I came back to update my review after 6 months of membership at Sense. I have seen the studio grow into a beautiful and inclusive community prioritizing balance and wellness. Getting a membership has helped me maintain consistency in my practice and both my body and mind feel strong and peaceful. After taking different instructors, you get a feel for whose classes you enjoy the most and scheduling is always flexible and a breeze (they have so many classes everyday). If you’re looking to truly immerse yourself in reformer, this is definitely the place for you. I’ve taken classes at other studios here in Houston but nothing comes close to how much I enjoy Sense. The staff truly seek to build connections with their clients and you can see it by the class turn outs - people of all ages and body types show up first thing in the morning. The body roller is also so relaxing and helpful with lymphatic drainage!
Original Review: Sense Pilates just opened up and it’s already beating out other Houston area studios for me! The studio is beautiful and well spaced out, and the owner is so incredibly sweet.

I was dripping sweat from the intensity of the exercises. I had never used one of these pilates machines so I was not sure what I was getting into at first but it was well worth it! It truly is a full body workout touching on strength, stability, flexibility, and full body control as you go through the exercises slowly and not in any rush. My class instructor was Nancy Cruz who clearly is a veteran in the industry based on the way she taught her class, demonstrated all the exercises and communicated clearly and confidently to all of us taking the class. I already signed up for a monthly membership so that I could add this amazing workout into my exercise routine...
Read moreI took a class this past Saturday, and I wish I could remember the instructor's name because she was absolutely phenomenal. It was one of those challenging classes—but in the best possible way. She emphasized proper form and provided consistent encouragement throughout, which made a huge difference.
Lately, I’ve noticed that some Pilates classes from different studios try to make things more intense by incorporating HIIT elements, which I find unnecessary and distracting from the essence of Pilates. This instructor, however, stayed true to the core principles of the practice, and it was incredibly refreshing. I woke up the next morning feeling strong and sore in all the right places.
Highly recommend this studio and even better if you go with some...
