Hale Pilates Method

It’s a great class, The instructors take their time and help their members. Great environment!

Great place! Great Instructor! Fun and challenging.:):)

Clean, modern studio with excellent instructors and positive attitude. Total of 6 reformers, so it’s nice to have a smaller-​sized group. Instructors always focus on proper form, which is helpful if you are new to Pilates. Also, the beginner classes were as-advertised…for beginners. We’ve taken numerous classes with different instructors at Hale over the past year, as well as private sessions (highly recommend) with Jane and Cat… all of them were excellent. There are at least 5 or more Pilates studios much closer to my house, but I always go here.

I had my first class this morning with Elisa. I absolutely loved it. The studio is small and intimate, and it really felt like a private session since there was just one other girl in the class. I’m so happy to have found a Pilates studio that I love!

I went to my first session at Hale with my Unilocal deal $ 15. The session that I went was considered very difficult for beginners like me. But, the instructor, Cat, was there to help me throughout the whole session. The lesson wasn’t difficult for me at the end. It was great workout.
The max number of people in each session is 6. So that way, it allows instructor to interact with individuals.
After my great experience at Hale, I decided to sign up for monthly membership, which gives you $ 25.00 per session rate.
How effective was the session? Very effective with Cat. Next morning, my glutes and abs were so sore (but, good sore) for days; that probably means that I’m actually working out my muscles, right?

I love pilates and it had been some time since I had practiced. I looked at a few studios in the area, including the one I had been a member of in the past and decided to try Hale. I was impressed with the 1^st interaction which was a phone call to learn more about my needs. I started with privates with Jane and have been diligent — still with Jane :-) Hale is a peaceful, modern, semi private studio — classes are no more than 6 ppl allowing for lots of personal attention, there are a variety of other things as well; TRX, cardio classes, and mat. I am also impressed with the follow up, check ins, and surveys. Hale wants to make sure they are providing what you need to build strength, not injure yourself and hit your goals. Great studio!

This my First time ever taking Pilate classes. I was intimated at beginning, but after taking this class Taught by very knowledgeable yet patient teacher Elisa. I feel so much more comfortable and exited to take more classes ! She is a great teacher! Perfect for first timer!

The first time I walked in, I was told this was true Pilates. I have taken Beginner and Intermediate reformer with Cat. Both are fairly easy classes but the biggest benefit comes after class. I felt aligned and even taller immediately after. I would highly recommend adding a Pilates class to your workout routine

The Pilates class there are a great workout. Cat is a fabulous instructor, love taking her classes, she really make the class fun, yet you’ll get a great workout.

I bought a 3-​class Groupon to stay in shape during my vacation when I was staying nearby, and I was really happy with the experience. Overall, I really loved the studio and instructors. It’s small, with a maximum six people per class, which pretty much guarantees that everyone will get a good amount of attention from the instructor. Each class I attended had only 1 – 2 other students in attendance. On the downside, the small studio means the class offerings are limited, which might be an issue depending on your schedule and the level you need.
Here are the three classes I took:
Intermediate Reformer with Amanda: This was my first class at the studio, and I really liked Amanda. She was very professional and knowledgeable while still being nice and approachable, so I felt very comfortable asking questions, etc. The class was great, very different from previous classes I’ve taken at my home studio, and it was a nice change of pace. I would definitely go to her classes again if I were in the area.
Beginner Reformer with Leslie: Leslie was also a great instructor, though a little bit more intimidating. I was kind of surprised that her beginner class wasn’t much easier than the intermediate class from the day before, but that might just be because I was sore. I would happily have gone to her class again if it had fit my schedule.
Cardio Fit with Aga: Aga is a great instructor, very sweet but tough. She was really good about demonstrating all the exercises, which was important for this complex routine. Personally, I don’t love cardio classes, and I only went to this class because it was my last day in town and it was the only class that fit my schedule and skill level. Though I would have preferred a pilates class over this moderate-​to-​high impact class, it was still a good experience, and I was definitely sore the next few days.
All in all, I enjoyed all of the classes and would highly recommend this studio if the class offerings fit your schedule.

Great studio, very clean and great machines. This was my first time to a reformer class and Cat was amazing. She walked us through everything, she was very encouraging and the pricing is pretty amazing compared to other studios. I felt great the next day!

