The Bergen County Girl Team 
This article is sponsored by Rebel Core Ramsey.
A new fitness concept has officially arrived in Bergen County. Rebel Core, a modern Pilates studio that offers a new approach to fitness in New Jersey, has opened its doors in Ramsey, marking its third location and its first in Bergen County. Located at 1000 Lake Street, Suite 700C, the fitness studio introduces a 45-minute, full-body modern pilates workout designed to build strength, balance, and mobility in a way that feels both challenging and approachable. Keep reading to learn about Rebel Core Ramsey and how it can help switch up your workout routine.
Workouts That Make You “Feel Like a Rebel”
At the core of Rebel Core’s method is a combination of bodybuilding, physical therapy principles, and classical Pilates. Each class takes place on an XFormer, a reformer-style Pilates machine that uses resistance springs and a moving carriage to create tension throughout the workout. The focus is on slow, controlled movements with quick transitions. It’s as hard as it sounds (trust us!!), but so rewarding.
Rebel Core’s instructors emphasize form and alignment, often offering hands-on corrections and guidance to help clients get the most out of each movement. The result is a workout that targets multiple muscle groups while also supporting long-term strength and stability.
One of our favorite aspects of Rebel Core is its focus on accessibility. Classes are designed for all fitness levels with the goal of each client, new or experienced, feeling confident and empowered by the end of a class.
A Personal Connection to Ramsey
The Ramsey studio is not just another expansion for the brand, but a personal milestone for co-owner Alyssa Kievit, who first began teaching at Rebel Core as an instructor at the Roseland location. As a pelvic floor physical therapist, she found that the methods supported her fitness goals in a way that other workouts did not.
After moving to Ridgewood with her husband Will, Alyssa saw an opportunity to bring the concept closer to home. Now, alongside founders Stephanie and Bill Rogers, the team is bringing Rebel Core to Bergen County with the goal of providing a unique workout space for all fitness enthusiasts.

To celebrate the Ramsey opening, Rebel Core is launching a Founder’s Pricing package (exciting!), which will give early members access to its best rates on memberships and class packages.
