Today we’d like to introduce you to Laura Means.
Laura Means (Owner and Certified Pilates Instructor) understood the need in the Southlake area and the surrounding areas for a unique boutique Pilates/Fusion Studio that incorporates functional fitness. Laura’s youngest daughter, who was an avid volleyball player, had incurred a severe back injury 12 years ago, having broken two vertebrae during an agility training shortly before heading to a national playoff. Having seen numerous spinal specialists, her chosen physician believed that life long Pilates classes would strengthen her core and would ultimately be the greatest catalyst in avoiding spinal surgery. Sure enough, her physical was spot on!
By the time Laura could see the amazing positive impact Reformer Based Pilates had done for her daughter, Laura herself began her own Pilates Journey. It became obvious to her that the clubs and big box gyms were missing key elements that she knew must be engulfed in each and every class in order for each member-client to receive—the most out of each workout. In October of 2018, Power Pilates Southlake opened there doors to the community offering multi level group classes and private classes to women, men and children.
Utilizing the teachings of Jospeh Pilates Power Pilates, Southlake is now a flourishing5 star rates Pilates studio which offers the finest Pilates classes, including reformer based Pilates, Pilates Chair, Springboard, TRX suspension as well as functional fitness and deep stretch classes. Every class is taught by Professional/Certified Pilates Instructors with a full background in anatomy.
Has it been a smooth road?
The road is one we paved and the community has been amazingly supportive of our teachings. We are grateful to every member/client and continue to seek further growth, bringing on more individual clients, corporate clients and sports teams. Finding the highest quality instructors has not always been easy. However, I recognize how fortunate I am at this time to have a team that is always taking us to the next level.
