Pilates near Lafayette

“Kelly is truly the very best of the best. I have been seeing her for over a year now for support in my postpartum experience as well as in my second pregnancy. Her office is serene and the minute you walk in, you are instantly at ease. I initially booked a private Pilates session and in our talk prior to getting started, we pivoted and did an acupuncture session to address my underlying concerns. Kelly took the time to hear what I needed in that moment and, without hesitation, made the change. Kelly has supported me in my hardest moments of postpartum and pregnancy and I truly cannot imagine life without her anymore.“

“I have been taken class for over three years. Love the positive energy each class brings to me .all the instructors are amazing.“

“I never thought I would be interested in Lagree, let alone excited to return to a class because my body was so sore. But CBfit has a new teacher, Nicolette Fisher; she talked to me about the classes and encouraged me to try them, and now I look forward to taking my next class with Nicolette. She has great music, really engages with everyone, and makes the class so much fun!“

“Check out Isabella's Yin and Sound healing classes. I have loved her energy and talents so much. Consistently good experience in any class or experience I've had with Isabella - thank you“

“The entire team at Rise PT are awesome! They provide excellent patient care and will always make you feel welcome. I have noticed big improvement since starting here.“

“Excellent gym, clean and well-run. I don't use their trainers--mainly I do my own workout on one of their Pilates reformers--but what I see them doing with other customers looks good.“

“I saw Dr. Ban after almost two weeks of debilitating pain. Before Dr. Ban it was urgent care and Dr. visits, all resulting in the offer of pain meds and time to feel better. After one visit to Dr. Ban I felt hope and at least 50% better. Within a week I felt like I could do basic tasks again and within a week more I had graduated to maintenance care with full movement again. I will continue to see Dr. Ban because I believe she has my best interests in mind. She shows integrity in her care and in the frequency she recommends. She listens to me and is excellent in finding the cause of pain. I went to see Dr. Ban originally out of necessity. Now I see her to maintain a level of personal care I was lacking and I look forward to continuing.“

“Ive been taking Pilates once a week for almost 2 years now at Reactive Movement. It’s been an excellent experience and I definitely feel stronger, more aligned and balanced. The instructors are great and a special shout out to Jaclyn who gives amazing instruction and always changes up our weekly class and keeps it interesting. I always feel mentally and physically better after my class.I also love the vibe at the studio, very mellow and all the equipment is modern, kept clean and well maintained.“

“LOVE Vita!! It's literally the only place I've found in the area with both great workout classes and affordable childcare. The teachers lead with kindness and encouragement and my toddler loves playing with the childcare providers. Cannot recommend enough!“

“Best results I’ve gotten from any other experience! I went in for an anti-aging treatment. My main issue has always been dark spots on my face—I’ve even been turned away by a Kaiser dermatologist! This is the first time I’ve seen results and it was instant! Moreover, she has educated me on how to continue to lighten my dark spots. My jaw area had also been tightened. I don’t have the photos to share but she does take a before and after photo for you to see. I wholeheartedly recommend satisfying your curiosity!“

“I was pleased that the space was clean and other long time members were very happy with their results. As well as the instructors. Im excited to join!!!!!!“

“I have been working with Sarah at Precision Point Pilates for about 3 weeks now, twice a week. A short period of time but already I know I hit the jackpot of Pilates trainers! Not only does Sarah know which exercises I need, she also knows anatomy and can explain the placement of bones and muscles and how they work together. This helps me visualize what I am doing and why. This is especially important for me as I am still recovering from a shoulder joint replacement surgery.I didn't think I could ever take reformer palates again after my surgery, but Sarah proved me wrong. I look forward to getting stronger as I continue my training so I can keep up with my very active adorable grandchildren!“

“I have taken Pilates for several years but this was my first time at this studio. I took a private with Rebecca who is a first class teacher. She understands body mechanics extremely well. I have signed to take weekly classes from her I highly recommend her!“

“Love everything about this yoga studio! The lobby/shop is so inviting and the merch is all gorgeous (books, crystals, pillows, clothes, jewelry, tarot cards, beautiful handmade gift cards). The teachers are excellent and care about form and watch the students to help them improve.“

“This is a professional pilates practice at a warm and welcoming home studio. I was delighted to choose Empilates last month while I was on holiday in the bay area, and attended 3-4 classes. Back home in Singapore I go for pilates and ballet barre classes 2-4x a week and have worked with several instructors over the years. I usually look for boutique/niche experiences and expert, experienced instructors with a loyal following. (From Yelp) I was pleased to find this with Emily, who was knowledgeable, patient, kind and very clear. Her repertoires flowed well and caters to a range of abilities. She also recommended me instructors in NYC and Singapore. Thank you Emily, I hope we meet again.“

