Pilates in Chicago

“I’ve been going to Shirley for so many years I honestly can’t remember. I remember going to support her when she was in school and immediately knew she had what it took.

When I opened up my own space I knew the one I wanted to share it with was her. I took the chance and asked her and she took the leap. 4 years later she was able to open her own beautiful space!!!! Supporting growth is everything! I’m really proud of her.

Now anytime I see her she knows what to do. She helps me understand why I may be feeling a certain way. Why certain gym shoes are important and how breath work can change everything.

I’ve seen her really help people over the years-I’ve seen her help people get rid of all types of pains and problems. Her spirit is always welcoming and ready to engage and help you feel great.

Take this as your sign!“

“I wanted to explore a new hobby, and the instructors make me feel comfortable doing so. Slow flow is my favorite class and the prices are amazing,“

“Love this studio! It's clean and nice and their water bottle filling machine has the best water! They have cold scented towels and just create an amazing experience. The staff are very friendly. I love hot yoga here, but their six styles of yoga give something for everyone (from beginners to people who want a full workout!)“

“I absolutely love Barre3. I rarely stick with a fitness studio but they make it very hard to not want to return. Great prices, instructors, and work outs that have you leaving feeling proud of yourself. it’s like yoga and weights combined and i’m all about it. 10/10“

“All of the instructors create classes that are challenging and different. They all make modifications based on current pains, and accommodations based on varying strength of the attendees. It is a fun workout in a lovely space.“

“I recently completed my PSC Mat and Reformer Certification through Amplified Pilates, and I cannot say enough good things about the experience.

This training challenged me in ways I did not expect and pushed me to grow not only as an instructor but also as a student. The programming was thoughtful and comprehensive, intentionally designed to deepen understanding and not just teach choreography. I walked away feeling sharper, more confident, and even more connected to why I teach Pilates in the first place.

Amplified Pilates is truly an incredible studio. The instructors are knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely invested in your growth. The entire experience reminded me how powerful it is to be pushed in all the right ways.

I highly recommend this studio for both clients and instructors looking to elevate their practice.“

“Honestly, this is the best Reform Pilates studio in Chicago Downtown!
Instructors are real professionals, workouts are the best, changing rooms are like a 5* hotel. I love it here!“

“My favorite studio in Chicago! Great vibes, amazing instructors, and always a fun challenge.“

“Can't say enough about this incredible gym. Starting with the owner, Antonio, and to all of the instructors, they are all amazing and are there to help meet you where you're at in your fitness journey and help get you where you want to be. Every piece of equipment you could ask for and a welcoming space. The plant life brings an extra level of energy every time you walk in the door! Can't recommend this gym enough!“

“Love this studio and all the reformer pilates classes. I've been a member for years. The instructors are fantastic. Classes are challenging and effective. The staff here are always asking for feedback to ensure customers have a great experience. Highly recommend!“

“Love this studio. Quality equipment and instructors. The space is so inviting as well. Support this small business and walk away after a great Pilates class feeling a little taller.“

“Leah is great! It is a workout while making sure any possible pain is alleviated. If you have any pain, injuries, post surgery, etc. I would strongly recommend Leah.“

“I have been going to Club Pilates River North since 2020. I have really enjoyed being a member of this studio. All of the instructors are very kind and extremely knowledgable. They pay attention to everyone’s form and correct if needed which I find extremely helpful. They do a good job of demonstrating harder moves. I would highly recommend this studio.“

“I have been attending 1:1 session with Kym for a few months, and I couldn't be happier. Every time I walk home after finishing a session I feel lighter and an inch taller. This has been great for my tight muscles.“

“This studio and specifically Marilyn is a hidden gem. I had a knee injury and she has helped me build back my strength, balance and flexibility. She is so patient, knowledgeable and keeps things interesting by continuing to introduce new exercises! So grateful that I found her. She has deals for first time customers..give the studio a try!“

“My favorite place to take and teach classes! Elena has built the coziest space, and I always look forward to being at studio and taking in its good energy. She is intentional with details from offering espresso to offering sauna bookings. It’s truly the best!“

“Jordan is absolutely amazing. Taking her morning class sets a positive tone for my day! As a beginner I’m finding every basic af class SO hard and she assists and guides. LOVE the studio and equipment.“

“I love the instructions at Platform, they're all helpful but unique so you can get a good variety of exercises and instruction. It's also a great community overall.“

“Absolutely love Club33! Taylor is such an attentive and fun instructor — she brings amazing energy to every class and always makes sure everyone is moving safely and effectively. The smaller class sizes make the experience feel really personalized, which I appreciate so much. Every workout is thoughtfully designed, and I always leave feeling stronger and accomplished. The movements we do are challenging in the best way and keep things interesting. It’s also great to support a local gym that fosters such a positive and welcoming community. Definitely worth it!“

“Great studio, wonderful location, knowledgeable, and friendly instructors, great community! This is one of my favorite Lagree studios across the US.“

“Just did a session with the lovely Effi and it was amazing. She’s so smiley and encouraging and her cues were so easy to follow that everyone has the best workout. 100% recommend, loved it!“

“Can't reach Mary Lee, San Pablo calling lost Nick please find, forgive me Jay, James, Chris and more. Please.“

“Had a wonderful private class for my friends bachelorette! so much fun and excellent guidance“

“I started doing Pilates here, and all the teachers really understand the beginner level. I feel very comfortable taking the classes.“

“I'm hooked. The motivation, position corrections are key to ensuring results and prevent injury. Seems intimidating at first but trust me, you will get the hang of it. I try to go 2-3 times a weeks for both my mental and physical wellbeing. Experiencing the transformation (confirmed by my spouse and peers) in your body is truly lifechanging.“
