The Corner Studio

The G.I.T Fit classes are amazing! Classes are limited in size which allows the trainers to a) call you by your name which is always nice, b) focus on everyone, give positive feedback or correct postures when needed. All teachers I’ve tried so far are great and very dedicated to reinvent the class each time by incorporating new props or different exercices.
Expect a lot of sweat from this class but also a lot of fun.

I’ve taken GIT FIT a few times and I LOVE these classes. Instructors keep it rigorous while ensuring proper form. I always leave with knowledge of new routines I can practice on my own during gym time. Guaranteed fun and shortness of breath!

Corner Studio is hands down my favorite workout studio in the city. It’s a small low key studio with a lot of equipments to play with. I’ve been going there multiple times a week to take Jason’s class. He is a great instructor who focuses on getting your forms right and pays attention to everyone in his class. It’s been a great month coming there so far and I’m looking forward to keep coming back. Support local small gyms!

Love the GIT FIT classes!!! They are engaging, fun and different every time. I was sore for days after my first class too.
All the instructors are helpful, motivating and very nice. They actually correct you if you are doing a move wrong, but in a supportive way.
Also, Allison and Nicole are the best!

I found out about The Corner Studio through Groupon 2 years ago and I still go back… that’s how good Liz & team are! The GIT FIT classes are phenomenal, I have recommended them to a few friends who have also enjoyed them.
The exercises are different every time so I’m never bored and always get my butt kicked (in a good way.) Liz is super attentive and makes sure that you do all the moves correctly. I highly recommend GIT FIT if you are looking for a bootcamp style workout.

Tried out the GIT FIT classes through fitmob promotional offer.
Most engaging classes that really work out my core and other parts. The instructors — Liz and Jason have been very imaginative and thoughtful in designing the workouts. They really know what they are doing — how they are pushing the body and how they are balancing the exercises, working out one part while another rests.
As we do exercises, switch, shift from one group and equipment to another one is always in the mode– C’mon 10 seconds more and done! Before you know it the class is done and you have accomplished a lot. I have always greatly enjoyed the crowd as well. As you pass the ball, or do burpees while the other skips there is a sense of being in it together.
I like the wooden, glossy gym machines that I can see when I go into the group class studio and it makes me feel like an old school boxer or something. In the group class as we pant, jump, bend, squat I also get the feeling of being in a vintage fitness setup.
There is a Starbucks next to the Corner Studio, and when I leave the GIT FIT class I look at the muffins in the glass case and laugh at them.

I love the Get Fit classes and the teachers all great! Classes are challenging but they give directions for modification based on your fitness level/​injuries/​etc. I’ve been going to classes almost every week for the last couple years. The Get Fit classes keep me motivated to stay fit (so I can keep up!) and the environment is always welcoming. The Pilates mat and TRX classes are also really good. This will continue to be my go to place for my regular workouts that I always look forward to!

I have been going to BURN on Valencia for years and decided to try out the Corner Studio’s GetFit classes to mix it up a little. The studio itself is beautiful, the clients and instructors alike are very friendly and I really liked the energy of the group exercise classes. It’s very different from BURN in that you wear your tennis shoes, you do a lap or two outside around the block together and you are all over the room doing different exercises versus doing them all together following the instructor.
Pilates Mat classes — 5 stars
GETFIT — 4 stars
The reason why I took off a star is because after being so used to BURN I just can’t get over the fact that during the Get Fit classes we do the majority of the hands and knees floor work on the hard floor at the Corner Studio versus a soft mat. Since everyone in the class wears their tennis shoes, and we are constantly moving around the studio versus having just one spot during the class, we are constantly putting our hands and bodies all over places where everyone else has just been running around with dirty shoes /​on people’s drops of sweat. When we do interval mat work we get the mats out but often share them with everyone else in the class so there’s a lot of other people’s sweat that gets on you. The studio itself though is very clean!

