We had the good fortune of connecting with Ashley Pilkenton and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Ashley, maybe we can start at the very start – the idea – how did you come up with the idea for your business?
When HOUSE PILATES® was established, our primary aim was to introduce classical Pilates practices to the community. We developed the HOUSE PILATES® method to deliver genuine Pilates experiences to our clients. By preserving and teaching the original exercise system devised by Joseph Pilates, we strive to prioritize our clients’ needs in their wellness journey.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
At HOUSE PILATES® we want clients to have the best experience possible. Every instructor is handpicked and comprehensively certified with 500+ hours of teaching experience to ensure our clients receive the proper one-on-one attention needed. This allows the body access to every muscle, resulting in a long, lean and health body. Our expertise spans many specialties, furthering our ability to care for a wide range of clients, whether interested in a more classical or contemporary approach. Additionally, we create effective, and specialized programs in the following areas: prenatal, postnatal, scoliosis, osteoporosis, post-surgical, post-injury, injury prevention, and sports specific conditioning – to name a few. The HOUSE PILATES® method follows a classical approach that customizes exercises and personalized sequences to accommodate and challenge each body: Progressions are given, modifications are made, movements are systematically broken down, built upon, and perfected.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
Houston is an incredibly lively city, boasting a unique blend of culture, history, cuisine, and entertainment! One of my family’s favorite weekend destinations is Hermann Park. As members of the Houston Zoo, my children adore taking a ride on the delightful mini train that operates in the park.
When I’m seeking refuge from the summer heat, I love visiting the Museum of Fine Arts and the Houston Museum of Natural Science. Additionally, the farmers market scene in Houston is fantastic! Our family has enjoyed many mornings at the Memorial Villages Farmers Market, where we indulge in a breakfast taco, shop for local produce, and let the kids have fun at the park.
Houston is home to some of the finest restaurants around! No matter what you’re craving, you’re sure to discover an amazing eatery to satisfy your appetite!
