Pilates Studio City

So far so good. I took a Level 1 mat class here through ClassPass, and the studio was clean, well equipped, and inviting. I’ve only been to a handful of pilates classes so I wasn’t really sure what to expect with a Level 1 class but it seemed fairly easy and I didn’t really break a sweat… I know I wasn’t a master of any of the moves since my instructor was sweet enough to adjust me through several of the movements. I guess it’s a good class to take on a non-​cardio day, but definitely won’t burn calories or break a sweat. They seem to be pretty strict about knowing proper technique for movements so I will probably go back and try again until I can try a higher level class to see if I can feel out a good workout

The instructors are fantastic at Pilates Studio City! I have been going since they opened in Porter Ranch, and I have a neck again! My core is strong and i am standing tall.

I love the instructors here! They are very well trained and tailor their exercises to the areas where you need them most, even in group classes. My knee problems disappeared after doing pilates here even just 1 – 2 times per week. Everyone is friendly, the classes are small, and there is generally always one available when you need it. The front desk is very friendly, and the online scheduler is easy to use. The parking is not the best in that lot, but I’ve always found a spot. Jenny’s group reformer, Andrea’s jumpboard, and Shay’s DaVinci body board classes are all great and provide perfect variety during the week.

I’ve been going to the porter ranch location for a couple years off and on and i love it. The instructors are very helpful and super friendly! I love Pilates Studio City!

I love Pilates Studio City as a whole, but I have to say that my favorite location is the one in Porter Ranch. Everyone is friendly, classes are small, and the teachers are great at making accommodations for people who have injuries to a certain area. I have been going here for 3 to 4 years now, and I always feel like I get a great workout. I introduced my husband to pilates here, and he really enjoys it too.

What a beautiful studio! The front desk area is a wonderful welcome to this calm & peaceful atmosphere. I took Peter’s group reformer class and LOVED it! He was a very knowledgeable and motivated teacher. It was challenging and I was sore for days (in all the right ways). The space is clean and everyone is super friendly. I will definitely be back to try some of their other classes!

I can’t vouch for the other instructors, but Andrea’s mat Pilates class has become part of my workout routine for the last few months. I always feel the workout for the next day or two, with just about the right amount of pain. Her workout incorporates abs/​back (core), arms, and legs so that all get to «participate» during the hour. Not only does she provide detailed verbal instructions, she also physically demonstrates each exercise, and then walks around the room to provide individual corrections (which I seem to need more of than most people!). All in all, a great workout and I’m glad to have this in the neighborhood.

I did mat classes here for several months. Love this place, a great workout, pretty & well kept studio, and knowledgable instructors (although I would recommend trying out more than one to find a good fit). The parking is not the best. I would be still going there if we didn’t move!

This was my initial visit here but I knew this was the place for me as soon as I had stepped inside when I went to sign up for classes. Jenny was the one to sign me and worked with me on my initial workout and she couldn’t be nicer or more patient or more informative. You get a sense of how mellow it is when you step inside. It might sound corny but there’s just a general sense of peacefulness. If you’re seeking a place with a calm atmosphere this is the place for you. I don’t get a sense of being a gym rat — just a place for you to improve upon yourself and connect to your body and feel stronger. I’m looking forward to my next visit already.

This place is amassing, studio is very clean and welcoming, I tried all instructors, they are all wonderful and professional. Classes are small 3 – 5 people, therefore instructor can pay attention to you. I almost feels like a private lesson. love this place.

I’ve been to all 3 locations of PSC and I still can’t choose a favorite! The Porter Ranch location is clean and has a very open and welcoming feel. Their instructors are fantastic and are able to pay close attention to their clients (I have neck and back problems and often need help.) They know how to gently adjust people’s motions/​movement to get the best workout. You never feel like you’re one of a herd of people (like I did at LA Fitness) since the student/​instructor ratio is so small.
In short, I love this studio!!!

Anyone looking for a professional pilates studio, this is it. The staff is very knowledgeable, well trained and friendly. I have been to other studios and have had a myriad of instructors elsewhere, so I know what I am talking about. The private reformer sessions are customized to your body so it is nearly impossible not to see and feel the results. I went from a no-​pack, to a two-​pack, to a four-​pack and now I am working on the ever elusive six-​pack! It takes lots of hard work, but it is well worth the investment of time, money and energy. I’m hooked!

I discovered this great pilates studio through an awesome offer from groupon. I’ve taken two mat pilates classes now and they have been fantastic. The studio is very clean, well organized, and the staff is very friendly and helpful. I don’t have other studios to compare this to, but I now see why people pay to take classes at a studio instead of going to classes offered at the gym. It is a completely different experience and atmosphere.

I first purchased a GROUPON package for Matt Sessions back in September 2009. I had no idea I would stick around 7 months later What an absolute treat.
I really love this studio. I have noticed that all three instructors that I’ve worked with are excellent at educating you while they make you work your butt off. I’ve also noticed they are very good at telling you specifically what part of the body each exercise is good for and they are specific about what muscle part is benefiting. Everyone, even the receptionists, really show they care and they remember you. It’s a nice quaint studio and there are not too many people. You don’t get the feeling like you do not belong because everyone is different. The max for a matt class is 10 I think (you can call and ask) and just know that Janiene’s class on Tuesday nights is always packed but I go anyway — she is great.
My favorite instructors are Janiene, Roseanne and Kim. i’ve also experienced two other ones but I cannot remember their names and have only been to 1 class for each of them. Anyway I digress.
If you are looking for a nice challenging matt class for an affordable price, I suggest you purchase the 10 sessions for $ 100 package and go to Roseanne’s class on Thursday (she is so good — challenging and a great instructor — you learn a lot from her) and Kim’s on Fridays (oh my goodness she is the ab torture queen — she’s REALLY GOOD too). Roseann is really great at helping you with your form and introducing you to different exercises — she is really good at mixing it up and throwing new things out there that you would not have thought of or seen if you are new to Pilates.
I consider myself experienced in working with fitness instructors as an instructee. I’ve done bootcamp, cardio sculpt classes, cycling/​spinning, step, kickboxing, yoga — i truly love it all (I might not be like Angelina Jolee but I can hold my own in class!). I consider myself rather picky about instructors. I love that the instructors here are very good but they do not scream at you!!!
I have been going to this studio on a weekly basis since the end of September 2009 and I really love it a lot. They are all very good and teach the foundations of Pilates very well.
