NeXa Pilates & Fitness
NeXa has changed my life. I feel better; my body feels better. If anyone is considering adding pilates into their exercise routine, this is the place to do it. I'm not a youngster. I'm 66 years old. But, after my private sessions, I feel 16! The place is beautiful, streaming outside light throughout and the studio is spotless and kept incredibly clean and hygienic.

I look forward to every class and privates session I take here. Just an extraordinary place!-Rosanne H. I was introduced to Nexa Pilates and Fitness at an event. It was simply gorgeous. I have never seen such a beautiful space even going back 20 years that I have done Pilates. The studio is beautiful;, great lighting and all of the equipment is clean and beautiful.
Services
We believe in challenging the body in a multi-faceted way to create a lasting change in the body. To do this, we have created a fully equipped Pilates studio that offers all levels of both private and group classes taught by our classically trained instructors, most of whom have over 10 years of experience.
The Pilates Standard Mat work training program consists of 100 hours and contains 4 modules. This is the basis for all of our training programs. You will learn 21 beginner exercises & become familiar with The Pilates Standard teaching components (philosophy, teaching method, and class structure). You will learn the idea level excercises on the Mat and how to incorporate them into the intro to Mat sequence.
Tactile or 'hands-on' cueing, is the most effective way to indicate action, direction and intention to our clients. Do you feel comfortable using your hands when you need to? Are your hands-on cues clear? Are you confident spotting clients on more advanced exercises, where safety is involved?

Join Master trainer Anna Clark as she goes through each of the original 34 mat exercises to show how you can align, assist, resist or stretch your clients in each exercise.Anna has been teaching for Pilates for 18 years and runs Nexa Pilates and Fitness in NYC. She is also the National Director for Bob Liekens' The Pilates Standard Teacher Trainer program.
Our goal is to honor the original method of Joseph H Pilates. We stay true to the classical Pilates method, analyze it's fundamental concepts and teach with an in-depth and intelligent approach to our training programs. The Pilates Standard Comprehensive, Mat and several continuing education workshops were designed by the late Bob Liekens, a second generation Pilates instructor coming directly from the Romana Kryzanovska lineage.

I have been going to Nexa for several months now and I LOVE this studio. Of all the studios I have worked with on the UWS (I've been doing Pilates for a few years), Nexa is my favorite. There is a strong variety of instructors who each bring something different to my practice, the place is spacious and clean (especially important these days!), and the staff is the best. Nexa is a welcome addition to the neighborhood.

I'd been looking for a studio for awhile (prior pandemic) and feel extremely fortunate to have finally find Nexa. As an aging athlete I needed someone who was attentive to my injuries while simultaneously satisfied my desire to develop a regimen so I could become stronger & stay fit to continue to run (my 1st love) So often older clients can be made to feel as less than but not at Nexa. My trainer was positive yet not patronizing. The entire staff was friendly & welcoming. And the new spacious studio makes you want to come back. As for me, I'll be back next week!

Outstanding and attentive instructors combined with clean, state-of-the-art facilities equals an excellent place for Pilates. I had a credit of 16 private and group lessons from before the pandemic struck. A year later, the studio honored me with all the missed classes. Nexa is smoothly run and well managed and the karma is good. Highly recommended

I discovered this studio serendipitously walking by this Sunday. Admittedly, I haven't done an in-person class since last March – but I was pleasantly surprised how easy, clean, safe, comfortable, and GREAT it felt to take a semi-private. The space itself is brand-new, the staff is so lovely and fantastic, and I'm already sore from my first class! Will be going back each Wednesday night for the foreseeable future.

Is the most beautiful Pilates studio I have ever seen. Uplifting clean organized and everything runs on schedule. Needless to say the trainers here as well as their support team are incredibly helpful and I feel my personal trainers really really care about me.

I have been doing Pilates for 10 years and I have found that Anna Clark, The owner of the studio, it's a Pilates master as well as a yoga master. I love having the option of switching up my work out intention to places that the Pilates discipline addresses and the other discipline addresses.

Massive studio. Bright & clean although the bathroom and shower locations are confusing at first. Albina was a great yet tough instructor for the tower class.

I love this place! Great instructors and open and airy space. I have gone down 1 size since I started in the summer. Instructors really mix it up and each time I go there are different moves. Keeps it challenging and fun. The hour goes by quickly for me.

This new NeXa location is fantastic. I've been here multiple times, attending sessions led by different instructors and have never been disappointed. Classes are small (4-5 people) so everyone gets a lot of attention; equipment is new and clean; and prices are very competitive. I highly recommend NeXa!

I've been to the original location three times and tried 3 different instructors for private's as I'm new to Pilates. All of the instructors were amazing and each w his own style... I just recently got back for my first reformer class at the new location and all I can say is that it is to die for. The place is huge and they offer TRX, kettle bell, bar class and dance. I'm interested in trying TRX and kettle but the Pilates is by far the greatest and I feel so good after a workout. They have an infra ref sauna downstairs and massage table so I can't wait to try that too

Been coming here since they opened! Still remember walking by their open house and being thrilled that there was a Pilates studio opening at such a convenient location.

Everyone here is phenomenal. From the friendly people working at the desk to the trainers themselves, I've never been disappointed by my experience. If it weren't for my crazy work schedule, I would definitely be investing in the monthly unlimited pass so that I could come as much as possible. Special shoutout to Katrina Walker and Jennifer Kalajian for being incredibly nice as well as attentive to my personal needs

Love having this in the neighborhood. The equipment and instructors are top notch. Group reformer and tower classes are a great option and less expensive than private sessions. And not all Pilates studios offer them so I an very happy they opened on the UWS!

Great classical Pilates studio. I've taken reformer and tower classes with three different instructors and they all stick with the classical method. 7AM with Sarah is a great way to start my Mondays. She is encouraging, technical, and offers variations for different levels. The studio is clean and there is a very friendly vibe. Recommend!

I've started coming to nexa via classpass and have had amazing experiences every time.

Specifically Karen Patterson and Katie Milani provided the two BEST PILATES CLASSES I HAVE EVER TAKEN. Both women were both warm and welcoming while being technically focused and challenging. I was challenged and quite literally reached new heights during and after these classes

While on a few weeks work stay in NYC, I've got my wife to go to this place and she loved it, she said her experience has been the best of any Pilates sessions she's done in the past. Is the main thing she missed from NYC now, she cant wait to go back to work with the instructors, who she believed to be highly trained and efficient with their time.

Light airy space, all new tower and reformer equipment, and MOST importantly, wonderful teachers and staff! Dace and Danny are flexible and thoughtful administrators, and the teachers are uniformly experienced and understanding. I came to Pilates about three months ago for the first time, and with their help I am steadily gaining proficiency. I feel much better, my posture is improving, and---I'm sleeping better. So the 2x per week Pilates is having a significant effect. I highly recommend NeXa.

NeXa Pilates is the best Pilates experiences I have had in New York City. The studio is beautiful, all white equipment (so chic!) and very clean! The instructors are very educated and attentive. I would highly recommend you visit their studio!
