Erin’s energy was amazing!! Thank you so much for fixing my form. The workout itself did not let my muscles rest, and I’ve been so sore since. One of the best Pilates classes I’ve attended!!

April was super helpful as it was my first class! 8 hadn’t done the Starter50 or Foundation50, but I was able to follow along and she provided lots of support
After many Solidcore classes all over the state, she’s the one of my absolute favorites. Her instructions are super clear, her hands-on cues are really helpful, and she genuinely cares about everyone in the room. Will def take her class again. Thank you!

Me gustó mucho la clase, pero el volumen de la música y del audio (instrucciones) era demasiado alto

Amina was great! Super motivating
I loved matt as an instructor. I’m new to Pilates and he was so attentive during the entire class with adjusting my reformer and making sure I was on track. After class he even had a small convo with me about how class went and what to expect as I continue my Pilates journey. I really liked him!
This was my first time doing reformer Pilates, and it was SO GOOD. I feel like I got hit by a bus just 36 hours later, but that is what I crave. I took an 11am class and that night at 1am I was telling my friends “uh oh my abs already hurt I think I’m in danger” 😂 The class was hard but I will 1000% be back.

Great class as always. Solidcore always delivers a great workout class. Felt challenged and stronger. The instructor was kind and helped with form. I enjoyed the class and was worth it.

I liked this class! As a beginner this was great as it wasn’t too challenging. Would have liked more form correction though. Aside from that, instructions were clear n great energy!

Amazing instructions and she was energetic motivating and helped me with my posture throughout. Super attentive. I will be back to her class again for sure
Sydney was such an amazing instructor!! I really enjoyed her enthusiasm throughout the class, her shoutouts were super motivating. She gave clear directions and provided moderations especially if the move was super straining on the muscles. Such a great class!

Fun tough class, definitely made me sweat! It was hard to hear instructions though. She demoed everything in before we jumped into it but it would’ve been nice to have a reference point during the exercise especially for a beginners class

Great music choice
Sarah was great!
Conor’s class is HARD in the best way. I would not recommend for beginners but he still does an amazing job of helping you if you need it. His instructions are clear and he brings a good energy that makes the class fun even as I’m crying through the pain
Amazing first experience here! Payton was so engaging and supportive. Strong workout. I’ll definitely be back!!
My first time at a Solidcore class! Would highly recommend doing the introduction session. As someone who regularly does reformer, the machine here still threw me off. Great instructor - wish there was a warm up and cool down and stretching in the routine. Found it odd that there wasn’t any stretching.
It was my first class and Beck was so kind and helpful - class is humbling but I’m now hooked! Will be back thanks for a great first class! Ps music was fire
Truly a great workout for your core. I understand some of the negative reviews as the classes are fast paced and take place in a darkroom. I would recommend beginners to take multiple intro classes as instructors are much more hands on and lead classes at a slower pace. Taking a regular class with zero reformer experience is not recommended.
It’s my second time attending Evan’s class today. I liked his delivery of the class, the instructions and cues were clear and easy to follow. I particularly love his kind vibe and how he would respectfully guide and make corrections. Felt safe and welcome. Will be back for his class, highly recommend. 🥰
Sara is an AMAZING instructor. The type of instructor I’d want for any workout class. Forward, kind, but also very motivating and commanding voice. She was really great at the demonstrations and took the time to learn everyone’s name. 100% take a class with her!!!

