Cisco Pilates
We recommend that everyone take at least one private lesson before attending mat class. If you are experienced and don't have major injuries, just let us know and we can fit you in to the class without having a private lesson first. We carry the highest quality Pilates equipment available from Gratz.

We have a Reformer, Tower/Wall Unit, Ladder Barrel, Wunda Chair, Spine Corrector, as well as a Foot Corrector and Toe Corrector and many small props. Call, text, or email us at 828-407-0133 to get started. We'd love to help you start a private pilates practice that will produce greater levels of fitness, tone, and improve your overall health.

I asked to hold a puppy, and at that moment decided that I needed more puppies in my life. I decided that I wanted to do Pilates with Puppies. For $15, participants take a beginner friendly Pilates class, and AHS supplies the puppies. 100% of tickets sales are donated to AHS. We will continue this awesome fundraiser class about once a month, or when we can secure puppies and the space at AHS.
Some people don't want to leave their home to work out. Maybe it takes too much time between travel time and traffic to fit in a private lesson. Now in the comfort of your own home you can have the motivation of a private instructor! I know what it's like to try to work out at home. Maybe you get a text, you have to deal with the pets, kids, laundry, errands, etc.
Private Pilates lessons are recommended to start your Pilates practice, and are the ultimate workout. Cisco Pilates recommends the "New Client Special" of Buy 3 Privates Get a fourth one Free to start out.

Cisco Pilates carries Gratz equipment: the Pilates Reformer, Tower/Wall unit, Wunda chair, spine corrector, foot corrector, and toe corrector, all equipped with strong springs to provide the best support and resistance needed for your body to develop strength and control.Pilates is exercise. Just like learning a new instrument or language, it will take time for your body to acclimate to this new way of moving.
This class is not a Pilates class, but is a great class that we like to offer as a supplement to Pilates and other workouts for tight and sore people! We teach you how to do a full body foam roller and then use props like tennis balls, dowels, and straps for self-massage and stretching. For the duration of class we stretch deep into your hips, hamstrings, calves, quads, pecs, shoulders, chest, and more.
Sign up below, and you'll get an email once a day with a beginner and an intermediate/advanced video to choose from, and some pro-tips (plus BONUS videos). We offer challenges starting on a few specific dates per year, and automated challenges that start the day after you sign up so you can do them anytime.

I have only been taking private Pilates sessions with Alexis for about two months now but I can definitely see a change in my body and I love it! My abs, thighs, arms, and back all have better definition. I am leaner and stronger already. Thank you!!

Alexis is an amazing instructor and human being. I started working with her over six years ago. She inspired my love of Pilates so much that I decided to become a teacher myself. I still work with Alexis each week and every time I do, I grow as a practitioner of Pilates as well as an instructor. I can honestly say that Alexis is one of the best in the biz and no matter your goals, she can help to get you there. I cannot recommend Cisco Pilates enough.

Pilates with Alexis has been a game changer! After doing yoga for years and then developing low back pain, she has helped me focus in on the weak core muscles I didn't know I was neglecting. I did a series of private sessions with her first, then was able to jump in with group classes. I feel So. Much. Better. She is smart, supportive, caring, fun, and a great teacher!

You HAVE 5 minutes a day - so do this!!! I promise you will be so happy you did!

I have come to know Cisco Pilates not in person but from Alexis' wonderful ab series challenges. I found Cisco and Alexis when a friend posted her challenge on Facebook in the beginning of the new year.

So far, I am on day 36. I just one month, my belt size has gone down 2 sizes. Granted that I have been doing this with very good portion control and other exercise regime but without a doubt, my gains would not have been as powerful without this very non-invasive ab program.

I have taken abs classes

I have been attending Cisco Pilates Mat Class for at least 2 1/2 years. I love it and Alexis is the best! She is a great teacher, giving each student what they need and is very knowledgeable about the body. Her class (and approach) is pressure free and if you miss now and again, there is no guilt! Alexis has a great sense of humor which is nice to have around while doing all of that hard work! I also love that Cisco Pilates offers Ab Challenges and now you can do an Ab Challenge any time! Once you sign up, the challenges come to you daily by email and you do them on our own time. I highly recommend

As a chiropractor in Asheville, I can't recommend Alexis and Cisco Pilates enough. I recommend her deep stretch class to all of my patients and know that they are in good hands with her. She has a a wealth of knowledge about the body and how it should function . I believe she not only helps people gain muscle, strength and flexibility but also knows how to guide them through their pain.

Wow...What an experience!! I have done Cisco's individual instructional one on one Pilates class. And their awesome monthly stretch class for the last year. What an awesome experience!! Alexis is the BOMB very patient and calm.. She remembers my wife's favorite stretches... very important!! She feeds you great local chocolate and a little wine now and again at the stretch class.. I'm very tight .......NO you have no idea....very tight and if I miss the class It's the end of my world for me in my line of work!!

I've been working with Alexis for about 3 years and my body is so happy for it. I've been an athlete my whole life - from tennis to marathons - and I've always had injuries and imbalances in my body. Pilates is like glorified physical therapy and it has stabilized, strengthened, and balanced me out. I also attribute growing a half inch to pilates as we are constantly working on lengthening my spine. Also, Alexis is an amazing instructor who keeps things fun and challenging. She'll push you to your edge without you even realizing until after your session is over and your body feels like jello.

Alexis is an excellent teacher. She is very in tune with your body and is very knowledgeable about the body. She truly cares about her pupils! I had a foot injury that lead to surgery and she really helped me stay fit and heal during the process. She took care to make sure I wasn't doing anything to create stress on my foot. I first started Pilates with her because I needed a low impact exercise, but soon realized that Pilates is a total body workout that makes me feel great all over, from my foot to my back and areas of tension (neck and shoulders). I even find my posture is better now!

I've worked with Alexis now for a little over two months, and I can honestly say that she has helped me get into the best shape of my life.

My posture has improved dramatically and I love my new-found core strength (with ab definition!) - and I owe that in large part to Alexis.

In addition to being a super knowledgeable, supportive and fun trainer, she is an exceptional human being. Kind, smart, funny... I always look forward to my sessions with her.

I'm 43 years old, and I was a complete newbie to Pilates when I started with Alexis. I really didn't "get" what the

Alexis is a wonderful Pilates instructor. I have had several private sessions and I am looking forward to continuing my practice with her.
The studio is pleasant and peaceful and Alexis is very knowledgeable and personable. The sessions always begin with questions about how my body is feeling and where I am having problems, and then we work on problem areas while focusing on a balanced work-out.
Before finding Cisco Pilates, I had very limited pilates experience and was nervous about my first session. Alexis was very reassuring and walked me through everything, making me feel confident and cared
