Private Sessions | Ashburn Core Pilates

Private sessions are where the real transformation happens.

When it's just you and your instructor, every cue, every spring setting, every exercise selection is designed around your body — your goals, your history, your pace. Whether you're brand new to Pilates, working around an injury, or ready to go deeper than a group class allows, a private session is the fastest way to get there.

Are you new? Grab your first Private Session for $75 and text us at 703-570-1156 or email info@ashburncorepilates.com to book!

Why Private Sessions at Ashburn Core

Private sessions are where we really get to know your body — the shoulder that's been nagging you, the core connection that hasn't quite clicked yet, the goal you've been quietly working toward. Your instructor brings their full attention to you for the entire hour, and that changes everything.

Our instructors genuinely love this work. They'll celebrate the moment something finally clicks for you, remember what you struggled with last week, and meet you exactly where you are — every single time. That kind of relationship is hard to put a price on, and it's something we're really proud of here.

Whether private sessions become your whole practice or the foundation that makes your group classes even better, you'll always have a whole studio behind you — a team of instructors, a welcoming community, and a space that feels like yours.

Ashburn Core is an integral part of this community, and private sessions are where some of our most meaningful client relationships have started. We'd love for yours to be one of them.

"I’ve been dealing with chronic health issues which makes exercise difficult. I’ve always loved pilates and finally decided to get back into it. My search led me to Ashburn Core Pilates. I have been doing privates with Danielle and the difference after just a few sessions has been amazing! Not only is Danielle so knowledgeable, but she is super sweet and encouraging. She pushes me beyond what I think I can do and it is so rewarding!! The studio is beautiful, comfortable, and inviting. So grateful for Ashburn Core Pilates!" - Jill R.

Meet the Team You'll Be Working With

Our instructors aren't just certified — they're deeply trained, warm, and genuinely invested in your results. A few highlights:

Danielle (Owner) — BASI Comprehensive certified, with over a decade of teaching experience and a deep belief that Pilates is for every body. She opened Ashburn Core because she wanted a studio that felt welcoming, serious about the work, and genuinely fun to walk into — and that's exactly what she's built.

Karin — Advanced Teacher Training from The Pilates Center in Boulder, nationally certified through the Pilates Method Alliance, plus a background in special education and movement science. She also holds certifications in the Franklin Method, Precision Nutrition, and personal training — meaning she brings a truly whole-person lens to every session. She has a rare ability to meet every body exactly where it is.

Marta — Comprehensive BASI certified, with a background in classical ballet, modern dance, and over a decade in theater. She's trained with some of the most respected names in movement science, which means her understanding of how the body moves goes well beyond a standard certification. Her cuing is precise, her eye is sharp, and her clients tend to have a lot of "OMG, is this how it's supposed to feel?" moments. That's exactly what she's going for.

Jill — Trained in classical technique with "the Elders" — instructors who learned directly from Joseph Pilates — so her foundation is about as classical as it gets. She's also a certified plant-based nutrition coach and PCRM Food for Life Instructor, which means she thinks about the whole picture of your health, not just what happens on the reformer. Clients love her warmth and the way she makes even challenging work feel approachable.

Julie — Classically certified through Romana's Pilates in 2006, with over 30 years in the fitness industry spanning weight lifting, group fitness, personal training, and Pilates. She also holds certifications in personal training and nutrition coaching, which means she brings a genuinely well-rounded perspective to every session. She's worked with every kind of body and every kind of goal — and that experience shows up in every single session.
