A close friend asked to me to do an intro class with her and I was hooked instantly! It's been many many years since I've been part of an exercise community and Club Pilates just ticks every box for me. I love the variety of every class, the instructors are all fantastic but my favorites are Rachel and Samuel, they make the class time fly by every time! I can feel the difference the classes are making in my body and I look forward to every class so much so that I just keep increasing my membership from 4 times a month to 8 times and now unlimited classes. So grateful to have found Club Pilates!!

I've been attending the studio for about 15 months (since Oct 2024) for 4 sessions a month. The studio is clean and staff are courteous. The instructors help with any modifications and direction. I have found that the workouts are all a bit varied so you are not doing the same thing everytime you come. They have been flexible when I've needed to pause my account for medical reasons.

I just love Club Pilates in Shawnessy. I joined as I have arthritis in my hip and was looking for a gentle yet effective way to exercise. I've only worked with ladies, they have been terrific. Due to personal reasons I was unable to attend classes on late December. The staff were amazing and were able to accomodate my request. I would highly recommend Club Pilates Shawnessy to anyone looking for a quiet stress free place to stay either stay active or begin a new fitness regime.

It's been a while since I've been in a gym setting so I was a little nervous going in, however, I had a great experience at club Pilates. I loved the serene setting, the instructor Sherry was helpful and it was easy to understand her instructions. We were guided through exercises and helped to make adjustments for our personal level of fitness.
The following day I felt like my muscles had been activated and I could feel them but I didn't hurt. I am looking forward to signing up and becoming a member, and being able to build up my core strength and tone up in such a comfortable setting.

This is not a review because I was signed up for a trial class and walked out before even taking the class. It is rather feedback. OK, as others have said: the pilates socks are overpriced but as a business person, I have no problem swallowing that for a free class. The studio has to offset their cost somehow. I did confirm that I absolutely needed them and was told that yes, they were required. Fine. Then there was a bizarre discussion about my foot size and which size sock would fit me. I was told that a meduim fits up to a size 10.5. My foot is almost an 11 so I stated that I need a size large. Apparently the individual at the front with whom I spoke didn't see it this way and reiterated that the medium went up to a size 10.5. Instead of make a big thing out of it. I simply said: Ok, so I will look for a large then. I thought that was the end of it, but no. She said AGAIN: Our mediums go up to a 10.5. I finally said: My foot is not a 10.5 it is almost an 11. Then she said: To me an almost 11 is a 10.5. Honestly, this was so pointless and inappropriate. Further, I didn't get why I was having such a weird conversation that was frankly tinged with such aggression. I took a moment and told them that I was just going to leave. I wasn't feeling it and this space wasn't for me. I was shocked. I booked the trial earlier in the week. I was very excited to participate, check out the space and was hoping to commit to being a member. However, the environment was just so unwelcoming and negative. Again, this is not a review because there are so many positive reviews regarding the quality of instruction; It is feedback. I came in looking for a positive, friendly experience and I was left with a negative unfriendly one. You can have the best instructors, equipment and space, but people remember how you make them feel and your staff made me feel like I was an unwanted idiot. I hope this feedback helps you improve and not lose another potential customer like me. I wish you the best of luck.
