Westfield Welcomes New Fitness Studio

WESTFIELD, NJ — A new luxury Pilates studio now calls Westfield home.

GTHR Pilates has only been open for a few days in its 500 Central Ave. location, but the team feels they are already well on their way to buidling what they call "Pilates, perfected" to the community.

"GTHR began as a daydream," says founder Sarah Himmelbaum, "a craving for a studio... intentional and inspiring." At their flagship Westfield location, attendees will take part in a variety of workouts utilitizing four pillars of instruction: artful precision, elevated wellness, holistic empowerment and curated community.

For Sarah, the business is as much a career as it is an introspective on her own life after child birth had left her questioning who she was in the mirror. "After challenging pregnancies left me in a body I didn't recognize, I found my true love for Pilates."

At GTHR, class times vary and all incorporate full-body workouts. All bookings are done in advance through the GTHR website beginning at 5 p.m. every Sunday for the following Tuesday through Monday. Walk-ins are permitted if space is available.

Attendees must be at least 16 years old. Participants under 18 must have a waiver signed by a parent or guardian.
