GoogleReally amazing studio and really love the instructor, DJ. She was very supportive and challenging at the same time. I hope they give her more classes as the instructors can be hit or miss here. She was the best instructor I’ve had so far.
I LOVE ERP 💜💜💜 Tons of locations, a variety of class and a schedule throughout the day to accommodate whatever your work life balance is. Every instructor I've taken class with is knowledgeable and patient, happy to answer questions and always provides variations and options to make things easier/harder/adjust for injury. My absolute favorite pilates place.
Big thumbs up for Alec—the best Pilates instructor in the world! Every session with him is a joy; his kindness and calming nature make you feel completely at ease. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced practitioner, Alec’s expertise and warm approach will leave you feeling refreshed and confident. Highly recommend this spot for an incredible Pilates experience!
Love ERP! It was my first class at this location, I usually go to ERP on South 1st. I loved the space, the natural light, plants, and ceiling were really pleasing! I loved the flow of the class, it wasn't too hard, and just the right amount of challenge. I highly recommend ERP! All the instructors I've had are really great. I love classes with Jet, Michelle, Nicole, Sarah, Graziella, and Anna. (Anna will kick your butt in the best possible way!)
Love the studio, the instructors and the class. This class on Saturdays 10am works great for me mostly because the studio is right across the street of my house, so it makes it easy to show up and start the weekend feeling better. I have been struggling to exercise for years, I am so lazy, now I am happy to have found this studio and classes.
