I love this place! As a beginner in Pilates, I’ve found everyone at Longevita very welcoming and inclusive.
I was referred to Longevita due to lower back pain. I took Private Lessons with Sheila, to get familiar with the reformer and now I do the group classes. At 70 years old, the pain is gone and I have never felt stronger! Sheila and all the instructors are professional and educated. It has changed by life and always look forward to the FUN atmosphere in the classes! THANK YOU Longevita Pilates & Yoga Studio!
Longevita studio is a warm and welcoming haven where I am receiving more than I ever imagined in exercise and confidence, thanks to Coach Heidi! The studio provides a variety of sessions for groups plus private hourly workouts masterfully tailored for the individual. I am in my 70’s and fortunate to have a private session twice a week in building strength and optimum health, both physically and mentally, for the present and the future. This week I was able to bend over and touch my toes for the first time and I did my first 5K walk last spring!
The studio offers a variety of programs and as a person with Parkinson’s, I am extremely glad one of those programs is Neurofit which addresses the issues faced by those with Parkinson’s or MS. The coaches do a wonderful job with designing and running it while at the same time creating a supportive and fun atmosphere.
I love the Tone and Stretch classes. I am so happy that I found this studio!
I came to Longevita with chronic hip pain. I was listened to, evaluated, and started on an exercise plan that relieved my pain and got me hiking and bicycling again. Deeply grateful to Longevita for being there for me and continuing to support me.
I have never felt more accepted and encouraged than I have at this studio. I made the closest friends of my adulthood here. I got so strong I could lift 50 lb bags no problem, yet, I didn’t gain a pant size. Their barre and yoga is truly therapeutic, and transformative. This place cultivates an environment of health, family, and positivity. You can’t go wrong attending this studio, do yourself a favor and GO.
If you have never done reformer Pilates this is the place to start. I booked a couple private lessons with Sheila, which I would really recommend. There's a wrong way and a right way to do Pilates and Sheila makes sure you do it the right way before you join classes. I've enjoyed ALL the instructors at Longevita, but Jen is my personal favorite. She leads the cardio Pilates classes on Tuesdays and after taking months of the tone & stretch classes, her style is my preference. You will leave tired, sweaty, and feeling great. I cannot recommend this studio enough.
Shelia and the team at Longevita are welcoming and supportive no matter your skill level. I started learning Pilates with some private sessions with Shelia and learned a LOT about my posture, core strength and how to modify exercises for my body - super helpful! Moving onto the classes, it’s way more fun than I thought and I really don’t like exercise, lol.
Been going to Longevita for a few years now taking many different classes. It's been a great community of instructors and members who make you feel comfortable and always provide a great workout! Highly recommend ❤️
I have been a long-time member at Longevita (which says a lot in itself), but I just wanted to write a review regarding the new 6:00 am yoga class on Tuesdays and Thursdays! First of all, I want to thank the studio for being so willing to listen to what members want. I have been wishing and hoping for morning yoga classes to return post-COVID and was delighted to see a 6:00 am class start up on Tuesdays/Thursdays. Enough about my joy and on to my review… Jennifer did an amazing job!!! Her energy was just right for a morning class and she did such a great job of meeting us where we were at with whatever modifications were needed to either step it back or challenge us. Sometimes yoga can be intimidating and this class was perfect. So, way to go Jennifer & way to go Longevita!!! Also, there is no better way to start the day physically and mentally than with yoga. Thanks for bringing this back for us morning yogis! ☀️🧘🏻♀️
Helping me make positive changes to my life. Amazing studio for life long health and wellness. Such a great attitude "feel" for a pilates/etc. studio. My healthy home away from home.
Longevita is a wonderful place to workout doing pilates or yoga or TRX or functional strength and so much more! I've been involved with this studio as a client and an instructor for years now and I still love it! Great community feel and a very caring environment thanks to Shelia, our owner who spreads her wonderful vibe everywhere she goes.
Shelia and her team at Longevita are the real deal! They are kind, knowledgeable, supportive, and help each one of their students and clients feel their very best! Regardless of your skill, experience or ability in Pilates and yoga, the teachers here will modify the exercises to suit what's best for you and your development. I highly recommend!
Great place for Yoga, Pilates, and many restorative treatments. The owner, Shelia, founded a program named NeuroFIT to allow people with neurodegenerative diseases (Parkinson's or MS) to live their best life in spite of their disabilities.
My most recent reformer place and I loved it. They have so many classes everyday including weekends. I hope to attend classes again soon once allowed. Miss you guys.
