Pilates Anytime Workouts Ratings and Reviews

Endless classes

I’ve been a member of Pilates Anytime for years now! I workout at home, so having endless classes to choose from is a must! The instructors are top notch from all over the world and all have their own unique style. I like the different styles of classes and levels. I can always find a class that suits my level/energy on that particular day. There’s new classes every week, so it NEVER gets boring! I feel like a kid again on my birthday whenever I log on and see a new class that I know I’m going to love! Lastly, ( I could go on for days), I love how Pilates feels as I’m getting older. I’ve been practicing for almost 20 years now. I’ll be 50 soon, but I truly believe that Pilates has helped to keep me strong. Thank you to everyone at Pilates Anytime!!❤️

Inexplicably missing in features

The content within the app is great. A huge number of lessons for students and teachers at every level, delivered clearly and in good video by excellent instructors.

That part is really good and well worth the subscription cost.

The app itself, however, for some inexplicable reason, has bugs and is missing critical features that make it frustrating to use.

For starters, videos that have been watched in full should be automatically marked with an “eye” icon, so the user can easily identify those videos they have watched. This worked for a while, and it is not working anymore.

It is not possible to write notes in the app - why not!?? It is a lot of hassle to have to go to the web app, find the class, and write notes there, when I have it open right there in the app!

It is also not possible to modify the custom playlists in the app. Another incredibly shortsighted omission.
I very much doubt that most users lug their computer around to watch the videos in their computer, when they can simply open the app and use their phone or tablet to watch the class. So doesn’t it make more sense to be able to rate, comment, keep track of, and categorize the lessons by playlist in the app?
What am I missing here?
Not having the features that are available in the web application within the mobile app is just sloppy, lazy programming.

Thank you so much for the thoughtful feedback! I'm so sorry that the viewed eyeballs are not working correctly for you. I have just tested and they are working generally, so I hope we can solve this issue for you. Please reach out to support@pilatesanytime.com and we'd be more than happy to figure out how to get that feature working correctly for you. We understand that there are some features only available on the website and it is our goal to continue adding functionality to the iOS app. However, I want to make sure you are aware that you can rate, and comment on classes in the app. You can also add classes to your Favorites and Queue playlists. Additionally, you can also access your custom playlists (but not yet add videos to those playlists) in the app.

Best Pilates App

I am a studio owner and have used Pilates Anytime for 10+ years. It has been an invaluable resource to support not only my teaching, but provides continued education, and enhances my personal workouts. With access to respected educators from around the world via workshops and classes, as well as their own regular team of dynamic, innovative, and friendly instructors…Pilates Anytime gives me all I need to feel successful and remain knowledgeable about movement, anatomy, and of course Pilates.

It’s worth every penny!

Thank you so much for this wonderful review. We are so happy to hear you love our offerings!

Too difficult to filter given price

I live how many videos there are. I love that I can input my preferences and have the app recommend videos for me. I do t live
That I can’t exclude videos that are completely irrelevant to me. For instance, after inputting all preferences, the first recommendation I am given is part 3 of a 4 part series on a Pilates Birth, geared towards pregnant women. I’m 43 so I’m largely past childbearing age. Plus I’M A MAN, and I can’t exclude videos that are intended for a specific subset of women.

It would also be lovely if on the AppleTv version of the app i could configure multiple users, as my wife and I both would like to easily use the app, switching between our preferences without having to reconfigure each time.

Love it

I’ve been with Pilates Anytime for a few years now and it’s really an important part of my life. The teachers are excellent. Overall I would like to see more diverse bodies represented among the instructors. They have made some improvements in this area in the past year and I hope they can increase those efforts even more vigorously moving forward. It makes a big difference in my experience. I highly recommend this platform.

Thank you for this awesome review!

Hands down, my favorite fitness app!

I’m a Pilates teacher and I love this app not only for my own workouts but to learn, there are so many tutorials and workshop style classes to choose from. The teachers bring a wide range of experience and expertise. It’s amazing. Thank you!! I may be biased because I’m a Pilates teacher but this is hands down the best fitness app out there with excellent instructors, fun classes and a ton of variety!

Lots of choices

Wow. Lots to choose from, and the content is fairly well organized. The app itself is a bit clunky, though. Once you set up what you’d like in your cue or favorites, it would be great to be able to arrange the order. This would help me, anyway, as a beginner, to give instructors or classes a try, then set them up in the best order for me rather than scrolling through every time. Love the classes and variety (my first week) so far, don’t really like the app itself.

Hi! I'm sorry this feature isn't available on our app, but I just wanted to make sure you knew that you *can* re-order your playlists from our website. Any app customer also has access via our website.

Great content, frustrating app

The teachers and classes are fabulous. I wish the classes were more easily searchable. They have very generic titles, and I can't even read the entire class description. When watching a video, it often locks up and won't play if I try to skip around even though when I drag to where I want to go there is a thumbnail with picture. There reeeeeally needs to be a 30 second or 15 second rewind button for missed cues or fast transitions.
That being said, it is amazing to be able to learn from so many world class instructors.

Thank you for the feedback! I wanted to let you know that I hope we've addressed some of the issues that were causing frustration. We have stopped using generic titles and also added a text field to make it easier to find classes. We have also improved the quality of our video playback and are using a new, faster network. Additionally, we have added a 15 second rewind button. A lot of these features were added thanks to the suggestions from our customers, so thank you again!

Update: You can now additionally read the full class descriptions!

Best and most diverse teachers and formats!

As a professional moving away from a big city, (away from lots of great teachers to zero other teachers) I subscribed to PA to keep a strong personal practice. That was NINE YEARS ago and I’ve continued my subscription. The content is always fresh, the teachers are amazing and the diversity can appeal to any one. Pilates IS FOR EVERY BODY and there is something for everybody here

Great workouts, so so on the app.

I really like the workouts, there are a lot of options on type, equipment, body parts, level, time. The search feature is terrible, it’s hard to narrow down, there are no filters to help sort. There’s also no place for the challenges, if you start one, it’s a long process to get to the next class each day. I wish the whole challenge would just go to the queue.
