Listen, as a man my experience here was both fun and challenging lol. This was my first pilates class of my life and Soleil was the one leading the class. There is plenty of space for modifications for wherever one may be at in their mobility and strength journey. Now as a healthcare professional, I do think there are some great movements that will help retrain the body to have more mobility in the hips and stability in the low back and spine. The class flew by, the tunes were fire, atmosphere was great and then even offer a beginner class. Highly recommend for anyone seeking a great workout as well as tight community!

One of the most welcoming workout facilities! Not only are the instructors amazing, providing encouragement and directions, but also everyone is excited to be there with a smile on and kind to one another. I was originally worried about parking, but it has never been an issue! They also just implemented a no filming policy which make everyone feel more comfortable. Definitely check it out!

I started coming to this Pilates studio back in January, and honestly, I was a little intimidated at first. My very class was with Eva and she was so kind and really set the tone for the welcoming atmosphere I still experience nearly 7 months later. The space itself is super trendy and taking classes quickly became a part of my weekly routine. The instructors are fantastic: they know how to motivate you to work hard while also celebrating the fact that you showed up, which I really appreciate. There's a great variety of class times and instructors, so it's easy to find something that works with my schedule and keeps things fresh. Overall, an amazing experience and I'm so glad I gave it a shot!

I really enjoy coming to Friday Pilates! I was really nervous to get started but it's a great place to get started as a beginner. It can be challenging but also a great place to push yourself. The instructors are very welcoming as well. I genuinely appreciate how nice everyone is, which goes a long way in group classes. Highly recommend!

ETA: Had a wonderful conversation with the business owner (we love a badass boss who takes feedback with grace). She’s committed to responding to my feedback in really clear ways, and I’m so appreciative that she was open to my comments. Will report back as the changes are instituted, but already I am so grateful to her for her commitment to her clients.
I've been a member at Fr¡day since it opened (literally purchased the founding membership before you could even sign up for classes), but I have withheld my judgement to ensure my feedback wasn't based on kinks common early on in a business. After a year, I think I can review fairly my experiences!
While I think there are a lot of great things about the studio, there are also some places where there is room for some improvement.
So, first, the good: The studio is well curated and very cute. There is a clear theme and vibe and it plays out well throughout. Most of the staff are incredibly welcoming and kind. There is a pretty wide diversity of instructors, so you can generally find someone whose style and music taste matches yours. I haven't really seen any physical results from the classes, but I do appreciate the mindfulness of the Pilates approach taught here.
OK, now for some gentle feedback: It's very clear to me this studio had a specific clientele in mind when it was created. It definitely has an influencer vibe, and I do see a lot of attention paid to people who attend who have a social media following. Look, I get it. It's a business and influencers sell!
That said, I really REALLY wish they had a no recording during class policy. There is nothing more distracting and defeating than realizing you may have been recorded while working out... who knows if I've ended up in some reel or story (or worse potentially in a viral TikTok while I'm on the struggle bus). Even if there is no possible way I'm in frame, the second I realize someone is recording in class, I am taken away from the movements and exercise. I can't focus on my form when I'm worried about being on camera. It's just awful. Hype up the studio and the experience before and after class, but leave the class recordings to private sessions or when you're at home, please.
I also have a really hard time with the cancellation policy. It's strict, and I find myself missing classes because life gets in the way. Again, I get that it's a business and often necessary, but it's tough as a client.
Finally, there is a very clear difference in experience and expertise amongst the teachers. There are some instructors who have an immense knowledge of Pilates and body physiology. They have no issue making corrections and insuring everyone is safe during the movements.
Other instructors feel almost like they had a Pilates hobby and signed up for a quick instructor training. There aren't corrections, directions are very unclear and confusing, and it's obvious they're using guides someone else wrote. I have learned to stay away from these instructors as much as possible. I don't feel totally comfortable in these classes with my limited experience in Pilates.

as someone who has been to just about every reformer Pilates studio in tucson, I have to say Friday Pilates is unmatched. It is the perfect blend for beginners to experienced, with plenty of opportunity to further challenge yourself and perfect your technique. The ambiance is great, and the instructors are even better!

If you’re looking into starting Pilates , this is the PERFECT place to do that. I started here for the first time and from the moment I walked in the door , I was greeted with a smile and felt very welcomed . Instructors are very knowledgeable and help you through all parts of your workout , which was very helpful when I first began. Over all it is a great atmosphere to be in , I enjoy going and getting a great workout in but at the same time it’s like a little retreat where I can also relax. It’s a great way to start your day with morning classes or end your day with evening classes. Highly recommend

Great instructors!! If you're looking into pilates, this is the place to go. Try 2 classes for $50. Reformer classes are perfect for any one. Then the jumpboard is a great cardio session, or wind down on a Wednesday with wind down Wednesday 🫶

When this studio opened, it immediately caught my eye and I loved the environment, the concept, the people! Not only are the vibes high when you walk in but what an amazing community they have built!

