Ashley Smith opened the Trinity Pilates studio last November and people were immediately interested.

"We are building up clients at a slow and steady pace," Smith said. "We get a lot of walk-ins, we are in a great location and people respond really well to the atmosphere and the classes. I couldn't ask for things to go any better"

Besides offering Pilates classes, Smith teaches piloxing, which incorporates dance, boxing and Pilates into a 60-minute workout.

"Piloxing is a nice compliment to the Pilates class," Smith said. "It keeps clients interested and lets them get their cardio workout here. I want to do whatever it takes to give clients the best workout they can get and keep them healthy."

Like most gyms, Trinity Pilates is busiest in morning and afternoons, Smith said.
