I have been looking to try pilates for the longest time and this place was recommended to me by my cousin. I'm glad I tried it out before reading all the mixed reviews on Yelp. So far, my experience has been great and I'm keeping my fingers crossed it will continue that way. Everyone has been so welcoming, knowing I am new to pilates, the instructors keep an eye out and help me when I need it. Fellow students are super helpful and friendly, as well.

So Starr treats everyone like family and is a Christ follower. Her approach to business is amazing and all the small business owners love her as she is ethical and kind and goes beyond the call of duty to contribute. She keeps the studio updated and spotless so we all feel very comfortable coming in. We all have a part in keeping it clean and cozy. We are like a family, and cannot wait to get back to our workouts during this pause as we love the studio!!!

I started taking classes at Five Starr about 7 months ago. I've been spinning for 20+ years but pilates was new to me. After a month I was officially addicted. I take 6-10 classes (a mix of spinning and pilates) here a week. The instructors each have a different style so you never get bored. The energy there at 6am is incredible. The facility is extremely clean, the parking lot is well lit and everyone is friendly. The owner Starr is very sweet and treats everyone like family.

Two years ago I decided to give Pilates a try. I was a little intimidated however the moment I entered Five Starr and took my first intro class I was s a little intimidated however the moment I entered Five Starr and took my first intro class I was hooked. The environment is very welcoming and all of the instructors are amazing. I take both the Pilates and Spin classes and for the first time in a long time I actually look forward to working out. Five Starr is a major part of helping me reach my health goals and I am so glad I found this great studio in Long Beach.

This place is truly amazing. From the atmosphere all the way to the people. I loved my classes with Dara! She is a rock star. The people in the classes were always so welcoming. If you are ever curious to get your feet wet with cycling or looking for the right place, then you should give this place a shot. It will NOT disappoint. Oh lastly, Starr the owner is the real deal. Engaging with the members and always saying hi. She runs a great business. Give this place a shot. Won't regret! I love it!!!

Ive been attending classes at five star pilates for over a year. I love the classes and the instructors. This year has had some really high highs and some really low lows. Starr and her staff have been so accommodating with postpone my series while I went through some personal issues. I really felt like they cared for me as a friend rather than just a client.

I went there for a few minutes. The instructor was very kind and letting me use the restroom. The place was clean and the music was great. Parking was easy and everything looked very organized. The equipment was plentiful and clean. If I lived near by, I would definitely attend classes here.

Love this place! Never taken pilates before although I've wanted to for a long time! So I was really excited to give this place a try. It's clean, professional and friendly. The instructors are helpful and are good to make sure you're maintaining your form. I also appreciated the follow up call to see if I was happy with the studio and if there was anything I needed. If you're interested in pilates reformer you should give Five Starr a try!

I've never felt more comfortable and relaxed in a cycling class ever!!! The music was encouraging, the atmosphere was indescribable, and the studio itself is spotless. The instructor was extremely motivating and patient. I hadn't even realized I burned hundreds of calories in less than an hour. I cannot wait to come back to this amazing studio again!! The reviews are consistent with the outstanding and unique experience I received! Thanks Starr!!!!!!

I'm 1 month in and have had 13 pilates sessions so far in this month. This place is a dream for a new mom. I had never done pilates before and am so proud of the work I'm able to actually do with this chubby mom bod. I'm literally watching myself tone in places I did not know I'd see muscle again after pregnancy. I feel stronger and more in control of my body. The instructors are helpful, patient and tough. I enjoy knowing what I can expect from each of them and scheduling accordingly.

I started coming here after a friend recommended it. She has the most beautifully toned body and I wanted to start doing what she was doing. I decided to give it a try and now I'm hooked! I love pilates, and the small group classes make it feel more like semi-private sessions. I'm only a few classes in and I am already feeling leaner and stronger. I can't wait to try spin here as well. This place is a gem and I'm so thankful I found it...even though I have to drive a bit to get here.

Having worked at the front desk for Five Starr, I learned that Starr is very detail-oriented and always wants the best for the clientele and for the studio. She also ensures to offer great deals periodically so that fitness opportunities are accessible to everyone! Five Starr also takes pride in keeping a clean and welcoming environment. The goal is for the clientele to enjoy their training with fun and talented instructors that were hand-picked by Starr.

