Most importantly, our team at Powerhouse Pilates wants to wish all of you a wonderful, happy holiday. Sending best and most healthy wishes to all!
Health tip: Benefits of Warm Lemon Water
Yes, of course we love coffee in the AM. However, there is another warm beverage we highly recommend starting your morning with: hot lemon water. Sipping this all natural citrus beverage sets the perfect tone for the day with its many health benefits. For example, it:
- Boosts Mood & Relieves Stress – Lemon naturally energizes the body & enhances mood. That’s because it has negatively charged ions, which energize the body upon hitting your digestive tract. Even the scent of lemon is linked to reduction in stress.
- Aids in Digestion – The warmth of water helps hydrate the body & flush out toxins, including from the liver.
- Boosts Immune System – The Vitamin C and potassium in lemons offers a little boost of health for your immune system. Especially critical during flu season.
- Supports Healthy Weight Maintenance – Lemon can boost your metabolism, firing it up at the very start of your day, and has pectin fiber, which can help reduce cravings. (This is particularly valuable at this time of year when cookies and pie are around every corner!)
- Reduces Inflammation – Find relief from joint and knee pain because warm lemon water can dissolve uric acid.
- Supports Youthful, Glowing Skin – Warm lemon water helps hydrate and nourish skin, fighting wrinkles and acne.
Simply squeeze juice from 1/2 a lemon and mix with 1 cup of warm water.
Sip. Enjoy. Done.
Give Back + Relieve Stress at our Donation Classes
To give back to the local community we love this holiday season, we will be hosting donation classes between December 19 – 24. Here’s how it’ll work :
- Classes are first come, first serve.
- It is required to bring one (or, hey, more!) of the following:
- A gift card to either a grocery store or fast food restaurant
- Toiletries (such as toothbrushes, toothpaste, body wash, deodorant, etc.)
- *Travel size is preferred
- New or slightly used blankets, beanies and/or gloves
These items will be going to homeless in need through our neighborhood. Please check the schedule December 19 – 24 to find out what those donation class times will be.
Even if unable to take a donation class, we’d love to invite you to take part in this opportunity. It’s amazing how a small gift such as a gift card to Vons or cozy beanie can make a huge impact for someone less fortunate this holiday season.

Take Cool to a Whole New Level with Healing Cryotherapy (Chill N Out)
Cryotherapy is a practice top minds from around the world are starting to swear by. Now, you can try it for a wicked good discount price.
Cryotherapy takes place in a cryosauna, which uses gas from nitrogen to lower body temperatures to help heal and strengthen the body. Similar to an ice bath benefits, except cryotherapy is WAY more comfortable. When undergoing cryotherapy, your blood becomes intensely enriched then, after the session, that healthy blood is pulled back through the body in order to target injuries and critical areas. This process also triggers the release of anti-inflammatory molecules and endorphins.
The head of Chill N Out is offering a super discount price for an initial session to all Powerhouse Pilates students. A highly trained and professional staff will be there to walk you through the process, answer any questions and even set up a personalized plan for your specific needs.
Discount Price : Only $30 for YOU pilates powerhouse student
