Just had a private session with Daniel and I feel so great. He kept me flowing and worked all the right muscles. Great spot, Joe would be proud!

Had a GREAT springboard class with Devika. It was a full class and she still took the time to walk from person to person making corrections, helping us, etc. in a non-​judgemental way which was great for me as I’m fairly new to Pilates. I do spin/​yoga/​circuit training most days out of the week and still had a really hard and worthwhile workout.

Used to offer a great variety of mat classes and great instructors, now they decided they are only going to offer the much more expensive reformer and springboard classes with 3 – 5 spots to reserve instead of 10 for mat. If you want mat classes, they’ve outsourced them to a yoga studio that isn’t nearly as nice, and at odd hours (because they have yoga classes at all the times you’d actually want to go).

I took Reformer with Cynthia on Saturday afternoon with my ClassPass. There are only 3 reformers, and that day only one other student showed up, so there was a lot of personal attention, which I love. The instructor was great and offered a lot of form corrections, and I had a good workout. It’s a very small studio, though, so the class availability is limited, but I will probably be back!
Benjamin’s class is also solid, and only 3 out of 6 students showed up, so a lot of personal attention.

Very small but cute studio. Definitely geared more toward neighborhood as there is no shower. I took a springboard class and it was just OK. Aside from a sequence or two it was a very moderate level of exertion. Didn’t break a sweat. Not for beginners though, as there was virtually no instruction. She didn’t mention much about pelvic floor or spine and let a lot of really bad form go unchecked.
All in all, a good place to use the equipment if you live close and already have a strong pilates foundation, otherwise not worth it.

I bought a livingsocial deal– 5 mat classes for $ 30 and thoroughly enjoyed the mat classes. Its a cozy small clean studio with 10 people max per class so there is always individual attention. The mat teachers are warm and very pleasant.
I would recommend it for beginners or intermediates. I found the mat classes very easy, but have done a lot of pilates and dance in my life… It was still worth it though.
Good crowd in the morning 7am classes.

Small studio, cool instructors. I took «Mat: Tough Enough», which was a really easy class. It’s best for those who have never taken Pilates before. We didn’t use the equipment you see pictured in the photos, but I did get to see a personal training session where they used those. That looked kind of interesting and offered more of a targeted workout, I think. There’s a very calming, zen feeling to the studio and instructors, which I liked.

Signed up using my Classtivity pass. This might have been a full class for them even though there was just a few of us in class. About 7 or so. The instructor Devika welcomed me. The entrance is right in the classroom, no reception desk or anything. Basically the format follows a It’s the ground level of a residential building. The heat was blasting so that’s probably how it doesn’t bOther people. Class was slow moving which was nice.
They offer springboard and reformer classes as well as the mat class I took. Spring board first time fee is $ 10 and mat is $ 5.

This was my first encounter with Pilates. I was a walk in after being ten minutes late to my yoga class up the block at east yoga. Determined to work out that day, I walked in and signed up for the next class. The guy there was very nice and friendly and allowed me to wait for a spot even though the class was completely booked online. They have a new student deal where the first mat class you take is 5 bucks.
The studio was clean, but on the small size. There were 10 spots available for this class and there were only six people in this class and I felt like there was just enough space between us so that we weren’t cramped. I wonder what it would del likewise with a «full» class.
The class, burn baby burn, burned my muscles into jello. At one point I jut wondered what would happened if I would just lay there because I honesty couldn’t lift myself off the mat. It was intense and worth it. The type of class that makes you sore for days… and love it.
I am definitely going back for more.

This place is a cute, intimate studio. I was surprised that you literally walk into the studio itself right when you enter and it reminds me of a nice, airy calm house. That is, if any of my friends had houses in New York and that is if they could afford not to cram it with all of their possessions, but I digress…
I took the 7am class here last Friday and it was a great, calming way to start the day. There were only 2 of us in class so I got a lot of personal attention from the instructor. There are plenty of stretches dispersed throughout the class, which was nice to prevent muscle soreness. And omg the foam roller at the end… my back was in heaven!
With regards to facilities, mats, bands, the aforementioned foam roller are all provided. Just bring yourself, your workout clothes, a water bottle and towel. There’s a changing area in the back and a restroom behind the studio, but no showers. I wish I knew this before scheduling my big meeting at 9:30am that day… ah well, a note for the future!

Sixth Street Pilates is clean, small and intimate. It’s been a while since I last took pilates, mainly due to the instructor rattling off a class like it was his/​her tenth one of the day. But at this studio, I felt energized, challenged, and appreciative that the teacher was seeing and responding to who was in the room. I enjoyed Amy’s 12:30 class, although she says that all the teachers there are excellent.

