an urban spa oasis merging mind and body, and co-creator of the Core Fusion class at exhale. Fred began teaching fitness in 1978, as a physical education instructor in the public school system. That's when he first noticed that not all exercises produced results. We used to do jumping jacks, wind mills, toe touches and run the track, but the skinny kids would stay skinny and the fat kids would stay fat. Before opening Exhale Spa, for 20 years, with his wife and partner, Elisabeth Halfpapp, he taught classes at the acclaimed, Lotte Berk Method Studio, on the upper east side of New York City.
