Disclosure: I have been given complementary classes in return for my honest review. No other compensation has been given.
Can you believe it? I have found a workout that I love! It is true! Sure, there are days that I leave my class ready for a massage or a nap but seriously, it is the best fitness adventure I have had in my adult life.
Since April, my best friend and I have been heading to Club Pilates Cherry Creek at least once a week to our Reformer Pilates class. Now, you might think I am exaggerating when I say it is the best workout I have ever had but guess what – I am not. Your entire body works during these 50 minute classes and goodness you feel it! Feel it good though! While I am nowhere near the picture of health or my health goals, every class I complete I feel my body and mind getting stronger. And, we usually leave class with a smile on our face! We know how to have fun!
Club Pilates Cherry Creek has a number of different types of classes and levels for everyone. Currently, we are attending the Level 1 Reformer Pilates Class but have committed to branching out on some other fusion classes that they offer.
Here are the classes that I have on deck – I will be letting you all know how they go.
CP BARRE/REFORMER FUSION:
The Barre Reformer Fusion Class is a booty-bustin’, quad-quakin’ long lean muscle makin’ ballet barre workout combined with your favorite Club Pilates Reformer Plus repertoire.

This class, like all Club Pilates classes, will train your muscles isometrically, eccentrically and concentrically to yield the greatest metabolic response. You will leave feeling challenged yet invigorated. Offered as Level 1, 1.5, 2 and 2.5!
If you are new to Pilates I really recommend going to a Level 1 Club Pilates Reformer class to have your instructor really gauge your ability and level. Best thing about Club Pilates is that the instructors want the best for you. They do not want you in pain or out of your fitness level, work with them and they will work with you. I have also found that on evenings that I am worn down I can simply ask for a modified step if need be. Exactly how working out should be!
I am looking forward to MANY more classes with my new Pilates buddies at Club Pilates Cherry Creek and hope you will join me! Club Pilates Cherry Creek is located in the Cherry Creek Shopping District – 3000 E 3rd Ave #20, Denver, CO 80206.
