Urban Body San Jose

Amazing Studio, Amazing trainer - Maria YuI got there Sept 2022 after a muscle injury grounded me for 8+ weeks (no walking). My body was stiff and I could hardly turn my back. Three moths later I got my full strength and flexibility back and more.Highly recommended

**updates: after I posted this review, they contacted me and offered their explanation. In addition they issued a refund. Original comment(2.23.2022): After meeting for the first session, they emailed me and asked me provide a spine doctors note to them regarding my condition. Since I wasn’t knowing my back problem was that bad, I couldn’t email them the doctor note they needed to see. So they cancelled the appointment I paid and did not issue refund ( resolved on Feb 28th)

This studio is the perfect pilates studio. The minute you walk in the door, you relax. Filled with natural light, the studio is a place where you can focus on yourself. Maria and Shannon have put so much effort into making this space an oasis. They are both the sweetest people ever and are very dedicated to making the client experience a good one. They are both former professional dancers so they have an excellent background for understanding the way a body moves. That said, the studio is welcoming to people from a variety of backgrounds, ages and body shapes! Highly recommend!

Fantastic studio with experts leading every session. Incredibly clean and wonderful, calming atmosphere. Can't recommend them highly enough.

I have been a regular practitioner with my girlfriend in the studio since 2016. And over the years the expert and helpful teachers there helped us move further and further on the path of Pilates and Gyrotonics.During the pandemic Urban Body still offers high quality online classes, and I highly recommend people to give it a try.

I bought a trial pack wanting to try gyrotonics and I am so glad I did! First of all, the place is immaculate. Shannon, Maria and the instructors are extremely caring, patient and attentive. It’s clear they love what they do and their inner and outer beauty is contagious. I feel amazing, more aligned and have an increased sense of physical strength, flexibility and grace. Love this place! So worth it!

This Classical Pilates and Gyrotonic studio is the best! I've been coming for weekly Pilates sessions for over two years, initially for small group classes and now for individual training. The studio is very attractive, neat and spotlessly clean. There is the complete range of Pilates equipment maintained in excellent condition. Parking is very convenient on a side street within a block of the studio. The best part is the quality of the instructors: all are welcoming, friendly and very well trained.I work primarily with Maria and, under her guidance, my strength, balance, posture, ability to move well and body awareness have all improved. She is patient in guiding me through the exercises, working especially on areas that need improvement but also challenging me with more advanced movements as appropriate. The sessions are well structured, varied from week to week, and consider how I'm feeling that day, what I want to work on, as well as my long term goals.From time to time I have worked with other instructors, and while Maria is my favorite, they are all excellent and I have learned from each of them.
