Core Sport Pilates Fitness Studio

I was super excited to learn about Core Sport Pilates Fitness during Workout Wednesdays in DTP! My go to place before Core Sports was Club Pilates in Los Angeles. Prior to Workout Wednesday, I was on a search to find a reformer class so I decided to sign up for the intro package.

The intro package is the way to go! If you have done Pilates before, this is still the way to go. I tried a private class, multiple semi-private classes, and multiple group classes. The equipment is awesome! They have reformers, towers, and more! Game changer. The classes are small. At Club Pilates I was in a class of 10 versus 4 - 2 people. You get personalized attention to correct your form.

I tried so many classes and different instructors to see what I like and who I like. Really.... I love all of it! From the group tower classes to the personalized attention I get in the semi-privates, I decided this was the studio for me.

The are a handful of options when it comes to classes per month. There is a monthly option that comes with X classes depending on the level you sign up for. You can also purchase classes in a 10 pack. This applies to semi-private and group classes. That's what I went with since there is more flexibility. The 10 packs expire in 1 year. I'll be using them up a lot sooner and it gives you a discounted price compared to the drop in rate.

Signed using "Class Pass" to try the TRX class - I'm loving the fact you're able to reserve spots for available class but the down fall is you have to bet others before they get to it. Since this is a smaller studio - some classes are very limited.

My friend and I arrived SUPER EARLY - the studio is upstairs; unsure if there this is handicap accessible.

TRX class was tough but do-able; we sweat but unsure if that's was due to more to AC being off due to a bad storm the previous day - during that time no one could get it out the "hold" setting. :(

Everyone was super friendly - we were more a little louder and silly for class but we like to enjoy ourselves. I definitely appreciate the ability to switch up from my daily bootcamp routine and try a new place. Even though this was a little drive - I enjoy vibe and plus they had music.

A great workout! It has the cutest, quaint location and the staff is absolutely fab! Also, they are the only studio that allows you to sign up for semi-private sessions online with other members...this is a major benefit! It enables you to partner with other members for more intimate sessions at a great price. #Genius I wanted to make this my pilates home but it's just a little too far. However, for some of their specials I might just have to take the jaunt!

I travel a lot for my job. Because of this, I am able to go to Pilates studios all over the country. If you are unsure about how great Core Sport is - try going to another Pilates studio and you will see the difference.

While some studios are better than others, most do not make an investment in good equipment. Most Pilates studios have plastic reformers and towers on rollers. This makes a huge difference in the quality of your workout. Core Sport has the best equipment, everything is top of the line and well cared for.

At Core Sport it feels like a support team. Members talk to each other and encourage each other. I have never found this anywhere else I have been. Even being the new person at a studio I have never been, more often than not no one takes the time to give me an introduction to the equipment or cares where I am from or why I am there. A new person would never be treated like that at Core Sport!

At Core Sport, the instructors take the time to show you proper form. I trust them and know they are educated and knowledgeable. At other studios I feel like I will hurt myself because the instructor is not paying attention.

If you are already a student or member at Core Sport, rest assured you are at the best Pilates studio with the most class options, best equipment, best instructors and best atmosphere.
If you are not a student or member you should be!

Thanks Core Sport! Nothing compares!

Great instructors, great variety of classes!
A lot of classes to choose from, and the smaller class size allows for a lot of personal attention.

Core Sport is really a top notch facility. The instructors are REALLY WELL TRAINED and are EXTREMELY careful about preventing injuries. I especially enjoy semi-private Pilates with Jessica Post. She is kind, exceedingly knowledgeable, and is really in tune with each client. She will converse pleasantly with you while giving you the tough love we all need to become stronger!

As I said before, the facility itself is really clean and well-kept. It is located in a really charming area, too! It is totally worth the investment.

An island of classical Pilates in a sea of Stott. Classical Pilates is what ol' Joseph P started with way back in the 1920's. It's done with turned out feet (a bit like a ballet dancer) and tends to move a bit faster than Stott (in my opinion). It also, at the end of a session, makes you feel long and tall and stretched and strong. This studio uses the old school equipment to isolate the muscles, help keep you even and leave you feeling tired, but light as air when you walk out. I've had private sessions with a couple of trainers now and done a couple of mat classes. It's pricey, like most reputable Pilates studios, but it's not an experience you can get at the Pilates class at the Y (unfortunately). They should be adding some mat classes which will be easier on the pocket book. The studio is small - but they are building another one nearby so stay tuned. Right now you might be doing exercises with other people in the room. If you have the money to do this, or can scrape it up, I'm unaware of any other exercise that can make you feel quite as pretty and strong as this. And it's not just to feel pretty, I guess. I believe some professional male athletes come here as well.

I have been a client for 3 years. I absolutely love their trainers and facilities. I have a shoulder injury that flares up and they are so quick to accommodate this and still give me an exhausting workout. I love the Pilates Tower/Mat classes, the TRX and TRX Fusion classes, & Barre. You can mix up classes, which is great, and each trainer provides a great variation so I never get bored. They have all the bells and whistles when it comes to a variety of items: ropes, TRX, tower, reformer, free weights, plyometric equipment, jump ropes, etc. They remember your name and face and everyone is very friendly. Don't be intimidated. They are not snobby and the facility is clean and modern. I would recommend them to anyone. You can use the Mindbody App to schedule and buy packages and sync it to your calendar which makes it even easier. It's honestly amazing. All ages and fitness levels are welcome. Do it you won't regret it! I am currently taking 3 classes a week to get back into it after a lazy winter.

Core Sport is my home away from home! It doesn't matter your skilll level size, age, etc., the team at Core Sport will give you the attention you need in order to meet your fitness & nutrition goals. They truly live their motto everyday...changing lives!
