Wowwwwww!
I was staying at my parents’ place in the valley and looked up a Pilates studio in the area on ClassPass. My usual picks, motivate and kv lagree, were booked so I ventured to this one.
And, consider me IMPRESSED! This studio is stunning. I wasn’t sure what to expect bc it’s in a strip mall but as soon as you open the doors you’re transported into an exceptional space. Their merchandise even reminded me of things you’d find at Hotel Bel-Air.
The instructor was great too! So sweet and motivating.
Just had to come and share a rave review bc, yessss! I’ll be back :).

Quel cours amusant! I decided to return again for a second time after the kind owner, Sam, reached out to me and invited me to return. The class today was with the beautiful instructor, Leilani.
Her class was so fun and challenging. I enjoyed every moment and there were definitely several times where I was literally shaking and dripping sweat. It felt so good to learn new Pilates moves that I had never tried before. It’s so exciting to see the creative lessons that instructors come up with. TheThis second time around the new young lady behind the desk with the lovely long eyelashes was very kind to me and asked me how I felt about the class, I forgot her name, but she was very sweet and she made me feel very comfortable. The instructor was also so pleasant to talk to. I definitely would love to return again. Thank you guys for being being so nice to me! A la prochaine fois~~~

I’m a repeat offender! I’m obsessed with this studio. I’m going to give you all the reasons they have me coming back!!!
Elevated ambiance–The studio is a peaceful haven that feels luxurious, yet inviting. I want to move in.
Signature energy–Dynamic reformer choreography that strengthens and centers you in equal measure.
Focused attention–Small class sizes mean more instructor guidance and better alignment.
Clean & safe–Thoughtful hygiene practices make every visit feel secure and refreshed.
Community & motivation–It’s more than a workout; it’s a ritual that feeds mind, body, and spirit.

Figue Madera is a clean and beautifully designed studio located in a plaza with plenty of parking. The space has an elegant and calming feel. Note: shoes are requested to be removed at the entrance to help keep the studio clean.
Each class is 50minutes. Evelyn was the instructor for my first class at this location. She maintained a steady pace, provided clear instructions, and offered modifications throughout for both beginners and more advanced clients.
The owner mentioned that additional class times will be added soon (evening sessions). Overall, the staff is very welcoming and friendly. The space is stunning and my experience was wonderful! I highly recommend stopping by and trying out a class from this location!

This new Pilates studio is absolutely beautiful! But it doesn’t stop there…. The instructors are spot on. Yes it’s beautiful and you feel the elevated enchantment of the space but you will also get a great workout that will challenge you and develop your full body strength & core, your balance, and your flexibility! The instructors are educated & welcoming and will give modifications for all levels. I highly recommend this studio and am very grateful to get a great full body workout right here in Northridge! (Also check out their new studio at The Village)!

I hosted my birthday here and it was remarkable experience. The team was so helpful, detail oriented, sweet and kind throughout the whole planning process. The workout class was amazing! My friends and I shared so much laughter. The beauty of the place is more gorgeous in person! It’s perfect for Bridal Showers, Birthdays, and Girl Day!

Impression upon entrance: a beautiful high feminine energy studio. The atmosphere alone is spectacular! The design is so different than any other studios I have ever been to, and I’ve been all over the US.
The atmosphere is clean, inviting, and warm! They Encourage selfies in their beautiful mirror!
The class was challenging and fun.
I went to an “August reset” class and it included a full body workout. Legs, arms, core.
The instructor was clear and engaged. The only critique I have is to occasionally fix improper form. I didn’t see any corrections but it was an event and a full class so that might be the case
Overall, a great experience! I would certainly come back!
Lynda S.
Love everything about this studio and it’s at the heart of the valley! The most aesthetic pilates studio I’ve been too by far and staff are so welcoming and helpful! So recommended!!
Brooklin S.
I thoroughly enjoyed my workout at this studio. It was refreshing to have a physically demanding workout surrounded by such a beautiful studio aesthetic. I would definitely recommend and return!
Roxy R.
I don’t even know where to begin! I’ve been a customer since August and have enjoyed every single minute of it. I started with the Beginners Foundation class and now exclusively book El Reformer and I absolutely love it!
While I haven’t had the chance to take every instructor’s class, I’ve been lucky enough to train with Evelyn and Sophia, and they are truly AMAZING. Each brings a unique teaching style and focus, but both are incredibly motivating, kind, and patient. I always leave feeling stronger, more accomplished, and proud of my progress. When I first started, I had zero upper body strength, now I can genuinely say I’m seeing and feeling the difference!
The studio itself is STUNNING. Walking in feels like stepping into a chic Parisian hotel lobby; elegant, calming, and thoughtfully designed. The entire staff is welcoming, friendly, and always willing to help, which makes every visit such a positive experience.
I can’t recommend Figue Madera Pilates enough to anyone beginning or continuing their fitness journey, especially if Pilates is part of it. Thank you, Figue Madera Pilates, for igniting a true passion for Pilates in me!

