About Francesca Gorgone

Francesca Gorgone is a Certified Pilates Instructor, NASM Certified Personal Trainer, and the Owner of Powercore Pilates in Vienna, Virginia. With over 18 years of experience in fitness and Pilates instruction, Francesca blends the timeless precision of Classical Pilates with the empowering benefits of strength training, helping clients move with greater confidence, resilience, and purpose.

In 2008, Francesca founded Powercore Pilates to create a boutique studio experience centered on personalized care, mindful movement, and lasting strength.

She holds a Comprehensive Certification through Power Pilates (bridged with Bob Liekens and Susan Moran in 2010) and became a Power Pilates Teacher Trainer in 2022. Francesca also shares her expertise at The Madeira School, where she mentors young movers through the discipline of Classical Pilates.

Francesca’s teaching philosophy focuses on alignment, strength, precision, and mind-body connection. Her sessions prioritize individualized attention, helping each client build resilience, improve posture, enhance energy, and experience movement with greater ease and confidence.

Born and raised in Washington, D.C., Francesca’s Thai and Italian heritage shaped her strong, empathetic spirit — qualities she brings into every session with her clients.

Outside the studio, Francesca enjoys exploring mindful movement practices, strength training for wellness, walking outdoors, and continuing her studies in Pilates, wellness, and personal growth. She loves spending time with her family, discovering new ways to nourish mind, body, and spirit, and creating spaces where health and connection thrive.

"My greatest reward is seeing clients grow stronger — not just physically, but in how they move through life."
