This was one of the most frustrating experiences I’ve had with any studio.

Today, the rain was unbelievably heavy — the kind where visibility is low and driving feels unsafe. Even then, I still drove 30 minutes to get to this class. I arrived at 5:37 PM, which is only 2 minutes into the 5-minute grace period.

Yet, the instructor, Ricardo, refused to let me enter.

What’s the point of having a grace period if it’s not honored?
Why advertise 5 minutes if someone who arrives 2 minutes into it is still turned away?

Rules need to be applied with common sense, especially when:
• the weather is extreme,
• the client drove a long distance to get there,
• the delay is minimal, and
• the person is a regular who consistently attends.

None of that mattered. There was no flexibility, no understanding, and no basic courtesy. Just a rigid “no,” despite being within the policy.

I paid for this class. I made every effort to show up. And I’ve been here many times. Treating loyal clients like this makes me question whether this studio cares about customer experience at all.

Deeply disappointed — 1 star.

I’m incredibly disappointed with my experience at this studio today.

There is a 5-minute grace period, and I arrived only 2 minutes into it (5:37 PM). Despite being within the allowed window, I was still denied entry without any reasonable explanation.

What makes this even worse is that today wasn’t a normal day
It was pouring rain, extremely heavy and dangerous to drive in.
I drove 30 minutes through that weather just to make it to class. I still arrived within the grace period, and yet I was turned away as if none of that effort mattered.

The instructor, Ricardo, showed no empathy about the severe weather, no understanding of the situation, and no flexibility — even though their own policy clearly allows for a grace period. The refusal felt harsh, dismissive, and completely inconsiderate.

If a studio chooses to offer a 5-minute grace period, then turning away someone who arrives 2 minutes into it during extreme weather makes the rule feel meaningless and unfair.

I’ve come to this studio many times, but after today, I genuinely don’t feel valued as a customer at all. I paid for this class and made every effort to show up safely.

Extremely disappointing — 1 star.

I’ve been coming to this studio regularly, so this experience was especially disappointing.

Despite the extreme rain today, I still made the effort to come—and arrived at 5:37 PM, literally 2 minutes after 5min late policy time. Considering the dangerous weather conditions, I expected at least a small amount of understanding or flexibility.

Instead, the instructor, Ricardo, refused to let me enter at all.
No empathy, no alternative solution, not even acknowledgment that I was a loyal, returning client who showed up in a storm.

I completely understand having a late policy. But policies should be applied with common sense, especially:
• when the delay is only 2 minutes,
• when the weather is unusually severe, and
• when the person arriving late is a regular who consistently shows up on time.

The lack of care and the rigid “no exceptions” attitude felt unnecessarily harsh. It honestly made me feel like my loyalty and past visits meant nothing.

I’ve recommended this studio to others before, but after today, I genuinely need to reconsider whether this is a place that values its clients at all.

Very disappointing experience — 1 star.

I booked this class through ClassPass and was really disappointed by how the situation was handled.

There was extremely heavy rain, and despite leaving early, I arrived at 5:37 PM – just 2 minutes after the 5 min late policy The instructor, Ricardo, refused to let me join the class at all.

I understand that studios have policies about late arrivals, but in this case there was:
• Unusually severe weather and safety concerns on the road
• Only a 2-minute delay
• No flexibility, no grace period, and no empathy shown

Instead of understanding the situation, I was simply turned away at the door. No attempt to offer an alternative, no partial accommodation, and no acknowledgment that I still made the effort to come through the storm.

This kind of rigid, zero-flexibility approach does not feel customer-friendly, especially when the delay is minimal and clearly due to uncontrollable circumstances like extreme weather.

For a service-based business, especially one working with ClassPass, I would expect at least a small grace period, clearer communication of policies, and a more considerate attitude toward clients who are doing their best to arrive safely and on time.

Unfortunately, because of this experience with Ricardo and the way it was handled, I can only leave a 1-star review.

The girls at the front are really rude a
And the instructors are not very helpful. They pretty much tell you to look at the person next to you and follow their lead….. ummm hello??? Then why am I paying to have an instructor?? In that case I’ll just buy the machine and watch a video at home.

I’m new to Pilates and am so grateful for this opportunity to save some money and be able to sign up for unlimited classes. The Little Tokyo location is just 2 blocks from my home which is the most important factor for me; I need something close and convenient since my building doesn’t have a gym. Today the instructor was also the owner of the establishment and my favorite classes so far. Thanks for creating this space for DTLA now 7 years strong!

So far very good at Club Pilates/Little Tokyo!!

The customer service displayed by Sandi and Kayla was superb! I have now completed 3 classes and especially appreciate the close attention displayed by Morgan and Ann. Ann took time this morning to sometimes take to the reformer showing what good looks like, which really helped to have proper stance and posture moving through the exercises/poses. She also took time to notice that I am ready for the more intermediate class, which I appreciate!

