New Pilates Studio Coming to Peconic This Summer

The "master" Pilates instructor will be offering private lessons; she has written nine books.

A popular Pilates teacher will be setting up shop in Peconic this summer.

Ellie Herman, a "master instructor" from New York who has published nine books on Pilates, including "Pilates for Dummies," own three studios in Brooklyn -- and will be offering private sessions, rehabilitation, and Pilates teacher training, as well as acupuncture, on the North Fork this summer.

Herman said she will be setting up a fully-equipped private studio in her rental home in Peconic on Sound Avenue near Goldsmith's Inlet; she added that she has been teaching for 20 years and  invented a piece of Pilates equipment called the Pilates Springboard.

She has spent time in the Hamptons, Herman said, but looks forward to exploring the North Fork.

"This is my first year in North Fork and I'm excited to see if this is the place to create a permanent vacation Pilates studio," Herman said.
