👍👍 It's a really great studio. Positive energy, great teachers and fun classes. I especially like the chill vibes of the evening yoga which is both a great work-out and calms me down and gets me ready for bed. The classes are always full quite in advance which was frustrating at first, but now that I'm...

    I just joined and now I’m addicted! I primarily go to the downtown Halifax location and the staff/instructors are always friendly, welcoming and accommodating. It is always a good energy and I always leave feeling energized. The unlimited membership is beyond worth it! They are so reasonable abour cancellation times, reasonable with fees, etc! There is also lots of class times/options available all day. I have only positive things to say and would recommend this place to anyone, I wish I had found it sooner.

    I had never enjoyed working out until I joined RStudio. All the instructors are welcoming and supportive. I have spent the majority of my Pilates classes with Emma, and she is very sweet. Their policies are very reasonable. I work six days a week for pretty long hours, so it's hard to find another studio that has classes before and after standard business hours.

    Started taking classes here for the first time a few weeks ago to try something new, and I am absolutely obsessed. The classes are fun, the instructors are knowledgeable and incredibly motivating and I get a fantastic workout every time- pilates is no joke!! I absolutely plan on continuing classes here for the foreseeable future, and definitely will be checking out the other studios/classes offered.

    Great workouts! Love the variety of class options, there’s something for everyone. All the coaches and wonderful. They help you with your form when needed. I bought the punch pass since I don’t live in the area and I’m always so excited to attend a class when I can. I would definitely have a membership if I lived in Halifax :)

    My favorite R studio! Full on fire with Ashley is fantastic, the studio is great and so good in the summer when it’s just too hot for a “hot-class”.

  • 5/5 Laura M. 1 year ago on Google
    I highly recommend checking out R Studios! There is a huge variety of classes (everything from boxing to Pilates to spin) so there is something for everyone. I like the flexibility of being able to switch up my schedule and try different types of workouts.

    I really enjoy attending yoga classes at RIO Pilates & Yoga Studio, located in the North End of Halifax, N.S. Beautiful studio with ample natural lighting. The instructors are fantastic, compassionate, caring, and are always there to greet you with a smile. One of the best yoga studios I have ever visited! I'll definitely keep coming back. A huge thank you to all the staff at R Studios---you are amazing!

  • 5/5 charlotte c. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely love this studio. It’s the best place to try yoga for the first time, come out of “retirement”, and allows experienced yogis to improve their practice. I enjoy the noon hot pilates and fusion flow classes, and always appreciate a cold towel at the end of class :)

  • 5/5 Glenn Cox Exp R. 1 year ago on Google
    I really enjoy the morning Hot Yoga, the atmosphere is very inviting from the moment you walk in. The instructors are fantastic and makes the session very worth the trip downtown. Parking is very easy in the morning.

  • 5/5 Brooke M. 1 year ago on Google
    I have been loving the boxing classes at Rebel! The energy is great, the workout is phenomenal and the instructors are amazing. 🫶🏻

  • 5/5 Margo M. 1 year ago on Google
    Really loving everything R Studios has to offer. Each instructor has a different style and so much variety. The 20-class pass has really worked for me to get to classes when I am able and not be locked into a membership. Classes do fill up but I often still get in after signing up for the wait list. Cold towels after a hot session… nice touch :)

  • 5/5 Natalia G. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the best studios in the city! I love that it offers a variety of classes all over the Halifax Regional Municipality. I have been going to the Rebel Studio for boxing classes for the past year (every Sunday) and I highly recommend! Instructors are open to questions, suggestions, and always give you different levels of intensity so you feel comfortable during the class :) To add, every location is very clean and neat!

  • 5/5 Patricia Hanias R. 11 months ago on Google
    I did a step class yesterday for the first time in 20 years. It was an incredible intense and fun workout. I felt energized and strong for hours after. The music and instructor were reading motivating . It’s will not be my last class! Love step.

  • 5/5 KK0605 1 year ago on Google
    I’m a newer member to R studios and am very impressed so far! They have a large variety of classes and the instructors are knowledgeable and extremely motivating. The space is bright, airy and relaxed feeling. Guaranteed a great workout!

