The Dailey Method – Desert Ridge

This studio has a fresh and calming vibe, and just makes you feel good when you walk in. The Barre class that I took was excellent. The instructor was extremely knowledgeable and constantly walked around the room checking to make sure everyone’s posture/​movements were correct. The instructor was also welcoming to new students
Clean, clean, clean… how refreshing! I have been to several studios that have dirty equipment and carpet, but not The Dailey Method. l was shocked as to how well-​kept it was. They have a shower, towels that they don’t charge for, and they even let me borrow a pair of clean gripper socks today when I didn’t come prepared! I will be going back!

I have been going here for almost year and absolutely love the fun friendly staff and teachers. My body has become much stronger and more flexible because of Dailey Method!

I came to TDM looking for a new workout that would keep me coming back and I found it! It is a full body workout that challenges me both physically and mentally. The facility is fresh and clean and the environment is warm and welcoming. No 2 classes are the same, we are always learning new things and each class makes me want to come back and do better the next time! The owners are dedicated and caring and Tarra and the instructors are knowledgeable, enthusiastic and committed to helping you be your best! Thank you Dailey Method!

I started at Dailey Method about 5 months ago and didn’t know if it was going to be hard or not. I didn’t know if I was going to feel comfortable either with others that were more experienced than me or being looked at weirdly. I WAS WRONG!!! The first time I stepped foot into the building, I was greeted with smiles from everyone there. I felt comfortable right away! My first class was basics barre but it still wasn’t easy, in a good way. My brain and body were overwhelmed with all the exercises and information but in a way that I was addicted after the first time! I have never felt so good and determined after a work out and the desire to until now. All the instructions are so professional, helpful, caring and unique in their own special way! They are there to help you gain strength in your body and mind. I have grown so much stronger in the knowledge and guidance of my body and learn something new every time! No class is the same and the experience is so amazing and raw, you really feel apart of a family and team. I suggest everyone to try this at least once and tell me you aren’t hooked after the first class! You can be anyone or even have an injury like me (torn ACL) and still end up at the top! Stronger, wiser, and more fit then you ever thought you could be! Thank you to all the wonderful people (instructors and clients) that have made this time for me this far, an incredible one! Love, peace, Dailey!

DM changed my life! I have chronics back issues and had a double level back fusion. Years of PT never helped. I am a new person now! The environment is warm, friendly, and welcoming. I love that there are women of all shapes, sizes, and age groups there. I have made amazing friends over the past 2 years. It has changed my life in so many invaluable ways!!!

I first came to TDM looking to get my booty in shape for my wedding. But I immediately fell in love with this place! From the instructors to my fellow barre babes to the very welcoming environment this place is perfect!!! Not only have I seen a difference physically but mentally as well. TDM is the place I go to tone, tighten and clear my mind. If you’re reading this thinking whether or not to try it out… DO IT!!!

Dailey Method rocks! Not only is it a great, non-​impact workout, but it’s a warm, friendly, and welcoming environment. Instructors care about helping all students achieve success and balance. It’s a fun, diverse group of students, also. Having undergone back surgery, I’ve found that Dailey Method is the only exercise that builds my core strength without causing any lower back pain. Tarra continues to come up with informative, educational and — yes — fun activities that bring us all together as a group. Good times!

The most awesome barre studio in the valley. Caring owners, amazing instructors, gorgeous facility. Couldn’t ask for a better full body workout to stretch, tone and burn. Thank you Tarra for all your hard word, dedication and love.

I LOVE this place! There are many reasons I love this place… they are friendly, it’s clean, and you get an awesome workout! I highly recommend The Dailey Method! They’re always updating their classes and times which makes it VERY convenient for anyone’s schedule! The Dailey Method needs to be added to your list to check out for a good workout. Enjoy!

My absolute favorite way to exercise ever! It’s fun and each time I come the instructors change it up so it’s never exactly the same so there is no getting bored which was always a complaint of mine with others workouts. I totally recommend the Dailey Method to anyone. The instructors are all so helpful and friendly (Tarra, June and Jodi) and I enjoy my hour with them every time I go. I have noticed an extreme change in my body since starting in October and I am looking forward to seeing more changes in the future!

I’ve only been to 3 classes but I can honestly say that I can feel and see a difference in my body. This is unlike any other workout I’ve ever done and I love it!

I was so lucky to stumble across this place! I bought a groupon, as I’d taken barre classes before in FL, and was looking for a new studio in AZ. I’ve been to five classes and each time I’m impressed with the great instructors, the variety of the classes, and the clean dressing area. I would recommend Dailey Method to everyone, and have already signed up a friend.

I left a one star review for this business based on a situation that happened with the old owner of the company. The new owner of the company contacted me and let me know about the change in ownership. I tried to delete my one star review but was unable to do so. So I changed it to a five-​star because of the new owner’s communication and willingness to help with a problem that she did not have anything to do with. Thank you.