My experience with the intro class, first off I was given a proper greeting but things took a turn after that. It was just me and two other people in the class, also it was my first time so naturally I didn’t know what to do. For some reason the instructor by the name of Ricardo was giving his attention to the others and I was left to try and follow what the other did. I felt completely ignored. Not the best introduction to Pilates in my opinion and also not the best farewell as I asked questions on pricing and class availability I started heading torwards the door and looked back and said thank you with an open smile, and again ignored, the instructor was completely disrespectful, luckily I found a place nearby in the little Tokyo area and immediately felt at home. I don’t recommended.

Club Pilates Little Tokyo is absolutely fantastic! The studio itself is clean, bright, and has a wonderful vibe. The staff are incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, making you feel welcome from the moment you walk in. I'm lucky enough to have it in my apartment complex, but even if I didn't, the location is super convenient.

I've had the pleasure of taking several classes, and I've been consistently impressed. Morgan is a tremendous instructor – she's incredibly attentive, and each class targets different muscle groups in unique and effective ways. I've also taken a class with Helayna, and she provided a really challenging and rewarding workout.

Overall, I highly recommend Club Pilates Little Tokyo. It's a great place to get a killer workout with amazing instructors!

Also free parking validation if you park at AVA Little Tokyo!

This Pilates club is overpriced, and there are much better options out there with more reasonable rates. On top of that, the customer service is disappointing. I arrived 9 minutes late for my class, and they refused to let me join, even though I had already paid for it and there were available spots.

I understand being on time is important, but life happens, and sometimes people run late—especially when they have a busy schedule. But instead of being accommodating or offering a solution, they simply denied me access to the class I had booked.

For the price they charge, I expected a much better experience, both in terms of flexibility and customer service. There are plenty of other places with friendlier staff and way better policies. I won’t be coming back, and I definitely wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone looking for a studio that actually values its clients.

I had the worst experience at this Pilates club. Their policies—or whatever they call them—are absolutely ridiculous and make zero sense to me. Not only do I pay for my sessions out of my own pocket, but when I arrived 11 minutes late, they refused to let me join the class, even though there were open spots and I had booked my place in advance. I have an extremely busy schedule, and unfortunately, I couldn’t make it on time, but instead of being understanding, they just denied me access to the class I had already paid for.

The woman at the front desk said she would “do something helpful” for me. And guess what? The only “helpful” thing she could offer—aside from the fact that I wasted my money on a class I wasn’t allowed to take—was reassuring me that they wouldn’t charge me an extra fee for not showing up. Apparently, they charge an additional fee if you book a class and don’t attend. But since I actually showed up, I was “graciously” spared this extra charge. Wow, what incredible generosity.

So let’s sum it up: I paid for the class, there was an open spot, I was physically present, but they still didn’t let me participate just because I was 11 minutes late. What a joke.

This is my last month at this fitness club, and I will never come back. I strongly advise everyone to look elsewhere—there are way better options with far better customer service. Their attitude toward customers is absolutely unacceptable. Avoid this place at all costs.

I attended a class taught by Morgan, who is a regular instructor here at Little Tokyo but was substituting at Club Pilates in Monrovia. Unfortunately, my experience with her was uncomfortable and disappointing. Her approach came across as dismissive and elitist. She only gave corrections to certain people while ignoring others, myself included.

At one point, I was on the wrong side of the reformer and performing the movements incorrectly. Despite making eye contact with me, Morgan didn’t bother to help or correct me. Instead, she stayed on her reformer, focused on herself, and ignored those of us struggling on the other side of the room. It wasn’t until I stood up mid-exercise to move my box to the correct side that she finally intervened—but only after I’d already started fixing it myself.

It was clear that those of us on her side of the studio were left confused and struggling to follow her instructions. Rather than adjust her teaching style to help us feel comfortable, she introduced complicated moves that were difficult to follow, especially for people unfamiliar with her methods.

The atmosphere Morgan created felt exclusive and unwelcoming. I’ve taken classes at other studios, even with the owner herself, and she goes out of her way to make everyone feel included and supported. Unfortunately, Morgan’s attitude seems more suited to a studio that prioritizes exclusivity over inclusivity.

I can hardly put into words how incredible Kelsey is as a Pilates instructor (and as a person). My arms/legs are shaking as I type this, and it's a testament to just how effective her classes are! Every session with her is an exhilarating experience—never dull or routine. Kelsey brings a depth of knowledge that ensures each workout challenges every inch of your body, pushing you to become stronger and more resilient. I rarely feel challenged in fitness classes, but Kelsey is a complete game-changer. She knows how to push you to your limits in the best way possible. Her unique approach makes each class invigorating and fulfilling.