I love Sixth Street Pilates. I go to the Y on 14th street where Allison DeVane teaches on Thursday nights. Unfortunately I can’t really attend her classes at the Y anymore so I followed her to the studio. I have had 3 teachers so far: Allison, Anula, and Devika. All have different teaching styles and class structures but they are all great. They always give harder pose options… and the classes are small enough where you can’t hide and have to work hard! The teachers all remember names and are conscious about injuries. Great teachers, very clean space, and great classes.

I really like it here. They are serious about Pilates without the pretense. The classes are small so you get individual attention. When I screw up or daydream through instructions, the teachers discretely correct me without making me feel like I’m the worst in the class. I love that I can actually get a reservation the day before, unlike most small Pilates studios. The place in impeccably clean, quiet and peaceful and the instructors are all super nice and personable.

Upon entering the space, I didn’t realize I just walked into someone doing private training, but there was nowhere else to go because you are in the class floor once you walk in. There are cubby holes for your shoes & hooks for your coat. There’s also another room where the pilates machines are, as well as the bathroom. The space is clean. Make sure to bring your own mat to lay on top of theirs. It’s more hygenic this way. Jeremy taught our class of 12 ppl. It was a bit cramped but everyone was able to do their workout. We used the yoga bricks & balls to aid in our workout. Jeremy did go around helping people adjust their positions. It was a good beginners workout. Not intimidating at all, which is a plus. Overall, it was a decent workout at a clean space.

Sixth Street Pilates is a really cute pilates studio. When I arrived, I wasn’t expecting how small the space would be, and you literally enter into the studio itself. However, Jeremy, the owner, is the nicest guy ever. He checks you in on his ipad while you can put your shoes in the cubbies and hang you coat on the hooks along the wall.
I was new to his studio (and pilates itself) and even though there was about 12 of us in the class, he remembered my name and helped me make adjustments to ensure I was doing the positions correctly. Though the class I took was for beginner/​intermediate, it was just challenging enough that I felt a workout, but not so difficult that I felt intimidated or like I was falling behind. We didn’t use any props, only body weight, and I felt great after the class.
If I lived closer, I’d definitely return.

I thoroughly enjoy this studio! I think the teachers are really great: there is a lot of passion and knowledge here. The studio is clean, equipment new, the class always has a focus and hits all the right notes. I am glad I found this gem, I had almost given up on some of the Pilates studios in the city. Oh and the value is unparalleled.

I love this place. I always leave Sixth Street Pilates feeling like I got a thorough and safe workout. Like some of the other reviews mention, it is a small studio and when classes are really full, you can be close to your neighbor. But the instructors are great and push you just hard enough to really strengthen without hurting your body. I’ve taken private sessions and mat classes. They recently installed springboards, and I’m looking forward to taking a springboard class soon.
I’ve done other types of workouts where you end up feeling like you want to die after every class. I never feel that way when I leave Anula’s class — only happy that I motivated to get off my couch and make it in. You are going to strengthen your core, improve your balance and flexibility, and tone your booty, arms and legs which is what I’m looking for from a Pilates studio.

I started going here on a lifebooker deal and have continued going ever since.
The studio is laid back enough to not be intimidating but serious enough to really focus on strengthening your body. I love to come to classes with Kathryn and Anula. Each teacher has a different style but I have not yet been disappointed.
The class sizes are small, the flow is good, and I feel refreshed after every class.

This is a great studio. I have taken mat classes with Kathryn, Anula, and Matthew, and I think they’re all great teachers. I like when teachers correct me, but it makes me super nervous when teachers get all up in my space and if they are not nice — I will forget left from right, and I just kind of go blank til they get out of my grill! So needless to say, these guys are perfect for me because they correct in an encouraging, mellow way. I personally do pilates to stay in shape, to stretch, and mostly for vanity purposes. The results are awesome and in the places where I need results! When I do cardio, it just makes me super hungry and then I pig out and then the whole thing is a bust. Anyway, if you don’t dig this studio, pilates may not be right for you in general, because it seems to me that they have a good thing going here.
I recommend this place and in San Francisco I like Core Pilates on 17th. It has a very similar vibe, also very nice teachers.

I took an intro class here that was laughably easy, with too much focus on toys and props and too little exertion. I had only ever done yoga and «yogalates» before, which was way harder than this silly class! It was taught by a very friendly, well-​meaning young woman who just seemed unprepared. I asked her afterward if she could explain the aims of pilates, and she mumbled something about «imagery» that did not match the experience I’d just had at all. I wanted to like this place because I live nearby, but no luck.
