Lou Cornacchia

Lou started her Dance and Teaching Career in the early 1970’s in Los Angeles, Calif. In 1983, she relocated to New York where she continues to teach and educate people on the importance of health and fitness. Her creative, energetic and caring approach to teaching has made her one of the best in her field. Her outstanding reputation has earned her a huge following throughout the neighborhood and citywide.

Lou had a serious fall down a flight of stairs which changed her life. After being diagnosed with herniated disks in the lumbar spine and degenerative neck disease she turned to this miraculous system for help. This devastating time, ended up being the turning point of her career. It was the first time since the injury that she felt that she was on the road to recovery. "Not only did I get better, but I was better than ever!" Just a few minutes a day keeps her pain free and feeling wonderful.

Teaching and continually seeing the amazing results of this method has turned my career into a more rewarding experience than I could have ever imagined…I truly believe that whether you're a top Athlete or a first-time exerciser...PILATES CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE!