Love LOve LOVe LOVE Longevita!!! All the ladies are amazing support & every single instructor ROCKS! Super duper fun workouts in Barre & TRX, they kick my butt & kick my tummy with laughter 🤣 , the Hot yogas make me sweat tears of joy 😂 & the restorative does just that, restores my mind, body & soul. The instructors are extremely knowledgeable to the extreme & correct posture and technique should you veer off course, I do regularly hahahahaha Big Thanks to all I’ve had the pleasure of meeting, growing with & working out.... strength in numbers 💪 I told my instructor I’ll be going to the gym after so she makes it her mission to work me so hard I can’t hahaha game on.
Just joined and trying out different classes and I like the teachers for pilates & barre classes. They have now added Zumba so I will try this one too!
Love this place, so far I’ve only done the hot yoga, but I intend on trying the trx classes as well.
Longevita Studio offers a variety of classes, that meets the need for everyone. The instructions are highly qualified and help members become successful in our wellness journey! You Should Be Here!
This is a great Pilates studio. It's a little more on the expensive side, but I believe it's worth it for what you get out of it.
I love Longevita Pilates. I will be seventy this year. I am stronger and straighter than I have been in decades. I used to have almost no mobility in my neck. I can now turn my neck normally. Don't be afraid to try this because of any issues or injuries, they can modify for your specific problems. For me, it has changed everything. It has balanced my body. All the instructors really care and coach to help you improve. There are great varieties of classes and times. I have found something that I love. I would encourage any gender or age to try Longevita, it is a great place to get strong!
I really love this place a lot. I have been going there for about five months and attend multiple classes per week. I definitely have my favorite instructors and there are instructors I won't go back to, but it's just personal preference. It's nice that there are styles that fit difference people. I wish that the non-heated room had padded floors, but other than that, can't complain! I would totally recommend this studio. Plus they have really awesome starter packages. I paid $30 for my first 30 days 😳 Can't beat that 😄
I love this hot yoga place. I have been there for 1.5 months and enjoy all the hot yoga instructors that I've had.
I had back surgery 15mo ago and turned to Pilates. Thanks Sheila for all your help with regaining my strength! 💕
An amazing studio downtown Auburn. Warm and welcoming and focused on wellness for all individuals. The studio turned my life around and I am much more happy and confident going into my 60s knowing that the studio will keep me functionally strong as I begin to enjoy retirement. Another blue ribbon for Longevita was their willingness to work with me in the months leading up to my knee replacement. I continued to attend my pilates classes (heavy modifications) up to two days before surgery and boy did it pay off. Two weeks into PT and I had full mobility. The strength, flexibility and stamina I went into surgery with has made my recovery much quicker. Very thankful for Sheila and her staff and all they do for their clients.

This place is awesome, & supportive. Shelia is the owner and she is incredibly good at what she does. I cannot say enough good things about this studio, and Shelia. Remarkable guidance. I had back surgery in October of 2018, I thought that after surgery and 12 weeks of physical therapy I was going to be fine. But, I live with degenerative disc disease and it is progressive, so I started having a lot of pain again by the spring of 2020 so I made an appointment with my surgeon and had another MRI, when I had met him he looked at me and said there was nothing he could do to fix my issues and surgery was not the answer. He stated that what I needed was Pilates. I cried all the way home and faced the reality that I was over weight, out of shape, and in pain and scared to death to even try to exercise. But I pulled myself up and started searching for a Pilates instructor. I found Shelia at Longevita. She knew a lot about my disease and exactly what to do to assist me with strengthening my abdominal muscles and the rest of them so it can help support my spine. After 2 months of working out I was out of pain. She also taught me how to walk, hold my posture, and lift or bend so I wasn’t injuring myself every time I did something. This alone has been incredibly helpful. I no stick with my boundaries regarding lifting things and am conscious about how my body is positioned. I have dropped several sizes and also 25 lbs so far. It’s not always easy to stay motivated but I have to continue because I know that I feel better than I have in years and I don’t want the alternative which is living my life in pain every day. It’s easier to be tired from exercise than it is to be exhausted from pain and miserable. Besides I feel great afterward and it’s a huge win for the day. I couldn’t have done this without the help and support I received from Shelia. Call her today and start your journey too. Best wishes for all of you -if I can do this at 52 -so can you.🥰
Great instructors - quickly adapted to online format so members could stay engaged and work out with the groups during social distancing
Everything , is a fantastic place
Awesome 😎 Flexible times, great and knowledgeable instructors!