    I attended a pilates class at the Rio studio in the North End of Halifax and had a great experience. Emma was so sweet and welcoming, she showed me around the studio and told me everything I needed to know to be successful in the class. The class was challenging but fun - perfect for any fitness level.

  • 5/5 Anna M. 8 months ago on Google
    I went to one of Lisa’s Pilates classes and really enjoyed it! She has such lovely energy and gave great pointers to make sure everyone’s form was safe and strong!

  • 5/5 Breanna L. 6 months ago on Google
    Such a welcoming and inviting studio! Awesome instructors, kind members, and good variety of workouts.

  • 5/5 Natalie M. 9 months ago on Google
    As someone who is relatively new to pilates, I was thrilled to join a studio that was welcoming to all skill levels. The class was fun, challenging and I absolutely love the studio on Maynard.

  • 5/5 Matthew L. 7 months ago on Google
    Rio has an amazing variety of classes, including my favourites TRX and Kettlebell. Always a great workout, highly recommend!

  • 5/5 Andrea L. 1 year ago on Google
    I love the spin classes at Rival! I was very well supported on my first visit to figure out shoe sizing and the dimensions for my bike. The instructors are both energizing and encouraging.

  • 5/5 Raeesa L. 5 years ago on Google
    This is the best fitness studio (along with Rogue) in the city! The teachers are incredibly talented and friendly, the community is awesome, the venue is beautiful! It makes working out SO MUCH FUN!

  • 5/5 Suzanne B. 5 years ago on Google
    I am so pleased that I purchased the 2 week trial pass at Rio & Rogue! I have been struggling with back pain since being pregnant/giving birth 6 months ago and no matter how many sessions of physiotherapy, massage therapy or osteopathy I went for, nothing eased the pain. So I decided to take matters into my own hands. I am happy to report that after only a few Pilates classes, I feel stronger, and more importantly, notice a decrease in back pain. The instructors have been so kind and helpful. Making sure that I have modifications if need be, and that I’m doing the exercises correctly, so that I don’t further injure my back. Shout out to Nicola for making me feel so welcome at my first class :) There seems to be a great sense of community among instructors and members, which makes for a very welcoming and accepting environment. I will definitely be continuing my membership! Suzanne Halifax

  • 5/5 Nicole P. 5 years ago on Google
    I’ve attended classes at all 3 R Studios locations (Rio, Rebel and Rogue) and have taken a variety of their classes from mobility and Pilates, to hiit classes and jump rope. Their wide range of classes means there is something for everyone. The instructors are all amazing and encouraging and the R Studios members are all welcoming and friendly. Fantastic instructors, awesome classes, gorgeous spaces, what more can you ask for?

  • 5/5 Brenna M. 5 years ago on Google
    I'm a new member and have tried a few classes at Rio. I was nervous to try something new, but I'm truly loving the experience and cool variety of classes in pilates, barre and yoga. A welcoming community, excellent instructors who help you focus on form and technique and a cool space to workout in.

  • 5/5 Sarah L. 5 years ago on Google
    I really enjoy the variety of classes offered between Rio and Rogue. The studios are clean, easy to access, and airy. All of the instructors I’ve met so far have been friendly and super helpful with lots of tips on how to keep proper form to avoid injury. Highly reccommend!

  • 5/5 Laura M. 5 years ago on Google
    I have been attending the Comminity classes at Rogue and I love them! They seriously kick my butt and challenge me, in the best possible way. I look forward to going back each week, and I love the variety of exercises, and the different styles of each trainer. The cold towels at the end are a nice touch too 👌🏻I can’t wait to try more classes!

  • 5/5 S S. 5 years ago on Google
    It's my first week at Rio and my past routine has been all Barre at studios that really only do Barre. I've enjoyed Barre at Rio, but I'm actually really enjoying the variety of what they offer. There are so many class options and times. Every class is good, but I highly recommended pilates therapeutics for anyone with tightness or reduced mobility in their shoulders.Everyone is very welcoming. I'm happily turning into a regular.

