The only workout I truly feel for days and love Amanda’s teaching style! I have definitely noticed changes in my body and it helped me get into a better workout routine without feeling overwhelmed. Try it for a week, you’ll love it! ### 5/5 — Pilates at Home *2024-09-01, version 8.200.1* THIS is how you do Pilates at home! Incredible, knowledgeable, and Amanda focuses so much on form so I really appreciate that! The classes are challenging but I always leave feeling so much stronger and balanced. This is my first time staying consistent with an at home Pilates practice - would definitely recommend! ### 5/5 — Love!! *2024-07-07, version 8.200.1* Amazing workouts! Only Pilates mat videos I’ve seen real results from. Nice to have all the videos in an app and love having the roku app on my TV. ### 5/5 — Favorite workout ever *2024-05-07* I have been doing Pilates by Amanda and now Core Club since last April and it is life changing. I always workout 4-5 times a week. I was never big on at-home workouts until I didn’t have a choice like everyone else. I never was able to motivate myself to get a good burn but holy moly , lol, Amanda is sweet but a little insane and I love her. My abs are more defined then ever and my legs are leaner then they’ve been in years. She does right along with you and it’s amazing . ### 5/5 — Well Rounded and Fun Pilates Classes *2024-02-15* I love Amanda’s style of teaching, as well as her use of props. There’s a good variety of class lengths and levels, but I really love when I have time for the hour long advanced classes. I’m a big fan of props and love that she incorporates weights, bands, a pilates ball and pilates circle into many of her routines, but also gives the option to do the exercises without them. Her cues are excellent and give me confidence in my form. The workouts are gentle on the body but still make you work hard and get a good sweat going! I also love her sense of humor and realness too! ### 5/5 — Effective! *2023-10-09, version 8.200.1* I originally signed up for Core Club after getting injured from snowboarding 2 years ago. My doc recommended only low impact workouts so i decided to give core club a try. I thought there was no way i would like this because it’s all virtual and “how hard can online low impact classes be” (since i used to be a HIIT, heavy weight lifting girlie). I was wrong. Amanda’s mat pilates are challenging and effective and fun all at the same time (she’s pretty funny). I love her energy and the way she explains correct form is easily understandable. I’ve tried mat pilates at my gym and let me tell you… the 1 hour pilates at my gym doesn’t even compare to the 15-25 minute “quickie” workouts Amanda puts you through!! She’s also responsive on instagram and is willing to give suggestions to tweak form depending on your injury, etc. Overall - would HIGHLY recommend. I wish I could come to one of her classes. ### 5/5 — The best at home Pilates Program!!! I love it! *2023-08-14, version 8.200.1* Exactly what I was looking for! ### 5/5 — Following since the inception *2023-08-06* I started doing these at home during lockdowns before she even had the app. The app was such a wonderful transition and I love it!

Amanda’s ques make you better at Pilates and more connected to your body. Cannot recommend this app enough! ### 5/5 — My fav Pilates app *2023-04-03, version 8.101.1* This is my go to app every day I can’t make it to a studio class and it’s wonderful! Highly recommend! ### 5/5 — Fantastic Pilates content *2023-03-23, version 8.101.1* I have been practicing Pilates in a studio (and still do) for over 15 years. Started this program during the pandemic and can’t quit it! It’s challenging, Amanda’s cues are spot on and it’s a great way to get a great workout in everyday. Love it!! ### 5/5 — Love this app! *2022-12-06* I’m not one to write a review ever on the App Store but I had to for Core club. So I’m 20 weeks pregnant and I’m LOVING the prenatal workouts. Amanda the creator is also pregnant in the workouts so it’s easy to relate to her and how she feels. I also love the intensity of the workouts. Before pregnancy I was a crazy workout person so now being pregnant it was hard to find workouts that cater to pregnant woman but also that don’t baby us. Like I still wanna feel like I got a solid workout in. So I love her workouts! I will definitely keep doing them all the way till I’m due and then definitely after too. ### 5/5 — The best at home Pilates Program *2022-10-02, version 7.621.1* Exactly what I was looking for! ### 5/5 — Fantastic platform and program! *2022-09-17* I found Core Club through Instagram (I’ll admit it - I was influenced!!). I’m really enjoying Amanda’s programs. It is challenging but it is at a good pace ..to where you don’t really notice it as much in the moment. You get a killer workout without even noticing it. The app has been great, no issues, please with the reliability and functionality. Thank you!! ### 5/5 — Best workout app! *2022-09-07, version 7.621.1* Not only are these workouts engaging, fun, and hard, but this app makes staying dedicated to a workout routine so easy! Amanda is a great instructor and I recommend this to everyone! ### 5/5 — Best work out ever!! *2022-08-21, version 7.621.1* I love Amanda the classes are so fun the burn is soo good and I just can’t enough.