The newbie special is awesome! Absolutely obsessed with Alisha's 0600 hot sculpt class. Wow is she impressive and her class literally kicks my butt!!! Super clean, amazing staff, great classes.
I filled out a health questionnaire which included me stating that I have asthma. I am wondering why you have this if no one reads it. I had to leave in the middle of hot yoga due to not being able to breath. I feel as if someone had actually read it, I may have been told to either get my inhaler or choose a different class. Hmmm!
THIS IS YOUR STUDIO! I started going here in October after I tried the new client special (definitely take them up on that offer) and I attend classes 5 days a week still! Besides the insane amount of class offerings (pilates, yoga, barre, TRX, Zumba) the instructors and the people at Longevita are family. Everyone genuinely cares and is encouraging about where you're at and where you're going on your fitness journey. I have had chronic back issues for years now but after I started coming here I have virtually no pain anymore! Sheila and her amazing staff make this place my second home during the week!
Instructors are knowledgeable and lead an energizing class!!
When I came in for the first time the front desk was so helpful, gave me a tour told me about the classes An spa part. So friendly so easy going so far!!
I got the student unlimited trial and I loved my first class today! I signed up for the rest of the week to try out some more classes! The instructor was awesome. She had great instructions and alternative poses and great guidance!
Friendly, clean and attentive! I look forward to going and always feel better afterwards. Every instructor I have had has been skilled and fun.
I am a member at the Longevita Pilates Studio. I recently broke two bones in my foot due to a fall on a slippery deck and I am now healing. Pilates has helped me more than anything to regain balance and to ease pain in my hips. Sheila is the owner at Longivita and I especially thank her for her expertise and support. I cannot recommend Longegita Pilates and Yoga Studio too highly. Thanks to each and every one of the instructors for your generous help and expertise.
Longevita is a beautiful, peaceful, well designed space with outstanding equipment, amazing instructors & a vibe to help you thrive! I highly recommend it to become a better you!
I have done yoga in the past, and was looking for a place to start back up again. This studio did not disappoint me. I absolutely love their hot yoga classes, and their schedule allows me to come in around my work hours. I will happily be practicing here long term. 🙂
Love the place. Got tired of being disabled and in pain, limited range of motion. Bad car accident '04 left me damaged. Seemed to be getting worse lately. Started at Longevita last October. Never done hot yoga before. Was doing yoga 20 yrs ago but gave up on it. Walked in on a whim, stuck with it cuz it really HELPS! Appreciate the supportive fun instructors, variety of times. Getting stronger, improving balance and motion, pain management. This week did 5 classes. 7 mile hike to Grand Park. Hiking the Wonderland trail in September. Life is good. Thanks Longevita
I can't say enough good things about this studio! Every class, every instructor, every staff member I've encountered has been wonderful. Love supporting this local business and am thrilled to have them so close to home. If you haven't tried a class here yet, DO IT! You won't be disappointed.
I took private Pilates classes from Shelia Cowart for a year. I learned so much. Now it is up to me to continue the training on my own. The new studio is lovely. Shelia has put her personal stamp on the space. She offers a lovely environment. I have thought about group classes, but am disinclined. My dog Sadie would love to see Shelia and all the "girls." She stayed with Shelia Iast June while I was away on business. Happy girl. I was concerned Sadie might not want to come home with me. Shelia is uniquely lovely and skilled.
I've been coming to this studio for 6 months and love it. I regularly go to the Barre classes and all of the instructors are fantastic. I've also tried the yoga and Pilate classes and enjoy them as well.
Shelia Cowart is, first and most importantly, an amazing person applying her skill as an instructor of Stott Pilates to all she encounters. I would not be where I am today without her! I recommend her, her staff and her studio to anyone looking for special service and treatment! Thank you Longevita!
I HATE WORK OUT PROGRAMS... I DO NOT like to jump around like a 20 year old. I DON'T want to shake rattle and roll... I have paid $1000.00's of dollars at gyms ONLY to never get anyone to help, ( BUT THEY SURE ARE HELPFUL WHEN TAKING YOUR MONEY) But here at LONGEVITA... now this is something I can seriously do for the rest of my life!!!! I LOVE SHEILA! She's the best! I HIGHLY recommend Pilates to anyone that wants to get healthy, build a better toned body, and just plain feel amazing... 5 stars all around. THANK YOU.
Yes Shelia is great!
