WE CHANGE BODIES


ABOUT US

In 2007, our first studio opened in Emerson, NJ called The Pilates Stance. After many years of success, we opened our second location in 2017 in Montclair, NJ called The Pilates Link. Most recently, in 2021, we decided to move our Emerson location to a more fitting/bigger space in Ridgewood, NJ.

In addition to the physical move, we decided to re-identify ourselves as The Link Studios. By taking Pilates out of the name, we better represent what we offer. Over the years, we have expanded on our knowledge and experience to offer a more effective way to train your body than Pilates alone.

While staying true to the Pilates Method developed by Joseph Pilates, we have also implemented Functional Movement and Myofascial Training. This class is a fascia-oriented training regiment that perfectly complements Pilates by exploring more movements in the transversal plane. A proper reciprocal twisting is fundamental for a healthy human gait. In other words, working your body in the way it was built to move.

The bigger space in Ridgewood has also allowed us to bring back Boxing! As a trained boxer in Vienna, Austria, Alessandro is particularly excited to share his knowledge of the sport. It is a fantastic form of fitness and self defense.

The combination (or “linking”) of these various workouts can only enhance your personal results.

“Linking” your different workouts to achieve a stronger and more efficient body.