Best workout -- check. Best instructors -- check. Best atmosphere for personal improvement -- check! Five Starr Pilates is so amazing. I love the instructors, the owner is phenomenal, and I get an amazing workout for 60 minutes every time I go there. I also like that it is a professional atmosphere and all people are treated with respect for their abilities and individual needs. Love the workout, and I plan on continuing my membership!

The warm and inviting feel of the studio and the staff is how Five Starr won me over. My experience has been that the staff keeps to the Stotts method, but is allowed to add a personal style to their classest. I have been to other studios where instructor individuality was not encouraged, and the classes would grow stagnate because the instructors were not allowed to change things up if the students were able to handle it. Five Starr has earned my loyalty!

The reasons I am still at Five Starr are: - all of her instructors are kind and not judgmental. - I feel safe at Five Starr and supported. Physically and emotionally. - everything is always so clean and well kept! - Starr laughs at me when I want to quit and encourages me to keep going. - I respect Starr for being a woman business owner and keeping her integrity. She cares about her patrons and protects the business she has created. - I believe in supporting small business owners.

Just had a killer spin workout with Tina. She keeps you motivated and pushes you past what you think you can't do. Sarah brings a lot of energy along with a tough ride in class as well. The music in both classes is always on point and it's very convenient to book a class through the Five Starr app. The staff has been very friendly and welcoming too. I would recommend this place for a good spin workout.

I think I am hooked. The class was small and I believe all their classes are no more than six people. So it really feels like you're getting the help you need from the instructor. Danielle was my instructor and I look forward to going to one of her classes. I highly suggest this location. It's clean, the employees I talked to were nice and helpful. I look forward to continuing my fitness here.

I have scoliosis that has caused me a lot of pain over the years. I was concerned that my lack of coordination may be a problem, but with each class I've gotten so much better. The amazing instructors take the time to make individualized corrections to improve our skills. My body is in the best shape and I rarely have issues with my scoliosis these days. Honestly there isn't a single thing that I don't love about the studio.

I have started cycling classes again after one year ; due to an injury. I have enjoyed classes with Beatrice and Tommy. Both instructor are very knowledgeable about cycling and call you by name.

I have been wanting to try Pilates reformer for a while. So glad I finally made it to class. Really enjoyed my experience at Five STarr. Raquel really gave us a good workout. We worked muscles that we might not get to focus on using other modalities. Definitely will go back!

Two words: Fitness Family. I have taken classes here for over three years now. I have truly met friends here that have been like family to me. Spinning to me, is a celebration of life and placing yourself first. Love the instructors and cannot thank the owner Starr enough for providing this fitness environment.

This studio is welcoming, clean, and organized! There are a variety of classes and instructors as well as private sessions. I started pilates to help heal a prior back injury. The fact that it has changed my quality of life by lessening my pain is enough to keep me coming back...

I started cycling at Five Starr when I developed plantar fasciitis. I was a bit afraid of it but the Five Starr instructors are terrific. I love cycling now and it is a regular part of my routine. My overall endurance has improved so much! I also do occasional Pilates there, which is terrific for toning and strength. Five Starr makes it easy and fun.

Love the pump and pedal class with Beatrice. She is absolutely amazing. The space is perfect! Its not overly crowded like other cycling places, that's one of things I love about this place. Their prices are also very affordable. I definitely would recommend this place to others.

I love my experience so far. I've tried the Reformer Pilates and the Cycling class and the instructors do a great job at varying the workouts so it doesn't feel boring or the same as the last class I took.

Great spin class with Nate at 6 am Tues & Thurs. Facility is very clean and bikes are in good working order. Only minor complaint is the room is a bit stuffy as it is the first class of the day, and it takes a while to cool down, so be prepared to sweat more than usual!

This is my first time taking pilates. Ive taken classes with demetrious and brenda. Both excellent and challenging teachers. Five starr is clean, professional and the classes are small group of people. I like that it small and intimate so the teachers can help you.

Spin Addiction! This could be the best workout EVER! 60 minutes of spin is a cardio blockbuster. Toss out that treadmill and the clothes lying all over the controls! Get going. I highly recommend the studio because it has consistently great instructors, clean, and the instructors really help you meet your goals.

So happy to have this studio in the neighborhood! Excellent staff and challenging classes. The facility is really nice and kept very clean. Classes are small enough that you get one on one attention when you need extra guidance. Highly recommend!

Everyone is so friendly whether they have been members for years or just starting. Starr, and the instructors are amazing! The best part is the app & how we sign up for classes. If you want a small gym where you get results and feel like family is rooting for your personal goal, this gym is for you.