It’s my 6th class with Evelyn, and she is so adorable. I feel every part of my body, my legs, butt, waist, core, everything is so engaged during the classes. I didn’t have any class that would be similar to another, every class is different, every time it’s so challenging. Love you, Evelyn and Figue Madera!♥️
Karina Perez
This studio is truly exceptional. The classes are thoughtfully structured, engaging, and always fun. I absolutely love Evelyn’s classes—each one is unique, and I can truly feel myself getting stronger week by week. She takes the time to perfect your form, offers helpful modifications when needed, and strikes the perfect balance of being patient yet challenging. You’re guaranteed to leave every class sweaty and accomplished!
No matter where you are on your Pilates journey, you’ll feel welcomed here. This studio is an absolute must-try!
Edith.
I had my very first Pilates class at The Studio, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From the moment I walked in, I felt completely welcomed the front desk team was so warm and inviting, and the space itself is absolutely stunning. It’s modern, clean, and has such a calming, chic vibe that instantly makes you feel at ease.
Our instructor Evelyn was fantastic, guiding me patiently through every move without ever making me feel overwhelmed or pressured. The atmosphere is upbeat but relaxed, and the music is always on point, which makes the workouts even more enjoyable.
Preet has been my go-to for the 5 AM class, and she is truly amazing. She keeps everyone motivated, switches up the routines regularly, and ensures we’re working all areas of the body. I love how she brings such great energy that early in the morning it’s the perfect way to start the day!
Highly recommend The Studio to anyone curious about Pilates, whether you’re a complete beginner or looking to deepen your practice. Total gem! 💫
Kathy T.
I came to the studio when they first opened. They have amazing classes. I especially love Evelyn classes. She plays the most amazing music, especially música en español, I love her sm. definitely recommend.

Figue Madera Pilates is easily one of the most beautiful studios I’ve ever worked out in. Every detail feels so intentional, and you can tell how much thought went into creating the space. It’s not only a beautiful place to work out, but also one filled with great energy and great people. The instructors are all so kind, helpful, and incredibly attentive throughout class.
Kenya Hughes.
Decided to walk over and give them a try! I love yoga & so a friend recommended I try pilates. Since this is a 5 minute walk from my house, I decided to give their evening “beginners” class a try.
So – it definitely kicked my ass!
But the instructor was so good, and attentive, challenging but with a gentle push for sure!
I, on the other hand felt things in my back & hip sockets that I didn’t know existed and forgot how much effort it takes to suck in my stomach & stabilize my abs! I thought I would wake up sore but I actually feel really relaxed and like I had a really good message.
The workout was a win and i’ll be back 🙂
**As a kinky curly girl I sweat a lot but not to the point of messing up my hair which was a double win.**
Kristin Destajo.
I absolutely loved my experience at Figue Madera Pilates! ✨ Leilani was such an incredible instructor — so attentive, encouraging, and genuinely passionate about helping you feel your best. The studio itself is unlike anything I’ve ever seen before, with the most gorgeous Parisian aesthetic that makes every visit feel dreamy and elevated. All of the thoughtful details, from the custom tote bags to the claw clips, show just how much heart goes into this space. I can’t wait to come back again — already obsessed!
Sarah Johnson
Beautiful studio, easy to book classes, and great instructors! Four stars because it’s more expensive than other studios.

