Beautiful facility and amazing knowledgeable instructors. I started Pilates at Asheville Pilates over fours years ago after breaking my humerus. Best decision I've ever made. I have full mobility back in my arm and a year later they helped with my recovery after a hip replacement. Im so much stronger than before. Ive been going twice per week and plan to continue for the rest of my days. It really has changed my life.
Thanks Maureen & Megan!!

I have been working with Lynn on Gyrontonic since about 2020 as infrequent as once every 3 weeks, and have been benefited tremendously this experience. Lynn is extreme caring and knowledgeable. And she continues to re-educate herself to keep up with the frontier.
My body has been stronger, range of motion got expanded to a point I couldn’t believe, and most importantly I am no longer suffering
the lower back pain that I had always had since a teenager, and my knee pain was very much reduced since my knee started to bother me a few years ago. I cannot thank enough of Lynn and the studio. We also work on Pilates occasionally when needed.

I am in my mid 70's, have been receiving chiropractic since I was 4, body work since I was in my early 20's. Moved to Asheville in Dec 2020 and my low back went out in March of 2021 while picking up a golf tee during a round of golf. Dr.'s X-rays showed bulging disc's between L3&L4 and L4&L5. A local body worker recommended Asheville Pilates. Unfortunately Maureen had no availability. I worked with another Pilates studio in South Asheville with some success. Sometime in 2022 I was able to connect with Megan and began regular flexibility and strength training. She is a life saver. I am now not only playing some of my best golf, but walking to play, for the first time in over 20 years. Where was she 20 years ago. Will forever be indebted to Megan, her knowledge, creative, patience and commitment to my health. Maureen, you did good, when you brought Megan on board. My wife and I love your place and all the health benefits.

I have worked with Megan over the years at Asheville Pilates and have had amazing results. I first started going because I had daily back pain that was interfering with my work, exercise, and time with my children. I loved to run but was convinced I'd never be able to run again because of my back pain. Megan got me on the path to healing and after a few months I was able to start running again. I've continued to work with her because she's extremely knowledgeable and intuitive, and she has helped me become so much stronger.

I have had sessions with several instructors here, all excellent, but mostly with Kathleen. The weekly sessions have done wonders for my core strength and overall fitness and have helped me regularly engage in other strength training, cardiac exercise and hiking without the pain and limitations that I previously experienced on occasion. As a 70+ year old, that is incredibly valuable and allows me to stay consistently engaged in a varied exercise program. Kathleen pushes hard, but not too hard and helps me make consistent progress. As someone who never took Pilates classes before, I was surprised at how quickly Kathleen taught me proper form (though she is always changing the program) and moved me to a point where I feel that I am progressing every week. I have no doubt there are a lot of very good Pilates instructors in Asheville, but I don't think one could do better as a student than with Kathleen. And she always has interesting stories (especially if you like dogs) to entertain and keep things light.

I have been working with Leslie for a little over 1 1/2 years now. I am an elder and know that my body isn't as supple as it was once. Leslie is patient and explains what her goal for me that session is as we work toward it. She always ends each session on a positive note. The studio is beautiful and the staff is very friendly. Maureen has created a beautiful, safe, and welcoming space.

In the last 5 years Megan has helped my back issues immensely, helping me avoid back surgery! Maureen and she both have incredible knowledge of how the body works and how to strengthen it, in spite of whatever issues we are facing. I was hoping to just maintain, and now am much stronger than when I began with them.

Been going here for a couple of years. Kathleen is my main trainer, but at various times I've had substitutes. The studio is awesome. Fantastic zen vibe. Everyone is extremely friendly, knowledgable and capable. They can work with or around any kind of physical difficulties. They understand physical therapy as well as pilates. Many are also familiar with other exercise modalities. As with all things, you get what you put into it. If you put in the time and effort, these people will definitely get you a better body -- and probably bring you a dose of happiness too!

I have been so impressed with Megan at Asheville Pilates over the past year of taking Pilates with her. She has an outstanding knowledge of anatomy and biomechanics. Her programming is thoughtful and progressive. Her coaching is amazing and I feel so much stronger in my Pilates practice since working with her.

I have been studying Pilates for about 10 years and was nervous about finding a studio when I moved to Asheville last year. I’m so glad I found Asheville Pilates! I currently see Megan who was trained at the Kane School (one of the top Pilates training schools). She is so good at identifying where one needs work and coming up with exercises to address it. My balance took a big hit when I broke my fifth metatarsal, and under her tutelage it has improved substantially. She also recommended that I try Gyrotonic with Leslie. Whereas Pilates is primarily linear, Gyrotonic moves the body in 3D. Both practices emphasize core strength, which is so important as one gets older. Leslie has helped me become more flexible in my spine. Maureen, the owner, has found stellar instructors. I couldn’t be happier with my practice at Asheville Pilates.