Depending on what kind of Pilates you’re looking for this may or may not be your place. It wasn’t mine. I was here for about a month and was very underwhelmed with every class I attended. I was sure to attend multiple instructors as well to see if it was a studio wide disappointment or just certain instructors.
If you want soft, gentle, beginner, form doesn’t matter “I let people explore their bodies”, stretchy, mostly lay on your back and not use the reformer to its fullest potential… FRIDAY is for you.
What I was looking for was challenging, form focused, reformer Pilates that tested and toned my body. The Pilates I come from is challenging and fun. It has you working hard and your mind is able to block out the rest of the world because you’re so focused on what you’re doing.
FRIDAY was disappointing to me especially having done years of reformer Pilates. I think this studio has a lot of growth to do in how to structure their classes, appropriately instruct Pilates while ensuring proper Pilates form as well how to really push its clients through a challenging reformer Pilates class.
My home studio leaves me appropriately sore the next 2 days whereas this one left me wondering why I spent the money I did the next 2 days.

I love coming to this location. When I started I was 240lbs, but then I started doing Pilates and I lost 47 lbs. they make you feel welcomed. I was so shy to go at first but they welcome you, help you and make you feel apart of the community. My favorite is Jilian. She made me feel cared about and made me feel like I matter! Thank you for accepting everyone 💖

Jilian is the best! As a weight lifter, the 3 privates with her helped my low back pain, breathing and posture! Even got better squat form and quad activation from the better alignment. 10/10 recommend!

I was visiting family and decided to try Friday Pilates! I absolutely loved this studio, I’ve tried a few in Washington and nothing compares. The natural light to the welcoming instructors were the highlight. The class itself was challenging, my favorite class was with Jilian. She provides several modifications to assist with increasing and reducing difficulty. I will be returning whenever I visit Arizona, thanks for the great experience Friday Pilates Team!

Reformer pilates has quickly become one of my favorite ways to move my body and the inclusive and welcoming environment at Friday Pilates is one of the many reasons why! I started off with a 4 class a month membership and recently upgraded to unlimited because I found myself craving more classes! I love everyone at Friday, thank you!

My mind, my body, and my soul love this place. It combines strength, balance, breath, and mindfulness. I walk in with the weight of the world on my shoulders and literally float out; ok really my legs are shaking as I float out but you get the point.

FRIDAY is the most welcoming pilates studio I have ever attended. If it’s your first class, the instructor will touch base with you and explain how the reformer works. They have morning and afternoon/evening classes. I look forward to attending the classes every day.

I love the diversity and the age of the people in the classes. I’m over 50 and feel it is accessible, yet very challenging. I would recommend to anyone looking for reformer Pilates. Make sure you try the jump board classes if you want to get your heart rate up!

I love this studio! I’ve been coming here since it opened in July and I do feel a difference in my core, posture, and my hip flexors mobility has improved! I feel challenged after each class feeling sore in places I didn’t realize I had muscles in 😅 Also the studio is so freaking cute and the vibe is welcoming for all folks who are in different levels.

I love Friday Pilates. The most beautiful space with knowledge instructors that make you feel a part of the community. Everyday you come in class is different and the instructors give you options within the class to let you scale up or down. Every time I leave class I leave feeling refreshed, lighter while getting a great burn at the same time. I really love this place and the community!

Fridays is a little slice of heaven on 6th and 6th! The instructors are fantastic. They’re incredibly approachable and take the time to explain the reformer, offer modifications, and celebrate your pilates/fitness wins. I love that the instructors offer ways to scale up the work so I can get what I want out of my movement: an intense sweat and shake, a more centering workout, etc. The space is bright and clean, the music is so good, and everyone is super welcoming! This studio is a winner all around!

Loved Friday Pilates! 10/10! The space is beautiful and makes the workout so enjoyable. There is beautiful natural lighting and they do a good job of keeping the temperature comfortable, even in the heat of summer! I've been to most of the teacher's classes and loved all of them. They have a wide array of times to meet most people's needs in terms of scheduling. They make the classes challenging but still fun. I literally tell everyone I meet to try taking a class at Friday! You will love it.

Tried pilates for the first time when Friday opened. And became obsessed! The space is beautiful and comfortable. I’ve been in most of the teachers classes, and they all are wonderful! They are educated in their craft. They help make adjustments for everyone at different levels. Friday Pilates is wonderful for beginners and experts. Just a special place overall! LOVE 💛
