Two years ago I was seeing a chiropractor and a physical therapist every single week. My back problems felt like a permanent part of my life. Then I started private Pilates sessions with Yonatan. My posture has transformed, and the chronic back pain that drove me to weekly appointments is completely gone. I no longer see the chiropractor. I no longer see the physical therapist. And honestly? Pilates for back pain has not only changed my body, it's actually saved me money. Two years in, and I'm not stopping anytime soon.

Coming to LA for a few months I was overwhelmed by all the Pilates studios. But when I found West Hollywood Pilates I knew I was home. I loved the one on one approach, and having the whole studio to myself for the hour. It's truly a hidden sanctuary in the middle of the city where I can focus on my body and exactly what it needs. A hidden gem not to be missed.

I'd been doing Pilates for months thinking, I should love this, but I don't. The group classes felt chaotic. Music blasting, instructor yelling into a mic, and I never really understood what I was supposed to be doing on the machine. I left feeling more confused than accomplished. West Hollywood Pilates was a completely different world. The private, one on one classical Pilates approach is exactly what I didn't know I needed. Everything is explained clearly, the environment is calm, and for the first time I actually understand my body and how to work with it. I leave every session feeling empowered and accomplished. The peace of mind alone is worth every penny, the results are just the bonus. If group Pilates has never clicked for you, private Pilates in West Hollywood might be exactly what you've been looking for.

I've been to a lot of Pilates studios. West Hollywood Pilates is in a league of its own. The space is stunning, serene, thoughtfully designed, with equipment that matches the quality of the instruction. From the moment you walk in, everything signals that this place takes the work seriously. Studying classical Pilates with Yonatan, I never feel like just another client. Every session is built around where my body actually is that day. I feel genuinely held and cared for and that makes all the difference. The best classical Pilates studio I've ever been in. Easily.

Before Pilates, I honestly thought certain things were just part of aging, like feeling more tired, having aches and pains, losing strength, or accepting that there were things my body just couldn't do anymore. What surprised me most is realizing there actually is a solution, and it doesn't come from punishment or extremes. It comes from consistent, enjoyable movement and learning how to properly support your body. Pilates has been truly life-changing for me. It's the first thing I've ever stayed this consistent with because I genuinely look forward to every class. I leave feeling stronger, more energized, more connected to my body, and honestly younger in the way I move and feel. I've noticed my body doing things I didn't think it could do anymore, and it's changed the way I think about aging completely. It's not just about fitness or appearance, it's about quality of life, strength, posture, mobility, and having a strong core that supports your back and your everyday movement. What also makes this place so special is the instructor. Yonatan is incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and truly listens to your body and your individual needs. Every workout feels personalized, supportive, and encouraging no matter your fitness level or experience. Truly grateful for West Hollywood Pilates.

I had a really great session. Yonatan is a next level instructor who challenges you while being fully engaged with where you’re at. The vibe of the room with super high ceilings is inspiring and he’s incredibly knowledgeable about the mind/body nature of breath and movement. Very inspiring.

After my pregnancy I was looking for classical pilates in my neighborhood and found this studio by chance. So glad I did. The work is subtle but powerful, and I feel better in my body every week. My posture is better than ever, and my core strength is back! As a postpartum mom being able to move my body effortlessly is a must, and this practice has really made all the difference.

I always feel seen and supported here. West Hollywood Pilates has helped me reconnect with my body in a way I didn’t expect. Yonatan has not only taught me to connect with my body, but has also encouraged me to develop a loving relationship with it. I’m stronger in my body, more confident in my mind and more resilient in my spirit. Thank you West Hollywood Pilates, you’re so much more than just a Pilates studio.

The moment I walked into West Hollywood Pilates, I stopped in my tracks. The studio is stunning, tranquil, thoughtfully designed, and unlike any fitness space I’d ever been in. I felt at home immediately.
But the real surprise was what studying classical Pilates here did for me. I’m stronger, more flexible, and somehow I feel it in my soul. Every session weaves in breathwork and meditation, so I leave feeling inspired and energized rather than just worked out.
This isn’t your average Pilates studio. West Hollywood Pilates is in a category of its own.

I must say that Jamie and Yonatan’s studio is by far the best place I have worked out for both body and soul. Not only are they warm and compassionate, their knowledge is off the charts. I love it so much I drive 40 miles each way. Literally life changing!!!

From the moment you step into the West Hollywood Pilates, you feel a sense of calm. I have been working with Yonatan for the past 9 months and in that time, my body moves with more ease and much less pain. What I truly love about Yonatan's approach is the whole person focus that begins with the breath. He offers creative, playful sessions that keeps the body and the mind guessing. His approach is inquisitive and kind, empowering you to reach just beyond your limit.

