Pilates near Evanston

“I have been going to Kerri at Northshore Pilates for nine years--she is fantastic and I can't think of a better way to help my osteoporosis than doing her class. Stretching and strength training all in one!! Don't miss this wonderful Pilates studio.“

“I love classes and workshops with Nikki! She’s so positive, welcoming, and thoughtful. Would absolutely recommend her for any skill level yogi looking for an uplifting class.“

“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.“

“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've been lifting weights here for almost 20 years, and it's one of the smartest things I've ever done! It's a fundamental part of my live long and prosper plan!“

“Gabe is the best! First time coming here, great adjustments with beginner, intermediate and "push" options. Lots of explanations and variations with light push to make you work harder with kindness“

“I've belonged to many gyms, and have been at many different stages in my fitness and health journey, and no place has felt as welcoming as BodiShak has. I joined about 7 months ago, and have been working on a routine that works for me and my work schedule. I love the variety of classes, and the times they are offered - strength training, HIIT, cycling, yoga, and more! - and every coach I've met and worked with is encouraging, responsive, and invested in your success, pushing you to be your best and providing modifications as needed. I look forward to my classes at BodiShak, and leave each class feeling energized and good about myself - even if I'm exhausted and my muscles are sore and tired afterwards, lol. Toni is fantastic, and has created a vibe that is warm and welcoming, carefully curated and meaningful to smooth workouts.“

“Full Circle Pilates helped me gain the confidence and strength post baby! I feel stronger and better than before! The space is beautiful, clean, and welcoming. I love going there!“

“I just finished my first week here and had an amazing time! All of the instructors are sweet, welcoming, and knowledgable. Classmates are also very welcoming and helpful with tips for newbies like me! I'm excited to continue and highly recommend this place to anyone that is looking to workout.“

“I've been working with Witek for about 4 months and have found it life changing. His in-depth knowledge of Pilates and human movement is immediately evident and his attention to detail reassuring. Each session is not only challenging but also fun.“

“Love Ab&Flow! I was a long time reformer pilates enthusiast at Equinox with my coach Caitlin. I just started with her at Ab&Flow. First off Caitlin is a life saver nearly a year ago I couldn’t walk due to horrible back pain. Not only has she made the pain disappear but I’m stronger than ever and a Pilates lover for life! The studio’s vibe and atmosphere is so relaxing and warm. The reformers are wonderful and found them to be smoother than spring systems I have used in the past. Located in a cute storefront in Old Town it’s a must for Pilates lovers?“

“Come here through ClassPass all the instructors are fantastic! And they actually correct you“

“Very welcoming and friendly. I felt almost immediately comfortable and I rarely like group classes.“

“This is one of the best studios in Chicago for strict, Romana (Joseph Pilates protege) based Pilates from former dancers and athletes who have had to accommodate injuries. It’s not just a cosmetic Pilates studio.If you have had a sports injury, or need a true, client centered approach to supplement your physical routine, let Julie and her team take great care of you. And, enjoy the energy of the space.“

“I take Pilates beginner classes with Alexandra and I cannot say enough great things about her and the studio. She is such a great instructor as she not only helps correct your form but also explains why it is important to have proper form and what muscle each pose is working on. The studio is small but very cute and clean!“

“I came here with an obtrusive and debilitating lower spine issue as well as a knee injury. Matt has been so incredibly helpful in a physical and holistic sense. Since the first session, I felt my body healing and strengthening itself. I experienced pain relief from day one. Today I have no back pain or knee pain as long as I maintain proper posture and gait. My core and back are not only stronger, but more toned and defined. I feel empowered and grateful that my body has undergone such an evolving healing process. Every session brings me new exercises, movements and body sensations which allow me to get more in touch with what my body needs to be strong and healthy. I've also been able to improve my breathing techniques, activation of subtle muscle groups, and overall workout technique. I am thrilled with my results and will continue to come to Kinetic Axis to work with Matt. He's truly gifted- he's not just a physical healer, a Pilates instructor, or a teacher. He is also a very positive, uplifting, self-enlightened individual that I feel very comfortable working with. Thanks Matt!“

“I found Hardcore Pilates while I was recovering from one of many orthopedIc injuries - I've had multiple surgeries on my knees, elbow, and shoulder and Kim and Jessica have always been extremely careful to not aggravate my joints. Instead, we work on healing my body from the core outward. Their knowledge of body mechanics is simply mind-blowing, and they can achieve major pain relief with only the tiniest adjustments to your movement and form. The personal attention you receive ensures the very best, safest and most effective results for your body and overall health. I'm stronger now than I have ever been. My posture has improved by leaps and bounds, I am virtually pain free, and have actually regained an inch of lost height! The instructors are so remarkably kind, caring and committed to their clients' well-being that it is and absolute joy to go to class. Finding Hardcore Pilates was hands-down the best thing I've ever done for my health. I know I'm treating my body to the best anti-aging regimen there is, and having a hell of a lot of fun while doing it!“

“I was a member of the first Polestar Pilates Comprehensive Teacher Training class held at Studio 1002. I can’t say enough good things about the program and the studio! Kate is a wonderful teacher with so much knowledge not just about pilates, but also the human body. I learned so much working with her. Megan has done a wonderful job with the space itself. It is by far the most beautiful and well equipped studio in Chicago. If you are interested in a career as a Pilates instructor you must check out Kate. Or if you are interested in trying pilates, come to the best studio with the BEST instructors in all of Chicago, Studio 1002.“

“Wonderful instructors; they really care about the students. We decided to attend this dojo after comparing a few programs. Highly recommend Championship Martial Arts - taking self defense and martial arts is a non negotiable in our home.“

“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.“

“I am new to the area and was looking for a Pilates studio that focuses on proper instruction and form, and I'm so happy I found High Bridge Pilates! I've taken classes with Valerie C. and Valerie G. - both are challenging and communicative. I am excited to continue going to classes here.“

“I live in the neighborhood and am so glad that I found LightSpace! Tutu has been my instructor for over a year and I love how my body has changed and strengthened over time. Tutu starts every session with a simple question - how's the body doing? - and the next hour from there is all about connecting with where I am and appreciating what my body is capable of. Pilates is a great practice for gentle but meaningful training, and LightSpace is a great place for Pilates !“

“Just finished my 300th class at Edgebrook! I've been a member here for two years and this studio has been an integral part of my ankle injury recovery. My posture is better, my core is stronger and my blood pressure is lower. I love how every teacher here teaches differently so it challenges me in a new way. Each instructor differentiates every class so I know I'm safe and getting stronger!“

“Best gym ever! I went here for 2.5 years and loved it every time I set foot in here. With Ramie, Bob, and Michael running the place you’ll always be greeted with a friendly smile. The gym has great energy but isn’t overly busy. Great equipment and the group classes are awesome. Highly recommend this gym to anyone in Chicago.“

“So far, Im enjoying it. Kelly has been a great trainer! Attentive and explains the steps of each exercise so even a novice like me can do it.“

“I attended my first class this weekend and really enjoyed the sweat session. Coach Howard explained each station in detail, encouraged the class, and provided corrections. The space was great, and Coach Howard gets an A++ from me!“
