Owner & Lead Instructor- JEN

Jennifer Nirenberg is the founder of Core Luxe Pilates, a boutique reformer Pilates studio located in Bantam, Connecticut, serving clients throughout Litchfield County including Litchfield, Washington, Morris, Watertown, Kent, Torrington, and surrounding communities.

With over 20 years in the medical field prior to opening Core Luxe Pilates, Jennifer developed a uniquely informed understanding of anatomy, biomechanics, post surgical recovery, patient care, and individualized support. Her extensive background in plastic surgery and surgical center operations shaped her thoughtful, body conscious approach to movement, wellness, and rehabilitation focused exercise.

Jennifer is a STOTT PILATES® Certified Instructor with advanced training in injuries and special populations, including pre and postnatal clients, osteoporosis, scoliosis, spinal fusions, joint replacements, mastectomy recovery, and post surgical rehabilitation.

She is also certified in Pilates Suspension Method™ (PSM) and AIRFORMER®, expanding her expertise beyond traditional reformer training to include suspension based movement, dynamic stability training, balance, coordination, and full body conditioning.

At Core Luxe Pilates, movement is more than choreography and counting. Jennifer’s teaching philosophy is rooted in anatomy, alignment, biomechanics, and purposeful movement education. Clients learn not only how to move, but why movement patterns matter for posture, strength, stability, mobility, and long term body support both inside and outside the studio.

Known for her personalized approach and intentional class design, Jennifer keeps classes small to create a supportive, elevated experience where clients feel both challenged and guided. Whether working with beginners, athletes, post rehabilitation clients, or experienced movers, her focus remains the same: helping clients build strength, confidence, body awareness, and connection through intelligent movement.

Core Luxe Pilates was created to offer a more refined approach to fitness — blending luxury, education, intentional movement, and community in a welcoming boutique studio environment.

She has trained extensively through Balanced Body and under the guidance of master trainers, cultivating a practice that emphasizes precision, control, and fluidity. With roots in the fitness industry, Alex brings a thoughtful, elevated approach to every class. At Core Luxe, she inspires clients to move with intention, build resilience, and experience the true luxury of feeling at home in their bodies.
