Beyond Fit Pilates, in Grayhawk of North Scottsdale, provides a unique, intimate environment ideal for centering and breath. Private and semi-private sessions are truly private, with personal instruction and attention to every detail for all students. The Beyond Fit studio is warm with natural light but cool with good air movement, including the option of opening the doors when the Arizona weather becomes too beautiful to completely stay inside.
Pilates will provide you with a unique, whole-body and mind experience. It will dramatically improve your strength, tone, flexibility, balance, and posture, creating a long, lean, strong body and a quiet, more focused mind. For the experienced, looking for the next challenge, the hurting, hoping to find a way to move that is safe and beneficial, and for the Pilates-curious, come in for a free session.
Pilates is a progressive exercise method that strengthens while lengthening muscles. The beginner and intermediate work are gentle yet extremely effective. The advanced work is challenging and requires a great degree of shoulder and core strength, balance, flexibility, and experience. Pilates is a great complement to your already existing fitness routine or it can BE your fitness routine.

I fit into the category of having special needs. I used to play competitive inter-club tennis. I recently had two successful knee replacements and then a coincidental diagnosis of NPH (Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus) which explained why I couldn’t balance when I walk. I will have brain shunt surgery soon. All the while, I have been actively trying to recover. Fortunately, Cindy is certified to work with ‘special populations’ and I experienced that expertise first hand. She has a lot of fitness ideas and was able to adapt them to my ability. Every session was a good total body challenge; I

I’ve been working with Cindy at Beyond Fit Pilates for about a year now and I’ve been very happy!! I always look forward to my sessions. Cindy is encouraging and knowledgeable, and I love how she takes the time to understand my goals and limitations. I have some injuries from a previous athletic career and was having trouble finding a workout that would work for me. I feel much stronger since I’ve begun working with Cindy! I especially like that it’s an intimate environment — I can take the time to work the way I need to in the session. Cindy is always able to offer a recommendation re

I've had my share of personal trainers and pilates instructors over the years and I finally found someone I can stick with and see results. Cindy goes above and beyond to customize your workout to fit your personal goals and to allow you to push yourself. She is knowledgeable about how to work with your injuries to minimize any risk and to reduce further problems. She helps you identify how you can make better nuturition and lifestyle choices and keeps you confident and positive. Her studio is very well equiped and professional while offering a private environment where you can keep your focus

This is Karen DeMoss and I have been going to Cindy for a little over a year now. My physical therapist recommended her after I injured my back lifting my granddaughter. I can honestly say my back is so much stronger now after doing Pilates once a week (more is better!) and she is careful to progress me at my own pace without inducing any further injury. She tailors her workout each week to my skill level and it is always something different and fun. When I am with another person ( a duet) she chooses someone compatible with my ability and is flexible to accomodate changes in my schedule. I really

I wanted to get into amazing shape for my sons upcoming wedding. I was in my mid-50s and needed a really good core work. I always thought I could do it myself and had never hired a trainer. If you’re looking for an amazing, fun workout as well as looking for excellent results you have to check out Beyond Fit Pilates with Cindy Ayres. Cindy is a true professional. Cindy’s patient and fun, upbeat and she works to teach you the basics of a beginner ultimately working towards advanced Pilates. Lovely studio, with a neighborhood vibe, flexible and customizes your work out. You must check out Body

So as a young athlete that grew up in everything from Basketball to Skateboarding, I feel like a 22 year old in a 40+ year old body. Posture has never been that great, flexibility has been poor, it goes on and on.
Anyway, 3 weeks ago I tried my first group pilates class with Cindy and seriously have not felt better in a long time. My flexibility is improving, my range of motion on my previously injured shoulder is improving, and I feel just overall better from the core. Never thought Pilates would be for me, but I was wrong. Highly recommend trying this even if it seems outside of your comfort
