Kelly Voelpel

Kelly has been moving her whole life, beginning when she discovered her passion for ballet dancing at a young age. Later,when she found Pilates, it was a perfect match— another form of movement  that builds the strength, balance, and body awareness that makes you feel joyful and confident.  

She earned her comprehensive 600-hour certification through The Pilates Standard in early 2024 and teaches at Asphalt Green’s Upper East Side campus, a Soho studio, and Equinox. She also still teaches ballet to kids and performs with a small dance company. Movement isn’t just her job — it’s how she’s built. 

That personal experience shapes how Kelly teaches. She knows firsthand how much a consistent practice changes the way you feel day to day, and she brings that into every session. Her goal is simple: make it welcoming, make it challenging, and make it worth showing up for. 

Her favorite reminder? There’s something out there for everyone — find movement you enjoy, and it takes some of the work out of your workout.
