Club Pilates

The instructors are super helpful and always offer ways to modify movement if needed

It was my first time visiting and the instructor was very friendly (the reason for the second star). I was set back by the rest of the staff because they purposefully didn’t help the POC and went out of their way to help all the Caucasian women. It definitely had us feeling really uncomfortable to come back to this place.

I began Pilates in February 2019 after being told by my doctor that my previous means of working out was breaking down my body. My previous workouts consisted of boxing, until my back gave out on me. After healing, I did boot camp until, again, my back gave out and I then had back surgery. After healing from surgery, I did another boot camp style workout, and then switched to CrossFit. I would come home from CrossFit and my body was in such pain (and not good muscle soreness pain). My body was rejecting this aggressive style of working out. My back pain and knee pain were horrendous. In January, 2019, at the ripe old age of 56, in an attempt to climb a rope to the ceiling of the CrossFit facility, my hamstring decided it had enough. With my pulled hamstring, I hobbled home. Following my doctor’s orders and shortly after the hamstring situation, I then began Yoga, in January of 2019. I was quite surprised that by body did not care for Yoga. I would experience pain (again, not a muscle soreness pain).So, next up was Pilates. I will be honest; I did not believe Pilates would be a strenuous enough workout for me. Coming in on February 17, 2019 for the Pilates introductory class, I was very, very skeptical. To my surprise, I could see how, if I focused on the proper muscles to be used for each specific exercise explained, this type of exercise could be greatly beneficial. When I was told that many hospitals were adding Pilate’s studios for rehabilitation, I was sold.I started slow, with only 4 classes per month. I thought “I am tired of jumping all in, then coming home injured”, so against my normal routine, I started gradually. It did not take long before I increased to 8 classes per month, and then quickly increased to a full membership. When not traveling with my husband, I try to make 5 Pilates classes per week. It is incredible knowing I am doing something to make my body strong without injuring it. My body is still a mess. I need both knees replaced. But what is great, is I do not come home in pain from injury. I have wonderful muscle soreness when I focus on the mind/muscle connection and use my body properly. The instructors have corrected my form on certain exercises (such as squats) and I was shocked to notice the difference when using correct form (eliminating my back pain twinge I felt from the incorrect form). Everyone that works at the Club Pilates, Naperville South are incredibly helpful. Great people!I am so grateful for giving Pilates a chance. My goal is to have a strong, flexible body long into old age. I know Pilates will be my workout of choice until the day I die. I firmly believe this. In August while walking in front of my husband, as we were boarding a plane, he complimented my legs and on how they have improved in appearance. You just can’t beat that!

Thanks for your review Yue. We would love to get more information about your experience with us so we can make it 5 stars. We do not show that you have taken a class with us, but would love to have you try our free intro class.

I have a knee injury and Pilates workouts have been great for me because they are low impact. The instructors will also ask at the beginning of class and work with you if you have an injury.A lot of people with previous injuries come here and they all talk about how much these exercises help. I can only go by how I feel and these exercises have been amazing for my recovery.And, if Pilates isn’t the only workout you want to try: this place also offers TRX, cardio, barre exercises etc.The owner, Eric, is great and will work with you if you need to pause your membership.

I'm not one to write reviews unless I feel strongly about a service. I have been going here for 2 months and I absolutely love the instructors and the classes. The instructors are really nice, attentive and keep the classes interesting every week. The location is great as well. I highly recommend this Pilates studio!

Great experience .. staff is great and instructors provide great support and guidance. The studio is new and kept very clean. Taking a demo is the best way to check it out. When taking a class The hour goes by very fast due to all of the variations of exercise. It's easy to follow and is great for beginners. Class times are available on the app and easy to schedule. Several classes throughout the day to choose from. I recommend trying classes with various instructors as they all have their own style and intensity of routines can vary by instructor.
