Went to a class yesterday with Pennie Ring and it was great !! Pennie is very patient and she does an excellent job accommodating beginners. This facility does not require grip socks and you are not allowed to record while in the class.
713 Pilates is on my favs list!! Quiet, clean, and friendly studio. I took my first class with Coltin, and he is such a gem! My class was challenging, rejuvenating, and fun! My sister, who tried Pilates first time absolutely loved it. Will definitely be back!!
Krista’s studio delivers such a consistent experience with Pilates. She’s great at recruiting instructors with different styles and focuses, so there’s something for everybody. The practice here is very intentional and authentic - you can tell every instructor has studied fitness and anatomy in detail and is really knowledgeable. Each class prioritizes safety first but is also fun and effective. It’s very obvious why Krista and 713 Pilates have such a loyal customer base.
This is the best studio in Houston IMO, and I've been to most of them!! My family and I have been practicing pilates with Krista and her fabulous teachers, off and on, over 15 years. Most recently, I've been doing postpartum pilates work with Lauren. It has been critical to my healing and recovery in all the ways. Big love and such gratitude for these people and this place!
I've been going to 713 Pilates for almost two years now, it's my home away from home. Krista and all the instructors are so attentive, knowledgeable, and fun! Even in a full class I get individualized instruction. 713 Pilates is my mental health break of the day, with the added bonus that I'm physically stronger in my 40's than I ever was in my my 20's. I've been to other pilates studios and can honestly say 713 Pilates is the BEST!
713 Pilates is one of the best experiences you're going to get for pilates within the loop. I have been going consistently for about 6 months now, have tried 3 different instructors, and every single class was fulfilling in a mind/body experience. Everyone there is highly trained, and will provide you with any accommodation you need to get a true workout in, or if you just need some stretching/flexibility. I personally enjoy Pennie's classes the most, but you can't really go wrong with anyone at this location. Highly recommend for anyone trying pilates for the first time, as well as anyone who has been doing it for years.
Ohhh 713 Pilates, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways… 1. Small classes. We’re talking 7 people maximum. So the instructors really do pay attention to the most important things like your form and positioning on the reformers and Wunda chairs. 2. No headsets with microphones where they scream at you to do more reps over the blaring music. And none of that “pulse to the beat of the music” nonsense. Don’t get me wrong, I love beat-driven workouts, but Pilates isn’t meant for that. 713 teaches real Pilates: they’re all about taking it at your own pace, focusing on proper form, and developing strength as you go... not about getting 20 reps in under 30 seconds. 3. The instructors. Each one is so talented with a unique style of teaching, and most importantly— each one is CERTIFIED. This isn’t one of those studios where a new instructor comes in after 50 hours of training. 713 has committed instructors with hundreds of hours of training and years of practice under their belts. Comforting, and non-injury-inducing. Aside from that, it’s great to know that if I want a get-energized session, I can go see Pennie, or if I want a focus-on-your-breath session, Ty’s my girl. 4. The owner of the studio, Krista, is quite possibly the most well-meaning business owner I know in Houston. Her passion for philanthropy is evident in all that she does. It’s a studio that feels like a community.
Instructor Clare brings unique freshness to Pilates. There’s room to modify for injuries, and adjust the level of exercises to meet individual needs. Clare brings her knowledge of body and passion for movement to her classes. She gives useful cues that are helpful in finding and engaging the right muscles. Clare also patiently worked with me during my whole pregnancy. She offered modifications and tirelessly looked out for me during classes. And my favorite part, her energetic and positive attitude is contagious. I always leave class recharged and feeling I did something great for my body! My husband and I enjoy Clare’s classes and always look to see when her name is on the schedule.
713 Pilates is the best! Clare is a wonderful instructor who manages to challenge and encourage you every class. She makes it feel like you’re in a one on one session even when class is full. I highly recommend Clare’s classes and 713 Pilates in general.
I have been going to this studio for a few years now and as a certified fitness instructor this is where I go for fitness instruction. Every teacher is extremely well trained and I feel safe and encouraged every time I go here. Have recommended this studio for clients who want over better health, muscle tone, coordination or even are healing from an injury.
