ABPilates & Wellness

Specialties

Enjoy personal fitness at its best! In downtown Brooklyn, find the supple balance of mind, body, and spirit, with high-​level one-​on-​one fitness training.

Through the power of the Pilates Method, AB Pilates and Wellness focuses on awakening the body’s natural healing processes. Those who study this form practice a combination of gentle and invigorating exercises that strengthen and align the body, while attuning the mind-​body connection. Such work brings more vitality, breath support, digestive health, and an overall sense of accomplishment. While Pilates strengthens the core like no other fitness régime can, it also improves blood circulation, neuromuscular coordination, agility and stamina; reduces stress, joint and back pain, and allows free-​moving bodies to enjoy effortless activity.

AB Pilates and Wellness guides clients toward a lifelong practice for improving the way their bodies look and feel, through meditative fitness and integrative healing.
