Hudson Valley Fall Retreat
A 3-Day Pilates Retreat at Lundy Farm in Wawarsing, NY
November 1-3, 2024
Join me for a weekend of movement at Lundy Farm in the heart of the Hudson Valley. Soak up everything Upstate NY in the fall has to offer, take in the foliage and fresh air, eat nourishing food, do a ton of Pilates with some Yoga and breath work sprinkled in, all while hanging out with new (and perhaps old) friends in this beautiful setting. All levels and abilities welcome! No previous Pilates experience required!

About Lundy Farm
A 62-acre property—2 hours north of NYC—surrounded by 30,000 acres of state forest in the Hudson Valley. This luxury 2-villa estate was purchased by Brooklyn restauranteur Irving Lundy in 1920 to be a gathering place for experiencing nature’s high aesthetics. Through an extensive revitalization, that foundation and vision have been maintained.
Guests stay in the newly renovated guest house featuring private rooms and bathrooms, comfortable common rooms, reading nooks and fireplaces. A modern greenhouse, 4-acre regenerative organic farm, and chef kitchen complement the estate.
The expansive landscape set in a mountainous valley caters to long walks, bike rides, and hiking. The restored horse stables were thoughtfully remodeled into a movement and wellness studio. A large spring-fed pond and sauna provide plenty of opportunities for fun and relaxation.

ABOUT ABBY
Abby Suskin is a former tightwire walker turned Pilates instructor with over 20 years of professional movement experience.
A native Vermonter, she has travelled the world with the circus and now calls Brooklyn, NY home. Abby is inspired by nature, connecting with others, and bringing joy to her life and to the lives of her students. After years as head of programming at New York Pilates, she created Pilates With Abs - her slow-burn custom movement method in March of 2020 to raise money for NYC hospitals.
