Club Pilates

Fantastic experience: So happy I discovered Club Pilates conveniently located in Alameda where there is lots of parking. Kat, general manager, is the BEST, along with Rocio - the VERY BEST Bay Area Pilates instructor. The place is spotless and well ventilated with the lights kept dim with natural lighting throughout the studio. I belong to Harbor Bay Club and chose Club Pilates because of its ambience and well-trained experienced instructors.

Fantastic experience: I like the instructors and that in doing a workout I never would have otherwise not done on my own

Fantastic experience: I really enjoyed it, and Margaret was great. I wish I could continue with a program, but I’m financially unable to at this time.

Fantastic experience: Branda was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful—so easy to talk to and made everything feel comfortable and clear. At the front of house, Kat and Emma were wonderfully welcoming and genuinely friendly, setting such a positive tone from the start. Overall, it was a fantastic experience from beginning to end!

Fantastic experience: I am a newbie and am really enjoying the class and instructor. I am struggling a bit with understanding the positions as they are new to me but sure I will get it in time. Loving the classes! They are fun and challenging!

Fantastic experience: Friendly environment with various programs for you to choose , a good place to do your Pilate and get healthy

Fantastic experience: My intro class was great. I now see why pilates is popular. The staff is very welcoming and informed. My instructor was very nice, and I'm terrible with names, but I would take classes with her! I'm sure the staff can help me out with her name, my apologies! The Alameda facility is cute, clean and welcoming.

Fantastic experience: Very welcoming! The instructor Laura was so nice and helpful, since it was my first time doing pilates. She also had an energetic workout playlist to keep you going. 5/5 for first time experience.

Fantastic experience: I love the experience, and how the instructor was so kind, she gave fair instructions and if I didn’t understand something she stoped and showed me the right way to do things.

Fantastic experience: I really enjoy Rocio’s class! She makes Pilates fun with music and the best routine ever!

Fantastic experience: I’m few classes in at Club Pilates. It’s very beginner friendly - very healing exercise with good amount of cardio and muscle work. Front desk and instructors are super. Clean.

Fantastic experience: So far, I am in love with Club Pilates! I have been wanting to try the Pilates reformers for years and finally I tried it, loved it, and joined. So far, I have completed 8 classes, and I think all of the instructors are fabulous. They are super knowledgeable and helpful and patient to a reformer newbie as I am. I highly recommend CP.

Fantastic experience: I got my very first Pilates class with Elisabeth and was quite happy with her helpful demeanor as well as with the structure of her class! Not acquainted with any Pilates routine, I was a little apprehensive at first but quickly loosened up and started feeling more and more comfortable thru the whole class. For a any Pilates beginner I would definitely recommend taking Elisabeth‘s CP Reformer 1 class.

Fantastic experience: Really liked the instructors Ann & Margaret. Felt that the machines and facility was clean. Joanna and Cat are excellent staff who answered my questions.

Fantastic experience: Great classes and fun teachers! Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I had an amazing time at Club Pilates! Professional, kind staff! 5 stars!

Fantastic experience: Thank you for the great experience at Club Pilates. I will definitely be back.

Fantastic experience: LOVE Club Pilates. It has been over a year since I joined and it has been transformative. Teachers are amazing. It takes a beat to figure out which teacher and class is best for you. Everyone is different. Overall with excellent classes, some private classes, and regular support from these super knowledgeable teachers I have gotten stronger and discovered the joys of having a strong core to carry me through the days of too much computer time. While I have had many excellent teachers, Rachel's classes are a joy and I make sure to take her classes at least twice a week. Meera's attention to detail and teaching us form is imperative for getting better at this practice. Lisa's energy and fun is infectious. Honestly, I have not had one bad class in 15 months. There is one downside. Too many members for the schedule. I pay for an "unlimited plan" but its a constant game of being on wait lists. I manage to get into 3-4 classes a week, but my goal has been 5/wk. Not enough sculpt classes. I wish the studio was big enough to hold 2 concurrent classes, or a bigger space so there could be 15 instead of 12 reformers. They would have no trouble filling them at this location. Otherwise I wish I could choose a schedule and know that I have those classes every week. The time playing games with the app is my least favorite part.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful team

Fantastic experience: All the instructors are amazing and knowledgeable. Great place to get some stretching and challenging yourself.

