History
Owner Alexis Miller began studying Pilates in 2000 in Connecticut, then continued in San Francisco and Seattle. Teaching out west and in Geneva Switzerland, she finally landed in Asheville, North Carolina. The word Cisco comes from the area called Cisco in Nantucket, Massachusetts where Alexis is from, as well as from the city San Francisco where she lived for 6 years. Alexis has a certification in Classical Pilates on equipment and mat for all levels, after completing an extensive 700+ hour training at Metropolitan Pilates in Seattle, Washington with Master Teacher Dorothee Vandewalle, in collaboration with The Pilates Center of San Francisco.
