PureCore was my first time doing a reformer class and I had the absolute best experience. Sharon was a fantastic teacher and really took the time to not only break things down, but make sure that everyones form was correct. I felt comfortable asking questions and trying new things, which sometimes is hard/intimidating to do at other organizations. I will definitely be back!

I recently visited Pure Core Pilates as a newcomer excited to try Pilates for the first time. I found their introductory offer—2 mat Pilates classes for $49—and thought it would be a great way to get started. When I booked my first class for Saturday, October 19 at 10 AM, I made it clear that I was completely new to Pilates and needed guidance.

When I arrived, I stated that I was new and this was my very first encounter with Pilates. I was simply directed to a bench without further explanation. I followed instructions, did the class, and enjoyed it. However, after the 60-minute session, I asked about the next steps to continue with the special offer I’d signed up for. To my surprise, the instructor then told me that I had been placed in the wrong class and that it was their mistake for not checking my registration more carefully.

Afterward, I was contacted by Mari Dawson, who initially apologized for the mix-up and suggested we’d “figure it out.” I later learned that I had attended a reformer class, which apparently costs more, though I had no idea there were different types of classes. Mari then claimed I should have known I was supposed to be in a mat class—even though, as a newcomer, I had no way of knowing which was which. She then informed me she would charge me $52 for the class I’d mistakenly attended and would not honor the 2-for-$49 deal.

When I expressed that I simply wanted the introductory deal I’d signed up for, Mari refused, saying her instructors needed to be paid. I explained that I’d made it clear I was new and had expected some guidance. She still refused to honor the original special and insisted I should have asked, even though I was very clear that I didn’t know what I was doing. It was incredibly unprofessional and frustrating to be blamed for their mistake, and it felt like she was more focused on charging me than on making things right.

To top it off, my $52 payment didn’t even cover the second mat class in the original deal. I ended up calling a nearby studio, Club Pilates, and learned they offer 8 sessions per month for the same price Mari wanted to charge me for just 4.

If you’re new to Pilates, be cautious with Pure Core Pilates. They offer no guidance, don’t honor their advertised specials, and may place the blame on you for their own errors. I do not recommend doing business with this organization.

I came to PureCore Pilates in December 2022 because of issues related to energy, memory and overall health. After a few months I begin to feel the results but then in May 2023 I was diagnosed with Parkinsons disease. PureCore has been an outlet that I needed. PureCore Pilates has helped with my balance, posture, energy, and confidence. The owner and instructors are amazing and have supported me from day one. They have defiantly played a part in my health. Today I wake up with Parkinson's but
I strive to not let it consume my life. It does not define me but is a part of me that I try to manage and PureCore Pilates has defiantly helped with that. The best decision i made for my health was walking into PureCore Pilates. Thanks everyone for the support.

I am new to the studio and area but have tried the mat class with Tristan and reformer with Reshma. Both classes were great and the studio is friendly and cute! When I initially reached out for information I received a phone call consultation to help me get oriented. Definitely recommend!

Though a beginner on my very first session, my instructor Karen was incredibly patient and kept a decent pace while I learned the lingo. She also challenged me a little more as the session progressed as she saw my comfort level increased. Will be returning!

I've been working out at Corevelo for over four years, and I wouldn't consider going anywhere else. I love the changes in my body including increased strength and flexibility, the small group atmosphere, the emphasis on safety and cleanliness, and the attractive studio. The staff is very knowledgeable and personable. Definitely a five star experience!

An increase in bone density is something I did not expect from Pilates. But that is what happened! Have had osteopenia for years … 75 now and I fit the profile. But my last bone density showed I was building bone. No prescription meds. Just calcium and multivitamins. And yes… Pilates is my main exercise.

I took an excellent virtual class today with instructor Monica. My daughter and I love this class because of the clear instruction and flow of the session. CoreVelo has nailed it with this Zoom version of Monica's pilates class :)

I’ve been a client since they opened, Mari and Vicki are fantastic owners and instructors - always keeping it fresh and innovative. Even though I am in a group class Mari is aware of each of our “quirks” and adapts the different movements individually as needed. My back has never been better!

We went to go check out the studio because we are interested in cycling. When we got there we couldn't find exactly where it was and called them. The girl that answered was helping us find it over the phone for about 2 minutes. All of a sudden she tells us if we could come back later because she's going on a lunch break. We drove there to check it out and possibly sign up and she blew us off. Terrible customer service. Who does that?