Hale Pilates is a beautiful studio, clean and peaceful with great equipment, and wonderful instructors. I particularly love Leslie’s class! Everyone is very positive, and helpful. Love this studio!

After a few sessions, I wasn’t sure if HALE was for me and then I had a private session with Jane and that changed everything. Pilates is an incredibly humbling type of exercise and it requires a lot of discipline and focus in order to get what you need out of it. The private session helps calibrate your work out and targets areas to work on to optimize your regular group class sessions.
I thoroughly enjoyed my session and look forward to applying my newly learned techniques to the group class sessions. I will likely file in private sessions to continue developing my skills in pilates.
HALE has a beautiful boutique-​like studio where even the group classes feel like a one-​on-​one experience. I highly recommend taking a personal session or two prior to taking the general sessions or at least take a one-​on-​one at some point to really get a better perspective of what the platform has to offer.

Amazing environment, vibe, and a comprehensive support system to fulfill your fitness/​health goals.
This is the best Pilates studio in the South Bay. This studio isn’t like other studios because they keep Pilates true to its original method. I’ve been a client for a year now and will continue to work on my goals in this great studio.
Kristin is a great instructor. She keeps you focused and targeted during your session. Although sociable, she doesn’t let that get in the way of your precious time. Everyone I encounter there has a positive attitude.
Best studio ever!

I took a 3 person session at Hale Pilates The room was completely modern with the finest equipment I’ve ever seen… Jane the owner was our instructor and was professional, kind and very involved with our exercises. We received her undivided attention for the hour and the workout was just perfect for our level of fitness and flexibility. It is my go-​to pilates gym from now on… I cannot say enough… You want to get in pilates shape and have fun doing it? Go to Hale… Haha… Pardon the pun.
.

Great studio, nice machines, clean and upbeat. see below for insight.
CLASSES:
What I like the most is the variety of classes — it’s not just reformer, but there are focused classes for Glutes and Abs, and Tower-​only, and even conditioning workouts (shoes required) for a more intense workout (NOT Pilates).
INSTRUCTORS:
The teachers are good — each have their own unique style, which I appreciate so it doesn’t become monotonous. but different personalities means different personalities… give it time to get used to each person
PRICE:
very comparable. if you go a lot, they have a monthly unlimited package which is very cost-​effective if you’re going more than 3 times a week.
Highly recommend!

I recently went to my 1^st ever Pilates class here. I had tried home videos in the past and going to the studio — there’s nothing quite like it.
The studio was clean and the equipment was fun and easy to use! I love that the teacher was one of the owners! She was fantastic and helped me get acquainted with the equipment. She took extra time before class to explain everything I needed to know and was so nice! Can’t wait to go back!

I am writing this review as a pilates «newbie», but after searching the south bay for a good Pilates study to get in to contact with I decide to check out Hale Pilates because of their great Unilocal reviews.
The two owners of this studio were not only extremely helpful in answering my question, they shared a visible excitement for their profession. On top of that the studio is gorgeous, immaculate, and welcoming.
I was lucky enough to get a one on one session with Jane (one of the owners). Knowing it was my first full class in Pilates she was very welcoming, informative, and responsive to my questions. The best part was she explained everything (mostly corrections of my lack of Pilates experience) in step by step, easily understandable directions.
As for the workout (I am a guy who does the normal «gym» workouts}; this was completely new, exciting, and surprisingly challenging. The best part was I was sore (in a good way) in brand new places!
Would recommend this place in a heartbeat!

This place is SUPER new and CLEAN! The girls are awesome and make me feel welcome even though I’m a big, tough, strong, guy. HA! I had never done Pilates before trying them out and fell in love! It is also nice to have the TRX option too!
The teachers are experienced and knowledgable. They know how to make the workouts tougher for me and easier for my wife. I thought that Pilates was all about just stretching and basic movement, I was wrong as I left feeling a full body workout and sweating A LOT.
I challenge you to find a nicer Pilates studio with a better team running it, it’s just not happening.

I was asked by a friend to join them for a workout at Hale Pilates. I have never done Pilates before and this is my first time in a Pilates studio. I do exercise often so working out isn’t new to me. Pilates is a whole new workout that I have never experienced before. I worked out muscles I never thought I had.
The space at Hale is very nice and the atmosphere is very inviting. The instructors were super friendly and made me feel very comfortable especially since it was my first time.
I already scheduled a second class. Can’t wait to return!!!