Fantastic experience: From the moment I walked in, staff was warm & made me feel welcome. The instructor was encouraging and knowledgeable, creating a great vibe for my initial class. The boutique studio is clean, inviting, and fully equipped with everything you need for a strong workout. Excited to return and keep building my strength!!

Fantastic experience: I took gabby’s class recently and she was very easy to understand and challenged me the way I needed!

Fantastic experience: Jesse is amazing! He explains things so well. Makes sure you are using proper technique from start to finish. Has great energy and makes sure you get a get a workout in.

Fantastic experience: Jesse is an outstanding Level 2 instructor at Club Pilates! His cueing is consistently clear and precise, making it easy to follow even the most challenging exercises. He strikes the perfect balance between pushing us to grow and offering modifications when needed. Jesse brings deep expertise in Pilates and physiology, and it shows in the way he explains movement and alignment. On top of that, he’s incredibly patient, empathetic, and always brings a friendly, positive vibe to class. I leave every session feeling stronger!

Fantastic experience: This is a different kind of workout. If you have never done Pilates then you are in for a treat.

Fantastic experience: I love the studio! Rocio’s class was tough in the best way—super challenging but really fun. I left feeling strong and totally refreshed!

Fantastic experience: Clean, well organized and welcoming space. Ideal for group classes.

Fantastic experience: Tried the intro class last Sunday and really enjoyed myself. The staff is super helpful and really nice. The trainer was very informative and attentive. The equipment was clean and unkept very well. I enjoyed myself and will be back.

Positive experience: Very good the staff were great defently would recommend and the intro class tells you the basics great for beginers

Fantastic experience: Great class! I’m visiting from SD and was impressed with the instructor. She made a familiar level 1 class feel interesting and challenging with clear instruction. I’ll definitely return for another class on my next trip to Alameda!

Fantastic experience: When Club Pilates Alameda opened in 2018, it was my first exposure to Pilates. The instructors were supportive, encouraging, consistent, and careful as I gained confidence. 8 years later, I attend classes daily and maintain strength, balance, and flexibility. What was once a weak ankle, is now strong and I’ve been without an ankle sprain since starting Pilates. Top instructors include Kyleata, Rachel and Ann Marie. The studio is conveniently located and there’s always plenty of parking.

Fantastic experience: This is my 2nd club pilates studio experience. I like it a lot. The majority of teachers are knowledgeable about exercises and most will get you a good workout. I recently resubscribed if that says anything.

Positive experience: The instructors make this place shine. The more I take different classes, the more I learned about my preferences and where I want to improve. I learned which instructors I want to follow and to avoid. I've really liked classes with Rachel Maas (CP Alameda, please don't lose her!). Other than that, the restroom needs a refresher and constant maintenance. The few times I've been in there, something is always lacking: no soap, no paper towels, etc. I noticed a coat hook was becoming loose and a few days later, it finally came off and was placed on the chair inside the bathroom. The sink needs a repair. I think there's mold in the sink caulking?? I see a stark difference compared to the restroom condition at CP Rockridge (which is very decent). I hope the restroom condition will improve from here.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful instructors; appreciate their energy, patience and encouragement with beginners, and the variety of workouts

Fantastic experience: Pilates has been great for my bad back. I have not had a steroid shot since I started pilates. Additionally, I am a lot stronger and more flexible. I highly recommend.

Positive experience: It was a little hard to get scheduled for the classes i wanted, but well worth the effort and wait. Good full body workout.

Fantastic experience: I really loved the (free intro class) I did in February. I had my first class Tuesday! Great instructor and I really like it so far. It is my first week, so I will update soon. Thanks for being so welcoming.

Fantastic experience: The studio is clean and the staff are friendly and very helpful. The instructors are very knowledgeable.

Positive experience: First time at this studio since I moved but love that it is so convenient and lots of classes to choose from. It was good to be back on the reformer and got an excellent stretch and workout with Shy.

Fantastic experience: I'm a Club Pilates member in another state visiting Alameda. From the receptionist to the manager, everyone made me feel welcome. Jesse's class helped me get over jet lag.

Fantastic experience: Completed an introductory class that was well organized, professional, clean and friendly.

