Studio 8 Pilates

Studio 8 is amazing! I’ve been doing Pilates regularly for 3+ years and this is by far my favorite place. (Full disclosure: I followed my instructor, Erin, to Studio 8 from a previous studio because she is so fantastic!) The studio is meticulously clean and the equipment is all top of the line. Plus, there are two walls of windows that let in a TON of natural light so the space itself is really inviting.
I have not taken a class at the studio, so I cannot speak to that, but the private sessions are great. As I said, I followed my instructor from a previous studio so naturally I recommend her highly. I have seen the other instructors working when I’m in the studio and every one of them is patient, knowledgable, and supportive of their clients. There’s no pressure to be perfect or know exactly what you’re doing right off the bat. The focus is much more on your growth, health, and comfort. In my personal experience (and I’ve seen this with other instructors as well), Erin gets just as excited as I do when I’m able to complete a series or do an exercise that I was not able to do before. It’s definitely a welcoming environment for people of all ability levels.

This pilates studio is a favorite of mine. The building is clean and full of light, the instructors (I’ve had multiple session with 3 instructors in the past few months so far) are friendly and make sure everyone in the class are doing positions correctly, but in a gentle manner. Both the jumpboard reformer and mat classes are fun and challenging.
Great whether you want to keep fit, train for a race, or get better after an injury. Class size fluctuates from 2 to 9. I’d suggest taking advantage of the first class discount ($ 10 for a mat class, $ 19 for jumpboard reformer). Also, you can park in the lot next to the studio.

Studio 8 Pilates is fantastic. Although it is a newer place, the owner and director, Christine Hall has been in the fitness and Pilates business for many, many years. I have relied on her Pilates instruction and classes since 2008. Christine and Studio 8 have an incredible dedication to great fitness, lifestyle and health. This is an incredible place and I recommend them to everyone who is interested in getting really great instruction, whatever level you are at. They are friendly, professional, dedicated, extremely knowledgeable about physical fitness, Pilates, and anatomy. I am deeply grateful for all the instruction and learning i get here.

One thing about me: I am obsessed with pilates jumpboard reformer classes. Obsessed.
One thing about jumpboard reformer classes — those babies are hard to find.
Enter Studio 8. While other studios might offer jumpboard classes once a week if you’re lucky, this place offers four a week. I’m in heaven. Oh, and for those not familiar with the class, they attach a huge board to the end of the reformer and you get to kick off it while doing cray cray stuff with your legs. Sometimes they’ll be straight up in the air, sometimes your feet will be expected to land wide or heels together, and sometimes you just get to jump. But the best thing is you will work your abs ridiculously hard and get your cardio on without any pounding on the joints. Srsly, this class makes my flat feet so happy. So, if you’re in a cardio rut, go here and thank me later. Oh, and take Veronica’s class. She had us rocking fun moves I’ve never tried before, and hands down is my new fave jumpboard instructor. Just do it.
