Alissa is a passionate Pilates instructor who has enjoyed movement and fitness for over 17 years. She discovered the transformative power of Pilates at Core Studio Pilates when, at the age of 16, she began using it as a cross-training tool to enhance her ballet performance. What started as a way to improve strength and flexibility for dance soon evolved into a deep love for how fitness can empower and heal the body.
Through Pilates, Alissa began to explore the body’s incredible potential, realizing the importance of strength training not only to build muscle but also to enhance functional movement and overall vitality. Her practice is rooted in the belief that fitness has worth beyond beauty — it’s about embracing the body’s strength and capability, fostering a deep sense of well-being that transcends external appearance. This philosophy of movement emphasizes not only physical strength but a mind-body connection that leads to overall well-being.
Alissa is dedicated to helping her clients unlock their full potential, whether they are seasoned athletes or beginners, by creating a supportive and mindful space for personal growth and healing through movement. With a deep commitment to sharing the benefits of Pilates with others, Alissa brings a unique blend of technical expertise and heartfelt care to every class.