My body has transformed since I began to work with Yonatan. I have been doing Pilates for 16 years, and have only worked with classical Pilates instructors. Yonatan‘s approach is so thoughtful and personalized. I am so glad with my results so far, and really enjoying my continued path on strengthening and flexibility.

I highly recommend West Hollywood Pilates for anyone looking for private sessions. I have been working with Yonatan for the past year. My goals have been to gain muscle, flexibility and strength, all of which I have accomplished. He’s an amazing teacher who puts a great deal of emphasis on proper form and technique. Each session is creatively different from the one before and always super challenging. The studio is extremely clean with the newest Contrology equipment and located in the heart of weho. Parking is always extremely easy and convenient.

Yonatan has a very beautiful approach when teaching Pilates that really resonated with me. As soon as I started working with him I knew that this would be a different experience from any other Pilates instruction I had previous received. His vast knowledge of the body and its systems and his ability to tap into your energy make for a very potent session wether it is more intense one day or more gentle another day, He tailors the class based on what you need at that moment and has a knowingness of where the medicine will be. Very grateful for this training.

I don't think I actually understood the full scope of what Pilates has to offer until starting one-on-one sessions at West Hollywood Pilates.
Right from the first session Yonatan quoted Joseph Pilates' "In 10 sessions you'll feel the difference, in 20 sessions you'll see the difference, and in 30 sessions you'll have a whole new body".
At about a dozen sessions in I'm already feeling more aligned in my body, my posture has changed, I feel stronger and all the minor aches and pains I lived with have dissipated. Yonatan's approach merges breathwork and meditation into the sessions and offers a challenge while respecting the process. I couldn't recommend these sessions enough.

The transformation I've seen in myself since starting with him has been beautiful. He is great for the body, mind, and soul. I am so grateful for him. I'm excited to see where my pilates journey will go!

It’s no secret that I love Pilates, and some of my favorite afternoons end with legs-in-straps. Discover the exclusive allure of a private Pilates sanctuary nestled steps from Melrose. This isn’t just a workout; it’s a bespoke fitness experience, carefully designed for the discerning Pilates lover seeking a bespoke private session. Craving a serious toning session? Check. Want a restorative session to lengthen and release? Check again.
Local tip: pair it with a sound healing or Reiki session (or both!) for a serious reset from a stressful week. Oh wait, is that just me?

Caitlin Neal
I’ve been doing Pilates here for a little bit over a year, and my body has completely transformed. I finally have the posture I’ve always wanted, core strength and coordination through the roof, someone recently complemented me on my six pack!!!I’ve never been athletic or even played any sports. In fact, I dealt with horrible asthma for most of my life and thought I would never be able to exercise or be physically fit in the way I am now. Yonatan has been the most amazing coach and has helped me grow in ways I didn’t know were possible. He is always introducing new things and changing up our routine, which keeps me engaged and looking forward to moving. I never thought I’d actually enjoy working out but now I’ll never stop.
Doing Pilates with him is more than just a workout. I feel like it’s somatic therapy. I moved through some really hard stuff this year and the consistency of my Pilates practice has helped me sustain all of the ups and downs life has thrown on my way. The best part is all of the things I can do now with grace and ease. Sure, the results in the mirror are great, but my day-to-day life and relationship to my body are so much better and that’s what counts the most.

This was my second experience with Pilates in general. However, working with Yonatan was a much more profound experience than my first experience at a different studio.
Yonatan made sure to first understand me, my physical limitations, and my needs to physically get where I need to be.
He then explained in detail the exercises and what they would do to help my over physical health and ultimately my over all well being.
It’s now two days later and I feel energized with strong, constant energy , and my normal aches and pains as a drummer have lessened.
Highly recommended!!

I had done Pilates a number of times before this session - I’m not super experienced in it but also not a complete novice. I loved it! Yonatan is clearly passionate about Pilates, he’s very knowledgeable about the history and development of this exercise modality and I felt like I understood his directions with a great degree of depth because of all the context he was giving me about the movements we were practicing. This was a private session, the facility was impeccable and very comfortable/inviting/warm, there’s lots of natural light and it felt good to be there. The Pilates gear was all top notch, worked great and seemed very new. Amazing experience, I highly recommend!

I’ve been doing pilates with Yonatan for almost a year now and I am truly transformed. I went in with little knowledge of pilates, only knowing I needed to find something to help improve my fitness and get me back on track to a healthier lifestyle. He uniquely crafts each class and intuitively picks up on what my body needs. I’ve grown in strength mentally and physically, and look forward to my sessions as the best way to start my week.

I tried a number of different Pilates locations before landing at West Hollywood Pilates. It’s remarkably hard to find a great classical teacher in Los Angeles—but Yonatan is just that. He’s knowledgeable, intuitive, and somehow both rigorous and gentle. Highly recommend. Fabulous music, too.
