The Ellie Herman  Studio is opening its “classy,” new annex this week with FREE classes. That’s right. FREE CLASSES.

The annex, located on 4th Street just East of Seventh Avenue in Park Slope, is a serene and pretty space perfect for yoga, mat/springboard classes and the studio’s latest offering, Intensati, a fun and mindful mix of low impact aerobics and yoga ( with lots of positive  affirmations  like ” I am enough”) thrown in.

The good news is that the  classes will only be $20.00 when they start charging for them. That’s right $20 bucks.

In addition to Pilates, the studio is offering teen pilates, modern dance and something called Balls to the Wall. I’m not sure what that is, but I think it has to do with these inflatable blue balls they are fond of.

And if you’re not sure what Pilates is,  they are offering Absolute Beginner Pilates—it’s a great form of exercise by the way.

So take advantage of the new studio and this one week only offer of FREE CLASSES. The new studio is just a  stones throw from Seventh Avenue on Fourth Street and start your summer with your abs, arms  and whole body feeling strong.

There will be a big opening party at the annex on Saturday May 15th from 4:30-7:30pm.
