Empower Pilates Studio — Local services in Albuquerque

I purchased a Groupon to attend Empower pilates and it was the best money I have ever spent! I would highly recommend Empower Pilates. Instructor, Lourdes, is extremely knowledgeable and approachable. I have tried several different types of exercise regimens and pilates is the only one that I have been attending dutifully. Lourdes, helps each student achieve their fitness goals. The environment at Empower is warm and inviting. At Empower I enjoy that each class is always different and provides a new challenge every time. Attending classes at Empower I have discovered muscles I didn't know existed and I have found that my body is stronger, flexible and more toned. What's more amazing is that pilates has provided me relief from back pain. Another, positive facet of Empower is its social element. I am amazed at how friendly and supportive everyone is at this studio. My time at Empower has changed my life both mentally and physically. I would highly recommend Empower Pilates for its positive environment and amazing instructor. I really can't say enough good things about...

Empower Pilates is a cozy yet fully equipped studio with top-of-the-line reformers, Gyrotonic machines, Pilates chairs, and a wide-variety of accessories (spine correctors, foam rollers, pillows, balls, weighted bars, etc).

Lourdes, the owner-instructor, possesses a wealth of knowledge and has the "elite" Pilates certifications and continuing education to prove it. In fact, she successfully completed the Lolita San Miguel Pilates Master Mentor Program, a two-year program for certified teachers with three years of teaching experience. Lolita San Miguel is one of only two practitioners certified to teach "the method" by Joseph Pilates.

Lourdes offers variety, fun, safe, and effective exercises to meet individual needs. I always leave the studio feeling refreshed and energized. I have noticed improved balance, core strength, and range of motion especially for my bum shoulder and tight hips (from that pesky desk job, and ok, from aging).

I highly recommend Empower...

I started going to Empower Pilates Studio four years ago when I was 66 year old. I mainly went because my wife had done Pilates for years and thought it would do me good. It was hard at first, but Lourdes Avitia was always encouraging and patient and never embarrassed me. I continued to go twice a week, and over time I lost weight, became stronger and got to the point that I do not want to miss Pilates. I learned the importance of the abdominal muscles and that mine could still be strong after being out of shape for many years. I have been to Pilates classes with other instructors, and none of them have been as good as Lourdes. She's knowledgeable, personable and makes everyone feel welcome. I recommend Empower Pilates Studios without...
