Fit to the Core

Andrea Dow’s secret teaching weapon is a toolbox filled with exercise and nutrition tips. As a Power Pilates Teacher Trainer, a Recognized Yoga Teacher and a certified nutritionist, Dow has found that sharing current scientific research and dishing on fitness fads helps keep clients at Core Concepts – her Milwaukee, Wis. Pilates studio – motivated and engaged. Andrea encourages readers to think of every posting to Fit to the Core as a healthy (or zany) Cadillac conversation-starter. She welcomes related questions and musings at andrea@coreconcepts-pilates.com.