The Corner Studio is a place for people who are serious about taking care of themselves and about reaching a deeper level of fit. By this I mean, everyone I have met here is interested in building a practice of lifelong fitness, not just a quick-​fix slim down or building muscle.
I have been doing private training with Nicole for about a year and I love it. It is almost unbelievable how much Nicole is committed to her clients and their well-​being. She spends a great deal of her time outside our sessions thinking about exercises that will help me be my best, strongest, safest self. I started seeing Nicole because I wanted to be more fit, but I also know many people who started seeing her after a serious injury, all of whom have long since moved past the pain and into strength.
I’ve also taken Pilates with Liz, TRX with Sophia, and GIT Fit with both Liz and Nicole. They are all amazing. The trainers at TCS are all about safe and effective workouts. You won’t do a million reps of something, you’ll do 10 perfect reps in a slow and controlled way, and feel a much deeper burn.
My favorite thing about TCS is the community– I feel surrounded by people who support and care for each other. After class, I frequently find myself talking to people I’ve only just met about anything and everything– there is a shared feeling of interest, respect, and intention among the individuals at TCS and it’s fundamental to everything about the studio.
Since I started going to The Corner Studio, I’ve become stronger, developed confidence in my body and its ability, and made some really wonderful friends. TCS is a bright, friendly place that will really kick your BUTT and make you love every second of it!

I have been going to the Corner Studio now for years and I love it. I take a one on one Pilates class from Nicole and she is wonderful. She is encouraging, precise in her instructions and prompts, keeps the exercises fresh, knows when to push you and when to ease off, and lastly she has a great sense of humor (she laughs at my jokes.)
I have also taken their Git Fit classes and they are intense!

Love their classes! Bought their Groupon promotion 5 Pilates classes for $ 24! Unfortunately, I probably won’t be able to afford to keep going after the Groupon runs out!

The Corner Studio is awesome! I’ve been going to Git Fit classes and worked with a trainer since the beginning of the year, and I love it. Super cute studio with nice, experienced instructors who work me hard but don’t leave me ready to lay down in a heap for the rest of my day. I have seen great results, and the time I spend there flies. I haven’t tried the pilates classes yet, but I have that on my list — I’ve heard enough people rave about them. I really cannot recommend this place enough!

I have this weird guilt thing where if I write a really bad review for a place, I need to follow it up with a really good review for a different place. I just finished skewering Café Sophie, so I immediately felt the need to write something glowing, and my first thought was The Corner Studio.
I started going to TCS a few months ago, after I «graduated» from physical therapy, and my PT recommended pilates to maintain my lower back health. I stumbled upon TCS while visiting the Starbucks adjacent to it, saw that they offered pilates mat at a convenient time, and decided to check it out.
I was instantly hooked. My pilates teacher, Jodie, is insane. I mean that in the best possible way. I could barely move my arms after my first class with her, but I haven’t stopped going — probably because 1) I am a masochist, and 2) it works — my arms are noticeably more toned, and I feel stronger and more flexible. The other pilates instructors I’ve had there, Nicole and Sophia, have also been excellent. I still love going to Jodie’s class though because she definitely makes me work the hardest, and she plays great music.
After a few weeks of pilates, I started to get curious about another class they offer called GIT FIT — one of those classes was right after my pilates class, and after sneaking a peek on a few occasions, decided it looked simultaneously torturous and awesome, kind of like gym class on crack mixed with military boot camp. My inner masochist needed to try it ASAP.
I’ve been going to GIT FIT now twice a week for the past month or two. I’ve only had class with Liz and Ali, and they are both awesome beyonds words — the class is capped, so there is a ton of individualized attention, and for all the times I hate life while killing my abs in plank or «taking a break» by running around the block, I have to say, I never feel better than after one of those classes.
In sum, all of the instructors are awesome, the space is the perfect size and really clean, they have a lot of great equipment and classes, and everyone is very supportive of one another. I’ll see you there.
Oh, and there may still be a living social deal for the pilates and GIT FIT/​TRX classes — so be sure to check that out!

Great studio. Awesome instructors. I have only taken the group fitness classes and they have all been great. It takes a special type of teacher to be able to lead a full class and still make every student feel like they are getting individual attention. I am so sorry to knock off a star here, but recently it has become increasingly difficult to get into the weekend mat class. It all started with a groupon that was run. I used to have no problem registering late or sometimes just showing up without registerting. Now I have to register far in advanced and often do not get a spot in the class. I realize this speaks to how great the instructor is, I just really wish they would add another class on the weekends to meet the demands of both the new and returning customers.

