Studio X | Costa Mesa at a glance

Reviewers highlight the studio's clean facility, ample mirrors, and challenging Reformer classes led by knowledgeable instructors who provide clear cues and hands-on form corrections. However, recurring complaints involve strict policies regarding grip socks, which are not clearly communicated during booking and cost twenty-five dollars if not brought. Additionally, some customers report dissatisfaction with contract cancellation terms and perceive a decline in instructor experience levels, leading to mixed opinions on value.

This is the best Pilates Studio I’ve ever worked out at! The classes are really challenging and the instruction is top notch. If you get a chance, try to take a class with the owner, Amanda or Lollia…. They are both really great, but so are all the instructors. They are very well trained.

Just took a Pilates class with Amanda, the owner, and wow, she absolutely kicked my butt! 😂 I thought I was in pretty good shape, but this class definitely humbled me. Amanda was amazing throughout the entire class. She’s super welcoming, knowledgeable, and really knows how to push you while keeping things fun and encouraging. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does and cares about everyone having a great experience. Definitely recommend giving her class a try. I’ll absolutely be back!

Staff and the instructor, Lolla, were very friendly and attentive. The facility was kept clean and had a nice vibe to it with plenty of mirrors so you could check your form. It was also easy to find parking!

Amanda is MEANT to instruct classes. She’s so positive, helpful, and supportive. If you’re a beginner I recommend reformer x tower 1 with Amanda, you’ll leave more confident and knowledgeable about the machine and correct form.

Lollia is a great teacher. It may have been a Level 1 class but she will work you hard even with the basics. She’s a great instructor and very cheerful…keeps a great command of the class and always offers great corrections in body form. I’m a huge Reformer fan at StudioX classes are always off the charts; never boring!!
