I am writing to respectfully inform you of my recent experience attempting to establish contact with your organization. Over the past two weeks, I have made multiple efforts to reach your business. Regrettably, I have not received a response to my inquiries during this period.

The absence of any communication has been a source of considerable disappointment, as I was initially very interested in utilizing your services.

Given the pressing nature of my needs and the necessity to advance my plans, I have decided to proceed with an alternative service provider.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

I've been going to People's Pilates (both locations but hilltop is my home base) for about a year and a half. I've been intimidated by group classes and had negative experiences at traditional gyms in the past but decided to be brave and try something new after a major health diagnosis, and it's become a practice that I look forward to and rely on weekly for my mental and physical health! I've shopped around with different class types and instructors and my favorites by far are the Mobility reformer class with Sorya and Spring Wall with Tyler. I've never felt judged, only supported, and the right instructors will offer modifications and feedback without making you feel singled out. I really appreciate their attention to language around bodies and movement. If I could go every day I would 🫶

A place that makes you feel like family the moment you walk in. The staff is trained well, and I would consider a number of them friends after just a few months. The facility is well maintained and classes are affordable and approachable. I couldn’t recommend People’s more.

I’ve been going to People’s Pilates for a couple months now and it has honestly been life changing. I never expected myself to like Pilates as much as I do, but they’ve got me hooked!! I’ve brought multiple people to classes too, and they all end up booking more classes. If you’re thinking about trying Pilates, or you’re just looking for a new place, book a class at People’s!!!

Pro tip: they have a first timers drop in “discount” — buy the first timers drop in credit to use when you book your first class, you get $5 off! 🤸🏼‍♀️

My partner and I drove 35 min to take a class here and it was well worth the drive! As first timers to reformer pilates, the instructions were clear and she gave a lot of helpful cues. I would highly recommend this studio for those new to pilates or working out in general. The studio is really cute, clean, and parking was easy to find at the Hilltop location. They have bathrooms, a water bottle filling station, and lockers.

I’ve been to many studios but there is no other that will make you feel so welcome, empowered, and comfortable during a Pilates sesh like they do at PP! Doesn’t matter what level (intro to advanced) they have classes for everyone. Both locations are amazing! The ONLY thing is I wish classes didn’t fill so fast, but that’s just a testament to how good People’s Pilates really is!

Cannot say enough greats things about People's! The instructors are all fantastic, always ready to challenge you while also being supportive and encouraging, and you can really tell that this studio was made out of a passion for building a community where positivity can thrive. I have also had to reach out a few times for help with my membership and the email contact is always met with a swift and helpful response and the solutions to any problem is always easily handled. If you're looking for a studio in Tacoma, both locations are beautiful, clean, and welcoming, and you will not regret becoming part of the People's community!

I had such a great time at this Pilates! The studio was spotless and had such a welcoming vibe. Kelsey was an amazing instructor super engaging, encouraging, and made the workout both fun and effective. It was my husband’s 2nd time trying Pilates, and she made him feel so comfortable and included. We both left feeling refreshed & energized!! Highly recommend!!

I don't often review places on Google but I felt like this studio is the exception. I've been attending classes at People's Pilates for over a year and can say that this studio is the best one I've ever been to. I'm a big fan of exercise studios and have been doing yoga and spin classes for years. I decided to check out this studio since I live nearby and I feel so lucky to have a space like this so close to my home! All of the instructors are amazing and personable and I love the variety of classes they offer - even if you take the same type of class the instructors do a really good job of switching the routines and every class is challenging in the best way possible. Thank you People's Pilates for providing such a beautiful, welcoming space for me and the community, I've never felt stronger!

I have been doing pilates at home since 2020 and decided I wanted to try out a studio and take it to the reformer. People's was recommended a bunch and I am honestly obsessed since my first class. Every instructor I've had has been amazing. I look forward to each class and leave feeling so strong and confident with myself. I can actually feel changes in my core strength and posture after 6 classes! I will be sticking with People's from now on!

