Pilates of Cashiers is the first fully equipped Pilates studio in the Cashiers/Highlands community.The studio is located in the heart of Cashiers on Highway 64, just west of the crossroads.
The studio owner, Alexandra (Alex) Warren, received her Pilates certification through Power Pilates, a 600+ hour comprehensive education program. She moved to the United States from her native Germany in 1990. Before moving to Cashiers, Alex lived in Charlotte where she had the opportunity to work with a wide variety of clients from the elderly, to pregnant women, as well as athletes and coaches of the Carolina Panthers.
Pilates is for all ages and body types including bodies with physical limitations like osteoporosis, neck/shoulder/low back injuries and hip/knee surgeries.
This system of exercises, executed with control and mindfulness, will strengthen your deepest inner core muscles. By initiating your moves from a strong core, you will be able to perform daily tasks like walking, lifting and carrying things more conscientiously and efficiently. Independent of skill level or age, Pilates will make your body feel and look stronger and leaner.
“In our studio, we utilize equipment such as reformers, towers, the Cadillac and barrels to create an exercise regimen personalized to your individual needs and goals,” says Alex. “The objective is to make you feel strong from the inside out, to improve balance, alignment and overall well-being.”
Following the teachings of its creator, Joseph H. Pilates, classical Pilates will make you more mentally and physically productive, streamline your shape and reduce stress and fatigue.
Alex is passionate about making each individual feel stronger and more confident after each session. She enjoys working with clients on a one-on-one basis but also offers duets and mat classes.
