Such a great instructor! She was so encouraging and super sweet. Gave great modifications and pushed you when you needed it!
One of the best studios in LA! The instructors are so motivating and push you to your limits in the best way possible. The themed classes are always fun too. My faves are the pop punk and EDM ones!
The afternoon and evening classes usually aren't too full which is nice. Validated parking, lockers, and earplugs are provided.

Omg this class was AWESOME. It was intense, but there are a lot of modification options, which made my first Pilates reformer class way more doable. Excited for the next one!

Was my first solidcore class and it’s a hard workout. I’ve taken some classes at other studios which weren’t nearly as challenging. So if you wanna get a workout in, this is your place. The instructor was so nice and encouraging and provided hands on modifications if you want them. The front desk staff was super kind and helpful.

Wonderful instructor! Great energy, even at 5am!!!
Love the class! Omg i definitely felt the burn! The girls were extremely welcoming. I love this location! Also not only are the staff sweet but even the girls taking the classes loveeeeee!
Chad was beyond amazing! This was my second time at solid core, and Chad is the reason I will be back! I was discouraged the first time around, too fast paced with not much direction. today I had no choice other than solid core on cp due to schedule to I decided to give it a try again, and so glad I did! Will def be back for chads classes!
This place was awesome! Everyone was welcoming and showed you where everything was. Savannah was a great instructor! Since this was a beginner class, she was very clear with her instructions and demonstrations, which were very helpful, while also motivating us to do the exercises to the fullest we can in the safest way. I would come back :)

Maggie was a wonderful instructor. She was so encouraging, I really feel like I pushed myself harder than usual and left feeling so strong. She taught to levels and never said “harder” or “easier” but “amplified” and “modified” which was a nice reminder that when I can’t do something and take a modification, it’s not “easier” just modified. This was all at 5am too which is extra impressive. Can’t wait to come back next week!!
Challenging class, loved it! It was my first solidcore class and Savannah provided adjustments as needed. It is similar to a lagree class

Solidcore is the best workout!
Loved this class! Was challenging (in a great way) and instructions were easy to follow. Very encouraging instructor, she remembered everybody’s names (which I know can’t be easy, but appreciate the effort to do so). On top of that great song choices (I love a great playlist) 😊👌🏻! Will definitely be taking more of her classes.
Marissa is always super motivating! Good energy for 5/6ams!
Great gentle hands on posture corrections. Class was flowinggg and I was shaking 🤣 1st time with Taylor and totally will come back to try another class with her.
Marissa @ Encino was amazing! I let her know it was my 2nd time and she offered an entire refresher on the spring levels, the different parts of the reformer, the scope of the class, etc. During the lesson, she adjusted my posture/position to ensure full muscle engagement and offered alternative options for beginners. Overall great workout and I feel great!
Challenging and informative starter class to prep you for their standard classes. I appreciated the multiple demos of movements and hands on corrections to ensure my form was correct. Andrea also remembered everyone’s names, which was a really nice, personalized touch! Enthusiastic instructor that I’d definitely take a class with again! Convenient, validated parking in a huge parking garage. Space is in the new West End structure, with a Gelson’s right there to grab a post workout snack or protein shake!
What what a workout. I was sweating after the 1st move. It was tough but doable. Fast paced but with very clear instructions & count downs. Carley was great. She took the time to explain the machine & how class works. She also helped me with alignments throughout class. They have lockers or you can keep your stuff at the machine. It’s located in a large (free) parking lot with other businesses. I did not have a problem getting a spot at 10:40am on a weekday but I would imagine during rush hour it would get busy. Tori checked me in & she super friendly & made me feel welcome & at ease. This was my 1st time here & I loved it so much that I bought a package before I left.
Marissa was awesome! She made us feel comfortable the entire class and never intimidated. She gave clear guidance and offered modifications for beginners, which made the workout approachable and fun.

Best studio - easy plaza parking, coaches are educated, strong, and charismatic.

looove solidcore. best place to work out ever. everyone is nice and professional. coaches Selena, Carley, Chad, and Taylor are my favorite. always wonderful classes. can’t recommend them enough. Selena always has the best playlists, if you love hip-hop, you’ll be obsessed.
I loved how comfortable and approachable the room is . No need to feel self conscious . It's not your typical class. The room is dark, the music is great, and it's fun!
I will continue to go. It's a little overwhelming at first to learn it all , but I've been told you can master it quickly! Looking forward to the challenge! I'm also really sore-which is a good thing!

Jesus Christ, I know why they call it solidcore now. I’ve taken many Lagree classes and I’ve never done this much core in my entire life, lol it was great!!!! Loved the twisted army crawls and how informed Harrison’s was about the body/ muscles being used. Gave lots of option to amplify/ make it easier. Parking was quick and easy
Great workout! The instructors were friendly and motivating. The dark room with blue lighting and energizing music really set the vibe--an awesome atmosphere to push yourself.

So excited about this new pilate place in encino! I have been four times already and really love it! It's always challenging and every instructor is great and motivating. There are 16 reformers. They have super beginner classes where they break down the move in length then more advanced classes. They dim the lights and the place becomes such a vibe. It's in a nice Caruso strip mall with plenty of free parking. The studio manager Taylor is super great with good energy!

I have not taken a Solidcore class before - this was my first time, and to be honest was a bit nervous about it. The class instructor Kayleen had a calm but energetic approach and made the class productive and fun all around. She also did a great job showing how to do the correct techniques. I will be back!
Courtney did an amazing job walking me through the positions and the workouts! Worked areas of my muscles that I haven't accessed before!! Great early morning sweat session! Thank you Courtney for being patient with me and motivating me! Highly recommend!

