The Pilates Place South Beach has been a lifesaver during the Corona lockdown. Ive accessed the terrific virtual classes several times a week. The instructors are excellent- Jheramie and Mia are the best! They are clear in their directions and even though virtual, its a real workout. You feel like its a private session! I cannot endorse this quality operation more highly. Adam, New York

Im surprised to see a recent one star review from the woman who recently had a stroke. If her muscles arent ready for a normal rigorous class, she shouldve started with a private class so the instructor can slow the pace. But taking a class means you know you have to keep up with the program or simply stop and rest anytime. I have a bad back and Ive had to slow down, modify or just stop when I had to. No biggie.
Ive had nothing but excellent classes with Adriana, Jheramie and recently Dani!
