Tried my first (free) class last week and I am impressed by the professionalism and courtesy of the staff. They are very friendly and accommodating. Beautiful studio as well. Did not feel pressured to join, which was a nice plus.

What an excellent studio. I signed up for a trial class and everyone from the front desk to the instructor (Sarah) was delightful and incredible. I was not sure what to expect since this was the first time I tried reformer machines, but the workout was effective and totally helped my lower back pain. I walked out a member. I can’t wait to attend more classes. This is a fantastic studio with fantastic energy.

I’m a big fan of Elev8 and Pilates. The studio and staff are not intimidating, just the opposite! ..kind, friendly, warm and encouraging. My favorite place to move and spend “me time”, and be near others who are keeping their bodies and mind healthy!

Bungee fitness was so fun! It was totally different than any other workout I've ever done. Millie was super friendly, and took time to explain everything while keeping the pace challenging. The location was a little tricky to find but everything else was smooth and the studio is very nice.

Couldn’t recommend this place more! For the first time I found a type of fitness that I love. I’m excited to go each day and my body feels stronger and healthier than ever!! Have never once felt judged or like I didn’t fit a certain mold.

I had such a great time! The mat pilates class was relatively easy to follow for beginners, and while challenging, was not impossible. The instructor was amazing, her vibes were immaculate, and her instructions were clear. 10/10 would recommend.

Love love love! I’ve been practicing mat Pilates for some time but this was my first time on a reformer with an instructor. Heather has a great teaching style and was very kind, you definitely get a great workout in with some Pilates shakes along the way! Their studio space is clean and open. Already looking forward to taking more classes!

I’m seriously obsessed with this studio! Everyone is SO sweet and welcoming you instantly feel comfortable, even if it’s your first time. There’s such a fun mix of classes too, yoga when you need to chill, bungee when you want to feel like you’re flying, and reformer Pilates when you’re ready to feel the burn (in the best way).

The instructors are the kindest people and genuinely make you feel supported and strong. I’ve felt such a difference in my body and mindset since coming here. It’s honestly the highlight of my week every time. If you’re thinking about trying it just do it! You’ll love it here!

I’m new to Pilates but I fell in love! The space is great and in a cool location. The instructors truly care 🥹 They make it fun but they’ll challenge you when you’re ready. They also have a variety of classes to choose from like Reformer Pilates, Mat Pilates, Bungee, Etc Definitely try them out! If you want a fun, clean, and supportive place to get your fitness on, try them out!

My new year’s resolution was to work on my flexibility so I signed up for Pilates at Elev8 Fitness. I have thoroughly enjoyed each class I have taken so far. The instructors are accommodating and want to see me meet my goals. The studio is very clean, in a great location, and has an awesome vibe.

Im really enjoying this studio. The teachers, atmosphere, and the schedule is perfect for what i need to build muscle and get back into shape. I homeschool and work full time so it's a nice environment to get away in the morning while working on bettering myself.

I really enjoyed it. I have never been to a yoga class before and this was a great way to experience one. Very welcoming, all types of bodies so no need to be bashful, they have mats and blocks to use, and a great environment. Thank you very much for putting on these classes

This is the most amazing place! I'm not in great shape. Or even good shape. But I want to be healthy. From the first class (reformer pilates), I've been excited to exercise. I've done several classes and loved them all. But. Then I tried the bungee class. Oh my stars, this is the best. Full on cardio but you get to jump around like you're a kid again!

The staff are incredible. From the front desk to the instructors, caring, knowledgeable, encouraging, inclusive. I've never stuck with an exercise program before this place. I didn't feel that I belonged. But here they want everyone. No matter your size or your natural ability or where you are on your fitness journey, they want you there.

Every beginner class is designed for you to go at your own pace. No judgement, no feeling less than. Just a fun, safe space no matter where you are fitness-wise! Y'all, I've seen so much progress in myself in the few weeks that I've been taking these classes. Maybe no one else could tell, but I can! My endurance and flexibility are better. Again, maybe not obvious to others but I know! It's exhilarating!

Come take a class. You'll see. It just takes one to be hooked!

