Over 18 years ago, Audrey Cohen decided to start her own business, which was not an easy feat for a single girl. Fitness was popular and Audrey loved fashion so fitness clothes and accessories were a perfect fit and Freestyle came to life. Audrey had a goal, stuck with it, and has become quite a success.
Through word of mouth her clientele has grown and so has her workspace from four feet to a store conveniently located on Avenue U, in the center of the community. Most 
of Audrey’s merchandise can only be found in Manhattan.
“I always wanted to start my own business and I’m always happy to meet the needs of my customers. Over the years I have watched the styles and trends change and evolve, and the merchandise I sell reflects the times, as well as the needs of my customers,” she said.
Freestyle offers a wide variety of running and fitness clothes, outerwear, hats, gloves, headbands, and ski accessories. If you are traveling, Freestyle has a great selection of jackets and vests, which will fit very easily in your luggage. Audrey sells quality items, which will prove durable and she’ll happily order special clothes or accessories for you.
“I need to wear comfortable clothing on a regular basis. As a new customer I was pleased with the quality of the merchandise Audrey sells. She gave an honest opinion 
on what looks good, and I feel like the clothing will last me a long time,” said one very satisfied woman.
Freestyle is located at 507 Avenue U. The phone number is (718) 382-3269 and the hours are Monday through Thursday 11 – 6, Friday 11 until an hour before Shabbat. Visit Audreay on Facebook under Freestyle LTD, to see the latest trends in fitness fashion.
