Testimonials

"I just wanted to say: Thank you AYPC!!!! I used to be one of those people who always give up after just a month or two at a new gym or fitness studio, but the friendly atmosphere and instructors at AYPC definitely helped me find the motivation I was missing to keep going!!!! There are so many fun classes and all of the instructors are great, always going above and beyond to help everyone achieve their fitness goals. I would definitely recommend AYPC to all of my friends or anyone looking for a new fitness studio!!

I have been a faithful member of Auburn Yoga and Pilates since it began nearly seven years ago. AYPC provides a comfortable, non-judgmental welcoming atmosphere in which to exercise. You can choose from Power or Slow Flow Yoga; Spin classes; Pilates or any of the numerous workshops offered. There is something for everyone and if you are an exercise fanatic like myself you might just enjoy all of the above. Over the years I have formed friendships with many of the students and instructors. I tend to think of it as my home away from home. So stop into AYPC and check it out. It's great for stress reduction. Body, mind and spirit it's got it all. A great stress reducer in this crazy world. I highly recommend it.
