We are so thrilled to introduce you to new Core Teacher Alexandra Abrams! Alex trained at Core Pilates, completing her comprehensive training in April 2018. Also a Zumba and Spinning Instructor, we know that you are going to love her classes as she brings both the party and the heat!
We asked her a few things that we thought you’d love to know about the latest addition to our Team.
What is your Pilates Story?
I discovered my love of movement at a very young age, training in all styles of dance, focusing my repertoire on Modern, Jazz, and Ballet. I always had a passion for fitness and wellness. I became certified in Zumba during college and then later moved to NYC to pursue a career in fitness. I will always remember my first Pilates session. I left the studio feeling exhilarated and excited but with a curiosity about why I felt so great. I completed my 600 hour apprenticeship here at Core Pilates NYC where I fell in love with the Classical Method. With my background in movement, Classical Pilates training and bubbly personality I hope to motivate others to be leaner, stronger and centered, and live a happier & healthier lifestyle.
What is your favorite exercise or class to teach?
I LOVE to teach Mat classes. My goal is to have my clients leaving the mat with less stress, feeling strong, energized, and focused. The ab series are my fav!
What is your favorite class to take?
My favorite class to take is Tower! The classes are playful and fun, but challenging. There is nothing more exhilarating than a Tower Class. I love the variation and flow of the movement while staying true to the Classical System.
Favorite summer read or podcast:
I’m a huge fan of Hannah Bronfman – fashionista and wellness influencer. I have listened to a bunch of her podcasts this summer.
Wine: Red or White?

Beach or Mountains?

Favorite thing to do in your free time?
I’m a MAJOR foodie and love experiencing new restaurants in NYC with my newlywed husband.
One thing you never leave home without
I never leave my home without my mini brush and Mario Badescu lip balm.
