Pilates – Joseph Pilates developed this form of exercise in the 1900’s. Pilates conditions the entire body emphasizing core strength and stability. Pilates exercises help to correct muscular imbalances and improve posture by focusing on proper body alignment. With our certified instructors, you will gain strength and flexibility while increasing your body awareness. Joseph Pilates believed his exercise system to be a path toward total health for anyone – from the elite athlete to the frail, and aged. Pilates will help you to transform the way your body looks, feels and performs by encouraging easy, graceful movements. You will build full body strength while creating a sleek, toned physique.

Integrated training - Train for speed, agility, power, strength, endurance and flexibility. An Altitude trainer can help you prevent injury, manage chronic pain and improve all aspects of your performance.
Olympic weightlifting - Altitude has Aspen’s only Olympic lifting platform. Although the Olympic lifts are very advanced and aggressive, modified versions can be used to effectively improve coordination, strength, flexibility, and bone density for people of all ages and fitness levels. Our certified coaches can show you the way.
Russian Kettlebells - Kettlebells provide a fun and highly effective cardiovascular and resistance training workout simultaneously. They help to increase your flexibility and challenge your coordination. Kettlebell training places a high metabolic demand on you body. This makes kettlebell training very useful for burning fat and increasing muscle tone.

Massage & Spa Services
At Altitude we offer a variety of massage services. Talk to your therapist about your individual needs and expectations so that we may create a session designed just for you.
Swedish massage – This traditional oil massage increases relaxation and gives you relief from sore muscles and stress. Swedish massage improves circulation and lymphatic drainage as it flushes wastes and inflammation from your muscles and fascia. Swedish massage calms your nervous system, promoting deep relaxation and reduction of stress. This type of massage will soothe your aching limbs and clear your mind.
Deep Tissue – This deeper, more penetrating therapy is excellent for addressing chronic tightness and pain in your body. Deep tissue work provides relief from musculoskeletal dysfunction and strain. This service includes techniques such as trigger point work, neuromuscular therapy, and myofascial release to separate adhesions, open deeper muscular and connective tissue layers and affect nervous system pain cycles.
Sports Massage – This specific massage is great for rehabilitation of injuries both recent and chronic. This skilled work is performed on or near the injured area in a way that properly addresses the related anatomy. This work effectively breaks up scar tissue, increases range of motion and helps get you back into proper alignment. A proper sports massage will allow you to get back to your favorite sports quickly and comfortably.
Yogic Neuromuscular Therapy™ -- A unique bodywork technique, with very deep muscle release. This is a powerful, innovative and elegant method of neuromuscular rehabilitation and re-education of the muscular system, which allows tension and trauma to be released, revitalizing and rejuvenating the body. This yogic approach to therapy treats the entire body with a system of simple assisted movements in which the clothed body is pre-positioned on custom designed equipment and basic yoga postures.