What truly sets her apart is the motivation she inspires. I always look forward to her classes, knowing I'm going to get an amazing workout that never sacrifices the core principles of Pilates. I’ve taken classes all over the world, and I can confidently say that Kelsey makes a remarkable difference. Her passion and dedication are palpable, making each class not just a workout, but a source of inspiration.

It's funny because I don’t think she fully realizes how exceptional she is. Kelsey truly is one of a kind, and I feel lucky to have met her and be part of her classes. She’s a force to be reckoned with, and her impact will be hard to beat!

I want to thank Club Pilates for consistently selecting knowledgeable instructors who genuinely focus on making us stronger and healthier. It’s clear that a lot of thought and care goes into building such a strong team. This commitment not only enhances our experience but truly empowers us to reach our fitness goals. I appreciate the dedication and passion that each instructor brings to their classes!

When I first started, I loved it here. Now,
I find myself canceling classes bc I don’t like the instructors & the class times are inconvenient. There’s always tons of hair on the floors and mats. We spend too much time on the mats, actually. I pay for a membership to reformer Pilates, not mat Pilates. I’m probably going to cancel my unlimited membership here and find another place.

Update: I’ve canceled my membership. The instructors & the people checking us in, have confused me with another black lady about 5x. I know this place isn’t all that diverse but come on. It’s 2024. They can’t seem to keep the good instructors on board. I’m switching to Lagree.

Club Pilates Little Tokyo has been my happy place since they opened! I know I am in good hands no matter who is teaching. Instructors come and go, but the one fantastic constant has been Ricardo. His classes (when I can get in!) can be challenging but so rewarding. I feel so motivated and amped for the rest of my day after. I’ve been doing weekly private sessions with Ricardo for the past 2 years and his knowledge of how to work around my scoliosis and relieve pain has made a huge difference in my day to day. He always makes time for me even when he is swamped with classes and teacher training. He is so caring and puts a smile on my face even on days it’s hard to. I don’t know what I would do without him!

Revised from a different instructor given improvement from previously reviewed instructor. This truthful and honest one star review is soley based on one instructor Ricardo.

I refrained from writing this review because I did not want to get back lash or retaliated against from Ricardo which he is known to do but as management points out reviews are highly encouraged for improvement of the instructor. Hopefully, this will be the case.

Unfortunately, my honest review of Ricardo are not unique- if you read reviews on here and Yelp, others comments and experience are consistent. Ricardo is known to belittle clients, talk down to them, yell at them, and ignore them during his class if he is angered by them, which is easily and for no warranted reason. There have been many times in my loyal 3 years where I have helped other clients with springs or position because I felt SO bad how Ricardo treated them. Honestly, sadly I didn't speak up until now because in front of my face he didn't treat me like that until now. He irrately and so suddenly yelled at me, cut me off mid calm conversation, and threatened me. I was kindly talking with front office staff when he, out of nowhere turns the music up full blast for 6 secs to drown out our convo and then walks over to me from the studio class side and threatens me for no warranted reason, other than he couldn't control his anger and retaliated in a vindictive manner because he didn't like the truth I was kindly speaking. He also adamantly claimed private sessions are not visible only they can see them, which isn't true. I had 5 sessions left and they can't locate all of them. He refused to see my screen shots of the app where it showed my sessions before and didn't even know how to check after all that. I was shocked, flabbergasted, and saddened that I had been so utterly disrespected by a studio I used to like coming to.

But sometimes things must come to an end. And being yelled at for no reason, being treated unprofessionally, dismissed, disregarded, disrespected and threatened by Ricardo because he could not control his temper is unacceptable and no one should be treated like that. And funny but, my good intentions of trying to greet him as a bitter sweet goodbye since I signed up with him 3 years ago turned into pure negativity by Ricardo.

I do want to point out that the manager has been amazing in helping me through this sudden, unexpected transition. She has made this horrendously, awful experience much better and I am able to complete the end of my membership and some of my private sessions, so I am very thank for that. Very much appreciated for all of your time, help, and sincere attention to this matter. Have a beautiful and blessed day. 🩷 #spreadlove

Never a disappointing session. Took a class with Alexandra and she took her time to guide a newbie like me. Music choices were so 90s and I loved them. Keep it up!

I love reformer Pilates. It’s the best workout for my body. Alexandra and Kelsey are who I’ve had classes with and I adore them both for their great energy, attentiveness and killer playlists. I appreciate their corrections to improve my form, it makes all the difference. What was I doing before Pilates? Regular degular workouts that were boraaaang. 10/10 would recommend wherever you are in your workout journey.

Ricardo (Little Tokyo) displayed unprofessionalism when checking me in. He is not a great representation of the organization.

I really enjoy my Pilates class. I’m a little older (59) and a little slower but I find Kelsey’s instructions to be clear, challenging, and evenly paced. The Little Tokyo studio is always clean and the staff are always friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!