Fantastic experience: The teacher was nice and very helpful. The class was nice and clean and worth the price CANT wait to get my membership and take another class.

Negative experience: Been a member since 2/15/2025 and still haven’t been able to get in any classes due to long waitlists.

Fantastic experience: Instructors are enthusiastic and engaging! They really care about their students/clients. Their attention and care encourages you to want to work hard and do your best. Even though you’re in a class with others you feel special as though you’re having a one on one session. For me Pilates has been a great way to get back in shape without beating up on my knees or other precious joints. The facilities are clean and the instructors and front desk staff are supportive and caring. A happy place to be!

Fantastic experience: AMAZING. SO FUN! Customer service is outstanding, sincere, supportive, informed, and encouraging. DO IT. DONT BE SCARED. JUST DO IT. Sign up for an intro session. You'll feel like a kid again.

Fantastic experience: I can't say enough good things about the classes I take at Club Pilates Alameda! When a business trip comes up, it pains me to have to drop the classes I've reserved. I've never known such deep abs or core strength, and here's a bonus: ANKLE STRENGTH is real, and key for long walks on beaches.

Fantastic experience: The studio is nice and neat. I have enjoyed ever session with club pilates in Alameda, Ca.

Fantastic experience: It was a great experience for me I had fun

Fantastic experience: Staff and instructor was super nice! Clean space as well. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: I Love Dominique !!

Fantastic experience: Love the instructors and the whole staff! Great place to be present with oneself and in community with others!

Fantastic experience: Yesterday I did a 30 minute demo on the Pilates reformer. The instructor was very good and her instructions were really clear. I can’t believe I can feel it in my tummy and my glutes and that was just a demo so I’m really excited. I joined yesterday and look forward to Working out at Club Pilates.

Fantastic experience: Club Pilates Alameda is my home studio. It’s in a perfect location with tons of parking and is very spacious. I’m a new member and already feel comfortable with the equipment. Shy is a fantastic instructor! I can feel my abs engaging for the first time in years and I love how low impact it is for my back and joints. I’m excited to feel stronger and more flexible in the coming weeks.

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love the classes, great teachers, great music and equipment.

Fantastic experience: Club Pilates is an excellent facility with convenient classes and great equipment. The instructors are top notch.

Negative experience: I am sad I have to leave a bad review on this one. All the teachers are nice, class is nice, but the bad review really is about communication. There is zero communication in this place. There is nobody pick up the phone call most of the time, no one respond to the voice mail, and definitely zero person will reply your email when you have a question. I am having difficult time in this place while I need help. Now I am trying to cancel my membership, and they are giving me very hard time to do it by not replying any or my phone call or email or texts. They let me fill up the cancellation form, there isn't any confirmation letter ( no matter how many time you filled it ) , there isn't anyone respond to me or answer me regarding to my cancellation for 5 days. I still waiting for them. For those who are interested learning Pilates, yes the teachers are nice and classes are good, but the catch it -- it's very very hard to find a class. I signed up for 4 classes a month, by the time of my new billing cycle -- the first week most classes are fully booked. It's almost impossible to find anytime to join, if you are lucky, you get maybe 2.5 weeks of classes might be available for your to sign up. If you are sick and traveling during that month..you might just not able to sign up for anything. With the poor communication, this place is really disappointing.

Fantastic experience: Been going here weekly for 2 years and love the facility and excellent instruction… thanks to Jesse

Fantastic experience: I recently took an intro Pilates class at Club Pilates in Alameda. I've never done Pilates before but was looking for a low impact, but challenging, workout to add to my routine and help rehab some injuries. The entire process from registering for class, communication with gym personnel, and day off check in/class was very simple. Everyone was friendly, warm and welcoming. I enjoyed the intro class so much, and the instructor Nadia was amazing. She took the time to explain the movements, body positions, and breathing technique. Following the 30 minute intro class I feel well prepared to attend a full session. I even registered for a membership. My body felt great and I'm looking forward to learning more movements and challenging myself in new ways.

Fantastic experience: Just started at Club Pilates in Alameda and it has been great! Easy to navigate their app to schedule classes, easy to follow instructions from the teachers, and very nice and convenient to park facilities! Highly recommend!!!

