Well, might be good? I’m visiting from out of town and tried to drop in. I was asked to wait outside. There was no way to take payment, and since I didn’t have a way to sign up with me I asked them to sign me up or to use their computer - nope. The whole experience was kind of weird. The reformers looked nice but no towers. Given that there are so many Pilates studios around, if you’re local I’d suggest trying several others.

I have wanted to take Pilates classes for a long time. The hardest part is getting started though, right? I finally did and am excited to say I have now gone 5 times and am loving it! They have great intro offers for new clients and several locations, for your convenience. The instructors are very personable and supportive. They suggested modifications for me as I learn and make sure I feel comfortable. Don't put off joining any longer! I highly recommend Citizens Pilates.

I've been wanting to try Pilates for a very long time and finally my chiropractor told me it needs to happen. I was so excited to find Citizen right in my neighborhood and after giving it a try, I was hooked. I'm a month in and every instructor has been fantastic and I can't wait to see the positive change in my body from it. I've also tried all locations, and they are all just as great as the next!

I absolutely love taking classes at Citizen Pilates! I’ve had Chelsea and Shivani as instructors, and they’re both incredible. They bring so much positive energy and make every class feel motivating and fun. What really stands out is how much attention they give to each person. They always take the time to make sure everyone’s form is right and that you’re getting the most out of your workout. Every class feels personalized and supportive. Highly recommend!

New to Citizens Pilates, and cant fault a thing! I am always greeted with a warm and welcoming instructor, who unlike other clubs I have experienced, are keen to coach, help and guide at all times. Facilities are super clean and well maintained, and the service away from the club is also really good - any questions I have had via email/ phone/ app, are answered promptly and professionally! A very happy client, and now a regular! Thank you to the team, for all you do!

can't recommend Citizen Pilates enough! From the moment you walk in, you're welcomed by a clean, modern studio and a team of friendly, knowledgeable instructors who genuinely care about your progress. Each class is thoughtfully designed to challenge your body while remaining accessible for all fitness levels.
The instructors are top-notch—motivating without being intimidating—and they take the time to ensure you're using proper form. The workouts are dynamic and never boring, which keeps me coming back.
Another big plus: class sizes are small enough that you get personal attention.
Citizen Pilates isn’t just a workout, it’s a community. This place is a gem.

I just completed my 10th class at Citizen Pilates and I’m really enjoying it so far! I’ve been dealing with chronic pain for years and it’s been difficult to find a robust workout that doesn’t cause more pain… but I finally found it!

My physical therapist suggested Pilates in general, and Citizen Pilates specifically. The workouts are challenging, but because the pace is slow and controlled, my body doesn’t feel totally wrecked and depleted afterwards like I’ve found with other workout methods.

The instructors are all great, and I find the verbal cues to be very helpful. I leave these classes feeling strong and empowered. So grateful I found Citizen Pilates, for real!!

I started Citizen Pilates the first week of July 2024 and I have to say that I have absolutely fallen in love with this studio and its teachers. I have taken classes at both the Garden Oaks and Heights location and I absolutely love them both. Citizen has classes throughout the day at either locations and the instructors are amazing. I was a bit intimidated the first couple of times as Pilates is made to look so intimidating online/social media, however, all instructors have informed I am a Pilates newbie have immediately put me at ease and taken the time to assure me that modifications are always OK. At Citizen I have not felt that I need to be a "Pilates pro" to be able to do it. I definitely plan to extend my membership past the initial 3 month contract I have started with. My weekly classes have become something I truly look forward to no matter how tired I am from work at the end of the day!

This is such a welcoming studio. The classes work for all shapes and sizes and ages and fitness levels. I’ve been in a few gyms were the weight equipment especially didn’t really fit me (I’m short), so working out was uncomfortable at best. I’ve also done different 45-90 minute classes that were so boring that they felt like 90-200 minutes. Citizen Pilates classes are well paced so you don’t feel like you are doing the same thing over and over.

Update one year later: I’ve been going consistently for nearly 4 years now, and I am about to take my 700th class. This is the first gym/fitness routine that I have stuck with and really enjoyed. Plus I’m stronger and my core and back are so much more stable now.

In addition to the reformer classes, Citizen offers Pilates S T R E T C H. These sessions help you increase your flexibility, focus on your breath and most importantly, give you permission to slow down in this fast-paced world.

