The Pilates Barn

Amazing experience! We love this studio - the location, atmosphere, and especially the instructors. My wife works with Heather and could not be any happier.

I have been training with Melissa for 20 years, both at Vie and the Pilates Barn. In my early years, I did strength training and complained when it got too hard. In my older years, I did Pilates training and complained about that because it wasn’t hard enough. My experience with Melissa has been absolutely terrible wonderful as has been the Pilates Barn. All the trainers at the Pilates Barn are wonderful to be with.This is not an A.I. generated endorsement. I am real, my name is Stephen Reading!

I've worked with Melissa weekly for a few years. She is an outstanding instructor. She is always fine tuning our sessions, with increasing complexity and challenge. She also watches my movements very carefully, constantly making minor adjustments to my position and posture, for maximum benefit to core strengthening.Finally, Melissa is extraordinarily personable. She is always upbeat and positive about our sessions, a true pleasure to work with!

I've mostly just done personal training through The Pilates Barn (started back in the Vie days!), but I've been impressed since day 1 with how caring, communicative, and enthusiastic the entire Pilates Barn crew is! My virtual personal training sessions have helped me completely changed my health, my outlook on diet and nutrition, and my confidence! I look forward to training twice a week for the foreseeable future! :)

I absolutely loved my session with Michelle. She knows so much and offered really helpful corrections the entire time. I signed on to work with her twice a week and I'm really looking forward to it!

Beautiful loft setting with ample natural light and warm contemporary design. A calming studio in which to practice and contemplate pilates on a variety of apparatuses. Heather's Tower and Reformer classes are challenging and centering. She is always upbeat, inspiring and friendly. For any ability level.

Absolutely love this place. First, they're clearly the classical Pilates experts in the area. Exceptionally knowledgeable instructors with significant experience. Second, the equipment is top notch Gratz and they have multiple of everything; very well maintained. Third, the space is spectacular. In the historic Godfrey building smack in the middle of the vibrant buzz of Kerrytown Markets. Alone on the top floor with expansive views of the west side, beautiful brick walls, floor-to-ceiling windows with gobs of natural light. There's just no beating this experience for core strengthening and flexibility improvement.

I started Pilates at The Pilates Barn under the guidance of Heather. I began with a few private lessons, which was a great way to acclimate to the program. The private lessons were highly beneficial to my sore back, and these lessons gave me confidence that Pilates was a good fit for me. I am now enrolled in my second series of group (tower) classes, which I am taking with Heather. Again, excellent communication, and excellent instincts with each student. Classes are small enough so that each student is provided with ample attention. Can’t say enough positive about my amazing experience here!

Have taken classes with Angela and she’s amazing! Very clear with instruction and so helpful to correct making it a great workout!
