I wanted a legit Pilates experience while in Dallas for work and was able to do 3 privates at Kiva. The studio is beautiful and welcoming, Cynthia may be one of the most talented instructors I’ve worked with in over 15 years of practicing Pilates. I highly recommend this studio and Cynthia!

This place has been a game changer for me. I started with Kiva in October 2024. My initial goal was to build strength. I’m 40, it’s not as easy anymore. Kiva helped me focus on exactly that in a way I never anticipated. I’ve really learned to connect my mind to my body. As a mom of 2 - it has been absolutely refreshing to refocus my brain for those few hours every week. I’m so much stronger than I’ve been in years. The shape of my body has changed - I’ve dropped several pants sizes. The focus of core strength being the catalyst. My mind is clearer and my fatigue has improved. I genuinely feel better on a day to day basis and am in better shape than I was pre babies. Thank you Kiva ladies for breathing life back into this once tired mom. This has been the best self care I’ve ever given myself.

After a recent bilateral mastectomy and reconstruction, I was searching for a healing space to regain my strength and health—and I found it at Kiva! From my first conversation with Janine about whether the studio would be a good fit, to my first session with Taylor, I discovered a place filled with care, support, and encouragement. Training with Janine, Taylor, and Hannah—my "trifecta"—has made me not only physically stronger but also more confident in stepping into the next chapter of my life. I am deeply grateful to Janine and her amazing team for everything they’ve done!

KIVA Pilates has been THE perfect place for me! Janine, the owner, has developed a beautiful studio and created a very warm and welcoming atmosphere. Janine is a master teacher and the other teachers I have worked with in private sessions are all caring, observant and very knowledgeable. At 77 years old I came to KIVA in October 2024 with very little Pilates experience and a very painful lower back. Over the months, I feel that I’m building strength and awareness and I certainly have much less back pain. As I said, KIVA has been perfect for me!

My experience at Kiva has been beyond transformative. The owner, Janine, is so welcoming and such a positive and pleasant presence in the studio. Sessions with Taylor Curtis are the highlight of my week. She is encouraging and fun and makes you want to push past any perceived limitations. I have grown tremendously working with her. I truly feel better than I’ve ever felt every time I leave a session with Taylor. The women at Kiva are so supportive at any skill level; I’m shocked at how comfortable they make you feel. I cannot recommend them enough. They also have incredible parking, which is a huge bonus for a Dallas studio.

I have gone to nearly every pilates studio in Dallas over the past 10 years, Kiva has the BEST instructors. They take the time to be precise on movements and explain exactly what muscles you should be engaging which is critical for classic pilates.

I highly recommend this studio for both beginners and advanced students as I believe form is the most important part of pilates practice. Not to mention the studio is absolutely STUNNING. Do your body a favor and skip the "power pilates" studios that have 10+ reformers in each class. At Kiva you will receive advice that is personalized to your body and posture. This is now the only pilates studio in Dallas I go to.

After sampling all the various “Pilates” studios that Dallas has to offer, I am thrilled to have found this gem. Kiva is true classical Pilates, and they set a high bar! Whether it’s group classes or private lessons (I’ve been LOVING my weeklies with Hannah), the level of attention and expertise of each instructor is so evident.

I have done Pilates regularly for 12+ years but scared to try a traditional studio like this. I’m so glad I finally did because I learned I haven’t been Using my core all these years or benefitting my body like I am now. I can tell a big difference after just 2 months. If you like a hands on instructor that adjusts and corrects, this place is for you. I also appreciate how it has improved my posture and created an overall awareness of how I move. The staff is well trained and professional. The studio location and atmosphere is my second favorite part of training at Kiva. Can’t recommend it enough.

I made the switch to classical Pilates last April and I couldn’t be happier that I chose Kiva. Janine was so kind and welcoming. Aley is a wonderful instructor as well. The instructors are very knowledgeable and good at meeting you where you are. Also, the studio is absolutely stunning so, of course, that is a plus as well.