Update 2: (for promotion) Still going strong in 2023. I have been taking Laura and Lauren K's classes. I am unable to do straight arm planks due to a wrist issue, and both have been incredibly accommodating with adjustments to keep me in class! They are always challenging classes, but always have ways to step up or down the intensity based on fitness level.

Update: (for promotion) I've been taking classes for a few years now, and have not found a place in the area that matches the experience at Citizen! Through injuries/recoveries the instructors have been kind in identifying modifications and making adjustments. Nicole's classes lately have been challenging and super rewarding!

I have been going to Citizen Pilates for about a year now and I absolutely love it! The classes are small. instructors are knowledgeable. The exercises in class are challenging yet manageable I've enjoyed my time and the team makes you feel valued as a customer.

As a Citizen member for over a year I cannot express how thankful I am for finding this studio. With zero Pilates experience, I began my journey at Citizen and am so happy with the progress and results I’ve seen as a result of my time spent in the classes at their studios. They genuinely make it easy to want to be there. No matter the instructor, class type, etc. each class is worth the experience and always leaves me feeling better than when I walked in.

I’ve taken 50 classes at Citizen Heights. I love every class I’ve taken. Morning classes with Rebecca and Jami are the only things that make me jump out of bed for an early workout.

I've taken 5 classes at Citizen so far and absolutely love it! I've only taken classes with Laura and Lauren at The Heights location, but I don't doubt all the instructors are equally fantastic! I have a few chronic pain issues and have been looking for a low-impact exercise class that still makes me sore the next day. This is IT! I'd never done a reformer class before... you'll work muscles you didn't even know you had! The workout is great, the instructors are friendly and knowledgable, and the studio is bright and clean. If you're considering giving it a try, I highly recommend it!

I have been a proud member of the Citizen Pilates family since 2016. I'd never found a workout that I was genuinely excited for and that I was able to stick with for longer than a few months until I came to Citizen. I typically attend a LOT of classes (usually 4-5 per week) and really credit the inclusive environment, the inventive, knowledgeable, and caring instructors, and the clean, minimalist studios for keeping my attention. My personal favorites are Nicole, Joey, Jodie, and Rebecca, but every instructor is different, so you're sure to find someone that helps you achieve your personal fitness goals. Also, I would HIGHLY encourage a 101 class with Amy if you've never done pilates and ESPECIALLY if you've never used a reformer. Otherwise, beginners are always super welcome!! I love love LOVE this place, and genuinely hope you give it a try and fall in love like I did. If you need pointers, I'm the one with the cat tattoo ;)

I have been going to Pilates for 5 years now and have tried many of the studios in Houston. Citizen is by far my favorite! Being in the Heights, the location is great and close to my house. I love the environment, the culture, and the routines that this studio and its instructors provide. I’ve also felt encouraged and supported by each instructor. I love how at this studio the stretches are incorporated during the work out as opposed to at the very end. I also like that this studio provides a few different levels for beginners, intermediate, and advanced. If you want to tone up, strengthen your core, lose inches, and be part of a studio that truly values each client, than this studio is for you. I’ve been coming to Citizen for the past year (and pre-pandemic I had come for about 6 months. I love citizen and don’t anticipate I’ll be needing any other studio again!

I have been looking for a low-impact workout that would not put so much stress on my body, but would also help me become a healthier me. After trying a Reformer Fitness session with Citizen Pilates, I knew this was IT!

I love that you get to tone your body with slow controlled movements: it's about balance, strength, and flexibility -- but don't worry if you are not! I am still working on that.

Everyone at CP is friendly, encouraging, and they truly put the effort so that you enjoy your workout session! I love the community I found and look forward to every class. If you're looking for a switch in your workout routine, choose Citizen Pilates - they are amazing!

I am new to pilates and decided to try Citizen on a whim about 2 weeks ago. So far it has been a great experience! I love the fall challenge that they are doing right now, as it is a great way to stay motivated and try a variety of classes. All the instructors I've had have been very friendly and helpful, and I really enjoy the small class sizes and positive environment. Strength and flexibility are things that I have always struggled with, and I feel that the classes at Citizen are really helping in these areas.

I love Citizen Pilates! This is such a great, intimate studio to take a Pilates class at on the reformer machine. The instructors are all different with their style of teaching, personality, class structure, so it's really nice to find your groove in an instructor and not feel like there is only one way to teach and workout there. I thoroughly enjoy not feeling intimated or like "I don't fit in" at the studio. The classes are structured to be a challenge and workout, but they aren't meant to fatigue your entire body. Everyone is so friendly and accommodating, too.
