Really enjoyed my workout here! Studio was intimate. Pace was slow. I value studio where i can actually practice body alignment in addition to strength. So much prefer this studio over others that just feel like Barrys on a reformer. Had a girls date, grabbed some brunch on the way to Mission Dolores. Would have liked: More alignment corrections from instructor.

Reflecting on my journey, this review celebrates an entire year of transformation, growth, and newfound strength with CoreMVMT, my local Pilates sanctuary. When I initially embarked on this journey, my back was a constant source of discomfort and pain, a stubborn shadow over my life despite over a decade of dedicated yoga practice. Back issues were an unwelcome companion, making my days challenging and my love for yoga strained. It was then that CoreMVMT emerged as a beacon of hope. Under the compassionate guidance of Lisa, Kat, and an extraordinary team of coaches, I found not just instructors, but mentors and cheerleaders who have been instrumental in helping me surmount my health challenges. With their expertise, I embarked on a routine of 2-3 classes per week, a commitment that has been nothing short of revolutionary for my health and well-being. The impact of this journey has been profound. With newfound core strength, I've ventured into territories I never thought possible for myself. Training for a triathlon became a tangible goal rather than a distant dream. Running over 8 miles has now become a testament to my strength, free from the back pain that once plagued my every step. This transformation has been nothing short of miraculous, a testament to the power of dedicated Pilates practice and the supportive environment fostered by CoreMVMT. Each class at CoreMVMT is a masterclass in understanding and appreciating our bodies. The instructors expertly guide us through movements that are not just about physical fitness but about nurturing a harmonious relationship with our bodies. They teach us the art of being fully humanhow to carry ourselves with grace, relate to our physical selves with kindness, and approach everyday movements, whether it's bending, cleaning, or simply standing, with mindfulness and care. The accessibility and inclusivity of CoreMVMT's class formats deserve special mention. They have created a space where everyone, regardless of their fitness level or experience with Pilates, feels welcomed and supported on their journey toward better health. In summary, my experience at CoreMVMT has been transformative. The studio and its incredible team have not only helped me achieve my health goals but have also opened my eyes to the incredible capabilities of my own body. For anyone looking to embark on their own journey of health and self-discovery, I cannot recommend CoreMVMT enough. Here's to many more years of strength, health, and movement with this amazing community.

Cute studio, and I loved that they offer sweat towels as most pilates studios dont. However, I wished the instructor walked me through their machine before class (Ive taken pilates at BodyRok, Solidcore, and other local studios and every studios machine is different) and provided more alignment and form corrections, both verbal and physical, throughout class. This studio isnt surrounded by mirrors like other workout studios, so the instructor guidance HAS to be there to ensure correct form and avoid injury if you cant check your own form in the mirror. I also did not feel challenged by the programming and barely broke a sweatand Im usually a very sweaty person when doing any workout. I might try an Intermediate or Advanced class one day to give it another shot, but maybe the programming just isnt for me.
