Reviews
I have not taken a class here in a while, but I remember the owner being super friendly and a good hard class. It's Lagree, so if you like Lagree, this is a good place. If you want classical, contemporary, or in-between, there are other options.
COREMVMT in The Castro is a sweet little Pilates cult, and I’m proud to be a card carrying member. Lisa, the owner, is basically a community-building wizard — warm, welcoming, and somehow knows everyone’s name.
Heather serves throwback R&B and a slow, controlled burn that feels spiritual. Coach Tommy is a pop queen disguised as an instructor — you’ll beg for mercy while Britney cheers you on. Cat brings Saturday sunshine and “torture but make it friendly” energy.
If you want strong abs, good people, and playlists that heal childhood wounds, this is your spot. Pilates, but make it Castro.
