOR YEARS and am currently getting certified — I can definitely say that I have tried many studios (and I am dedicated to one particular instructor) but I love to switch it up once in a while to see what else is out there…
I can say Guy Woodson nailed it and I literally wake up on the days of his class in utter excitement. He has great energy (as did the studio) and I was really impressed with his utilization of the studio (reformer, mat, and spring board) — not to mention he will make you SO STRONG.
UPDATE:
I’ve been taking his class for over 2 months now and I have seen so much growth in my strength — he’s amazing!

Just walked in to this place to ask about their classes and to ask advice as to which instructor may be a good fit for me as I have some chronic neck/​shoulder problems. The receptionist, looked put out, scrunched her face and looked at me like I had eight heads. I was caught off guard and asked if it was odd to ask a question and she said snottily «uh, yeah, kinda, but go ahead». I excused myself said never-​mind and left. So embarrassing for me and rude of her. As I got into my car I looked into their front window as she then, threw another snotty look my way, and (to add insult to injury) appeared to discuss what just happened with a woman waiting to go into class. Wow!!! All that for asking to ask a question!!! Sheesh. It’s too bad because I had heard good things about this place. However, if she is the person chosen to be the first representation of the company, I will pass. There are a million Pilates classes in LA.

Love!
I’ve been looking for a reformer class that really utilizes the reformer in full range of motion. A lot of reformer classes I have gone to just felt like squats, grand piles and calf raises while laying down — that’s great if you are injured, but otherwise, you can do those things standing. What I love about the reformer is getting the feet in those straps and working resistance in full range and in circles vs. straight lines. This class nailed it.
Also in other reformer classes I’ve tried, it felt like it took 5 minutes for everyone to set up the next complicated move, then we do the same move FOREVER and then other 5 min to switch. This class felt more flowy — easy transitions to each exercise to keep your heart rate up.
Some reformer classes feel bootcampy — this felt more balanced. It’s a TOUGH workout, but it felt like I was working all my muscles evenly, not just torturing a few until there’s so much lactic acid my limb feels like it’s going to fall off.
I took the 7:30 with Guy — great cues corrections.

These classes are tough and fast paced, so if you are looking for a hard reformer workout, this is a great place to try. Though, if you are new to reformer work, or working out in general, even the beginner classes are very fast paced and hard, and you should be aware of that before trying. That is one of my complaints, that I didn’t see any difference in a beginner to the advanced class. And some teachers were definitely better skilled than others. I recommend Sara, Carly, Quinn and Guy.

Holy Moly — Jelly Arms and Legs for the win! Erm, if you have NO idea what I’m talking about — then obviously you haven’t visited i heart fitness xo with Sara and her staff. I had the fortunate chance to take an intro class with Sara for a fundraiser for Joy B.
After an intense 55 minute class that consisted of working on abs (as a warm up, yes a frigging warmup), arms with the wall/​mat apparatus + barre for some leg work, and then onto the medieval torture contraption, i mean, the reformer for some stretches and leg work. Holy batman, drenched in sweat and with a smile on my face — we were done and jelly arms and legs. Sara is so awesome — she walks around adjusting each student’s form to make sure we’re not cheating ourselves. :) Also, she talks you through each set of exercises. My butt quivers, as I type up this review. heh.
I thought I wouldn’t be that sore, but haha, my arms and back reminded me the next day. Try squatting after a class, i dare you.
This studio is small, but totally clean, plenty of water, and just plain awesome. I can’t wait until I return. I heart fitness xo, indeed! :)
$ 15 for the first class. If you buy packages, it totally gets cheaper — either bundles to use within a month (no rollover) or bundles to use with no expiry date. Special deal — $ 99 for the first month. woot
Side note: WHY DID I NOT BUY THE DEAL OFF GILT!!! grr. well i’ll be on the lookout for deals (hint, hint!)

Kick ass ass kicking work out. I’ve taken a lot of classes in my day, but Sara really showed a sister what’s up when it comes to making your legs shake, booty ache, and arm muscles quiver. From the mat portion to the reformer, my body wanted to hide like a punk, but Sara made it face its fears and get down and dirty with some serious sweat-​inducing moves. She had a great play list and attitude, making the experience fly by. And with a stellar deal of $ 99 first month for new clients (unlimited) or $ 15 for the first class, it’s no reason they’ve got a following who truly hearts fitness.
