CORE Pilates and Gyrotonic

I was searching for a way to strenghten my low back after a tennis injury. I've been going to CORE for a year and I have gotten great results. I am stronger than I ever imagined I could be. The staff is very professional and they work with you and your specific needs. It's a great place to get in shape. I love everything about this studio. I am so glad I found CORE!

Pros: Most professional and well trained staff

Cons: none

I began taking pre-natal Pilates at CORE during my pregnancy and plan to continue training there postpartum and beyond. I would highly recommend the studio to anyone interested in Pilates and/or Gyrotonic. The staff is friendly, professional and above all extremely knowledgeable. They seem dedicated to providing top-notch instruction and service. The studio ambience is relaxed yet focused and the equipment is impeccable. The location and parking are also great!

Pros: instructors, parking, scheduling, all around good choice

Cons: none

I started taking PIlates sessions 9 years ago & I have been working out @ CORE for 18 months, usually 3-4 times per week. I can honestly say CORE is incomparable to any other studio out there. The instructors are by far the best in Atlanta. Everyone there brings a unique talent, background & personality that allows you to take advantage of all the best teaching methods out there. Everyone @ the studio is warm, friendly & professional. They take great pride in what they do.

I found the instructors to be very supportive of each other. I like this because if you want to work out w/ a different instructor, try a different class, there is no awkward feeling when you walk in for your appointment, unlike at some other studios, where it was taken as a personal insult, just because my work schedule changed & I needed to come @ a different time. This spirit of teamwork & client service is also very helpful when, for example, your regular instructor is going on vacation. Everyone works w/ each other to find you another instructor to work w/ so you won't be thrown off your workout schedule.

Another great thing, CORE has no membership fee, so they don't charge you just for being their client. If you look around at other studios, it may seem that their per session price might be lower, but by the time you tack on the membership fee, it brings their per session fees equal to or more than that of CORE, & the results & experience are not nearly as good. If price is of a concern, talk to the team. Duets are a great way to bring the cost down. If you don't have a friend that can do a duet with you, the team might know of another client that is interested in doing a duet , but doesn't have a partner & possibly set up a duet for you.They are really committed to providing the best service out there.

I cannot think of a negative thing to say about CORE. Whether you are a new student to Pilates or GYRO?, or have been doing it for a long time, this is the place to be!

I have been working out at Core for 2 years and adore it! What is most important to me is a good workout and people who know real pilates. The studio has the best equipment, is very clean, convenient, and not crowded. The instructors are all very knowledgable and so nice. I highly recommend this place if you ar elooking for pilates/gyro!

Pros: Staff ability, ambience, parking easy, equipment

It's true. Pilates taught and practiced properly can lengthen your limbs, slim your waist, tone your muscles lean and provide an excellent workout for body AND mind which is exactly what it's done for me. I played soccer and swam all the time in high school and still look better today. People really don't think I gave birth to my two small children! It's rewarding to have both strangers and friends say, "What are you doing because whatever it is I want to be doing it, too." The beautiful, calming studio environment is filled with amazing equipment and instructors who live and love the Method. Even though Pilates is fun, it's complicated, involved and potentially harmful if done improperly. Don't try this at home. Change your life. Go to CORE.

Pros: expert instruction, convenient location, serene environment

Cons: you'll want to go all the time but call ahead because stay booked!

I've been working out at CORE since it opened and it's wonderful.
The classes are challenging and they're small so you get individual attention.
All the instructors are nice and friendly and they will always answer any questions you have.
I love working out there and if I'm gone on vacation, I can't wait to get back!!

Pros: the staff, parking, the classes

Cons: can be pricey

When working out on a private or small group level personal attention is what is most important to me. Core ATL is actively involved with each client and takes the time to understand their needs and desires. I never felt like a number or had to show an ID.
The studio is quite, private and not a place for social gathering or hanging out. People come here to workout.

Pros: Service-parking-always what you need is available
