Core Chicago Pilates

Jun 2026

I started Pilates here a little over a year ago after a recommendation from a friend. I've taken group reformer and chair classes, and every instructor I've worked with has been so knowledgeable and patient with me. I had never really worked out my core before, and now my core feels incredibly strong and it's noticeably improved my back and hip pain.

The studio itself is in a great location and I love the vibes. Every time I walk in I feel uplifted and motivated to become stronger. I highly recommend taking some classes here whether you're a beginner or an expert!

This is my favorite Pilates studio. All of the instructors are very friendly and helpful. I took a private with Dorothy and she was great, she was really knowledgeable and encouraging. I had been struggling with back pain from golf and Pilates has made my body much stronger and more durable. The studio has all sorts of equipment, I used the reformer, chair and barrel. I would highly recommend Pilates to anyone(esp at Core) that thinks they are strong from lifting weights but struggling with pain because of muscle imbalances.

Core Chicago Pilates delivers a focused, high-quality experience from the moment you walk in. The space is welcoming, and the sessions feel intentional without being intimidating.

Their instructor Sage, really stood out. Her understanding of anatomy and how it applies to each movement made the workout precise and effective. Every cue had a purpose, and the adjustments made an immediate difference.

What really sets Core Chicago Pilates apart is the personalized attention and genuine care the staff shows towards my progress and well-being. You don’t feel like just another spot in the class.

Challenging, thoughtful, and absolutely worth it, especially...read full review