It wasn’t showing up in my app subscriptions (yes, I called Apple) even though I subscribed via my phone. I’ve reached out to every possible help multiple times from the app, her website, Apple, Vimeo (who hosts it) over and over and never get a response. I’m still being charged. I complained via Amex who has a phone number listed for the vendor which went to Amanda’s cell phone. Nope, no one returned my call. I’m now out $39 bucks which isn’t the end of the world but it’s not OK to sign up for a free trial and not let you cancel. If I get charged again I’m having Amex take over the dispute. I love her Pilates style but this is not OK. ### 2/5 — Workouts are great but unable to add promo code in apple subscription… *2022-12-04, version 7.702.1* I would love to pay for an annual subscription with the promo codes but there’s no way to do so with the apple App Store ### 3/5 — Solid Workouts, Low Budget Production *2022-02-17* Love these workouts; however, for the price, I really wish production quality was better. I just did a workout during which the camera was literally shaking sporadically the entire video! Imagine being in the middle of a killer workout, then looking up only to see the video shaking! Made me dizzy. On top of that, there was a point in the video when Amanda’s leg was shaking so much ( indeed a testament to the great workout) and the “cameraman” starts giggling! Hahaha As another reviewer said, either lower the price point or invest in better quality production. ### 3/5 — Great workout, low quality videos *2021-04-01* I absolutely love Pilates by Amanda. Her workouts are always different from each other and very crews! Her cueing is very clear and very on point and you will get an incredible workout for sure! I got very toned up only in one month. However, the price point is very high for the production quality. It looks like it was filmed on an iPhone and the sounds quality is the same way. The lighting is not that great either. For the price point the quality should be much better. Either lower the monthly price or invest in better equipment please ### 3/5 — Great workouts, not well produced videos *2021-03-04, version 6.030.1* These workouts are great but the overall production quality of the videos is really low. This amateur video production- no lighting, no editing, not super rehearsed, no licensed music. I just think for $35/month you can find higher quality workouts online and this just feels like a very high price point for what goes into producing these videos. ### 4/5 — great workouts! *2025-12-26* recording quality continues to improve! the workouts are great and innovative, i feel like im getting much more connected to my core and improving my basic strength to do daily activity and also the sports i want to do otherwise. The website categories and functions are a bit clunky still but it does the job. ### 5/5 — Best thing ever *2026-07-07* I’ve used this app and been a member of Core Club for at least two years now and love it. The workouts are hard and engaging and have changed the way my body looks, but more importantly they’ve made me stronger and have helped me prevent running injuries because of the way they’ve strengthened my muscles. I recommend Core Club to all my friends. The app is also great to use and I love the calendar feature so I don’t have to think about which workout to do , it maps it out for me. Love it. ### 5/5 — Best Pilates App! *2025-09-27, version 9.100.1* I love everything about this app and Amanda. First of all, the aesthetic is beautiful. I have had four postpartum seasons and the programs are perfect to slowly enter back into full time Pilates. ### 5/5 — Favorite workout ever *2025-05-31* I have been doing Pilates by Amanda and now Core Club since last April and it is life changing.

This app has and continues to give me the best results and challenge me beyond what I thought I could do. I’ve tried way too many apps and in person classes, and for me nothing else has compared. As a Pilates instructor myself, her classes give me the ability to have my own practice that challenges me and delivers fresh variations/cues to classical exercises Thank you! ### 5/5 — Rlyva *2025-03-12, version 8.801.1* Love these! ### 5/5 — Favorite Workouts *2025-03-03, version 8.801.1* I love these workouts. I used these for prenatal and postnatal workouts as well and it was amazing. Challenging and rewarding workouts! ### 5/5 — Invigorating *2025-02-04, version 8.801.1* Outlier. I’ve tried every fitness app imaginable, and Pilates by Amanda is by far superior. Just keep moving! ### 5/5 — Best thing ever *2024-11-19* I’ve used this app and been a member of Core Club for at least two years now and love it.

Then kept me fit during pregnancy with safe prenatal workouts and was amazing to get back in shape postpartum. Best at home Pilates with smart guidance and hard workouts.