I’ve tried other Pilates studios and none compare to People’s. All of the instructors are not only amazing at what they do, but also incredibly kind and supportive of every single person that walks through the door. The range of classes is amazing and the outdoor community classes are a huge bonus! Nothing beats a studio that also gives back to the community it’s a part of.

Look no further - People’s Pilates is it. I have never felt more comfortable and physically challenged in a group class before coming to this studio. The instructors are knowledgeable, yet approachable. The Pilates community PP has created is a diverse, safe place for everyone.

No lie, People’s Pilates has changed my relationship to my body and movement. I truly enjoy every class, even when I’m sweating and struggling. The space is always welcoming, calming, joyful. Kayla has a special place in my heart for being such a helpful and caring instructor. I’m now 8 months pregnant and I’ve taken her classes through every stage; she’s always so thoughtful and encouraging. Classes with Tyler (and his playlists) are also some of the most fun I’ve ever had working out. I also love that I can mix things up with a variety of yoga classes.

And even after saying all this, PP keep adding classes and events that I can’t wait to try out! Outdoor Pilates, silent book club… they’re really just such a gift in the community. Go, go, go! <3

Love, love, love this studio! I got to see the progress on this space, it was an obvious labor of love for the owners. Excited to see how this space benefits Hilltop. I took a class with Tyler and Kayla and loved it, great vibe and music. A clean, safe space for all bodies— beginners and experienced folks!

People’s Pilates is pure magic 💫 The space, the culture, the instructors, the community, the options (read: big fan of the heated room and look forward to practicing in the backyard) - everything that has been intentionally cultivated here has been exactly what I’ve been hoping to find. Like others have mentioned in previous reviews, I had also felt intimidated to start Pilates, but can genuinely say that feeling evaporated the moment I walked in. The thing I am most grateful for: I feel stronger, more confident + more capable in my own body after every class. Thank you for sharing the gift of movement, for challenging us to be the best versions of ourselves and empowering all of us to grow both mentally and physically.

One of my fav places! I’ve been going here since they opened and love the atmosphere, the owners, team, and the variety in classes. Compared to other studios i’ve been, the pricing is very reasonable. I also love that they educate their customers on the levels of classes - it’s literally for EVERY body! I can go on and on about how much I love and look forward to classes every week. :)

If you’re looking for a studio - I’d definitely give this one a try!

Had my first class after wanting to try this studio for a long time, and it was so lovely! Tyler’s class was fun, welcoming, and offered options depending on the degree of effort you wanted. The other students were welcome and warm as well, can’t wait to go back!

This place is amazing! Having never tried it, I always thought pilates to be intimidating. I started out with a few of their yoga classes (shout out to their incredibly affordable community yoga-in-the-yard) but after taking the Intro to Pilates class, I'm absolutely hooked. I've never done any form of exercise as fun and engaging as pilates – the classes fly by so fast and I feel SO GOOD when I'm done.

Thank you Tyler, Alex, & the PP team for creating such a wonderful, supportive space – y'all are such a gift to the Tacoma community ❤️🍑

I have been taking classes from Trista for years. I was so happy to get to be in a class with her again when I was in Tacoma this week! People’s Pilates is such a lovely space. I really enjoyed the Pilates yoga combo in a hot room. Great work out filled with really nice people!! Their outside space looks awesome for summer time too! Whenever I am in town I will be back.

Peoples Pilates is the most fun I’ve had at any exercise class! The staff are welcoming and instructive and help you push yourself while offering modifications to keep you safe. If you are a plus size person curious about Pilates, definitely try it out- a great workout without any of the exclusivity I’ve felt at other studios.

I can’t even begin to explain how this place has changed my life. The acceptance, comfortability and encouragement that the instructors bring to every class shines bright on each person who walks out of here. I have never looked forward to working out or felt this good about myself until I came here. Finger snaps to Tyler, Alex and Kayla for creating and maintaining this space!

