Vera Pilates — Local services in Houston

I've been going to Vera since April and can say being a member has really changed my lifestyle for the better! I go 3-4x a week so have spent a lot of time here. The studio is welcoming with every spot being always clean aesthetic picture ready and smells great. There are 11 reformers. Instructors are fantastic - Dineka is big on form, so I feel so safe attending her classes. She is encouraging and checks on everyone to make sure you are maximizing your work out. I also appreciate when she shout outs on good form. She's the best! Rachel is super fabulous as well. She encourages feedback and listens. So if you say you liked the music one class she'll make sure you get it again and more the next week. My favorite part about the studio culture is the engagement. They had a Vera challenge for 28 days where you starred the number of classes attended and may receive prizes at the end depending on how many you went to. The first opening month every Sunday there were vendors giving free juices, donuts, or meal prep. They also have celebrated themes like Beyonce week and Love Island finale. They even host private pilates parties. The only thing that may bother some people is because it's so aesthetic, some girlies may record themselves during class. So then in consequence you may be in the background..also being recorded. I understand content will be edited and likely whoever extra is in their frame will be cut, so it does not bother me but I can see how it can be a privacy issue for others. Overall, definitely recommend Vera. I have already brought so many friends over who have really enjoyed it who will be...

A long time ago I tried reformer Pilates at a different studio and had an absolute terrible experience. This was 7 years ago and I never tried it again. Earlier this year in May, my friend invited me to Vera to try their signature experience class. I am so grateful to God that I decided to go and didn't let the fear from years ago stop me. All of the instructors I've had so far have been incredibly welcoming and kind. I love how they gently correct you if needed and ask beforehand if it's okay that they gently touch you to adjust your posture. I have to give a big shout out to Nina-Simone though. She noticed I struggled during a certain move and asked me after class if I was sore hence why I couldn't do the move properly. Once I confirmed that to her I also mentioned how I have horrible balance. She sweetly nodded her head and said "noted". It might be such a simple act but it's one I appreciate so much. I can see the passion flow and the fact that she took a few minutes after class to ask me meant so much. I feel like I am slowly gaining confidence in reformer and I'm so grateful I overcame my fear of trying it again. I also love to see the scripture throughout class. I love Jesus and God and it's so refreshing to attend a studio with like minded individuals. I look forward to continuing classes here and get better each time. I'm a Vera girly for life now and will always highly recommend attending...

I just took my second class this week at Vera Pilates and it was so good that I literally booked my 3rd session for this Friday! These girls are so amazing that I had to write a review 🩷

From the moment you walk in, it feels like pure Zen — so peaceful and pretty! The place smells incredible, and everything just feels so relaxing. I took my first class with Julissa, and girl, let me tell you… it was EXTREMELY challenging! But her playlist? FIRE! I loved matching my movements to the beat, which somehow distracted me from the pain (game-changer lol)! I definitely felt muscles I didn’t even know existed, and I was sore the next day in places I never expected.

I also got to meet the owner, who joined the class I took with Rachel! It was such a cool experience having her there — and she’s SO NICE! Rachel brought such positive energy and did an incredible job of kicking our butts, even when one participant needed extra attention.

Vera is super accommodating to all levels, so I’m definitely bringing my girls — even the ones new to Pilates. And girl, there’s a nail salon literally next door, so one of these days, I’m definitely getting my nails done after class lol.

Anyway, I highly recommend Vera Pilates to anyone looking for a killer workout in a welcoming environment.

See y’all...
