New York Pilates - West Village

New York City, USA

The New York Pilates Story

As Heather Anderson wound up her career as a dancer, the injuries she had sustained led her to the practice of Pilates. Heather was hooked, and quickly became an instructor before saving enough money to open her own studio. That studio was New York Pilates (“NYP”) and after their first opening they now boast seven locations throughout New York, Long Island and the Hamptons.

“The instructions on form and technique from the instructor were easy to follow.”

“The studio was nicely designed, and the reformers were high quality.”

What To Expect From A New York Pilates Session

New York Pilate’s signature class is their Abs Arms Ass session, a high intensity 45-minute session founded by their master trainer, Heather Anderson. Using pilates reformers, they describe their class as an “immersive mind-body experience” guided by supportive, experienced instructors that are trained to adapt the class to all levels.

The Reception Service

Before the visit, our calls to the branch went unanswered. We were greeted and served promptly, but little more beyond the basics were offered to enhance the service.

The Class Experience

New York Pilates West Village received our Recommended rating for the Class Experience.

Our instructor competently led a well-structured class and had a friendly demeanor. Much like the reception service, a stronger attempt to connect and get to know us would have added to the experience.

The Equipment And Studio

The studio was nicely designed and the reformers were high spec, but there were a few cleanliness and condition issues.

The Facilities And Public Areas

Whilst the public areas had a nice design, some of the basics were missing, such as showers.

Workout and shower towels were not available - instead, a small washcloth was offered. Lockers were not provided - instead, cubby holes were available for our personal items. Free water refill stations were available.

Digital And Technology

Whilst we were easily able to make a reservation online, we were unable to find information such as details on the classes or instructors. The website would benefit from a modernizing refresh.
