While in Dallas for work I was able to take a private Pilates appointment with Joyce and it was incredible. The studio is in a great location and the instructors are experienced in classical methods. I will definitely return anytime I’m in town. Highly recommend!

I recently attended a first time class here and did not have a great experience. The instructor was on her phone throughout the class and kept providing commentary about her evening plans each time she looked at it. Her attention was pulled on numerous occasions to things happening outside of the large windows and she kept audibly commenting on them which was distracting to me as I wanted to focus on the moves and not look at what was going on elsewhere. She also left the room multiple times. All of these aspects combined to make the class feel less professional and the sequence of exercises less organized than most exercise classes in the Dallas area.

It is clear from the reviews on this page and the experience I witnessed that the instructors care about their clients and have rapport with them, however, even the casual chatting during class was distracting. The fact that they seem to have repeat customers indicates that the instructor style and departure in formality from other studios appeals to some, but it is something I personally did not enjoy. Because of all of the distractions this was probably not the best class for beginners either - the one thing that could be said in favor of beginners attending is that there are a small number of machines so the instructor is always in close proximity to you and can adjust your machine or placement as necessary.

Separately from the in-class experience, I broke out in a severe allergic reaction following the class (will spare you from photos but it was all over where my skin was exposed) and it was the only thing I did differently in my routine that day. I am not saying they do not clean because the instructor was also actively cleaning equipment during class, but whatever they do use did not agree with my sensitive skin.

I truly enjoy going to Classic Pilates and my instructor Shiraz. What first started as a class plays drop in has grown to an appreciation for Pilates. Before I moved here in February I would visit different studios and each time I was being othered and treated differently because I’m plus-size. When in actuality I’ve been practicing Pilates for 2.5 years and began working towards getting my teaching certification. My first day in Shiraz’s class she made me feel welcomed and didn’t treat me like I was in capable of things because of my size. Immediately after I booked my next class and 3 months later I go 2x a week and have a private once a month.

Honest review. Real client
My first time so decided to do private sessions. Absolutely, loved, loved, loved it the environment, instructor, lessons. My runs are stronger. Wish I signed up earlier. Only one complaint is the paid one -hr session. I wasn’t happy when my sessions were shorten after paying for a hour. Nevertheless I enjoyed it.

I have been attending classes at this studio for over a year. It has consistently been one of the best parts of my day. The studio is very clean and well appointed. It's very bright and temperature controlled. The instructors are all amazing; they're very knowledgeable about pilates and they pay attention to each student, this prevents injuries and ensures that we are all getting a challenging work out. There are OFTEN new students with no Pilates experience at the group classes, and the instructors are patient and thorough. I have to specifically mention Shiraz, Carrie, and Alisa, three kind, fun, and tough instructors who are friendly and professional. There is not one negative comment to be made about the studio and these skilled instructors. In their own ways, these instructors teach a class that is fun yet a complete body workout. I have seen a big improvement in my strength and flexibility, and I know it's because of regular classes at the studio. Thank you Shiraz, Carrie, and Alisa for being such a great part of my week.

I have been attending private sessions with Sam at Classic Pilates for several months and I can't speak highly enough of her expertise. Her approach to instructing someone like myself, who had back surgery 20 years ago, has been methodical and incredibly successful. She understands the boundaries (and anxiety) of someone who has had a severe injury and is able to coach accordingly. I have been a Pilates student for 10+ years and Sam's methods have allowed me to build core strength by pushing myself to do exercises that I would never have felt comfortable (or confident!) enough to do. I have never been so strong and healthy. Sam is a true expert in strength training and flexibility through Pilates. On top of that, she is an incredibly kind person!

Instructor talks way too much. Just to others that have attended the class before. Random dog was running through class before it began. Not relaxing to say the least. I wouldn’t book it again.

Classical Pilates is hard to find and this studio delivers. I am here visiting and took a class with Shiraz. She handled the varying levels in the class really nicely and gave a great workout. The team in general was nice and the studio dog is an unexpected and lovely addition.

Class was fine, if I wanted someone to give instructions with 0 correction I would just watch a YouTube video - I’d probably get more enthusiasm from a Youtube video anyways, teacher seemed like he just wanted to leave.

Costumer service was unhelpful and over all felt unwelcomed.

The place is so tiny, I’m sure you know when a new person shows up, I was given no instruction upon entering, nor was I greeted.