The KIVA Pilates community is great. I've been coming for over a year. The classes and instructors are top notch. As a runner, I often neglect other parts of my fitness. The instructors at KIVA have helped me to strengthen and improve my overall fitness. And the location can't be beat - right off the Katy Trail.

This place is amazing! After going to the studio consistently for a few months, I can see and feel significant changes in my body. This is the only workout I have ever found myself wanting to come back to week after week.

Janine and the other instructors truly take the time to work with their clients as individuals, especially in a group class. In the world of crazy, trendy workouts, Kiva is an amazing place to come and work with kind, intentional people. Pilates can be an intimidating environment sometimes, but Kiva is the place to start, even if you have no experience. This is so rare to find in an instructor, much less a whole studio!

Please check them out! I am so thankful for my experience.

In this beautiful Pilates studio located on the Katy Trail I've found my happy place! I went from someone who had tried a handful of Pilates mat classes years ago to now seeing the changes in my health and fitness that true classical Pilates can provide. In a few short months, I've seen improvements in my balance, strength, endurance and energy level through individual instruction and my lower back issues that used to chronically bother me have decreased to the degree where it's hardly noticeable. Although I have a long way to go, and the work remains challenging, I have do doubt that Kiva Pilates is the best investment I have made for my physical fitness in a long time! However, none of this would be the case if it wasn't for Janine and Aley. As the owner of Kiva Pilates, Janine made me feel welcomed on day one, despite my newness to classical Pilates and the feelings of awkwardness I had using the various pieces of equipment. Her kind and supportive nature set the tone for the studio, and she truly cares about her clients and her instructors. After an initial two sessions with Janine, I started working with Aley and there are just not enough words to describe what an outstanding Pilates instructor she is. She has the expertise to adjust your body position in order to safely and correctly execute the challenging moves while also providing the motivation and pushing you need as the exercises become increasingly challenging or when you want to give up. It is obvious now from working with her these last several months that she is genuinely invested in helping her clients improve., and truly cares about your health and well being. Most importantly, Aley makes it fun even when it's hard! Even though I have only had individual sessions with either Janine or Aley, it appears that the entire team shares the same philosophy in their approach, whether in individual or the class, to provide the best classical Pilates experience possible. If you even have halfway considered pilates in the past, run, don't walk, to Kiva Pilates, they are the absolute best!!

I recently joined KIVA as someone who hadn’t worked out in over a decade, and I can confidently say it has been one of the best decisions of my life. They understood my concerns about getting back into fitness and were incredibly supportive.

Aley is phenomenal! Not only is she an expert in Classical Pilates, but she has a remarkable ability to tailor our sessions to my fitness level (which is non-existent!). She took the time to understand my personal goals and limitations, ensuring I felt comfortable and confident during every session. Her guidance has been gentle yet motivating, pushing me just the right amount to help me rediscover my strength and flexibility.

In just a few weeks, I’ve noticed a significant improvement in my energy levels, posture, and overall well-being. I never thought I’d enjoy working out again, but thanks to KIVA, I’m actually looking forward to each class.

I love the small class format at Kiva! Especially compared to some "trendier" pilates studios with 15-20 people, my Kiva instructor was very intentional with her instructions and gave feedback to everyone. We had only 6 people in our class. No music, no amplified microphone, just calm, smooth, slow, controlled movements that left me feeling the burn in a really nice way at the end of the class. Beginner-friendly! Free parking is available on the ground floor.

The best pilates in Dallas! I am so glad to have found Kiva. I started coming through ClassPass. I quickly knew that Kiva was what I had been looking for and wanted to get serious about my pilates practice so I joined Kiva as a member. Membership opened up more class times and a variety of class types.

Kiva is fantastic if you're looking for a classical pilates studio that focuses heavily on cueing and alignment. You're not going to pump and rush through a workout here. Movement is focused and intentional. Janine is truly an expert and takes great pride in ensuring that classes are safe and aligned with the pilates method. I could not be more thrilled with my Kiva experience so far and look forward to growing more in my practice with Janine and the rest of the Kiva team!

