Some things just go together


Yin and yang, pen and paper, the sun and the moon, North Raleigh and Downtown, Pilates and Yoga. When you find that great combination, you can't wait to talk about it.

We've formed an "alliance" with a couple of like minded studios in the area working together to provide the very best in fitness programs in Raleigh, and the benefit to you is access to the very best in classes and programs. These sister studios are here to build community and serve your fitness and wellness needs. All classes are taught by highly skilled instructors with hundreds to thousands of hours of formal training and experience, which means you will receive the best training in the Raleigh area at the best value.



So many changes in 2011

  • North Raleigh sister studio Smart Body Pilates has recently remodeled and is in the process of adding programs for every type of athlete to their schedule. Come and see the gorgeous studio renovations and learn about the very best in pilates instructor training with BASI Pilates programs (Body Arts and Sciences International).
  • This October, sister studio Studio Hargett Pilates moves to its larger location so you can enjoy tons of free parking, over 600 more square feet of space, and an expanded schedule of group Pilates classes as well as the return of Zumba, NIA, Yoga Pilate Fusion and many more of the programs you love.
  • Blue Lotus Yoga will bring weekly classes to the new Studio Hargett Pilates location later this year.
  • The Ballet Burn will continue to burn you up each week with Margot's challenging and oh-so fun classes.

What does this all mean?

Our alliances mean you can feel comfortable knowing you are in good hands, whether you are a yogi seeking pilates classes, an athlete seeking customized pilates and fitness programs, or just looking for a friendly space to get fit, find stress relief and calm your mind on the mat.

With multiple class formats, blended fitness modalities and small group class settings, you can benefit from the energy of group classes or set your focus on the results gained from private sessions. Although our studios operate separately, we are working together to offer more workshops, classes and programs in an effort to provide you with the perfect program for your needs.


“Building community is the ability to work together toward a common vision. The ability to direct individual accomplishment toward organizational objectives. It is the fuel that allows common people to attain uncommon results.”

Meet our Instructors Pilates has made all the difference in the world in helping me be a successful masters athlete in softball and racquetball at the national level. I'm a 63 year old woman and has successfully recovered from a hip resurface one year ago! I have worked with Aimee Levesque over seven years and extensively during the recovery phase of my hip.  Pilates means core strength and endurance which translates into torque, power, and flexibility in sports. Smart Body Pilates Studio is state of the art and Aimee is a superb instructor and trainer. I look forward to continuing Pilates with Aimee for many sports years to come!
