EHF Pilates

EHF Pilates is a great studio and one of the few located out of the village for those who live farther south in Carlsbad. Kelly is a great instructor who really focuses on proper technique to get you quick results. I’m trying to get in shape after having a baby and Kelly’s been fantastic in teaching me exercises to help strengthen my core. I highly recommend EHF Pilates and Kelly!

I’ve been taking Pilates classes with EHF Pilates for 7 years now and would recommend this studio to beginners and advanced practitioners, alike. The general atmosphere/​energy is always positive and upbeat, the owner, Natalie is an expert in her field, especially with injuries and the kind of encouragement it takes to be serious about this kind of exercise.
Kelly, the newest member of the studio’s teaching staff is a refreshing addition. She is not only knowledgeable about the body and the Pilates system, but she is supportive and has great taste in music!!! Her expertise is evident and I look forward to working with her for a long time.
I’ve never stuck with any exercise routine as long as I’ve stayed with EHF Pilates. Best investment in my health that I have ever made!

I absolutely love EHF Pilates! I have been doing pilates for a year now and it has been really good for me. I have some neck/​back issues and the Restoration and Lengthen classes have really helped me. Natalie is the owner and the instructor. She is down to earth, very knowledgeable, and her classes are a lot of fun. She is aware of my neck/​back issues so during the class she always lets me know of another exercise I can do while others do something else or just checks to see how I am holding up in the class. You can tell she genuinely cares for each and one of her clients. I also appreciate when she corrects you to show you how to do the exercise better because she doesn’t make you feel stupid or singles you out. She is just so patient and easy going. Her classes are not intimidating at all. I always feel very comfortable and relaxed in her classes. I know what it is like to try something new for the first time and you feel lost because everyone else has more experience but with Natalie’s classes you do not feel like that at all. Everyone is encouraged to do what is best for his/​her own body and she always gives different options. If you are looking for a local pilates studio or are new to pilates I highly recommend that you give EHF a try. You will not regret it.

If you’re looking for the top pilates studio in North County, you’ve come to the right place. I am a professional cyclist, and a former swimmer as well. I used to have constant lower back pain, as well as tight calves and hip flexors. I started doing Pilates about a year ago, and I was blown away by the amount of strength and flexibility I gained in just a few months. Not only was I able to get through the long cycling season injury and pain free, but I had my best season ever, winning 10 races.
I recently moved to North County San Diego, and had to find a new Pilates studio. I called EHF Pilates, and they offered me a free tryout class. I loved the calming atmosphere of the studio, and when I saw how affordable the classes were, I was sold. EHF Pilates has everything you could possibly need. They offer a wide range of classes which focus on the many different needs of their clients. No matter your age, fitness level, or budget, you’ll find something that works for you here.
The owner, Natalie, is an absolutely amazing instructor. You can tell from the moment you meet her how passionate she is about Pilates. She has an amazing teaching style, and is extremely knowledgeable about fitness and anatomy. Whether it be a group class or a private, she focuses on every client and strives to understand each person’s unique needs. She does an incredible job of adjusting to each of her clients’ ability levels, and making sure they are doing the exercises correctly. The other instructors at EHF, Courtney and Nicki, are equally passionate and knowledgeable. Honestly, I feel stronger already and I am looking forward to working out with EHF Pilates, and having yet another successful cycling season.

I am a chiropractor and have taken pilates from numerous instructors. Natalie is exceptional. Her knowledge is vast, her teaching skills are excellent, and her passion is contagious. Courtney is remarkably skilled and talented as well. The classes are always challenging, the energy is is always upbeat and fun, and the prices are the best I have seen anywhere.

EHF Pilates is incredible. I am a life long runner, and decided that once I hit my 40s, running didn’t seem to be a good enough workout for my entire body. I decided to give pilates a try in January of 2011, and within weeks, noticed a difference in my body-​and within 3 months, other people noticed too. I have truly never felt or looked better, and my husband of 19 years cannot get over how much my body has changed. I’m actually happier with the way my body looks now than even before I had my 2 children. EVERY part of my body has changed for the better! I also have some serious, chronic health conditions that require me to make some modifications when I exercise, and the instructors are amazing-​so patient, and able to modify the exercises for my issues as well as others with health issues and various fitness levels. Plus, they are so sweet and helpful, working out is always fun. The camaraderie during group sessions is so much fun to be a part of, I look forward to every session and it’s just another huge reason why EHF Pilates is the studio you want to go to.

I have to share my secret. EHF pilates has gotten my post baby body back into decent shape… seriously.
I have taken pilates for about 5 years now, in Chicago, NYC, and Florida. No other studio has offered such a wide array of classes, geared to fit into any fitness level. The instructors are knowledgeable, patient, and motivating. Such a great vibe and sense of community in all of the classes.
You can customize your fitness goals, based on skill level, or personal preference. The assortment of times and options is fantastic~Private sessions are also available. I promise you will enjoy your workout and feel great!
I love EHF, they are the best! Support your local business:)

Natalie the owner is great. I’ve had two sessions with her. Super knowledgeable. The studio equipment is top notch and the place has great energy.