Carrie is a gem!! Decided to take a class on a whim, but didn’t eat/drink enough water beforehand (don’t be like me!!). Ended up getting lightheaded, but was met with nothing but kindness from the instructor, she even got me water in the middle of class. 100% recommend this studio for the positive energy alone! The class focused on classical Pilates techniques/form and was the perfect blend of challenge and fun, 10/10!

First time at Classic Pilates Studio, Sam was my instructor and she was super helpful as I hadn’t been on that type of reformer before! Also really like that the class fits only 6 reformers!

If you're searching for an authentic Pilates experience that emphasizes technique, form, and genuine strength building, look no further than Classic Pilates. This studio isn't about quick fixes or trendy gimmicks—it's about the art of Pilates, pure and simple.

From the moment you step into the serene studio, you'll notice the difference. The classes are intimate, almost semi-private, ensuring that every student receives personalized attention from the exceptional instructors.

I've personally felt the transformative effects after each session—I leave feeling taller, stronger, and more connected to my body than ever before. It's not just physical; Classic Pilates nurtures a deep sense of mindfulness and body awareness that carries over into everyday life.

Whether you're a seasoned practitioner or new to (classical) Pilates, Classic Pilates tailors each session to meet your individual needs. It's more than just a workout—it's a holistic experience that leaves you feeling empowered and rejuvenated. If you're ready to sculpt your body and elevate your fitness journey with precision and care, Classic Pilates is the place for you.

(And no, I do not work there and received no compensation for this review.)

I love this place. I mostly go to Carrie’s classes. She’s high energy and very lovely, and most importantly is great at teaching Pilates. I’ve done Pilates for a while, and I still need help, and she’s super helpful addressing adjustments. I also in general really like classical Pilates more than the up-tempo club music style Pilates—personal choice, I still dabble in them—but I find that I’m more focussed on how my body works with the tower/reformer/mat when it’s a smaller class and there’s more one-on-one attention. That’s what I find I get here :)

I’ve been attending classes at Classic Pilates for many years now and cannot say enough good things about it. Thanks to this studio, I found a workout that I’m absolutely hooked to and look forward to sustaining for years to come. The instructors are all well-trained, experienced, and welcoming. They make an effort to know you, learn what your needs are, and help you achieve your goals. This is one of the very few studios around DFW to teach true classical Pilates and I’m so thankful I found it years ago. Classic Pilates is a gem and has become like another family. I look forward to many more years of growing stronger with this crew!

I was interested in Pilates 10 months ago and went to my first class here. I have gone back multiple times a week since! All of the instructors and staff are kind, caring, and educated. They offer many different kinds of Pilates classes and the studio is very clean!

I have been practicing Pilates for years back in the OC, and I could not find a decent Pilates studio in Dallas until now. This spot is legit, with small classes and all the right equipment. The teacher was fantastic with her cues and her sense of humor was a bonus! They ask about prior health issues and know how to accommodate for each student. I can’t wait to get back into the studio.

I love this Pilates studio. I often tell people Alicia Haynes’ reformer class is one of the highlights of my week! She focuses on form and the technique so not only do you feel the workout after, you know you’re not hurting yourself in the process! I wish she had more classes on the schedule! Also wish there was a reformer class offered M-F before 10am. Or an evening class at 7p would be awesome. Would be great for folks who work 9-5/6!

Please avoid this location (particularly Carrie Keep) if you are either starting Pilates for the first time or if you are non-Caucasian. Carrie in particular made my wife made feel so uncomfortable for being 2 min late and throughout the whole session only gave negative and harsh feedback even though it was stated it was my wife’s first time. Definitely not beginner-friendly.

I just discovered this studio and I absolutely love it. The facilities are clean, new and fully equipped. You step into the studio and are immediately greeted with warm smiles. The studio rooms are just the right size to allow enough space but to also create an intimate feeling so you get personalized attention during class. The teacher was encouraging and challenged us, but also modified movements if we were struggling. After class, there were refreshments available as well as work out apparel to shop from.

I really enjoyed my time there and will definitely be going back!

I went to Classic Pilates yesterday for their Barre class at 5:30...it was great! Their prices are reasonable, and the studio is really cute. I have been doing Pilates for several years, and tried numerous places around Dallas, but this way by far one of my favorites. They had these awesome lavendar wash cloths for after class. I would reccommend giving them a try, I found their class schedule is on their website.
