I want to personally thank Ida for making me feel so welcome at this studio! This was only my second reformer class, and my first time here. I had tried a class elsewhere before, but this one felt so much more engaging and exactly what I was looking for. The environment was soothing, supportive, and still gave me the right amount of challenge. I’ve loved my experience so far and definitely plan on coming back!

I’ve been going to Be Pilates studio for a very long time and I can’t recommend it enough! The space is always clean and welcoming, which makes such a difference the moment you walk in. It has this calm, happy vibe that instantly puts you at ease.

The instructor (Annie) is absolutely wonderfull. She knows how to challenge you in all the right ways. She’ll definitely kick your butt, but trust me, you’ll feel amazing afterward. I’ve seen real results and never once regretted showing up, even on days I felt like skipping.

If you’re someone who’s been hesitant or nervous to try Pilates, this is your sign to go for it. You won’t regret it.

Be Pilates is my favorite pilates studio. I love the teachers and community at this studio so much. Each teacher has the freedom to bring their personal style and creativity to class. This range allowed me to really learn how to strengthen and use my body in novel and challenging ways. I am grateful to Ida for creating such a welcoming studio, and to all the teachers for countless amazing classes. I met so many people who have become real friends through this studio.

Be Pilates is the greatest pilates studio ever! I can't say enough about this place. 3 years ago I tried it out on a whim with my daughter and very quickly got hooked on this low impact but challenging exercise and this welcoming, warm place. The instructors are incredibly talented and the vibe is friendly and non-judgmental. In the wake of the tragic Eaton Fire, the studio has been an invaluable source of light, community love and sanity for so many of us affected. It all flows from owner/instructor Ida, a truly kind soul, who will lead you on a journey of self healing and self care that will leave you feeling better every day if you allow it. Go in a with an open mind and it will change your life for the better as it has mine.

Ida has created such a welcoming and warm environment for everyone! If you are looking for a new Pilates studio in the Pasadena area, look no further because Be Pilates is the best! They are expanding too so getting into classes will be seamless!

Two years ago when I tried my first class at Be Pilates I had no idea it would change my life! This is a privately-owned space - not some bg corporat chain and it makes all the difference. What an incredible group of teachers, the most beautiful space (clean & modern), I've made friends and transformed my body. My only challenge was that the classes would fill quickly but now that they're opening Studio Be next door that's no longer a concern! Thank you Ida and all - you're truly the best!

Love love the studio! I went on a summer special and I'm continuing because it is so wonderful.. The staff is amazing and very helpful for people at any level. There are a multitude of classes each day to choose from with 3 different levels. The studio is immaculate and the reformers brand new. There is plenty of room and with this covid world no one feels cramped. They utilize the Mindbody App which is very easy to maneuver! There is also a parking lot available.

Absolutely have enjoyed my time at this studio! I started with a free class in January and was hooked. Went on to get an 8-pack and then doing their month unlimited. I tried a number of the instructors and found the ones that worked best for what I was looking for.

Jackie - wow. I looked forward to every single class I got to take of hers. She knows her moves and is able to provide modifications. You really get a great work out with her. Her classes are intense but I was totally there for the it. I love how she will help correct you to ensure you are doing the moves correctly. She is super sweet and funny, too!

Kristi - positively phenomenal! Such a great upper leg workout every class. Loved her classes, too! Very kind and great at explaining the movements. Sadly she left the studio but perhaps she will return.

Annie - looking for the sweetest? Look no further. Annie always made me feel welcomed and she always had a smile on her face. I swear, she knows everyone who goes in there by name. She may be petite but her classes will work you over!

Emily - (I say this with love) I dreaded her classes...every...time! But for good reason, super intense and tons of core work. After her classes, I always felt so accomplished and new the results would come. And they did!

I only took a few of Dana's classes and they were also lovely. Not as intense as Jackie and Emily but oh man my glutes were on fire the next day. She works a lot on stability and balance.

I took Tori's class twice and loved her sweet nature. She made me feel very in-tune with my body and peaceful. Her slow-flo was perfection.