  • 5/5 Faith H. 1 year ago on Google
    Pretty affordable classes and summer membership! You really work up a sweat and the teachers so far have been so sweet even for beginners like me 😊 Veronica was great!!

  • 5/5 Amy M. 5 years ago on Google
    I love everything about this gym. There are so many classes to choose from, class sizes are nice and small, and the instructors are super personable and engaging. Highly recommend giving it a try!

  • 5/5 Kailyn J. 5 years ago on Google
    I've tried a few different classes now and am hooked. The instructors are positive and friendly, the studio is stunning and the music is a nice eclectic mix. Lots of different classes to choose from and a convenient schedule with plenty of options throughout the day. Highly recommend.

  • 5/5 LIZ S. 5 years ago on Google
    Love the variety of classes, timings, and instructors. Everyone is so keen to help out, quick to respond on Instagram through any technical issues, and so inviting when you come in. Can’t get enough of this place and I’m looking forward to many more!

  • 5/5 Elvira T. 5 years ago on Google
    Very inviting space! Wonderful instructors who give great attention to all participants. The variety of classes & time slots give everyone a chance to participate. Total body workouts! Highly recommended.

  • 5/5 Lindsay S. 5 years ago on Google
    The classes I took at Rogue were fantastic. Not only was it an incredible workout but it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. I walked into a very welcoming and supportive environment. Can't wait to continue!

  • 5/5 Carlos Ureta M. 5 years ago on Google
    Wonderful place for indoor workout, many kinds of classes, challenging classes. The music perfect for the fast pace enviroment and instructors the best they always look for you and provide feedback when there is room for improvement.

  • 5/5 Jill 1 year ago on Google
    I'm a newer member who switched gyms recently to push myself and I'm so glad I chose R Studios. With 4 (soon to be 5) gyms across the HRM that offer a variety of options from yoga, strength, spin, and more, it keeps me motivated and makes exercise fun and challenging (in the best way). As someone who viewed myself as a forever-novice and often did the minimum without pushing myself, R Studios is helping me level up.

  • 5/5 kd10117 1 year ago on Google
    Clean and welcoming environment! Staff and instructors are very encouraging and helpful. Classes are designed in a way that allows you to make modifications if needed and therefore suitable for various athletic abilities. Multiple studios and class options allow you to diversify and change your scenery!

  • 5/5 Liah C. 1 year ago on Google
    I have been a member with Rstudios for about a month now, and am soo happy with everything! I originally joined for their hot Pilates/yoga, but have really been enjoying the variety of classes such as spin at Ride and Box and Burn at Rebel. The instructors, environment, and workouts are amazing, and they truly care about clients. Would recommend to anyone for a great time and (challenging) workout!!

I especially like the chill vibes of the evening yoga which is both a great work-out and calms me down and gets me ready for bed. The classes are always full quite in advance which was frustrating at first, but now that I'm starting to figure out how to navigate the waitlist system, it's much better. Definitely enjoying using this studio. :)

    I love the classes here! The energy is always amazing. The instructors (especially Nicola) give amazing corrections and push you every class without ever feeling pressured into going beyond your comfort zone (ie into the bad kind of pain). Can’t wait to take more classes!

  • 1/5 Sarah D. 3 months ago on Google • 1 review New
    Really wanted to enjoy this studio as we are new to the area and saw they are opening a big studio near us, but unfortunately had two bad experiences in classes at the Pilates and Spin studios. The worst of it being the instructor at spin talking with two members after and the conversation being quite negative and making fun of an individual who was struggling in class.

  • 5/5 Kirsty G. 2 months ago on Google • 2 reviews New
    R Studios has something for everyone! With a wide range of classes and difficulty levels it’s a great way to get moving without having to think too much about it.

  • 5/5 Holly M. 3 months ago on Google • 1 review New
    The studio is very welcoming for any level. I enjoy all the instructors and participating in the classes.

😐 Best and worst gym all in one. Great little gym in a convenient location. The workouts are already designed for you, so no need to figure out what to do or how many reps.