“Tiffany has changed my life! I have been seeing her every week for almost four years. When we started, I had been recently diagnosed with a chronic illness that makes exercise challenging. I was out of shape and any movement was hard for me. Tiffany was compassionate, patient, and incredibly skilled at adapting the exercise to my abilities. Without her sessions, I would probably be bedbound. Instead, my body is strong and constantly getting stronger. Our sessions have continued online due to COVID, and I am astonished at how well Tiffany has adapted to video calls. Somehow, she always knows my positioning, even when my whole body isn't in the camera frame, and she can coach me through the exercises with minimal equipment. I tried a range of different exercises before getting sick, but Pilates with Tiffany has been my favorite, despite my limitations. I've never had a coach so understanding, skillful, and knowledgeable. I would give a 1000 star review if I could!“

“If you want the best in Pilates, this is your place. Too many pilates classes are taught by untrained instructors. Carolyn was trained by one of the original pilates teachers. She meets you where you are and works with you. She's smart & charming and unlike so many storefront pilates places, she knows the human body. She keeps you flexible and in shape. You won't find anyone better.“

“This review is very long overdue. I first had a massage at Shape Shifters earlier this year, then started attending yoga, and then a special combo treatment (we would do some body work and some physical movement). Terra helped me SO much .. I was/am healing from a few car accidents, and her super knowledge of the body was a huge asset to me. I had been "out" of working out for a very long time because of my accidents, and with Terra's guidance, gradually got back into yoga earlier this year, and now am happy to say that despite moving across the country and no longer being able to attend Shape Shifters, I'm able to do yoga poses I was unable to do before, and in the gym lifting weights! I cannot tell you how huge this is for me - and I really credit Terra for a big part of the shift I needed to get here. She is incredible! And supported by great masseuses as well. Also love the creams she has. I would recommend her and the studio to anyone looking for a supportive environment to work out (yoga or pilates) and/or who needs body work... and especially to anyone who was like me and wanted a combination of those things! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!“

“I love taking yoga classes at Symmetry. The space is big and beautiful and welcoming. Plenty of parking, too. So glad they're offering online classes currently. Anne Gregory's classes are the absolute best!! Simultaneously challenging and restorative.“

“Looking for a welcoming, peaceful pilates studio with small classes and real individual attention? This is the studio for you! I've been coming here for a few months, and Gaby Diskin is an experienced and hands-on instructor focused on body strengthening and fun exercise. Great location too.“

“I've been getting facials with Chris for over a year now and I couldn't be happier to have her in charge of my skin care! Chris is knowledgeable in dealing with many different skin issues (acne, dark spots, dry skin) and I always walk out of her studio with that "snatched" face look. I love that Chris is always bringing the latest technology into her studio, now offering micro-derm and micro-current treatments. I feel like my skin has never looked better!“

“Sorry forgot photos but my experience was excellent. Had two classes so experiences two instructors... Lori and Lauren. Both were kind, dynamic, managed multiple skill levels at the same time. I really like the studio on Ashby... Seemed clean, light filled. They had loaner grip socks, which was nice and also an espresso machine for a free latte. There is some local parking for two hours.about $42 per class.“

“Naomi is dedicated, knowledgable, and will help you reach your goals through knowing your body and pushing you to grow in your capabilities!“

“Great studio, great menu of classes to take, and some awesome teachers including Kay and Moses. Very well run and managed by Dash and his team. A special shout-out to Danielle's Inferno Hot Pilates class which is incredible. Danielle is such a talent. She's funny and entertaining while really pushing her students to give their very best. A great teacher for any level of practitioner, she is able to make a special connection with each and every student. Highly recommended all around.“

“This place is awesome. I am not a fan of even the idea of trying something out of my norms but my wife (regular attendee) told me to give it a shot. I did so and enjoyed every session I had. Unfortunately I have been too slammed to make it consistently. But, the teachers, staff, training, and outcome is all there! I highly recommend this location and this experience.“

“I found it! I was looking for a boutique gym that had all the serious resistance training equipment and knowledgeable trainers, yet also some quieter spaces for individual workouts, and maybe some group classes. I wanted a certain “feel” that wasn’t meat-head centric, yet serious about working out. I wanted clean, inviting, and professional, yet kind and personable. Well, I got all of that and more at RISE. In additional to the weight training and group classes, they have several personal trainers to choose from, massage therapists, chiropractic care, sauna and cold plunge use. Their prices are very reasonable and the parking is easy. The front desk staff are always upbeat and kind. And if you’re lucky enough to see Diane, she’ll likely great you by name; every time. I did my homework, I looked at several gyms in the Bay Area, and I am happy to say I have found my place (and my personal trainer, Gernard, and massage therapist, Taylor - they are both amazing!!). I highly recommend RISE.“
