I took my first Pilates class at MyPILATESStrong 15 months ago, and I kick myself every day for not starting two years earlier. I’m in the best shape I’ve been in over 10 years—down 20 pounds, multiple dress sizes, and feeling STRONG!

Even with previous workout routines like HIIT and other high-intensity/BPM-focused programs, nothing compares to this. The instructors truly believe in you. They care about your injuries and limitations, work with your body, and support your journey at your own pace. Most importantly, they’re genuinely invested in you.

San Elijo Hills is such a charming little town, and parking is a breeze. The studio is set up perfectly—clean, welcoming, and equipped with well-maintained reformers that meet all my needs. What I love most is the variety of class levels offered—there’s truly something for everyone. The atmosphere is anything but pretentious; everyone is welcomed with open arms. Each instructor brings their own unique style, making every class feel fresh, personal, and often entertaining.

The icing on the cake for me? I recently went skiing for the first time in over seven years. I cruised down the mountain effortlessly, and the only thought running through my mind was: “THANK YOU, PILATES.” I wasn’t sore, I wasn’t injured—I was STRONG.

Thank you, MyPILATESStrong, for bringing this opportunity to our beautiful town!

Love this Pilates studio! Super clean studio with amazing instructors who help you modify moves to match your level - whether you need to dial it back or kick things up a notch. I also highly recommend their level-up workshops. They are the perfect chance to polish your form and get all your questions answered.

I am so grateful to have this amazing studio in our neighborhood! The equipment is great, the studio is clean & organized and the instructors are the best part. Every one of them has a unique style and I love that every class you take is different. It is a great full body workout that leaves you feeling a good sore afterwards. I highly recommend!!

Best Pilates studio I have ever joined. I love all the instructors. I especially love Whitney, she's so fun and makes class go by fast but meaningful. My body always thanks me later but also cries because it's sore. All the instructors are wonderful. Andrew, Yuri, Kimberly. They are amazing. You will thank yourself later. I went back into Pilates after not doing it for 6 years and immediately felt like I wasn't judged for forgetting or being out of shape.

This is such a quaint beautiful little pilates studio in the heart of San Elijo. Which is makes really accessible to Encinitas, Cardiff, Elfin Forest and Carlsbad.

Fantastic friendly non-intimidating instructors that makes it fun and all the while getting in shape and feeling better. Definitely one of my faves and will keep coming back!

Unfortunately the customer service is terribly lacking. I would have liked to return here in the future but their attitude is pretty horrible. I signed up for a membership specifically because they offered a Sunday midday class. Most studios don’t and it’s the only time I know I can go consistently. My first Sunday, they canceled the class with very little notice. The teacher got sick. It happens, so I lost a week of paid membership, I didn’t complain. Then a few months later I noticed the Sunday midday class wasn’t listed. I assumed it was another sick teacher situation so I waited to try again and when I realized it wasn’t back on the schedule the following weeks, I canceled my membership 5 days into the month (on a Saturday when I realized there was still no Sunday class) and I expected to pay out the rest of the month without issue. They have a 30 day cancelation policy. I canceled with 25 days. Not to mention I lost a week at the front of my membership (that I paid for) due to a late cancel on their part. They informed me that technically I would have 55 days left to pay for because I didn’t meet the 30 day deadline. I informed them it was because I was giving them the benefit of the doubt that the class was coming back since it had not been communicated that their studio schedule was cut back. They said it was not their job to inform us of changes, that it was my job to check their ”social feed” so I was expected to have done that and cancel 5 days sooner or pay for additional months. They repeatedly reminded me that I had taken classes and signed a contract, to which I agreed (and paid for those classes). I was simply asking for a 5 day grace period given the circumstances and to only pay that final month. Then they went on to whine that 5 days is almost 25% of a month and so on. After many, many very long emails from them telling me it was my fault for not checking their social feed, or that they’re just following what other studios do as industry standard, or exaggerating the time difference, and taking zero accountability, they are taking 55 days of class money that I cannot use instead of simply charging me for this final month. But they threw in some emojis to the emails to make their blame game sound friendly. Really unfortunate service. I canceled April 20th and they’ll still be taking my money in June.

