Long Core Pilates — Local services in New York

This review is for the people who think they can't do pilates! The majority of my spine is fused due to severe scoliosis. I tried pilates more than ten years ago and had a bad experience. I didn't think I'd ever try it again....but the equipment caught my eye through the window in my neighborhood, so I reached out to Christine (the owner) via email. I laid everything out - my limitations, goals, and fears. She was so responsive and helpful. Pilates is for everyone, even me. The reformers actually give me the ability to do a lot of the movements that I was unable to do in the classical mat class all those years ago. I'm so glad I tried it. If you're nervous, definitely send her an email and I would highly recommend doing a few one-on-one sessions first. We were able to explore the equipment together and really figure out what I can and can't do. Now I do fine on my own in the restorative class and even held my own in an equipment circuit class earlier this month! I also want to mention since I've been doing yoga for about ten years that this has been a nice supplement to my practice. I'm looking forward to taking more classes and working with the other instructors...

I LOVE THIS PILATES STUDIO. it is clean , welcoming , friendly , and a community that will truly change your life. I dragged my feet working out but knew I needed a healthy change and I feel so lucky and grateful to have come across this studio, the amazing instructors and their dogs haha, and the knowledge of physical health , wellness and fitness they share. I come now almost every day. The sign up process is simple, the app is user friendly and the owner Christine is very reachable, friendly, and has really opened up a whole new world for me. Pilates has made so many other aspects of my life easier , even the way I walk and carry groceries. I have recruited multiple friends and family and they now see why I love it so much. The best 50 mins of your day. You owe that to your self! Do not skip on coming here you will never regret it. All of the equipment is there , no need to buy anything extra unless you want , some classes will have you dripping in sweat and some will have you so stretched and relaxed to face the rest of your day. Your choice! It is just so fun for all ages and stages...

I had very little experience with pilates when I reached out to Longcore Pilates. Christine, the owner and teacher, was responsive, friendly and very helpful. It was super easy to schedule a class with her.

My first class was fun, personalized and got me back in touch with several muscles I forgot I had. After having four babies in seven years and then spending so much time sitting during remote learning with my little kids over the past 18 months my core had disappeared.

The Pilates classes offered at Longcore Pilates are just what my body needed and needs to get back in touch with my core strength. Christine is knowledgeable, supportive and dedicated. She really makes Longcore Pilates for everybody and every body. She was able to modify exercises to accommodate injuries I have and include personal exercises to support healing. The studio offers a variety of classes and equipment and Christine is always offering ways to challenge yourself. If you are reading this and thinking about taking a class this, do it! You...