Fantastic experience: I have been looking for a work out that makes me excited to go and I have found it! Everyone is so welcoming and kind. The Pilates workout is amazing, I leave feeling better than when I arrived and looking forward to when I can go again! Highly recommend for all ages and levels of fitness!

Fantastic experience: Club Pilates Alameda is awesome! The instructors are super friendly and know their stuff, and the classes are fun and challenging. The studio is clean, and there’s a great vibe. Perfect for all fitness levels!

Fantastic experience: I can't say enough good things about my Pilates experience here. The instructors are incredibly knowledgeable and attentive. They tailor the sessions to your individual needs and make sure you're using proper form to maximize results. The quality of instruction is exceptional, and the value is outstanding considering the personal attention you receive. My flexibility and core strength have improved dramatically since starting, and I couldn't be happier with the results.

Fantastic experience: Great first experience!!!

Fantastic experience: Nadia was extremely thorough as an instructor, confident in her teaching. I love how organized the membership process was. Everyone was amazing!

Positive experience: Great place. Only drawback is waitlists for classes.

Fantastic experience: I did the free class at Club pilates the staff was wonderful and so excited to start the journey

Fantastic experience: Perfect location and staff is super nice. The best place for staying fit. Rachel's Jump Board class is challenging but no-pain; no-gain.

Fantastic experience: Returning to fitness after having a child has been both challenging and healing, and Club Pilates Alameda has been the perfect place for that journey. The supportive instructors and welcoming environment have helped me rebuild strength and find balance. So grateful for this studio!

Fantastic experience: I took the intro class and had a wonderful experience. This was my first Pilates class and it was a wonderful experience. Although it was 30 mins I definitely felt sore after. The instructor was very thorough at explaining everything. I look forward to going back to Pilates.

Fantastic experience: Great facility, amazing instructors (Jamie, Rachel, AnneMarie are stellar), good class variety, decent class availability. Recommend!

Fantastic experience: Club Pilates in Alameda is absolutely the best! All the instructors are great and what makes them great is they are all so different, so it keeps the classes fun and interesting. I most often take Rachael and Annmarie’s classes and love them both, they are challenging yet super fun. My strength, balance and overall well being are at their peak.

Fantastic experience: It's been almost a year since I joined Club Pilates in Alameda. It's probably the best decision I've made for my body and health. I can fell my body getting stronger each day. The instructors are wonderful and the staff is super helpful and friendly. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: Alameda Club Pilates is a refreshing environment and a beautiful place to exercise. I honestly enjoy my time there all the time. The Instructors are friendly and will give you helpful tips if you have any kind of injuries and it’s always there to support you.

Fantastic experience: It’s the best decision I made for myself two years ago. We have great instructors Molly and Jesse are awesome. The environment is clean and friendly service. I met some new friends and I am excited to attend my weekly classes! My clothes are looking and feeling better on me.

Fantastic experience: Great intro class. The instructor was thorough and explained each movement very carefully. She was very patient. I can't wait for my next class.

Fantastic experience: I took an intro lesson and everyone was so nice! It was my first time on the reformer and I’m not sure it’s the exercise for me, but the teacher and the manager were both super helpful and encouraging. If you’re looking for a pilates studio, this seems like a great place. Lots of free parking too, always a plus.

Fantastic experience: From the moment I showed up for my intro class, I've felt welcome and encouraged. I'm a few classes in now and have really enjoyed and felt challenged by the instructors. Both Lisa and Jesse have been great and I look forward to my next class.

Fantastic experience: Alameda Club Pilates is simply the best. The workouts flow effortlessly by the expert instructors. I can’t tell you how fabulous I have felt after a workout. The atmosphere is calming and welcoming.