I’ve been taking private sessions and group classes here for the last 3 months and the experience has been amazing! This is my first time trying Pilates and I am officially obsessed. The studio is beautiful and every instructor I’ve taken a session or class with is fantastic. There’s so much personal attention, and each instructor has helped me learn how to continue to improve my form. I truly look forward to every class and love being able to mix it up between the reformer classes, tower classes, and mat classes. I walk out of each session at Kiva feeling energized and like my body just got a big hug!

I found this amazing studio while pregnant and looking for a prenatal class where there was little chance of injury and to improve my labor. This prenatal class here is amazing! Highly recommend!

Then I took some private classes postnatal starting 6 weeks postpartum with the studio owner Janine who is very knowledgeable with all things Pilates, and she helped me focus on areas that needed the most attention.

Now I am over a year postpartum and attending all of the regular classes when I can. I love the different equipment options and the strong focus on full body work and slow movements rather than fast pace with potential injury from poor posture or technique.

If you want a true Pilates experience with an awesome staff, try Kiva! Just be sure you get the class BEFORE class starts because they will lock the door right on time with no exceptions.

This studio is THE inspiration for finding my joy in movement.

I would like to share my latest discovery after being an active member at this studio for over a year:

I have decided to step up in Pilates art of movement and sign up for private sessions instead of going only to group classes.
Like most of us, I had the desire to improve my body and certain areas that had been bothering me for a while, and I needed guidance on how to personalize certain movements according to my body to improve my posture and reduce the chance of injury.

It is the most technical Pilates studio in all of Dallas: the instructor’s knowledge is heads and shoulders above anyone else’s and all my concerns were addressed and solved with ease.

Yes, it is an investment, but towards your health and a better understanding of your own body alignment. The knowledge I gained during the private sessions is with me during group classes and I could not be happier with the results.

I am forever grateful and am always anticipating my next class.

I had never taken a pilates class prior to my experience at KIVA. I was nervous that I would be inexperienced or unable to keep up, but from the first moment I stepped in the studio, the instructors were so friendly and made me feel very welcome. During my first three classes, they made sure to explain the various techniques to me and gave me individualized attention so that I had the opportunity to improve. I have since purchased a membership and am in love with pilates and KIVA. I drive 45 minutes to go to this studio and won't go anywhere else. I also think the management is exceptional. Janine always says hello when you walk in the door and has made KIVA a wonderful place to learn and study pilates. If your new to pilates, I recomend you give KIVA a try!

I've tried all the different studios (Solidcore, Session, Studio6, ect.,) in Dallas and KIVA is the one true classical pilates studio I have found that really talks the talk and walks the walk.
I never leave feeling injured or frustrated with my body; I always leave feeling better than before, and the teachers provide corrections, adjustments, and the knowledge to make sure your workout is safe for YOUR body and strength level.
KIVA is what you imagine a pilates studio to be, and they provide the most true and traditional pilates I have found in Dallas. Having taken classes in NYC, Colorado, Florida, and Texas, and KIVA wins my vote for best studio. This studio is phenomenal (the new space is gorgeous), the teachers are kind, and owner Janine is hands on and always willing to answer questions regarding classical pilates. The first time I came I told my friends it felt like a massage or like I got my spine adjusted. I always refer friends to KIVA.

Brick and mortar Kiva Pilates is aesthetically pleasing and sanctuary clean. Inside there is no blaring music from the reformer, cadillac, or springs rooms. Instead I hear laughter, instruction, and students with teachers working hard and enjoying themselves.
I look forward to attending three times a week, and it has changed my shape for the better. My instructor, LeAnna, can read my temperament and movement as I walk into the studio. If she feels I’m not up for a strenuous session, she’ll come up with a more suitable plan to match my demeanor. No two sessions are the same, and with consistency, I’ve gained strength and confidence.
When I find myself slipping into bad alignment, I intentionally find my Kiva Pilates posture. It makes me want to improve myself by exercising, eating right, and following through with my commitments.
And the calorie burn is much more than I expected.

There’s never a day I walk out of class feeling under accomplished. Every single instructor challenges me to do the best I can (and one more inch!) so I feel like I’m constantly growing stronger. If you’re curious and haven’t done Pilates before, give Kiva a try. The atmosphere welcomes people from all walks and experience levels.

