So lovely place! The trainers are great! I enjoy the energy there and very fun workout. I went to the special class named Candle Light Flow and absolutely loved it.

I had this realization about my workouts at Btone today, and I figured this would be an amazing testimonial for the business. I signed up for the $99 unlimited promotion, and by the end, I attended 7 classes.Shortly after my last class, I participated in a bike riding event. It was my first bike ride of the season and first major ride in over 5 years. Before the bike event, the coordinator suggested that we don't use the event as our first ride of the season, which made sense. But what did I do? Well, I will tell you, I didn't prepare or train for the event. It was 22 miles, not a competitive ride, but it was 22 miles of riding.After the event, in the evening, I thought for sure that I would be sore from all the riding, but the worse thing that happened was that I ended up with a sunburn. I woke up the next day, maybe a little dehydrated which was to be expected, but my muscles felt great; no saddle soreness or even back pain which I noticed during riding.As the week went on, I realized that even though I didn't prepare for the ride by riding, I did prepare for the ride by working out at Btone. For context, I'm 50 and the only exercise I was doing for the past 4 months or so, besides my recent Btone workouts, was walking. Even though it was for a short period of time, the Btone workouts gave me the core strength to prepare me for the bike ride.Btone has a friendly approachable staff and community. By my 5th class, I started to really notice I was walking taller by default, and I had muscle tone show up in my arms.Needless to say, I am now a member. Btone is challenging and the perfect workout for any age. The instructors do a great job at offering modifications and support when needed. I'm so happy to have discovered Btone and love how it is so close to home.

I went to my first class this morning with Brittany and she was great! Brittany's instruction made it easier for me to follow along as a beginner with only a little familiarity with the class and the poses. If you're coming for the first time you'll need to have some grip socks, I was able to borrow a pair from a friend but they also sell them there. I loved the equipment and the movements that we did had me exercising muscles that I never do when I go to the gym on my own. I left the class feeling very accomplished and toned! Everyone there was super friendly and welcoming to a new comer. If you're a little hesitant about doing this for the first time on Saturdays they have a beginner class where they go through the motions very slowly. Check out their special for new comers, get your grip socks and go get toned!!

The studio is nice but the classes are just okay. Prices are very high for this studio and more than average pilates studios. Yet the classes are only 45 minutes long and not very high energy. It's not really worth the high prices. Maybe if classes were at least 55 minutes it might be a good value. I will probably find a different pilates studio with lower prices and longer classes.

I absolutely loved this workout! I bought a three class pass for a mere $30. I found the class to be challenging yet doable. I agree that you are able to set the degree of difficulty with the guidance of the instructor. I am usually someone who works out with heavier weights and I found that this class hit muscles I haven't used in a very long time. I can understand the previous review of feeling the class was too challenging if you were just getting back into a fitness regiment. If that is the case, I would recommend letting the instructor know at the start of the class so they can be mindful around giving modifications. All in all I would highly recommend!

I have been going to Btone for a few years now, both the Waltham and Lexington locations. I stopped during the height of the pandemic but just recently returned...pregnant! I took a class this weekend with Becky and I can't say enough about her! It was my first class with her and she was awesome! She coached everyone through each move and all the transitions were nice and smooth! Also all COVID-19 precautions are being taken seriously, the machines are very spaced out with plastic barriers between each one!

I love Btone! The instructors are genuinely nice people. They come around and make sure you're doing each exercise correctly. The classes are only 45 minutes long, but you leave sweating and sore. You don’t stay sore for just one day, but sore for 3 days! That’s how you know you got a good work out! Thursday morning 6AMs with Demi, definitely wake you up!

What a gem in Waltham! The studio is stylish and inviting with friendly staff who remember your name. It took me a couple classes to get comfortable with the machine and understand basic moves. The instructors do a great job explaining the movements and offering modifications when I asked them. I’m really enjoying the challenging workouts which always have a fun playlist.

This is the best pilates/barre studio I’ve been to in Boston. The workouts are challenging but fruitful (after 6 weeks of going 1-2x/week i’m beginning to see small changes in my body). Classes are small which I love! Studio is aesthetically pleasing and very clean. The instructors are great (I especially love Demi and Kasey). Something else I appreciate about the studio is their willingness to modify exercises. I’m currently in PT for neck & shoulder issues. The workouts don’t include a ton of modifications so you need to ask or self adjust but I’ve appreciated the way the instructors have responses.

Btone is what I’ve been looking for for years! I have been going for a few months now and really do notice improvements. Not just in the way I look but the way I feel. I feel stronger and more flexible. The classes are run by great motivators who also give tips on any modifications needed. The times of the classes work for my schedule and by signing up beforehand keeps me committed.

I've spent my whole adult life trying to find a fitness routine that worked for me. I've tried personal training, streaming work outs, yoga, etc. etc. and nothing ever stuck. As soon as I took my first class at Btone I knew this was going to be different. The classes are definitely challenging and there's a learning curve to the machines but the instructors are so helpful and supportive. This location is super convenient with easy parking. I highly recommend it!

I took a Btone class on Christmas Eve with Demi and it was AWESOME! Exactly what I needed, I haven't been to Btone in a while and haven't been working out either...I was nervous - but Demi was so friendly, encouraging and supportive I was not as intimidated as class started. She played a fun holiday-themed music set and kept us moving! It was a great re-entry into the class and I'm hopeful to start up again regularly, such an efficient class that I just have to show up for - and having the class scheduled in advance keeps me committed to the exercise! Happy to have this in my neighborhood and looking forward to more workouts! Highly recommend!

Love the workout! All of the instructors are really great at making sure you get the most out of every single class. They make sure your form is correct both verbally and hands on which is so important for an exercise like this. Every single workout is challenging so you feel your muscles shake and work throughout the entire class. I absolutely love this place!

If you're thinking about trying Btone, just go for it! I have been a long-time Barre goer and was nervous to try out this type of workout, with a reformer-type machine, but it's amazing. The teachers, especially Suzanne, are so helpful and patient, the studio is beautiful and welcoming, and the workout is killer - it's 45 minutes but it goes by in a flash! I'm so happy to have a studio in my area, and I will definitely be going often.

I joined Btone after some health concerns to help me feel strong again, both mentally and physically, and it has changed me for the better. I have gained confidence in myself since my first class and I look forward to signing up each week. The instructors are top notch and the studio is beautiful!
