I’ve been going to Aspire for 10 months at a friends and PTs recommendation after an extreme flare of chronic pain after which I could barely walk or sit for over 20-30 min at a time. After working with Tonya, Wren, Jarrett and Karma I’ve swam in the Bay, surfed once more and hiked at elevation for over an hour and even been able to travel internationally again. All of this has been deeply affordable on a teacher salary too and I feel instructed with care and like I know the intricacies of my body better than ever especially when it comes to spotting signs of pain sooner and responding as needed. Cannot thank y’all enough!

Tonya combines a background in professional dance and extensive Pilates training with her passion and knowledge of the human body to help people regain function and excel. I have confidently referred a variety of patients, from seniors to Olympic athletes, for her guidance. Whether you are looking to recover from an injury, prevent injury, or improve sport performance, I highly recommend Aspire Pilates and Tonya Amos. Adam Benjamin, DC

I found Aspire Pilates Center when I was frustrated with my progress in yoga and working on my own. I am ... older ... and things weren't moving the way they once did, and it was causing problems for me. I spoke with Tonya I was so excited to have my initial evaluation and I was not disappointed. I found Pilates to be so very precise, I could tell right away that I was moving my body the way it was meant to move. Tonya and Irene are both excellent teachers and they pay close attention to each person's needs. The small classes make a big difference. After the introductory course, I have taken Circuit, Reformer and Release classes. Each has been an eye-opening experience, learning so much about my body and capabilities. I can't say enough about Aspire and Tonya!