I cannot speak more highly of Kiva Pilates. I started doing pilates to get into shape, and fell in love with the deep workout you get. Im not going to lie, I was a novice, and very intimidated upon going to my first reformer class. The staff (and Janine) made me so comfortable, made sure I understood every move we were doing, and how to do it properly. Pilates is hard, and I wasn't able to do every move right away, but I keep the effort up knowing one day it would connect. 10 months later, you'd swear I have been doing pilates for years. Someone once told me that in 10 pilates classes you will start to see a difference in your body. In 20 pilates classes your friends and family will notice a difference in your body. And in 30 classes you will have a pilates body. My body is completely different as a result of doing pilates 3 times a week consistently. I have had a reduction in body fat by 44%, and gained 30% muscle. I look more lean and toned and my body genuinely feels good. I give all the credit to Kiva for changing my body for the better. I will be a pilates student for life! Thank you Janine and team at Kiva Pilates!! You're the best in Dallas!!

A review for this place is long overdue given that I believe this is one of the very best pilates studios in town! I have been a fan of this studio since day one, which was 1.5 years ago. The instructors are very knowledgeable, friendly, passionate, and gifted in teaching. Group classes feel intimate and personal despite not being a private. Instructors make sure each person is not just going through the motions of the exercise but take time to correct and adjust form. The gym is clean, well maintained, and inviting to newcomers as well.

Given current situations with the pandemic, I know many are hesitant to attend the gym again, which is understandable. However, as someone who attends their studio regularly since it has opened, I have to say I feel very safe when attending the classes. If you are still not comfortable, I would highly recommend private sessions! As an OB/Gyn physician, I have seen many of my pregnant patients benefit from taking pilates throughout their pregnancy and these private sessions have been a game changer for them during stressful times! Thank you KIVA pilates and staff for all that you do!

I got the 3month unlimited special at Kiva Pilates and I have been taking reformer class 5 to 6 times a week. It's been about 2month and my lower back pain is almost gone. I sit down all day at work and I used to have lower back pain pretty often. I can feel that my core got a lot stronger. I think that helped with my back pain. Thank you, Janine and Meghan!
They are very knowledgeable, encouraging and welcoming!
I highly recommend this studio to everyone who is interested in Pilates.

This is such a beautiful studio with a very welcoming environment. I had never done pilates before coming to this class but I am now hooked. It was an awesome but very challenging workout. Highly recommend to anyone considering giving this place a try :)

For all you mommas to be out there, get yourself some prenatal sessions with Janine! I was able to get two sessions with her when I was visiting while 33 weeks pregnant. I was having issues with my pelvis and pain under my left rib due to the little one. Janine had great modifications and stretches that I was pain free for an entire day! So, I returned two days later :). My background is in aerial silks (I was still inverting in the air at 20 weeks.... just to give you an idea) and I got a good workout from her.

The studio is bright, clean, and airy. The equipment is of very good quality that you don't see at other studios.

I've done lots of prenatal workouts from yoga, aerial yoga, aerial barre, etc... and have found that Janine at Kiva provides the best bang for your buck. I promise you won't regret it.

Both instructors Jeanine and Meagan are known in Dallas pilates community for their devotion to the work and their clients. You will learn pilates with them rapidly, you will be taught the pilates in its purest (and most efficient) form. If you think you can benefit from pilates learn from them. With such solid basis you will be able to apply pilates in your individual daily workouts.

The space is gorgeous, and the instructors are so skilled, encouraging and inclusive. Learning new movements on the apparatuses is an exciting challenge, and it’s the best Pilates workout I’ve ever gotten. Co-owners Meagan and Janine will help you achieve goals that you thought were impossible!

I know the owners Janine and Meagan personally and speak for their superior knowledge and skill of the classical Pilates method, and their execution of preserving that quality in their tailored workouts. The space is refreshing, elegant, and gender neutral. The best perk of all their specialized equipment is the best on the market. You will fall in love with Pilates all over again.
