A Message from your Founder & Owner
My parents threw me in a pool at age four, and for the next 18 years, competitive swimming consumed my life. Throughout my swimming career, I fell in love with movement and training and quickly discovered the strength and confidence that came from pushing my own limits. My passion for movement is the invisible string tying all the best things in my life together. It’s the one thing that’s always made sense. It’s evolved with every era of my life, shaping the 29-year-old I am today — a girl fearlessly chasing her dream to open her very own studio.
I’m Alex Brindisi — lifelong athlete, certified trainer, and fitness enthusiast. I’ve raced in D1 pools, crossed an Ironman finish line, and taught everything from swimming to cycling, strength, and pilates. Pilates inspired movement is my favorite part of every day, and it’s a practice that has completely changed my life. Pilates helped me overcome body image struggles and excessive exercise patterns. Pilates became my safe haven through injury - meeting me exactly where I was physically and keeping me grounded emotionally. Wave Movement was born from my desire to grow my greatest passion into something bigger - my purpose.
For five years, the idea of Wave Movement lived quietly in the back of my mind. I was working full-time in corporate marketing — but it was draining me. The work felt uninspiring. It gave me debilitating anxiety. It left no room for my strengths and too much space for self-doubt. I knew deep down I was meant for more — that I had untapped potential and a purpose I couldn’t access from behind a desk.
One morning in early 2025, my idea wasn’t quiet anymore — it was a voice I couldn’t ignore. Loud. Clear. Unshakable. It was time. Time to move. Time to chase the dream. Time to make it real.
I went all in. I built the plan, ran the numbers, and left corporate America to pursue the dream that consumed my every thought. It was a calculated risk — one I’d take a hundred times over. Every move has been intentional, every step has been carefully built. Chasing this dream and pouring my heart and soul into building Wave Movement lights me up like no job ever has.
Wave Movement is a space built from the best pieces of every studio I’ve ever loved. The energy is high, the music is loud, and the people are what make it magic. The space itself is light and coastal-inspired, filled with blues and ocean tones that feel like home to me. Wave Movement is more than a studio — it’s a reflection of my identity and an expression of my purpose.
Wave was built with people in mind — real people, with real lives, who come to move, connect, laugh, and challenge themselves. I’ve met some of my very best friends in spaces like this, and my hope is that others will find that same kind of connection here. We offer class types for every body and every mood, with a focus on inclusivity, accessibility, and meeting you exactly where you are, every single day.
This space is my dream come to life — but it’s the people who form this community who will make it matter. I can’t wait to meet you, move with you, and see how Wave becomes part of your story too.
This is just the beginning — and I’m so happy you’re here.
Alex
