About

Vida Pilates UC is a Pilates studio in University City. Reviewers describe small classes capped at around 13, an attractive decor and easy parking, and say the instructors and owner make newcomers feel welcome, including one reviewer who calls themselves big and clumsy and says they never felt out of place. Classes are called challenging without feeling like boot camp. Summer Twist is praised again and again for energy and for walking round to check everyone, and Paula Cohen is described as an attentive, knowledgeable teacher who tailors sessions to the individual. Mariana, who teaches Zpilates, and Bia are also mentioned. One reviewer ranks it above Club Pilates; another notes that the reformer is a little outdated.

    Awesome place with exceptional instructors. I'm a big clumsy guy and I never feel out of place or awkward here, and the instructors all make sure to help me out with any modifications or guidance I need. The classes typically max out at around 13 people I think, so you won't get lost in the crowd even in a fully booked class.

    I really love this place - instructor Summer Twist makes you feel welcome and home. She is energetic, walks around to make sure everyone is able to follow and won’t hurt. I’d say it’s way better than club Pilates. The reformer is a little outdated but that doesn’t matter though
