Welcome to Powerhouse Pilates

We want you to feel welcome at our studio so we’ve created a space where you can relax, reveal your challenges, rejuvenate and focus. It’s light­hearted and fun. And you don’t have to be fit to come here. You come here to get fit! Come as you are. We call our exquisite home­based studio the Zen studio because that’s what it feels like. Zen. Serene. Clean. Calm. But that doesn’t mean that you won’t be reaching for your edge and shedding more than a couple beads of sweat. You will. This space is designed for movement.

The Studio

Jody Brouwers: Founder

I have always been fascinated with movement. It’s my greatest passion and such a big part of who I am. I have or continue to be a dancer, yogi, runner, rock climber, skier, hiker, mountaineer, pilates enthusiast and teacher. Pilates is the most intelligent form of exercise I’ve ever come across. I absolutely love the way it makes me feel and I practice it every single day. I want to share my passion with others, so that they can find their strength and accomplish whatever it may be that they’re striving for.

And there are new variations right around the corner that act like stepping stones, leading you to most advanced version of the exercise. 😊

Amazing results will pop up during the entire process, not just at your destination.

Which variation fits you best today?
Have a great day! ❤️

PS - There’s a tutorial for this exercise on my platform that covers how to do the original exercise with precision, and variations to meet you where you are today.

This is a glimpse into my process.  I think on paper, then I think on the mat, and then I create a class (or two). 

Join me on the mat. 😊 My online classes are now available.  I offer both Classical Pilates classes and Pilates-inspired classes. 

I always offer different levels, because I think workouts should meet you exactly where you are today and over time take you to where you want to go. 

Have a great day. ❤️

Before Pilates filled my world, it was yoga.  And before yoga, it was dance. Movement has always been center stage for me.

This month has been an exciting one, but also a stressful one.  But when I hit the mat, everything fades away…and there is just me, music, and movement.  It is the most  peaceful, grounding, calming sensation in the world. 

What does movement do for you?  How does it make you feel? 

I hope you have a good day today.
And I hope you have something in your life that brings you back to center and makes you feel happy.
Jody

The Pilates roll up. This exercise builds STRONG a The Pilates roll up. This exercise builds STRONG abs and a flexible supple spine….but what if you can’t get up? And once you do, how can you get maximum benefits?

Here are some tips from my recent tutorial.

1. Cat cow is your new best friend to build spinal mobility.
2. Ab curl - break it up and start strengthening your upper abs.
3. 1/2 roll back - flex your lumbar spine with support from your abdominals.  Further strengthen your abdominals. Make sure things feel good. 
4. Freeze. Freeze. And freeze. Momentum does NOT belong when doing the roll up.  Only smooth muscular control. I like this game called freeze where you challenge yourself to freeze at any moment. 
5. Support your head and encourage the head to be heavy in the hands.  This is another way of saying, ‘Stop trying to use your neck to get up’. Your neck won’t get you very far. And if you keep trying to use it to compensate for weak abs it will make you very uncomfortable.

 I hope this helps you! 😊😊😊Want more tips and tricks?  Ready to feel amazing? Join me on my platform. First 7 days are free. 

Have a great day! ❤️
Jody

New class! When I started focusing on the followi New class!

When I started focusing on the following, my torso got leaner and stronger, and my chronic neck tension disappeared. 😊

1. Good breathing technique 
2. Core stability
3. Spinal mobility
4. Building abdominal strength

Here are snippets from my online class Intermediate 17-Foam Roller - a class that focuses on all of the above. This theme runs through so many of my sessions.  I believe so strongly in its power for transformation. 

Happy weekend!
Doing something fun?
Have a great day. ❤️
