Core Fit & Well

Heidi Winslow - Principal & Founder of Core Fit & Well

Heidi believes that optimal wellness is created through a combination of strength, flexibility and balance in all aspects of life.

Heidi began working in the wellness world 3 decades ago at The Sports Medicine Institute in Aspen Colorado. She assisted Dr. Bruno Balke and Dr. Julie Anthony with stress tests while also designing training protocols and working as a physical therapy assistant. Being a ski instructor and competitive runner, she was looking for effective conditioning techniques to share with others. Her eagerness to find new ways to help clients rehab from injuries, combined with her curiosity about methods of strength training led her to study Pilates in Boulder, Colorado.  After a move to Telluride Colorado, she became the co-founder of a fitness studio called Work Out. She studied and practiced Ashtanga yoga and created the Core Method Class, which incorporates principals from Pilates and Yoga, for improving strength and flexibility. Moving to the East Coast in 2006, she started her business Core Fit & Well. In 2008 she was introduced to resistance stretching and strengthening, and realizing how beneficial it is for maintaining optimal joint mobility, integrated techniques into her classes and training. 

Heidi began her study and practice of mindfulness and meditation in 2010, which she found to be profound in all aspects of her life, and advised her approach in developing comprehensive, meaningful, classes and programs. Wanting to bring the philosophy of Core to others for an optimal approach to wellbeing, Heidi partners with other talented, inspirational instructors and teachers to create successful, meaningful, workshops and retreats in the US and abroad.