Love, love, love!! It's always been so hard for me to stay motivated in this type of environment or feel comfortable for that matter.. but here at Elev8 fitness that's not the case. I don't feel uncomfortable or embarrassed at all. It's so easy to be myself and go at my own pace without feeling like anyone is judging me. It's very uplifting and positive. All the vibes are perfect. The instructors, well entire staff, are the best! So down to earth, welcoming, empowering, and so fun! They really want to see you strive to be the very best happiest version of you. And the amount of classes they have to offer is just ✨chef's kiss✨🤌🏻 So far I have taken reformer for beginners, bungee, body balance, and Barre. Love them all! And I still have other classes to explore!! Don't be scared to try any of them! I'm not great yet at any of these classes, but I'm already seeing improvements in myself. The classes I've attended are always full of fun people. We share laughter as we all push through together. NO ONE is judging you! It's very wholesome. For the first time ever I'm excited to work out. I'm continuously excited for my next class! Don't walk, RUN to Elev8 fitness! I hope to see you there! It's such a good time!

I was so excited to try this bungee class—I’d been looking forward to it the minute I saw it was offered in Cleveland. Unfortunately, it ended up being a massive disappointment.

First, the experience started off on the wrong foot. The receptionist was extremely rude when we arrived. She asked for our names and started to get our equipment, but then two other women walked in behind us, and she rudely stopped assisting us to help them instead. It was uncomfortable and made us feel like we didn’t matter.

Next, the class itself was completely disorganized. My cousin had issues with her harness, and the instructor, Hannah, offered an unacceptable solution: she could either use just the belly harness—which would put all the bungee pressure on her stomach—or sit out the class entirely. Hannah initially said she would get the class started and come back to help, but she never returned. It was only when the instructor’s husband stepped in that they found a harness that worked.

When my cousin finally rejoined the class, the bungee was not weighted correctly, and she ended up falling on her knee. While she was laughing and trying to shake it off, she did mention afterward that she had actually hurt herself. The husband later admitted that the bungee had been weighted for someone over 300 pounds, while my cousin weighs under 250. This lack of attention to detail and safety is completely unacceptable.

Another major issue was how unwelcoming this studio felt for people who aren’t skinny. This type of workout was originally designed to accommodate larger individuals, people with injuries, or those with joint pain to help alleviate joint pressure and minimize impact, yet the studio and staff seemed ill-equipped and uninterested in ensuring the experience was inclusive or comfortable for people of all sizes. On top of that, Hannah was asking people’s weights out loud in front of everyone, which was incredibly uncomfortable and inappropriate. This behavior made the class feel even less inclusive and welcoming.

Additionally, the class was supposed to last 50 minutes, but it started late and ended early. We were completely finished and out of our harnesses by 6:18. Class was supposed to start at 5:30.

On top of that, the music was a letdown—it was too quiet and not at all upbeat or energetic, which made it even harder to enjoy the session.

To their credit, they did offer my cousin a free class to make up for the experience. However, the only way we’d consider attending again is with a different instructor who prioritizes safety, organization, inclusivity, and professionalism. Which I’m sure after our first visit they would be happy not to include us in a workout class. We didn’t fit their brand.

What made the experience even worse was that at the end of the class, the instructor, Hannah, asked if we had a good time but didn’t even offer an apology for all the issues we encountered. Her husband was more apologetic than her and apparently she’s a partial owner. This lack of acknowledgment was the final disappointment in an already frustrating experience.

I wanted to love this, but I left feeling frustrated and disappointed. If you’re looking for a fun, well-organized class with instructors who care and a welcoming environment for all, I’d suggest exploring other options.

I started taking classes here recently. So far I have taken the mat pilates and bungee. I am very happy with the quality of the services provided here. The instructors are knowledgeable and friendly and I always leave knowing I got a good workout in. They offer some other classes which I hope to explore soon as well. I have been doing combat sports for 7 years now but decided this year I needed to add in other ways of conditioning my body. I really have never had experience with this type of work out but the instructors are wonderful at ensuring I get the most of my classes.
