Pilates in San Diego

“First time trying Barre3 and I’m obsessed!
For me, it’s the perfect combination of cardio and weights, and you can adjust everything to your own level.
After only five classes, I already feel stronger, more flexible and way more balanced.

The instructors are amazing, not only are they super talented but they created such a safe, welcoming space every single class.

You have to try it. You won’t regret it! ?✨“

“I have been going regularly to the spa for a couple of months and my skin looks and feels amazing! I get compliments daily!! Dawn is incredible and Anna & Jenn, the owners, go out of their way to make you feel at home. Highly highly recommend!“

“Very personable and friendly staff and doctor. Listened and created a plan to my personal needs.“

“Had such a great class! It was hard in a great way. Will definitely feel the burn tomorrow, can’t wait to go back. Such a big studio too, you don’t feel on top of each other. Cute merch to buy too!“

“I’ve been taking classes at Powerhouse Pilates for the past four years, and I can say with full confidence that it’s the best Pilates studio I’ve ever been to! Brigette and Jennifer have created such a strong sense of community, and every instructor brings a unique, challenging, and creative approach—so you never hit a plateau with any muscle group. I wouldn’t consider going anywhere else!“

“I’ve been doing Pilates for about two years and my entire physicality has changed. Every aspect of my life is better. For men, Pilates is a hidden gem. Point Pilates is the best studio I have ever been to. I spent 9 months working out here before leaving the area for a job, and have yet to find a better studio. I recently popped into a class and had a great experience. Wanted to leave an appreciation post here. Thank you Point Pilates for introducing me to Pilates, and for setting the bar so high!“

“I'm very happy with my first month here at this studio. They have so many classes because they have 2 studios. So far I've taken the Center & Balance and Flow 1 classes with too many instructors to count. The classes are varied between the instructors and that makes the classes interesting. I'm looking forward to leveling up. I wanted to add that I do have health issues and I am able to go at my own pace and ability.
If you take the intro class you really only have time to try the reformer but there are other pieces of equipment they use during classes.“

“Two classes with Andrew today and I’m glowing! ?✨ I sweated, I laughed, I had a blast. Andrew is hands down the best way to start or end your day ~ his positive energy is contagious and I always leave stronger, happier, and so proud of myself.

Looking back, I’m beyond grateful I started this journey months ago. Working out has finally become a habit that stuck, and it’s all thanks to Andrew. Somehow, he makes me want to show up, push myself, and become the best version of me.
If you’ve been on the fence, don’t wait ~ just take a class. Life’s too short not to feel this good. ?

“My daughter has been attending Golden State Ballet Academy for almost a year. The group lessons are high-quality, and all teachers are very professional and encouraging. My daughter feels seen and supported at each class. She especially likes Mr. Raul’s teaching style and his lessons on various ballet turns. She enjoyed dancing on stage with her peers during her first Nutcracker season. She also cherished the time spent learning from the company's professional dancers, as she danced with them on stage. Thanks to Golden State for providing such fantastic opportunities to its students!“

“I love this gym and the instructors! I have been to Victoria and Catherine's classes and they are both really amazing. They make me feel at home but also keep me accountable to pushing myself. I tend to slack off and get lazy at times so I really appreciate the accountability partnership. Thank you Saltwater Sweat Co!“

“My husband has experienced severe hip pain for the past year and has tried several PT practices. We finally discovered your practice and he is beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel. His pain has lessened significantly and is finally getting back to being himself. Your knowledgeable and caring PTs have turned his life around. Thank you Comprehensive Therapy Services!“

“Roshni is an amazing instructor—super friendly and incredibly skilled. She creates a fresh curriculum for every session, letting you try new exercises and strengthen different parts of your body each time. Her studio is adorable, with a beautiful view of the golf course and the sky.
Highly recommend!“

“I’ve been a member at sculpt room for 3 months now. I have the unlimited monthly mat. I love this studio so much! It is the most perfect way to start my morning and I always feel so great after. I have taken about 10 different instructors and have loved pretty much all of them. It is such a good workout and pushes your boundaries while also allowing you to go at your own pace if needed. I take Becca and Sarah regularly and they are amazing!!“

“I came to Avanti Pilates almost a year ago. I was an active person prior, but I pinched a nerve and have been out of commission. I had to rebuild my strength. Daniella has been amazing at helping me get back to my abilities. She's patient, encouraging and hyper aware of my body position while I do the exercises. I'm completely comfortable that I'm in good hands and won't hurt myself as I learn Pilates. And I've been able to gain my muscle back. All the while, she's compassionate, friendly, and encouraging. She's the best!“

“I’ve been a Pilates enthusiast for over 10 years and have been bless with many good instructors. Recently Tonia substituted at my studio and I have to say she is one of the best teachers I’ve ever had. The class flow was perfect and her knowledge of the correct form for the exercises was great. I find myself searching the schedule to find her name so I can take another class with her. Highly recommended.“

“I'm new to Pilates and can't recommend this place enough! The small class size—just five people—means you get plenty of personalized attention, and the instructors are incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and supportive.

