AVENIR-LA

My sister recommended this place to me. If she did not, I would've never known Avenir. By the way, I was not a pilates or yoga type of person, actually. So, I just wanted to give it a try and see how it goes. And now I feel so grateful that I tried this place out. I have been taking pilates classes here almost everyday for a few months and I feel the difference. I feel lighter and healthier as taking more classes. Now I recommend this place to people around me. The instructors here are awesome. They really do care about your body and try their best to help you out!!!*****TIPS******You can try them out for free before signing up classes.*They have their own app so it is easy to book a class or cancel.*Find a parking space on street is not hard.

I have been going to Avenir regularly since they opened and it has become my home away from home! All the instructors and owner are extremely welcoming and make Pilates something I look forward to daily. Great workout every time! Location is a huge plus and I am walking distance! Couldn't be happier that Avenir has made its mark on the east side. More...

Avenir is by far the best Pilates studio on the east side.  All of the instructors are so knowledgeable about movement and anatomy.  It isn't your standard class where the instructors just yell out the movements and count out loud.  They actually tell you where the work is coming from on the body, how to breathe, how to visualize the movements, and which muscles to engage.  There is zero judgement and students are encouraged to work at the level their body can handle during any given class.  No two classes are ever the same and the flow of the class is always so intentional.  The studio itself is clean and beautiful and there is always parking in the neighborhood.  (And there are always cute dogs in the reception area...)

Some of the less than 4-5 star reviews for this studio totally boggle my mind! -Parking: it is street parking, but I've never had an issue finding a spot (have gone to weekday and weekend classes). I've never even had to pay for a meter here, although that is an option.-Location: For those saying it's not in Silver Lake.. while technically right, it's such a weird thing to complain about. It's literally 1 block outside of the Silver Lake boundary, and less than 1 block outside of the Los Feliz boundary. This just means it's great for people coming for multiple neighborhoods!-Trainers: I've only gone to 2 trainers. Both were very knowledgeable and friendly! They offer up a variety of moves that keeps the classes flowing and challenging.-Design: I love the colorful lights and their logo on the wall. It gives you something to look at while you're struggling through moves. I personally love to workout at pretty studios - it makes me feel like I'm getting more for my dollar. -Machines: They're all like new! They're not the same type of machine you see at Pilates Plus, but I've used these types of machines at many reputable studios in LA.. they still have jump board options and allow you to do all of the same moves. Comparing the machines to Wundabar is like comparing apples to oranges.. Wundabar patented their own "WundaFormer" and it's not the same as standard Pilates.To each their own, but I love Avenir.

I've been taking classes at least twice a week for five months now. I had been looking for a Pilates studio closer to my home around the time Avenir-LA opened and gave them a try. I haven't looked back. Kate, Allie and Alisha are all great instructors who's classes continually challenge me. They regularly change up routines and add new props. I feel myself getting stronger every week and seeing great results. I am definitely addicted to working out here! More...

Awesome class with Alisha! She was really encouraging throughout the class and frequently adjusted my form so I got the most out of each exercise. It was my first Pilates class, but she made it a very comfortable and appropriately challenging experience! Bonus: they was really accommodating when I signed up for the class late and allowed me to attend the time I wanted. More...

I recently visited LA and I friend of mine took me to the new studio she has been taking at. We went to the 10:30 power and flow class taught by Alisha, who has an energetic and encouraging way of teaching. The class was challenging with a thought out progression. It took me a little farther then I was ready for but the next day I woke up with a good sore especially in my gluts and adductors. There was a good amount of stretching so I left the class feeling warm and long unlike most Pilates classes that leave me feeling short and tight. The studio itself is very open and spacious. There is a good flow and energy throughout the space. It still is new and some of the details will get polished out I'm sure as it expands. Definitely will check it out next time I'm in LA and looking forward to see the growth of this new space. It's a good addition to the neighborhood. More...

This is the best part of my day! My friend has been bugging me to go so I figured I'd give it a try. I've never tried Pilates before, but I'm getting married in the new year and needed a way to decompress after work and from wedding planning! Best decision I've made! I was really comfortable learning and now I can't get enough! I've taken a couple classes so far and Kate is probably my favorite instructor! She has so much energy - totally motivates me after being stuck in a cubicle all day staring at a computer. Now I've convinced my fiancé to join me, and once he heard there was kombucha he was even more excited! It's the best way to get healthy together in a nice atmosphere! Plus this spot is conveniently located and super easy to find parking. The room is large and no matter how full the class gets, there's still plenty of room! More...

This is one of the best studios I have ever been to.  I love the instructors and each one has different specialties that work my whole body where I get that "good muscle fatigue" after each class.  The instructors are knowledgeable and kind.  I love that the facility is always clean, neat, and a great positive environment to be in.  Nick and Kate are always super friendly when we arrive.  I am in the healthcare profession and I really work well with instructors that are knowledgeable about the human body and I was lucky to have found that at Avenir-LA.  I personally would recommend this class to anyone, whether you are a beginner or more experienced.  We try to go at least once a week  I hope this review helps those in need of a new studio/home!

I am OBSESSED with this place!!!! It has literally been my safe haven. Every single instructor has blown me away by their knowledge, energy and desire to truly connect and serve their clients. I am a former NBA, NFL and MLS soccer professional dancer and have been to MANY Hollywood/Valley/Beverly Hills workout studios of all variations. I am certified as CrossFit, Zumba, Aerobics and a Personal Trainer. This workout here is SO much mor then Pilates. It's mind and body experience in an open, calm and empowering atmosphere. Oh and their music is ALWAYS on point! I used to think I had to sweat like a pig and lift heavy weights or run at crazy intervals to feel and see improvements in my body and this place changed the game for me. I used to do Barry's, Orange Theory, and CrossFit for years, but I honestly am seeing the same exact transformation WHILE enjoying the workout calmly and focusing on my breathing (which is incredibly beneficial for you). All the other places felt really dirty to with the amount of sweat etc. Parking had never really been a problem for me, you just got to leave yourself time for parking which is typical for most boutique places in any city. As you can see, I'm head over heels for this new innovative positive empowerment hub! Everyone is kind and chill, nothing but good vibes. SO grateful this magical transformative studio is close to me! :) More...

I've been a Silver Lake resident for over 12 years now and I am SO HAPPY this place has opened. It is brand spankin' new; a gorgeous high-ceilinged space, thoughtfully laid out and lovingly designed, complete with Phillips Hue lights and a black unicorn mural outside (I mean, it IS Silverlake:) . But most importantly, this place has wonderful pilates with experienced instructors! I've taken classes with the woman (Kate) who opened the studio over the years at different locations and it is so exciting to see her take the fearless leap into studio ownership! Not for the faint of heart! She knows what makes a studio welcoming, appealing, and delightful. The class schedule is excellent- from early morning, to midday to evening options, and there aren't too many reformers in the room- tons of space to stretch out! There is also a variety of class types without it being overwhelming. The equipment is top of the line, and SUPER nice (Balanced Body). The vibe is friendly and chill. They are currently offering single classes, packages, and best yet- monthly memberships. I just signed up for the 8 times a month membership- perfect for my needs! Last note- parking is easy, street and meter. Highly recommend! Enjoy! More...

OMG, love this place! Dropped by for their opening and took a free class. Definitely will be back. Kate is the best Pilates instructor in LA. Will get a classpass for sure. Just can't understand how anyone would go to Club Pilates or other Pilates places that are so cramped and with outdated equipment. Avenir is just better, has the best machines, lighting, and is so much more open of a space. Props to whoever designed that space. More...