I was sad to see an increase in the studios pricing, perhaps if it goes down I will rejoin again.

I highly recommend this studio!

I've been to a LOT of Pilates studios all over the country, and this is one of THE best studios. It is a very classical (and classy) form of Pilates, and I love that. I love that there are no microphones, no yelling, and no loud music. The instructors are incredible, both in their skill and their presence. The workout can seem more subtle than other types of exercise (ie, you're not sweating and huffing and puffing), but it is actually extremely effective and holistically good for your mind and body. I find this type of Pilates wonderful for gaining not only physical strength but also inner strength and body-love. All of our body shapes are beautiful! The only thing I would love to see are jump boards!! I love jumpboard Pilates. But even without that, I will be back as much as I can! So thankful for this place in Pasadena. Feel free to open another in Long Beach/Cerritos/Lakewood/Seal Beach ;))

Very cute studio with great instructors! I have been a few times now and have been had 4 different instructors. It’s great that every session is really different and I feel like I’m exploring a new area of my body each time.

Right now masks are required, we wipe down the reformers before and after each session and they are spaced apart.

BePilates offers classes that are fun, challenging and always different to keep you motivated. The studio is beautiful, super clean and the teachers are very positive. I've learned a lot about how to push my body while keeping good form. I have quite a few injuries and every teacher has provided safe adjustments while keeping the workout challenging enough. Love this studio.

If you have not taken a class with Kelly, Danielle, Scott or Ida you are missing out! This studio is adorably chic and SO clean! The teachers above are shining stars, truly amazing. They keep classes interesting and challenging! You will always leave class feeling like it was time well spent and a workout well earned. Parking is usually easy, except on Saturday and Sunday mornings when you compete with Millie's customers. The studio has a changing room and bathroom, excellent AC/ventilation & lighting! Added bonus, pretty art!

Great Pilates Studio. Great instructors, the place is very clean and beautiful. I wish I had started reformer a long time ago instead of doing Cardio Barre or similar classes that are mostly painful and had to drag myself to go several times a week.

I honestly can’t say enough great things about Be Pilates. This was my first time ever doing Pilates and working out with a reformer. Ida and every other instructor have made my experience such a good one. I have a recent history of hip problems, having had 3 surgeries in the last 2 years, my movements have become limited and I really have had to start building back all my muscles from scratch. Every instructor has been so alert and so kind to give me modifications when needed, always looking out for me. I’m about a month in and I already feel amazing improvements. Also I have to mention how beautiful the studio is designed. It’s so refreshing, peaceful, and cozy all in one, making such a cool vibe! I can’t wait to continue and eventually be able to start the “all level classes”! Thank you so much to everyone at Be Pilates! You guys are really amazing!

I am new to Pilates. I am not flexible or athletic at all and did I mention uncoordinated:( I was so scared to try Pilates given my athletic inability but Be Pilates made me feel so comfortable. Even as a beginner. I don't like gyms, and I have tried yoga classes and cycling classes in the past. I hope Be Pilates is my way to loose weight and can work as a personal trainer. I can see how the reformer machines help you gain strength and flexibility. I look forward to to my body transforming! The studio is so clean and inviting. I love the decor! Who doesn't love a cactus. It reminds me of a cool weho spot but in pasadena.

Gorgeous studio, good vibes, great music, super clean and best reformer class in Pasadena. I have taken a few classes from the studio owner Ida and she is such a good instuctor. Very passionate, knowledgeable, fun, and patient. The classes are so fun, time flies, but the results are there. Definitely give this pilates studio in Pasadena a try. They have a lot of great packages too!

I LOVE THIS STUDIO!! I’ve been doing Pilates for over 2 years, and I’m so happy to have found this place. It’s so clean, pretty, and they have the best group reformer classes in Pasadena! The instructor is extremely sweet, and teaches the classes so well. I love when instructors pay close attention to the students and give specific directions about keeping form, and she does exactly that. It’s only been a couple weeks and I’ve gone 7 times, ha! I get such good workouts, and am able to modify when i need to (bc of a knee injury I have). This studio is a blessing to Pasadena, and I couldn’t be happier to have joined!