Instructor had great energy and was super encouraging! It was my first time at solidcore but i felt really welcomed and pushed to do my best. Will likely be coming back soon.
MY FAV INSTRUCTOR LOVE YOU GRACE !
First class while travelling in NYC - I felt super welcome, the trainer was amazing doing everything so I feel comfortable, enjoy myself and do the correct form! I do lagree a lot but this one burnnnnns different. Would 100% be back! <3
Contrary to some of the reviews, I had a wonderful experience at solidcore. Francesca was super welcoming and gave me a quick rundown of what to expect at the studio, and Sarah did me a solid with the outer glutes workout. Her cues and demo were clear and went around correcting our form. Intense but totally recommend!
Absolutely amazing class with head coach Ambre. She’s attentive and good about correcting your form throughout the class. Intense, rewarding and worth it - if you have the chance to book with her, do it!
I've been coming here on a weekly basis for the last 2 years and have had a very positive experience. All the instructors I've taken classes with are very nice and welcoming, the app is easy to use, and the workout is definitely effective. Would recommend!
Solid Solidcore studio. Staff was super nice, instructors were interactive and hands-on with corrections, and everyone in the class was super chill. The class before me did a great job wiping down the machines as well, so felt very safe doing the exercises.
Took a class here the other day, i prefer other branches, this studio is very big, its bard for the instructor to focus on everyone if class full..
This is a huge location and all the machines are in good condition. It's such a good workout and the instructors are so helpful.
"Hard but fun"
I've been here a number of times to this chain studio. Love this location because it's near my house and what the hell else is out here in Alphabet City for fitness. a lame gym. The part of the NYC world is more for drinking than fitness
Although I usually eschew chains for local businesses. I gotta say that I like this place.
What's to high 5
- clean and modern
- machines are in great shape
- friendly, drive instructors
- a challenging workout
What's the lowlights
- lockers are perpetually broken
- it's heavy on the estrogen

I normally just pick up & put down weights for my workouts (I benched 225 for one rep one time, haha), but when my girlfriend wanted to do a solidcore class I thought I would come and mog her really quick.
I had done one class years ago, but for all intents and purposes this was my first one. Shoutout to the instructor Amina Summers, walking the beginners clearly through everything before class, she made it so easy to be a first timer here.
Y'all ladies are NOT playing in here goddamn, what a fantastic workout. If I had the money to do this 5 times a week and go on a couple runs here and there, it would be OVER for y'all.
By the end of class, I was amidst the ambiance engulfed by dimmed blue lighting, Amina screaming into her little Britney Spears mic "WHO DO YOU WANT TO BE? DON'T GIVE UP ON YOURSELF!" while doing deep lunges on the reformer on completely wobbly legs. Jello legs. I look over and all these girls are just repping them out completely unphased. I just had to tip my cap, I got beat. I was WHOOPED after this class.
I was being a little dramatic just now, Amina was the perfect level of trying to motivate people without doing the most. I hate when workout class instructors do the MOST.
I try to immerse myself in the culture of wherever I am, so you know I had to take a mirror selfie of me flexed up on the reformer after class. Life comes at you fast, one minute you're mr cool guy and the next you're taking a thottie little mirror selfie in solidcore of you and your girlfriend.

The lady at the check in was super helpful and accommodating. She sorted us after we had issues booking on ClassPass. The class was great, coach Emily was superb - very clear and helped with form
If you want to see results, then stick w this class. At first it can be annoying, and confusing, but eventually you figure it out. I work out a lot but this class def gets you core results, and fast. That's the main reason I stuck w the program.
Pretty spacious studio out by Alphabet City. The space is pretty narrow like most stores, with two bathrooms available right by the entrance. The machines are fairly new as well, but they are unfortunately placed too close together for my comfort. I love that Target and Trader Joe's is a stone's throw away and the studio is located right across from the 1st Av (L) train station. Super convenient location!
Much like the largest Trader Joe's in NYC, this subterranean studio is the largest solidcore location in NYC. To enter, you have to go down a long hallway and a flight of stairs but the studio is easily twice the size of other ones I have been to thus far. The locker room is situated on one side of the space, while the bathrooms and water fountain are on the other end. The machines are a little worn as I noticed some of the markings rubbing off and the leather belts cracking and chipping.
I've had a few classes here with Conor and Carly, both of whom are great instructors. There are always promotions and challenges running at this location too. Definitely one of the more busier and livelier locations!