I was really excited to try this studio, and as soon as it opened, I couldn't wait to join! The instructors bring such amazing energy, and every class is a great challenge. I always feel pushed to do my best, and I love that the instructors provide modifications to either intensify the moves or make them more accessible. It's the perfect balance! Be ready to sweat, have fun, and leave feeling fantastic!
I didn't realize this was a new studio! I had julie as a teacher and she was the perfect combination of motivational and caring! I felt so safe to be in my body and go at my own pace. Honestly it was my favorite Pilates class yet.

Solid core is the best workout ! I took Almost 100 class
I was traveling and took a class here. It's a nice space, much bigger than my home studio in DC but the room was oddly shaped. I ended up with the one machine where the wall is at a slant and there isn't enough space for incline pushups on the grey platform. Other than that, it's a good studio, good coach.
Finally tried Solidcore this year to restart a fitness routine and this studio has been great. I tried a few of the starter classes to learn the equipment and exercises and all of the instructors were encouraging and helpful. Location has street parking (metered during the day) and validated garage parking for 75 minutes. I like that their schedule has late classes and more afternoon options on the weekends. I always feel like I get a good workout and definitely have gotten stronger in just a few months. Highly recommend if you're looking for a strength building workout and like Pilates!

NEVER HAVE I EVER BEEN SO FCKN HUMBLED BY A WORK OUT CLASS
pros:
Validated parking
Parking structure
Great playlist
New reformers
Very supportive and helpful instructors
Cons:
Hard to find as there are no signs on the building
Validation is supposed to be for 75 minutes and I still had to pay even though I was there under 75 minutes so that's more of a parking issue and not a class issue
Not beginner, friendly - this was my first time at solid core but my second overall Pilates class. This is a great workout, but I was fucking dying the entire time lol the last issue I have with this class is the microphone the instructor using sometimes muffled her words which made it hard to understand her direction, but other than that this was a great class, I will be back after I build up my endurance and fitness level. Lol

I've taken a few lagree classes but dang SolidCore kicked my butt and I was sore for days.
I took a class with Sue and she was so nice! Loved her energy and her K-POP playlist was fire!! I'm excited to sign up for more classes

I've gone to the other Solidcore locations in LA and this one is one of my favorites! Kriz was the coach and did a fantastic job pushing me to my limits! I left feeling AMAZING (like a runners high) and will definitely be back. Such good bang for your buck- 50min workout that is equivalent to a 2 hour workout
Nice, clean studio in the new West Edge building. Parking is validated for 75 minutes, which is a perfect amount of time given that classes are 50 minutes long.
Solidcore is the perfect name for this workout! It's a low impact routine that focuses on smaller more concentrated movements that target your core! I've done several of the workouts, some work arms and glutes, others thighs and stomach, all the while getting your whole body engaged. These full body workouts will have you breaking a sweat and feeling energized after the exercise! It's intense!
The instructor, Haley, was awesome! She walked us through the basic movements and helped with our form throughout the workouts. There are a series of movements: some work with cords and straps, some with various weights, while others work maneuvering the sliding carriage.
I like how you are encouraged to take "breathers", grab a sip of water, and "shake it out", so you can go at your own pace. The studio holds about 15 machines so you'll get personal attention as the classes aren't too big. I love the app where I can book the classes on line. I e been to both locations, here in Short Pump and in Libbie Mill. I prefer this one! I also like the dim lighting and the playlists that keep you motivated!
There's an area for your personal belongings and the restrooms are clean. At the end of the class, you are given disinfected wipes to clean the machines! So, you know that the stations are sanitized.
Your muscles will be sore and achy at first, but I've really noticed the more I take Solidcore classes the less I'm sore! My muscles are thanking me! I've seen both men and women here and all ages, and I'm usually the oldest! Lol!! After this class I usually walk for a mile or so to give my body and little cardio, too cool down and stretch out those muscles! These workouts are a challenge and I'm up for it!! Feel the burn!!!

If you are looking for a challenge or perhaps to level- up your strength and ability for your workout routine, this is the place to go! Excellent, professional instruction and attention to detail on movement quality. You'll get your money's worth from these 50 minute classes.
The best workout studio where u can feel your every drop of sweat!The coaches are always welcoming and helping out.All well trained.The studio is super clean.
Killer workout, felt like i was dying most of the time, but I'll be back. My body hurts in places i didn't know existed!
Loving!! my Solid Core classes. The instructors are great, the atmosphere fun...great music, always leave class feeling stronger in my body and pumped up! I love the length of the classes...the 50 minute class is not too long but not too short. Excites to continue on this fitness journey with SOLID CORE RVA!
If you're looking for a full body workout that is fun and challenging then this is the place for you. All of the trainers are very knowledgeable and they are very helpful with every move. It's high paced and really gets the blood flowing. I highly recommend to anyone looking to see a positive change in their body!
[Solidcore] is definitely a five star workout, and this is a five star facility. This workout kicked my butt. The workout was fast paced with upbeat music and a motivating instructor. The facility itself is in a prime location at Greengate and was very clean and welcoming. I personally need to get in better shape myself before I become a regular at solidcore, but that's on me.
I love solid core. Instructors are awesome and great music! Love how my abs hurt so god after class!
Great workout with a killer staff. Have been close to 20 times and each time I'm impressed with the workout, trainers and equipment. When I'm not at cyclebar Greengate sweating you'll find at [solidcore] for sure.