I love this studio! They offer classes at a lot of convenient times. The space is modern and clean. After an hour class you feel you have worked your whole body. The teachers are great, especially Sara, who is really helpful and makes sure you are doing them moves correct.

I’ve been going to Dailey Method since this past November. I have nothing but great things to say. The owner Dawn is one of sweetest people I have ever met. She goes above and beyond. She gives you a tour of the studio and introduces you to staff and customers. For not being from the area I really appreciated that.. All the instructors are nice and friendly. I love Caroline. Her classes are wonderful. I will be sore and tired for days after. It’s so worth it! They help you so much. I have never had such a wonderful experience. They also have daycare which is great. My son has a wonderful time.

Just wanted to thank everyone at Dailey Method. Everyone was friendly and helpful. The studio is clean, bright and quite large. Classes were great and the coaches very helpful. Dawn is a wonderful owner of a small business. She made sure she knew everyone name and always had a smile on her face. I was only there for a month visiting my daughter but had a great experience. I would highly recommend this to anyone wanting to try Dailey Method.

I’ve been going here for a couple of months and I enjoy it quite a bit. The studio is clean and bright, very inviting. Everyone I’ve interacted with here is very nice, the staff as well as the other customers. The times for the classes are convienent and I’ve been to both morning weekend classes and afternoon weekday classes.
The class itself is very challenging with small controlled moves designed to tone and create lean muscle. The instructors are good at adjusting you to make sure you are in the correct form. I do sweat in class and my muscles burn!

I took Dailey Method classes while visiting Phoenix recently and I was very pleased with the variation, instruction and intensity of the workouts… I was still feeling it in my tush 3 days later! I really enjoyed Bethany as an instructor because she pushes her students hard, is very good about correcting form and has a lot of energy.
I also got to take a class with Dawn, who is the owner, as well as another very knowledgeable instructor, with even more experience. She had very thoughtful cues with a great taste in music. During both classes, I really liked how we followed the same format, but seemed to do a completely different work out. We did everything from planks, to arm work using free weights for toning, to High C curves and Low C curves (one of many ways they target abdominals), to intense thigh work, great seat work (apparently they don’t say butt), and also incorporated stretching my tight muscles. There was a lot going on in that 60 minute class… perfect for someone with a limited attention span like me! They hit every muscle group and I definitely felt it during class and the next day. Bethany assured me that you build your knowledge each class, so it seems each work out is a more intense work out because you get a deeper engagement.
I really like that with both instructors I got very intense workouts but different moves and holds. I wish I lived in the area so I could come back for some more «seat» kicking from Bethany and some more of Dawn’s catchy tunes!

I saw this advertised through groupon and figured I would give it a try. That in itself was a break through. Group classes are out of my comfort zone. I have no coordination, can’t do two things at once, I’m shy, and have no tolerance for the Snobby people who typically hang out in group classes with their cliques. In any case, I did purchase and signed up for first class online (the online system is very simple to use, classes are listed by week, your attendance is logged).
I arrived for my first class which was a 5:45 class, i was nervous but excited. My first run in was with a snobby lady (a client) and I almost turned right around there. I decided against and went in — Dawn Hardas, the owner of this location was at the front desk and she was very welcoming. I filled out the paperwork, took a tour with Dawn and then waited for class to start.
The next hour flew by — we did small movements of contracting /​releasing muscles — in forms of yoga, pilates, barre, and orthopedic moves. This isn’t a cardio workout, but I certainly had my heart rate up at times. My body was also shaking and thought possibly I might die a few times. Dawn was very upbeat — kept the class moving and was engaged to ensure you were in the correct position.
I had purchased a 3 class package through groupon and once I had completed those classes I signed up for the new client unlimited month of $ 100 — which is an amazing deal since a regular class is $ 20. I went 8 times during my unlimited month — wish I could have taken advantage of more, but with the holidays I was lucky to get that many done. I have a bad lower back and need to keep my core muscles in shape — I wasn’t doing my physical therapy excercises at home and have found that this method is great. I have gone a total of 11 times over the past month and half and even with that inconsistency I have seen a major improvement in my strength, flexibility, and posture.
I have taken classes with almost all the instructors at this location and all of them are great. All upbeat, all helpful, they push you, but not in an obnoxious way. You paid for the classes, so they ensure you get what you paid for. They know somedays you are stronger than other days and you can work at different levels within each pose.
what is also great is that you are so focused on the excercises, the position of your body, etc that your mind is clear for an hour. I don’t think about work, chores, or anything during this time. I feel refreshed and amazing at the end of each class.
The studio is clean, bright, and new.
Just purchased another package and looking forward (yes looking forward) to my class tonight!
So give it a try — and come say hi to me — i won’t be snobby! ;)