I have been receiving private coaching from Lynn on Gyrotonic Method for close to four years now. It has been an incredibly beneficial journey in improving my movement, body awareness, and overall well-being. Lynn is incredibly knowledgeable, able to customize her coaching to my particular needs. Challenging and empathetic at the same time. Highly recommended!

I am so grateful to be a student at Asheville Pilates. I had not taken Pilates reformer classes in over 10 years. Maureen, Kathleen and Meghan have helped me to improve dramatically on my form in the past few months. They instruct me on the proper breathing and mechanical techniques. The studio is beautifully decorated…soft lighting and impeccable cleanliness add to a pleasant environment!

Asheville Pilates is a well-equipped, welcoming and comfortable pilates studio. I have been going there for more than 2.5 years. Maureen and Megan are knowledgeable and caring trainers. With Megan's focused care, my spine healed well from a herniated disc injury. Body and core strengthened.

At 83 years old I believe that Maureen's gyrotonics work has enabled me to move and feel like a 50 year old. I had taken pilates for 10 years before, but I have never felt as painfree and flexible as I have doing gyrotonics. She is the best fitness teacher I have ever had and I have either danced or exercised all of my adult life. Maureen and gyrotonics is a gift I give myself weekly and it has paid off.

I have been taking private lessons with Maureen for almost two years and it has changed my life! It has greatly improved my quality of life by reducing pain caused by Psoriatic Arthritis, increased my strength and mobility, improved my posture, and put me back in communication with my body and breath in a way that I desperately needed. Maureen is an incredible teacher, she seems to perfectly balance meeting me where I am with gently pushing me to meet my edge. She sees everything the body is doing and holds my feet to the fire, but does it with such kindness and the highest intentions for me. She is patient, supportive, and always ready with a different cue or a modification when I need it.

As big bodied person with chronic illness, it can be really hard to find a place for yourself in the world of fitness. I am so thankful to have found mine at Asheville Pilates! <3

What a wonderful studio! I spent 6 weeks doing private lessons here while staying in AVL and experienced tremendous benefits. Owner Maureen is a gifted instructor with a wealth of knowledge and experience, and as a result, she has a watchful eye, a data bank of clear and effective cues and a supportive healing presence that facilitates the entire process. She is also skilled at working with injuries and can offer a highly effective therapeutic approach when it is needed. Highly recommend!

I absolutely loved working with Maureen at Asheville Pilates. During my time working with her she brought a completely new take to my pilates practice. I felt in the time I was working with her my posture and strength improved dramatically. I had some schedule changes and she was very understanding. I highly recommend her studio to anyone looking for a great pilates teacher in the Asheville NC area.

I am an older client. I have ADDED bone mass and able to stop medication treatment for osteoporosis because of regular Pilates workouts.(Which I will continue!) The owner & staff are outstanding. Their workouts are very individualized. It is a space you will love to go to.

I have been working with Maureen for about three years and I have seen great improvement in my strength, flexibility, balance and posture. I eagerly look forward to my weekly individual session at Asheville Pilates. Maureen assesses each person and begins working with what that body presents to her. Her warm and caring approach enhances the whole experience. We use all of the equipment and several styles of exercise in a nice mix to keep things interesting and challenging. I especially like the results from the Gyrotonic modality. The gentle yet effective movement stretches and strengthens muscles and tendons and I have seen remarkable changes in the flexibility of my spine.
Breathing is a big part of the routine and that alone improves my clarity of thinking. The studio is a very inviting and comfortable place.
Maureen is also a masterful reflexology practitioner! For emotional calm and physical relaxation, she has no equal!

I have been a steady client of Asheville Pilates since I moved to Asheville a decade ago. As a professional dancer I began training in Pilates in NY in 1975 with Romana Kryzanowska and over the years it has always helped me recover from injuries. When doctors told me I would be in a wheelchair in nine years due to a rare rheumatoid arthritis I began working with Maureen Sher, and Hope Wolfe. The studio offers the highest quality of Pilates with a special mix of healing energy. If you are looking for a special studio that really knows what they are doing try Asheville Pilates.

I was new in town and found a Pilates studio not too far from my house. It just wasn’t a good fit for me. When I walked into Asheville Pilates, I knew I was home. That was almost three years ago. I immediately felt comfortable in my surroundings and soon learned how incredibly knowledgeable and deeply caring Maureen Sher (owner) is with her clients.
In addition to private lessons, I have been fortunate to participate in Pilate’s classes with Hope Wolfe, an enthusiastic and talented instructor. I have had some physical challenges this year, and am ever so grateful for the extra support I have received from both Maureen and Hope, and for their expertise with both Pilates and Gyro kinesis. It has made such a big difference in my life.