I’m entering my third month at Club Pilates Little Tokyo and it has been a fun ride. I find myself giggling when I’m challenged and I love that I am free to do that in this environment without judgement. I’m a person that enjoys working out and reformer pilates kicks my butt without the soreness because the workout is balanced. Due to the time I have for classes, Alexandra, Kelsey and Ronie are the instructors and they are truly amazing at what they do. From the instruction to corrections, they help me to perform at my best.

Club Pilates has been a wonderful experience because of some great instructors. Crystal P makes coming back to class and long-term commitment to Pilates so worth it and rewarding. I love the clear instruction and the helpful corrections so that I can learn the exercises correctly. Ricardo is also fantastic and has amazing energy. I started with back pain from herniated discs and have gotten so much stronger with less pain since I started.

Alexandra was awesome‼️ She was energetic, informative, and sensitive to my needs; a real PRO😉I will be returning for more Pilates Therapy. Thank you Alexandra❣️

Today Alexandra introduced a few new exercises. I absolutely am in awe of her professionalism and her her ability to get the best out of me. Although I was a 3 sport athlete in high Cho, pre school and played college football this type of exercise is new to my body. I think Alexandra is terrific. I am so glad i have the chance to learn from her. ♥️

Club Pilates is a fantastic studio with a selection of classes for ANYONE in their pilates journey. I started going to this studio last April and even after 100+ classes I continue to grow, learn, and strengthen my body every class. The staff is excellent, always greeting with a friendly face + positive attitude. This community is truly an uplifting place and a highlight in my routine!

Awesome pilates studio in the heart of Little Tokyo - all of the instructors are very knowledgeable and offer a wide range of class experiences. Each session feels like you are walking away learning something new and finding a new way to maximize your workout. Personally love classes taught by Esther, Emily, both Crystal Lee and Crystal Pack, and Kelsey!

I've been at Club Pilates for two months now and I'm hooked. I especially love classes with Emily. She really pushes me and works with everyone to get their best form. I am currently experiencing some hip tightness from an injury 3 years ago and when I informed her before class, she worked with my limitations and kept checking in with me. I am always excited to take classes with her

“My story about Pilates:

Impressions from my Pilates workout with instructor Roberto were simply delightful. Greeting me with a smile, he attentively assisted in filling out the forms and courteously showed where to place my shoes. The entire process was infused with politeness and care.

The workout flowed smoothly thanks to Roberto’s meticulous corrections. His precise instructions on hand and leg positions made the session highly effective, while his supportive demeanor created a comfortable environment. In the end, I can confidently say it was a wonderful experience. As an instructor myself, I appreciate professionalism and attention to detail, and Roberto unquestionably embodied these qualities in the session.”

Worst customer service!! My friend and I decided to do Pilates together and booked their intro class in the little Tokyo location. Since I live in Hollywood and she lives East LA, and this location is in between where we live, so we think this is a perfect spot for both of us. After booking the appointment, someone named Emma from that studio reached out to me and asked me where I live, I said Hollywood. And she said I should book the WeHo location not the little Tokyo one, but I explained to her that I preferred little Tokyo since I work out with my friend who lives in East LA, and WeHo location is too far for her. She insisted that I should go to WeHo, then went ahead and cancelled my booking without telling me. I asked her why they cancelled my booking, but totally got ignored by them. This is so unprofessional!!! Worst customer service I’ve ever encounter!!!

Having just spent 10 weeks in LA, I can say without a doubt that my almost daily Club Pilates ritual was one of my favorite parts of each day. I feel much stronger now than when I began in mid-February! The studio is very clean, welcoming, and there is free covered parking. I loved that both the instructors (shout out to Zoe, Bisi, Esther, Trish, Devon, and Ricardo for great and challenging classes!) and the clients were all different body types. I will definitely return as a client when back in LA again later this year.

Be prepared to have to literally cancel your credit card in order to cancel your subscription with this studio. They have no regard for you as a person and just see you as a dollar sign.
Trish always taught great classes, Devon is very creepy. The reformers are very close together which isn't great but it's a good easy morning workout if you're not looking to break a real sweat.
I would certainly recommend taking their classes through Class Pass rather than signing up for a subscription membership through them because you will be signing on for a lifetime membership and they will be petty and rude about you cancelling. So petty that one time I came in for an 8am class (after trying to cancel and being told I couldn't) and Ricardo told me that I wasn't on the class list and that I had to leave. I was and had a confirmation email for the class, he had removed me from the class before I got there just to mess with me.

Make sure to bring grip socks because they will not tell you. You will have to buy it in their store. Nothing is free. They say free intro class but will still get some form of compensation from you. $17 is the minimum cost for the socks they sell. Big rip off. Ricardo is also very rude and racist. Don’t bother attending his session if you’re black.
