I agree! For the price you can't beat it! Lately I have been going more and more to the hot pilates room. It's a great and different way to work out. Your experience depends on three things
1. your attitude
2. your instructor
3. what time you go to.
About the smell ... It's not a intolerable smell??? It smells just fine! You don't go to a gym and expect it to smell like flowers. It smells like a little sweat, but you're in a hot room with bodies all around you detoxifying. What do you expect?
Favorite Pilates instructors:
Lisa Virga
Paula Jordan
Jill Dexter
Lack of star is for poor experiences that I've had with other instructors where I feel they're not happy to teach the class/ aren't really supporitive.
e.g. Yes you're pregnant I get it, but the more you say it and shove it into our face wont encourage us to squat lower. Loving words please.
This is for the rainbow location.
Overall great experience really.