Love this place!
I’ve been working out here for years and years and wanted to update my review based on the Git Fit classes.
Git Fit RULES!
No matter where you’re at as far as fitness, Git Fit can work for you. The classes can be super hard for someone in great shape or you can dial it back what you’re doing if you aren’t there yet.
The best part is that the gals that run the classes are also all Pilates and Gyro instructors. They focus on form and technique way more than in a Cross Fit gym (not knocking Cross Fit). I’ve done Git Fit for YEARS and I’ve never been hurt which is amazing because I’m getting old and push myself. The emphasis on good form is what separate the class from anything else I’ve done.
Hats off girls, you’re killing it!

There is a friendly, fun, and supportive community here. After sweating and going through (sometimes) a lot of pain together, you can’t help but feel closer to your fellow GIT FITers. Working out is made enjoyable and the hour just flies by.
LIZ is really sweet. She is extremely supportive & remembers names. She comes around to correct form as necessary, which I def. appreciate.
ALLISON is pretty awesome too. She’s super friendly and easy to talk to, and she pushes people to their limits. They’re both REALLY great!
Liz’s Saturday morning class had only 6 people so we were able to use the TRX (which totally left me in pain the next day) and a lot more equipment. Her cardio circuit was fun too.
Alli’s weekday 7pm class was cool because we did HIIT on the hills outside (I love being outdoors so brownie points!). However, I didn’t feel as challenged by the strength training exercises.
The only area that I’d recommend improvement on is scheduling. They have one GIT FIT class at 7pm and for someone who gets off at 6pm or and sometimes later, that is not possible [add an early morning class or a later class please!!]. Also, I think it would be extremely beneficial if the class was extended to 1.5 hours. For $ 18/​class (I think), it doesn’t seem worth it to spend 50 minutes or less doing actual cardio and strength training. Especially since I felt that too much time was wasted moving outdoors and/​or setting up equipment.

I’m no Adonis. I don’t work out for fun. I’ve never had a «runner’s high.» Yet I’ve been going to the Git Fit classes here every week or two for two years now. There aren’t many businesses that engender that kind of loyalty in me, but The Corner Studio has somehow become one of them.
I started classes in the wake of months of physical therapy following a bike accident and broken clavicle. Youth and a quick bike ride to work were no longer holding my body together: I was hurting. But in three or four months of regular classes I had a brand new body. Or at least it felt that way: I felt better, I looked better… and I had to move up a suit size to accomodate my new muscles.
The Corner Studio is also a community: compared to the tiny, cramped, Burn on on Valencia, here you have room to spread out and few enough faces you’ll quickly remember them. I may never be a fitness enthusiast, but I’m glad to have workout buddies who provide the enthusiasm I lack. The small classes mean the instructors can and do provide individual attention to make sure your form is always improving.
Like with any business, there are caveats. They don’t have many classes, so you have to plan around their schedule. While my body does feel much better than when I arrived, I never lost any weight there. And each instructor has a different style, so you’ll have to try a few classes to find your favorites.
But over all, The Corner Studio has done the impossible: given me a regular workout plan I can stick to. And one pleasant enough I hope to be attending for years to come.

Julia who used to be at Core Pilates on 17^th is here! Yes! She is THE BEST. Knows her stuff without ever making you feel like an idiot. Don’t be surprised if you find yourself in fits of laughter with her too. Personable, and quirky in the best way possible.

I think I have a mild crush on GIT FIT at the Corner Studio. Maybe the masochist in me likes being told what to do by these awesome instructors, and I definitely like the pain… and I wish I could go everyday.
I took my 4^th class today, and I did BOY push-​ups. That’s an improvement!

I’ve seen this place for a few years now and have always thought about trying it out. So — I signed up online recently and checked out their pilates class. And… boy did i get a work out! The instructor– Jodie was great and the other members were all so polite and helpful. I worked out muscles that I didn’t even know existed! It was great and of course I was in «good pain» for a few days after. I’ll definitely go back for more!
Great place, easy parking, nice staff, nice members, and clean.
