Tried the Reformer x Bellicon class today. Darci was very patient and did a good job walking around the class helping students correct form and demonstrate form. The class featured both a reformer portion and a bellicon (trampoline) portion. Darci was real accommodating and even helped a new mom on a modified workout. A perfect class for beginners to intro the equipment and movement.The actual facility was nice and sanitary there are rental socks available as well as new socks to buy.

I've been here several times now and worked with a couple different instructors, Bianca and Skye. Both women are fun to work with and make class enjoyable. Every class is challenging, if you need modifications just ask. I would highly recommend this studio.

Pilates on Purpose is a cute little Pilates reformer studio in central Newport. When arriving to their location, there is a decent sized parking lot, however be warned that during "lunch rush" there is a valet, so sometimes you need to park on the street to not pay. I have never had a problem finding a spot. The studio is tucked back on the ground floor. Definitely arrive early your first lesson because it isn't the easiest to find in the complex! The studio is super cozy, with around 8 reformer machines. The classes start usually a little after their start time because the classes are back to back 60 minutes. Meaning if you take their 5:30 class, the 4:30 class will not end until right at 5:30. It is great if you are chronically running a minute or two late. All of the instructors seem to really know their stuff! They are super knowledgeable and helpful with correcting your form. All of the teachers are extremely friendly and really take the extra step to get to know you. They will also probably chat with you and the fellow Pilates attendees during your class about what is going on in your life. It is a very open and friendly environment!What attracted me to the studio is they have so many different class times and instructors!! You can really book a Pilates class for anytime of the day practically. The only downside with this studio, is that it is more of a place for beginners. They rarely offer reformer 2 classes. The basic reformer classes almost always have a newbie or two and the exercises account for them. The exercises can be a smidge too easy for people who regularly practice 2/3 times a week. I would highly recommend this studio who is new to Pilates or is a beginner!

A well equipped studio in a comfortable commercial building. Instructor Skye is knowledgeable and patient, and also firm in her commitment that the student get the most out of each session. There is a small group room with 5 Pilates machines and a private room with a machine called "the Cadillac". If Pilates is something you choose to pursue, this place should be on your list. A bit pricey, but groups are less expensive then private lessons.

I went my first time today with Dilaria and she was great and so patient with my group ( there were 5 of us)! Most of us are beginners and she did a great job easing us in 10/10!

Recently took class here with Darci and Skye and they are hands down some of the best Pilates instructors whose classes I have been to! They are so attentive to form and the classes feel so individual thanks to the small studio sizes.

It doesn't surprise me that every review has given this place 5 stars. This studio is great people doing great body movement. Darci, the owner, is a wonderful teacher and even more wonderful human - you feel like family after just a few classes. And you form great community with other students because the classes are small and there's a sense of camaraderie. I look forward to Pilates mornings with this crew!

This was my first time attending pilates purpose. I took Biancas class tonight. She did such an amazing job teaching the class. I loved that Bianca asked if there were any specific areas we would like to focus on before the class started! We did a full body workout and before you knew it the class was over! It definitely flew by because of Biancas upbeat and great energy! I will definitely be coming back to the studio for another one of her classes! Many thanks Bianca

Being a lifelong athlete, I was always hesitant to start Pilates because I didn't think it was "man enough". Boy was I wrong. Not only is the workout strenuous but it is done safely and with correct form. Darci is very conscious of my many ailments and is constantly inquiring about whether a particular movement or exercise is putting additional strain on the wrong area. She is great and very knowledgeable! Love that place!!

I first got a Groupon to feel the place out and save money but I ended up signing up for an additional month. Everyone is so kind and helpful yet they kick my butt in class. I have done everything from CrossFit to yoga but they have made me fall in love with Pilates. In my 37 years of living I have never had a "behind" and one is finally growing!!! I highly recommend for the workout but also the people. Darci has been so attentive to all of my questions and scheduling. Love, love, love!
