I stopped in for a class and was thrilled with everything. I take a contemporary style of Pilates in my hometown and was thinking I found the right place when I read about Base Moves online. When I arrived (early, but apparently that’s not needed) I found the studio and the area for everything pre/post workout. One of the co-owners and teachers Sara was there and very friendly. She has more than 30 years of teaching Pilates and I felt very confident in taking her class.

The class itself is amazing. I took something I think called Shape in which many different moves, some advanced, were combined to deliver a real total body workout in under 50 minutes! Sara explained moves really well and it was clearly a thoughtful routine to achieve a whole circuit for the body.

If I come back to Durham and near this studio again, I’d come back in a heartbeat.

Amazing studio with the best vibes! Base has engaging, informed, and charismatic instructors who make every class challenging and fun. I came for a Base 101 class and never left!

Regardless of who you take a class with, you know it’s going to be a great workout. All three instructors deliver an opportunity for intentional movement while providing a great workout. Love the place and highly recommend!

Base Moves is THE place for Pilates in Durham and the Triangle. I’ve been taking classes at Base for just over a year and I have never felt this strong and confident in what my body can do. I was always intimidated to take group fitness classes, but the women at Base have built a safe and supportive community where all skill levels are welcome. The classes are challenging but FUN with great music, motivating instructors, and a true sense of community among class regulars. Classes only have 8 reformers so you receive individualized feedback on your form and personalized encouragement and cheerleading! I highly recommend Stella’s P.E. class, Sarah’s jump board class, and both Stella and Sarah’s mat classes. Taking these classes 2-3 times a week has completely transformed my fitness level and is extremely reasonably priced given their monthly express packages. I’m proud to support this local, woman-owned business over the corporate studios inundating the market!!!
