I've only been once so far, but I fully intend to go back to ToddPilates & Barre!
Going to a new studio is always a little scary (you have to find your way around and figure out what equipment you need and where it's kept), but when I got to ToddPilates, I had a mat with my name on it all set up with the necessary equipment for the workout. After the workout, the instructor (Roger) even came to check on me personally to make sure I had an enjoyable workout and didn't strain any muscles. All of these personal touches really made the first-time experience much less daunting.
The class itself (Pilates) was really upbeat and Roger was very encouraging and knowledgeable. He took my mind off the burn by providing fun facts about the songs playing during the reps. This not only worked, but was really interesting!
The workout was the perfect level of difficulty for me and I loved that there were always modifications offered. In the past I've been to exercise classes where the instructor was either too lenient or too drill-sergeant-esque, but Roger offered a perfect happy medium. You were pushed and encouraged, but not to the point of straining yourself in an unhealthy way.
I'm also really impressed by the overall system of the facility. They have a great app, easy-to-use check-in tags, and a rewards system that helps you earn discounts. Everything is really organized and high-tech.
And don't even get me started on the prices... Go to their website-- IMMEDIATELY. Seriously, Todd has the best deals in town! And there are a lot of incentives for first time attendees.
Overall, it was an amazing experience and I will definitely be back once my soreness dies down a little. I'm really looking forward to checking out the barre classes as well! :)