After struggling with back pain for years, my doctor recommended physical therapy and Pilates. I ended up focusing on Pilates, and I’m so glad I did—my back pain is completely gone.

Chloe’s class is my favorite—she’s amazing!“

“Been going to 4S Dance for 7 years. My daughters have loved jazz/lyrical, ballet, tap, hip hop, musical theater and Nutcracker. The owners are passionate about what they do, the dance instructors are the best and my girls love it. Their summer camps are incredible (literally they only want to do ones here) and they have pilates for adults with the absolute greatest instructor...I've been going for a year now and love it.“

“This is a great place to do ballet. Alisha and Meghan really know their stuff. I'm very new to dancing and this was my first performance. They were very nice to me, answering every question I had. When I wasn't feeling well and had to leave class early, they didn't fuss. They are very understanding. -Teresa“

“I've taken private pilates lessons with Jessica for nearly a year while rehabbing from sciatica and back surgery. She is amazing. Extremely knowledgeable about pilates, she adjusts positions for my particular problems, finds ways to push me, celebrates my progress, and cares about me as a whole. She even got me to start swimming, which really aided my recovery. Finally, Jessica is very funny AND a really kind person. It's easy to develop trust and rapport with her, which I think is important for anyone learning and growing in pilates. And did I mention her rates are ridiculously low for private pilates?? Yes, you need to try her!“

“Annie is our absolute favorite! We have worked with her for a number of years and we would follow her anywhere. We really enjoy Dana also - she is very good at explaining the moves and she’s lovely. Thank you for your help and dedication to our health!“

“Tried the 30 min free trial class today. First time trying Pilates - it was fun and challenging for this not-so-graceful older woman. :) Dayna was a wonderful instructor- energetic, knowledgeable and patient! Space itself was bright and clean and everything seemed brand new and well-maintained. Reception was a very warm and efficient experience too. Highly recommend giving it a try if you are remotely interested.“

“I really love this studio. I started hot yoga as a guest and made the decision to join. Everyone who works there is pleasant. Each class instructor offers their own amazing experience to us. I feel I get more out of my practice when I am in tune with myself and needs, am early and ready and open to learning while staying focused. I’m amazingly heated and refreshed each time I take a class.“

“Rick B.
I’ve been a client of Secil’s for over 8 years, doing an hour session in her studio every week. I started doing Pilates 17 years ago. She’s not only a superb trainer, she is a healer. She’s healed a rotator cuff injury I’d had since my late teens from a water skiing accident. A year of directed exercises completely healed the injury, allowing me full range of motion I hadn’t had for over 60 years. Two years later, a wrong move dancing gave me a very painful knee injury. An orthopedic surgeon recommended arthroscopy to remove bone chips from under the patella. I asked him if it would completely cure the problem and he said, “No, when I take something out of one side of the knee, the other side will be bad in a year.” I cancelled the surgery and had Secil start working on it. Directed exercises once again had it healed completely in a year. I’ll be frank, geriatric Pilates, her specialty, takes hard work, but it changed my life for the better. She’s a master, and a wonderful person as well.“

“It is with pure joy to let the world know how fabulous Michele is on every way. There are not enough accolades in my vocabulary to sufficiently describe just how incredible of a person she is. Michele is very knowledgeable about the body and how our muscles affect our movements. She incorporates Pilates and yoga with her workouts and has great equipment and weights to add to the mix. It’s always a thorough workout. She is an encyclopedia of exercises and has the ability to zero-in on the best exercises for my fitness which many times reveals my many weak spots as well!! If I can’t do an exercise, Michele breaks it down or modifies it for me so I can still work that particular area. What I know and what I’ve witnessed is that Michele is committed to improving everyone’s physical fitness no matter what their fitness level or age is. She is very supportive and encouraging, and I am proof that what she teaches works like magic! I have never been in better physical shape. I am so grateful that I have Michele in my life.“

“Working with Eva completely solved years of low back pain. She tailored her sessions to my body's quirks, and continually evolved our sessions to adapt to new changes. I can recommend her emphatically with zero hesitation“
