"Look it, Feel it, Live it" - that is the motto. Take these classes and you will see results!Location and Vibe: The Playa Vista location is my favorite studio not only because it offers free parking, but also because of its awesome instructors, dedicated staff and overall vibe.Welcoming front desk and awesome instructors: As soon as you walk in, you are greeted by people like Lauren or Justice who go out of their way to provide excellent customer service and create a welcoming atmosphere. It is apparent that the owner, Lisa, puts a tremendous amount of effort into the business to ensure clients are satisfied/challenged by the constantly evolving classes (particularly those designed by the one and only, Justin Jairam!). Below please see my pic with Justin - Justin is truly an asset to the Studio MDR Community - we are twinning with the curly hair! This photo was taken after I completed his class. If you are new to the studio, you should definitely take a class with Justin, Svetlana, Samarah, Prima, or Stephanie - there are many great instructors to learn from - you can't go wrong.Friendly, competitive environment: I completed over 14 classes as part of the summer challenge and feel considerably stronger as a result. Classes are challenging, but there are modifications for every move and there is no pressure to try to be like anyone else - you are encouraged to do what feels right for your body.Thanks to everyone who helps make this Studio MDR a first class experience!

The essentials class kicked my butt! Loved that they had an assistant to the instructor to demo the different exercises. There is free street parking, or they validate for the parking for the structure.

I will start of by saying that I did not take this class. I'm sure it's a great workout. The one star is for how strict they are. I showed up for class on time, but I had missed an email asking me to come 10 minutes earlier. As a result, they did not let me into the class and I will be charged a missed reservation fee. I have been to dozens of fitness studios all around Los Angeles and no one is as strict as this. I will not return here.

Tried my first pilates class today at The Studio!First off, I'm not totally sure about the parking situation but I was able to secure a 2 hr parking spot on Millenium dr, you might have to park in the garage if those aren't available.I was immediately welcomed with a smile coming in by the girl at the front desk and the instructor as well. She gave me a run-through of the reformer before class. Class was KILLER. I thought that being a weightlifter would give me a leg up but NOPE, no leg up at all LOL. Had to take so many breaks during the 45 mins but still had a lot of fun. You'll work out your entire body so be prepared! Also, the classroom is very cute and aesthetically pleasing, just a side note!!

Never did Pilates in my life because watching videos of it stresses me out. But the class for one of my friends where I met the instructor Samarah, Who is not only just a great trainer, but she's informative and educational. The facility is super clean and the people are really nice. Definitely recommend.

Favorite workout studio BY FAR! Always a challenging workout and great energy. The owner is super friendly and staff always remembers my name. I live all the way in Long Beach and drive there three times a week because it's so addicting. Definitely not your average Pilates studio so do a little research on the Lagree method before you go. And bring a towel cause you're gonna sweat your pride off lol!

I love MDR Pilates! The studio is always clean, machines are the latest, and welcoming environment in every visit. I drive 30 miles to their studio for their quality instructors my favs are Erickson de Frantes, Albina, Lindsey and Justin. I hope to try and take more classes with other instructors, but I'm limited in time! I guareente you're going to love the efficiency and sweat in this workout!

Took my first class last night and cannot wait to go back! The instructor Samarah was so friendly and motivating. There was also a helper, Leo who was also great. Truly can’t wait for my next class!

Super clean and smelled fresh upon entry. The machines used were spotless and seemed pretty new. The receptionist who checked me in was friendly and all smiles which is great because first impressions tend to color the rest of the experience for me. Meghan was the instructor for that morning. She may be petite and friendly, but do not underestimate how difficult her class is! I do Lagree 5-6 days per week and she still gave me a challenging workout. The location of the studio is also nice because Whole Foods is at the same location. There are also eateries to in the same building if you want to reward yourself after the Lagree workout. If I lived in the area, I definitely would be a regular!
