Specialties
CENTER isn't just another gym. We also aren't just your local yoga and Pilates studio. We don't see exercise as one size fits all, and we certainly don't see wellness as a purely physical endeavor.
Our studio is a haven; a retreat from work even while you "workout". The energy of our space encourages openness and positivity; it invites freedom and happiness. Just walk in and feel the tension and stress start to ease. Stay for an hour, and leave feeling light and free.
Our instructors know movement, they know bodies and they love creativity. They appreciate that not only has each life unfolded differently, but each and every day is unique. They are motivators and mentors, innovative and insightful.
Our offerings are diverse because people need adaptability and tomorrow is a different day. Research is constantly evolving the exercise industry and we make it our priority to stay current and relevant.
Our community is welcoming and joyful. We believe in laughter, lightness, curiosity and optimism. We encourage people to work hard and enjoy life.
Our mission is to help people live more fully in the moment with more vitality and compassion. We want to help people become better people; mentally, physically and spiritually.
So take a deep breath, dig deep, and be ready. Your best is yet to come.
History
Established in 2008.
After teaching dance, yoga and Pilates at various locations from New York to Minnesota, the opportunity to rent a space became available at the perfect time and in the perfect community. Grand Rapids students are some of the very friendliest, and our instructors some of the most knowledgeable.

The love of moving, and the encouragement of friends in the community is what drove me to start CENTER. With the help of my husband, some amazing teachers, and a lot of learning, the studio was born. Because of our students, we continue to grow and thrive.
