Get list of features correlated with target variable

I am trying get the list of features of my dataset greater than 0.15 It code let me do it but I have as result a serie panda that I cant retrieve the column names in a list to after do the drop of them in my dataset. I appreciate your help.

# Remove highly correlated features
cor = features_binario.corr()
#Correlation with output variable
cor_target = abs(cor["G3"])

#Selecting highly correlated features
relevant_features = cor_target[cor_target>0.15]

first_column = relevant_features.iloc[:,0]
first_column

I am getting this error, IndexingError: Too many indexers

Var: relevant_features
school_GP      0.177564
school_MS      0.177564

It is Series, so no columns.

For all values by conditions use:

relevant_features = cor_target.index[cor_target>0.15]
