I had my first Pilates experience with Ashley! I was recovering from a back injury that had resulted in chronic back pain. Most abdominal work further aggravated my condition. Ashley was able to start me out with a very basic approach on the reformer that eventually lead such an increase in core strength that I am Hooked!!!!!!!! THANKS ASHLEY!!!!!!!!!!!"

I have been a runner and soccer player since childhood, and always thought the best way to stay in shape was running and lifting weights. Since experiencing Pilates and working with Ashley for three years, my core is stronger than ever. I am more flexible and considerably stronger all around. I cross train and do Pilates and have not worked in the weight room in two years. Because Ashley is an athlete and a dancer, she has a unique understanding of a client’s strengths and weaknesses. No matter what your skill level or athletic background, Ashley knows how to work with you to reach and surpass your goals with patience and insight. She is a great Pilates instructor!”

I worked with Ashley before and during my pregnancy. Ashley developed a fabulous prenatal pilates routine that continued to strengthen my core. My abdominals bounced back much quicker after giving birth. She gave such personalized attention, I highly recommend her services!"

As someone who had been trying to find a way to exercise which would not exasperate my neck problems ( I have had 5 cervical disc operations) I found myself taking Pilates from Ashley Peth. From the very beginning she showed an ability to know just how to use the Pilate exercises to strengthen my body but not strain my neck. As time progressed she increased my ability and muscle tone but never pushed me beyond my threshold. I wish she was still in Virginia! She is a beautiful person both in statue and heart. She is a wonderful teacher and became a wonderful friend. I miss her."

If you have the ability to be a Pilates student of Ashley Peth, I am jealous. I deeply miss working with Ashley in Richmond, Virginia. I worked with Ashley for several years before her move to Colorado. The Pilates sessions that I had with Ashley over those few years truly transformed the shape of my body to a slimmer, stronger, and straighter version. It was exciting to see results. As important, Ashley helped me rehab various parts of my body. As I worked with a physical therapist, I would tell her what our goal was and she always knew ways that we could work that area safely. This work with Ashley hastened all of the rehabilitation issues I had over the years and gave me strength in areas that had been neglected resulting in pain. Then when my daughter had hip surgery and the surgeon did not follow up at all with a recovery, rehab plan, it was Ashley that helped her gain the confidence to use her hip again and to correctly strengthen the muscles again that had been sitting dormant. When it was time for my daughter to go off to college, it was Ashley that took the initiative to find a skilled teacher that was qualified and capable of continuing what they had started. Working with Ashley was always a complete pleasure and productive. We will always be grateful for the opportunity we had to work with someone that professional, not to mention fun!"

"Working with Ashley truly transformed the way I view exercise. Following a knee and neck injury I thought my days of getting a good work out were over. Ashley showed me key strengthening exercises that not only got me back on track but have prevented me from having a relapse. Now I am stronger than ever and can't imagine a week without Pilates. Ashley's ability to listen to her client's needs and structure a work out around them is invaluable. And her enthusiasm is so addictive there is never a dull moment during her sessions."
