Club Pilates - Downtown Indy

I LOVE pilates, it is the best, non impact exercise. Katie and her team are excellent instructors. They que very well, so you know what to focus on when you're doing the exercises and get the maximum benefit. This is a fantastic place to get in shape quick and fun! The workouts are only 50 mins and most of the time I can't believe it's already over. It's just wonderful and Katie does a wonderful job as the manager and instructor!

I've attended this location for about a year. I jokingly call it slow torture, but it is genuinely the best workout for strength (especially core), stretching, and balance. I love that each instructor brings their own personality to their class. I'm also happy with the increased class selection. Thanks to everyone including the lovely front desk staff who always welcome you in with a smile.

I was instructed to arrive 15 min early to get the socks and sign a waiver. The class started on time. Emily the instructor was detailed and explained everything and the basic movements well. I felt good muscle burning after just a few moves in my calves and triceps and really could tell what a great workout this was. My favorite thing was how slow and controlled the movement is. The instructions were good, I really appreciated that sort of focus.

I was very impressed with Katie's class! Katie was excellent in providing the lowest impact variation FIRST and then progressing into the higher impact/more strenuous variations. Katie used positive, inclusive language, which honestly is hard to find in a pilates class. Even at the other club pilates in the area, I still hear "suck your tummy in", but none of that in Katie's class!!! What I was also very impressed with was that Katie instructed transitions, eg getting off the reformer, moving to a different position safely. As a disability advocate (and a disabled person myself) this is SOOO important and is often forgotten or under appreciated. It was my first time at this location, and I was welcomed immediately. Lastly, again sometimes overlooked, I did not hear any gendered language. Pilates, yes, has a lot of femme clients. However, just because someone looks a certain way doesn't mean anything about their gender (or disability or life experience etc). I would recommend Katie's class to my queer and disabled friends. Which is a rare find!!! This won't be my last class with Katie!

I've had the greatest experience here at club Pilates in downtown Indianapolis. Every one of their instructors is top-notch and I have really enjoyed the classes. Their team is very helpful and accommodating. My body has felt stronger by attending classes. The downside is the parking at this location. If you go on a Sunday, it's free public parking, but otherwise it's hard to find parking in the neighborhood to avoid paying on weekdays and Saturdays. Sometimes it was difficult to get into a class because of the availability and scheduling. But other than that, I would highly recommend their facility.