Amazing place. All of the intructors are knowledgeable, passionate and helpful. Tyler is great for beginners. His calm voice puts you at ease and ready to learn. Kayla is great for experience people. Her quick paced classes and advanced moves make for an awesome workout. Kelsey’s Power Pilates classes make for a great, fast paced workout. Tani is just phenomenal. Her yoga classes are out of this world. I always leave this place feeling refreshed and stronger than before. 10/10 recommend.

I cannot recommend People’s Pilates enough! The classes are accessible yet challenging for someone that is new to Pilates like I was going in. The instructors are so patient and knowledgeable and the entire vibe of the studio is so welcoming. It truly is such a privilege to have the studio in our community!

I have been a member at many gyms in Tacoma over the years (CrossFit, Hot Yoga, All women’s gym). None of them compare to People’s Pilates. At People’s you will find comfort and care, along with Instructors who have the ability to motivate you to do HARD things. I have been ultra running for years and trying to return post baby. I have been struggling with hip/ligament mobility issues, this has been a GAME changer for me. From Reformer to Mat, this is a total body work out, which has the ability to target isolated muscle groups. If I haven’t won you over yet, at least come for the cold Eucalyptus towel at the end. 🤤😻 I love PEOPLES Pilates!!!!

From reading the reviews to showing up for my first class and even still after two intro classes, I knew I'd feel welcomed at this studio. As a plus size person it can be nerve racking to start a new workout routine but Pilates has been piquing my interest for a little while now and I'm so thankful to have found People's Pilates to try it out for the first time! Tyler is amazing at what he does (and plays the best music) and the classes have been just enough of a challenge so far. I've been recommending People's Pilates to all of my friends, I'm so happy to have this place so close to home!

I am writing this on a Pilates high. I am so happy I found People’s Pilates. The atmosphere and instructors are warm and friendly. Most importantly, they’re patient and understanding as you learn and transition to different positions. I appreciate the variety and intimacy of the smaller classes. I love the community they’re building too. I don’t feel out of place when I come alone or if I’m underdressed. I'm excited about the upcoming hot pilates classes. And to see what they do with the outdoor space.

The location, parking, and bathrooms are convenient and easily accessible. I like that they have lockers too. The studio itself is clean and vibrant. In summary, I highly recommend People’s Pilates!

This is such a great addition to Tacoma! A beautiful, clean, and welcoming facility - the passion and investment the owners have put in are deeply felt.

This was my first time doing reformer pilates and the class is presented in such a way that I felt comfortable and encouraged to try something new. It’s a great work out that also gives you a nice deep stretch.

I’ll definitely be back and plan to bring friends with me!

This place is clean, the staff are friendly and informative, and they give you a cooled eucalyptus towel after making you sweat! I took my first class three days ago and still feel the burn. Tyler was my instructor. He was helpful and guided the class of newbies and tenured pilates folks through proper form and movement. This studio is different; it feels very inclusive and focused on community.

I am so happy to have found People's Pilates in Tacoma. The studio is absolutely beautiful. I always feel welcome when I walk in for my workout. I am taking private lessons with Tyler. Tyler clearly puts a lot of time into designing the lessons which are full of variety and a lot of fun. I am new to Pilates and taking private lessons with Tyler is exactly what I need. It allows me to learn proper techniques and provides me with challenging workouts. Tyler’s professionalism and passion for what he does is second to none. After my workouts, I always feel great and have lots of energy for the day. Thank you Tyler, Alex and Kayla.

Fantastic folks in a great studio with a good flowing class. As someone who's gotten very comfortable using a Peloton at home, I'm honestly surprised how much I enjoyed pilates here! Ty and Kayla provide great instruction with options to bump it up a notch if you want to really feel the stretch. I can't wait to see future offerings!

This was my first time ever doing Pilates, and it was a great experience! The instructors walked us through the process, and made the class feel fun and welcoming. As a long time athlete and runner, I particularly appreciated how low-impact this workout was, and how you could modify the work out to fit your body’s individual needs. I also loved how my body felt afterwards - just the right level of soreness. People’s Pilates is such a warm and inviting place, and I will 100% be telling my friends about it and coming back for a future class. Thank you for such a positive first-time experience!