Solidcore is an incredible type of workout! This Nolita location is great, the studio is somewhat underground, but has good AC and air flow
Decor is very classic Solidcore! Coaches are amazing as always.
Highly recommend!

I would've gone to EV more often if the L train functions correctly!
But all the time that I went, I love the instructors here. They're all very beginner friendly and gives you great queue. I also find the loudness of the music vs the instructor bearable. Some studios the music is loud and the instructors are yelling at the same time, therefore hard for me to focus.
Highly recommend Milan H., Amina S. Both great instructors with great vibes!

Solidcore lived up to the hype!
I've been hearing about how hardcore Solidcore is, that I made a mental note to brace myself prior to going.
This particular location was small, with bathrooms right as you walk in to the right, and then the check-in counter, followed by the locker area.
The workout room itself, was beautiful and modern looking. When class started, the lights dimmed to a calming blue that made me feel both focused and like I'm at a club. Our instructor also played popular pop remixes to get us powered to work!
Fortunately, the workout wasn't as crazy fast-paced as I imagined it would be. Instead, there were still slow paced pilates moves. There was a ton of back to back moves with just the reformer machines, and I loved how the class made sure to focus on every part of the body. There was a dedicated arm dumbbell section towards the end.
Despite the great ventilation, I still left sweating, and my body, super sore everywhere, only a couple hours later. Pilates experience or not, the workout is perfectly doable, since the instructor gives different alterations depending on your fitness level. With a fantastic patient instructor who cares for the newcomers, a beautiful space, and a great workout, I'd come again!

Took my first [solidcore] class here recently and loved every minute of it!
Since it was my first class with [solidcore], I came a little earlier before class to get myself oriented. The instructor was very friendly and welcoming and she made sure that the newbies (me and another girl) were situated in between regulars so we would be able to see demonstrations of what each movement should look like.
As for the class itself, be prepared to do a ton of slow and controlled low impact movements. Don't be fooled by the words "slow" and "low impact" - this was one of the most challenging (and rewarding) workout classes I've been to. The instructor came around and made adjustments to help with form and needless to say, my muscles were trembling by the end of the class.
Overall, I had a great time at [solidcore] and will definitely be returning!

Went to first class today- HARD but so much fun and great sweat! Def a challenging class but Jada was incredible, had great music, lots of energy and very clear on instructions - really had a blast and will be coming back :)
DAMN. I love solidcore but normally go to soho. This location is about twice the size and is super nice. It's a little bit in a cave (no cell service lol) but there's WiFi.
Workout was with Dani and I LOVED HER. Like I hated her in the best way. She killed me. Hardest workout I've ever done. Highly highly recommend her class. It was heavy on the arms and I was sore for days.
Front desk guy was very funny and nice.
If I have one SUPER minor complaint it's that the bathrooms are labeled by gender symbols and I had to look up the symbol for women before walking in LOL. I would recommend they write the words "women" and "men" or better yet switch to gender neutral!
Anyway loved it will be back thx Dani you're a monster

New location just opened up this week so I took the class with my mom and we both loved it! Jacob was our instructor and he was great and hysterical and always there to correct our form and help if needed. You really FEEL THE BURN !!! In this class. I know I'm going to be feeling it tomorrow. They have lockers with locks outside and a single men's bathroom and then a women's bathroom with three stalls and one sink. Have face wash ear plugs hair ties all that. And they have two changing rooms. Not sure that I saw any showers ?
All in all great class.
All in all great class.
Yes! Another [solidcore] in the city. This time in our beloved Nolita neighborhood. This location is similar to the Dumbo location as it has 2 rows in the studio. This is my first [solidcore] location where you go downstairs. Kind of reminds me of Flywheel Lincoln center's barre class location, but instead of black, it's white. Washrooms are gendered and stalled, unlike others where it's unisex and single bathrooms. Sarah from the Williamsburg location is teaching this class today. She is one of my favorite instructors at Solidcore. Can't wait to start.
CONGRATS SOLIDCORE ON YOUR 72nd location!!!