Negative experience: This place just wants your money and is a scam. The #1 issue is that they oversell their memberships. There’s not enough space for the amount of memberships they have. There’s only 12 spots in every class. Prepare to sign up and be waitlisted weeks in advance. I signed up for an unlimited membership which is pricey and it was not possible to get the amount of classes (around 3x/week) that would warrant an unlimited membership. I will say I could only do classes in the evenings so if you have the ability to signup for a class any time of the day maybe you won’t have this issue. But I have never run into this situation, ever. Secondly, they make you sign a contract for a “3 month commitment”. After a month I was pretty annoyed that I wasn’t getting classes so I tried to cancel my membership. They said it would be $100 to cancel so I said fine, let’s just get it over with. BUT apparently I hadn’t been a member for 30 days yet and they said I had to wait until the next month to put my 30 days in (aka just trying to get more money out of me). I should have recognized the signs when I did the free class. They said it’s normally a $150 signup fee but if I joined right then I could get it for $50. I said I needed to make sure it worked with my schedule and if I called tomorrow if I could still get the $50 and they said yes. I called the next day and said I was ready to join and the man at the front said “okay it will be a $75 sign on fee” and when I mentioned I was told $50 and that they would honor that they quickly agreed. The good is, there are nice instructors who make you feel comfortable and nice equipment. However, not all classes and instructors are created equal. I took 1.5 level classes (because you need to test into level 2) and sometimes felt challenged and other times it was as if the instructor had no plans and was winging it and cut class short. I’m sure it’s right for some people but it was not right for me. And ultimately I did not appreciate them not working with me when the studio was not working for me.

Fantastic experience: This place is entirely a vibe and I have never felt so good. If you truly want to feel restored and you wanna do so in a space that feels like a meditation that hurts so good then this is the place for you.

Fantastic experience: Love the classes! Love the instructors!

Fantastic experience: I am 65 years young and I am in the best shape of my life. And it is easy on my body.

Fantastic experience: Club Pilates Alameda has been an amazing place for us to start our health journey. The staff is always sweet, accommodating, and helpful with scheduling. The studio offers a warm, welcoming environment for all bodies and fitness levels, making it a safe space for everyone. We're sad to leave because of our move, but we highly recommend it to anyone looking for a supportive Pilates community!

Fantastic experience: I’m age 50+ and new to Pilates, looking to enhance my flexibility and core strength. The staff is super welcoming and supportive. The equipment is clean and well maintained. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: An amazing instructor and great class

Fantastic experience: Clean and professional

Fantastic experience: Great classes and instructors, clean organized space! Recommend!

Fantastic experience: Love this place ! Super clean and organised , the classes are always great and instructors are very patient / good mood

Fantastic experience: Love Reformer Flow 1 with Dominique. She explains all the moves clearly and suggests modifications when needed. She focuses a lot on breathing which helps with the moves. She has a very calming presence which makes the class enjoyably. I especially enjoy the personal touch she adds at the end of class with her daily affirmation reading.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Club Pilates for over 2 years now. I have found a class time and instructor I LOVE and it’s part of my weekly schedule. They help keep me fit!

Fantastic experience: I started in January out of shape. I have gone 2-3 times a week and my body feels better. Every instructor has a strength. Jesse gives lots of input to keep you on track whether you are an absolute beginner or more experienced. Rachel has a community feel to every class with clear instructions. Jamie gives great corrections when I’m doing it wrong. Katherine reminds me to check in with your body. I love every instructor. Pilates is making me healthier and happier.

Fantastic experience: CP Alameda is my happy place! Have been going there since 2021 and all teachers and staff rock

Fantastic experience: I very much enjoyed my first vlass with Kylea.

Fantastic experience: Great classes and lovely friendly teachers! Love starting my mornings here ☺️

Fantastic experience: I am new to Pilates and enjoying the positive encouraging atmosphere plus the variety of “times” in the schedule

Fantastic experience: I joined a year ago and enjoyed working out with different instructors. Convenient location, clean, good equipment and friendly staff.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful, well ventilated, temperature controlled space with knowledgeable, informative, helpful instructors. What’s not to love about Alameda Club Pilates.

Fantastic experience: My intro class to Pilates was great, I really enjoyed it ! Jamie was a helpful instructor and a good pedagogue. I am excited to start doing Pilates more regularly in the future :)

Fantastic experience: I love the studio! Honestly, my first time trying pilates was at this studio. I really like how they have an intro class and the instructors are awesome. They each have their own style and pilates classes are always fun and moves change so I love that.

Fantastic experience: This studio was my first introduction to Pilates and I’ve grown to love it so much. There’s truly a teacher for everyone’s flows and needs. I’m so glad I found club Pilates!!