Preet K.
Figue Madera is such a beautiful space, literally what dreams are made of. Think I’m being dramatic? You’ll just have to go and see for yourself! The owners are the sweetest people and have taken the time to curate an aesthetic and welcoming space for all. Pilates can be intimidating however, the workouts are catered to speak to all levels and each instructor brings their own unique twist so you’ll definitely feel the burn!! So glad for this newest addition to the valley!
Morgana Kimbro
Overall very nice studio! The interior is beautiful and clean. Some of the instructors are great, others okay. Ive been attending classes multiple times a week but recently I’ve noticed on two occasions my machine wasn’t set up properly resulting in uneven weighting on the straps. Still love coming here tho
Elisabeth Mahon
Figue Madera is a beautiful new local studio I was lucky enough to try on their opening day!
The class was perfect. I was sore for a few days after. There are 12 reformers, making the class super easy to follow and personalized corrections/ modifications as needed. The instructor Evelyn was so sweet and helpful. This is my new home studio!
Saidou Toni

I’m booking my monthly subscription August 1st!!!
SusSano S
Parisian inspired Pilates studio in Northridge? I can’t believe this is real. I’ve been waiting for years to have a Pilates studio in the valley and it’s finally open. They offer beginner classes and intermediate for people who have done Pilates in the past. Their merch is the most beautiful Pilates merch you can find ever. The quality is 100% cotton and has beautiful embroidery of their name. Evelyn was the instructor I tried and she was so good. Definitely will be getting a membership.
Mayra Ortega

Although I was new to Pilates, I felt comfortable from the very first moment thanks to the bilingual staff. The studio has an elegant style, is impeccably clean, and has a beautiful aroma.
I left eager to return. 100% recommended for those looking for a cozy, chic, and accessible space that’s also bilingual.
Era Trouvaille
I absolutely LOVEEE Figue Madera Pilates!! I just had my third class this morning and I feel amazing. The New Year is coming so I need to be SNATCHED and I’m already liking what I’m seeing and more importantly I’m liking how I’m FEELING. Each class I’ve done has been challenging but I’m feeling myself get stronger more quickly than I expected. The studio is stunning and I’m obsessed with aesthetics so it was automatically 5 stars when I first walked in. Your mirror selfies will be top tier in here! Arrive early so you can get your selfies in before class starts. All the instructors are VERY sweet and motivating as well. I already can’t wait until my next class!! 🌸✨
Priscilla Vargas
I had a great experience at Figue Madera Pilates in Topanga! The ambiance is relaxing the space is beautifully designed, smells amazing, and feels super clean the moment you walk in. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better.
The class was amazing challenging in the best way. I definitely left sore (in a good way!) and feeling strong and refreshed. Overall, such a beautiful studio with great energy. I’ll 100% be coming back!
Karen
Just finished my 26th Pilates class at FM!!! Hooray me! The ambiance, instructors, and energy at FM make it easy and enjoyable for me to keep coming back. I started at their Northridge studio and now attend their Topanga Village location because it’s closer to home, but both locations are great! I feel stronger and my posture has improved tons. My class time also serves as my meditation/me time…which we all deserve. Thanks FMP! And special shout out to Dani, Ginny and Evelyn, my fave instructors 🫶🏼
Cilla Vee
Loving this new Topanga location it’s super convenient with easy access and parking, and the studio itself feels peaceful and elegant like a true wellness escape. Everything is spotless and well organized, and the staff is always friendly and professional. Definitely a place to return to my friends I loved it!
Amy Tadros
That class was amazing! I felt so sore but energized after. The instructor was knowledgeable and helpful. She challenged us in the best way. She was encouraging us to try harder and put in more effort. I’ll definitely be returning to 🙂
Ina Mel
I work right across, this has been a game changer for me. Going 4 times a week and love how each day is a different instructor so I get to experience completely different workouts. Most importantly its super clean and staff is incredibly kind! Thanks guys for opening this location! 🌹
