Pilates near Waxhaw

“First time birthday experience enjoyed every minute. Price but if I could I would. Thank for the free class“

“What an amazing experience working with Ana! She has a wonderful bedside manner, clear and compassionate advice, and is incredibly empowering. I wasn’t sure what to expect but she made me feel right at home. Loved the physical instruction and mindset work that we covered. I’d highly recommend her.“

“I have been doing Pilates for 7 years and it has transformed my mindset for body strength. Each and every class is different and engages the core in different ways. Every instructor I have taken classes from brings solid expertise and body awareness to teach us PROPER movement to give us the best strength through movement plus protecting us from moving incorrectly preventing injuries. I highly recommend Michelle who actually teaches the Masters Classes - she is patient, knows the technical aspect, and as a student of Pilates I want to move through each series with precision so I get the mind-body connection needed for strength, growth and physical fitness. There is not one instructor I would not take a class from here at South Providence or Strawberry Hill- these instructors are some of the best in the business!!“

Love the club, not the cost.

I've been working out at various gyms, aquatic centers, and the YMCA for years. While they all have great equipment for solo workouts, I needed something more to push past my plateau. Life Time's early morning (5:45 am) weight-lifting classes, led by Vickie and Stacey, and Lakshmi's Ashtanga yoga sessions have been fantastic for this. Their curated playlists are a nice touch too. ???

However, after being laid off, I tried to switch to a single adult membership since my family primarily uses another gym. I was disappointed to find that the Waverly location is now "signature only," meaning the cost for just myself would be nearly the same as my OG two-adult membership at $260/month. This is frustrating as I haven't used a single signature feature in my five years at LT.

I realize there is maintenance and upkeep costs, but there should be a tiered approach to the pricing. I don't need any tennis, pickleball or basketball courts; no personal trainers; or the pool for that matter. I just want to lift, shred, sweat and stretch early in the morning.

While the Waverly Life Time club is a great place to work out, without an employer discount, it costs nearly 10× more than a standard big-box gym with similar equipment. The sauna and steam room are nice but comparable to those at the YMCA or MAC. I will say the child care program is by far the best of any gym I've been to. But once the kids hit 10-12 yo they complain about boredom unless they had basketball or free gym on the gymnastics equipment.

Overall, I enjoy Life Time, but the exuberant monthly expense is pushing me towards a more economical option.

Love the gym, hate the cost.“