ADDITION (since a reply option doesn't exist) - Thank you studio for disclosing private contractural information about my account in a public forum in an effort to make me look in the wrong. At least when doing this publicly, you were much more professional in language than you were to me privately, so thank you for the change in tone, it is appreciated. As as you noted, my last billing is May (which goes until June 15), therefore as I explained, I will be paying for classes in June I cannot use because I canceled in April. Best of luck.

Love! Love! Love! Feeling Great, have lost considerable amount of weight and BMI is down too! Instructors are fabulous and always willing to help you get the most out of your workouts and teach you how to hold your body, muscles, and ways to adjust for any injuries (mine are in the shoulder). The killer classes (this is beginner but is killer for me. LOL), intro +, and technique classes all provide exactly what I'm in need of! Thanks to all! <3 my PilatesSTRONG!

This studio is exactly what I’ve been needing! The best combo of stretching and strengthening… with great instructors, beautiful and clean space. My body is beginning to show signs of transformation after just 4 weeks and I’m obsessed. Only thing I would change is more early morning classes so I can go before work. 💕

I joined My PilatesSTRONG four months ago and love it! After visiting their website I downloaded the app, created a profile and signed up for a free intro class with Kim. She focused on the principles of Pilates and created a safe space to learn. I then signed up for one of their membership packages and took beginner classes 3 to 5 times a week. I now take intermediate classes and am still learning. I was looking for a gentle but challenging workout that would give me results and I found it at this studio. This studio is clean, has a great selection of classes, and amazing instructors.

I am new to Pilates and I’m really enjoying this studio. It’s very clean, welcoming and the instructors are great. I’ve done yoga and lifted weights before but have hurt myself. I feel like Pilates has the benefits of both those exercises without the risk of injury.

After practicing reformer Pilates at another local studio for more than six years, I decided it was time for a change. After researching Pilates studios in the area, I chose
myPilates Strong.

Immediately after taking an Introductory class with Kimberly, who is an amazing instructor, I purchased a class package.

I'm so happy to have discovered this terrific studio! I intend to become a regular and will share PilatesSTRONG with all of my friends who are looking for a great workout!!

A few weeks ago I had my very first ever Pilates class, and I am hooked! It is an amazing work out and complements cardio and yoga workouts. Evelyn is an amazing human being and has opened up a beautiful studio in San Elijo Hills. The instructors that I worked with so far are awesome and are very dedicated to their craft. There is a great variety of classes available at different times throughout the day. If you’ve never taken a class, you definitely should try one and make sure you try it with this studio. You’ll be hooked too!!

So thankful this studio opened in San Elijo Hills. It's my first time trying Pilates and I'm so glad I did. I'm always sore from my sessions. Sore in a great way. The instructors are all very kind and knowledgeable. The studio is also very clean. If you haven't checked it out you should. Believe me, you won't regret it.

Beautiful new studio with knowledgeable instructors. I take 4 classes a week and not one has been a disappointment! As a working person, I appreciate the lunch-time classes, but they also offer many choices throughout the day on most days. I appreciate the personal attention given to all students and the work-arounds for those of us with chronic injuries. The cancellation policy can be tricky (there is a charge if not cancelled 24 hours ahead of class, even if the class is not full). It can be a problem if you’re required to attend a last minute meeting, or you wake up not feeling well - you may have to make a decision about whether to go to class when you’re not feeling your best. Their app allows you to schedule your classes a few weeks ahead, but if you’re not always able to give a 24 hour cancellation, it may be best to schedule your classes on the day of each class.

My PilatesSTRONG has really been a game changer for me. Everyday I feel myself getting stronger and toning muscles I didn’t even know I had. There are a variety of classes to choose from so regardless if you’re a beginner or advanced, there’s something for everyone. The instructors are all wonderful and really take the time to ensure form is correct so you get the best workout possible. I’m so happy to have joined my PilatesSTRONG and look forward to going to each day. Would highly recommend.

My Pilates Strong is Amazing! The studio is light and relaxing, the machines are beautiful and the Instructors go above and beyond. I'm coming off of 3... yes 3 back surgeries in 2021 and the staff has been incredible to help me regain strength and keep me in proper form to not compromise my spine. It has felt so awesome to get back into a fitness routine and while I had done Pilates years ago, I feel I'm having to retrain myself with my newly fused spine. So thankful its so close, convenient and affordable.
