Welcome to Powerhouse Education - Yoga where you are

Powerhouse - a storehouse of strength, energy and balance for the integration and unity of the whole person

Power House Education is founded on the belief that everything you do in life matters. When you become aware - aware of your breath and of your body, you may begin to move through the world with richness and authenticity. It is through this awareness that you can become a more balanced and productive human being.

The Powerhouse Education Mission:

We are dedicated to helping people realize their true potential. Through simple instruction using breath awareness and hatha yoga we intend to raise self-awareness at home and in the work place. By following these simple instructions it allows the participant to deepen the connection to both themselves and others.

Here's How We Do It

Powerhouse At Your Desk Yoga Workshop:

This is yoga at your desk not yoga down the hall, on your mat or in the gym. In this program, we use or simulate an employee's actual working environment and integrate hatha yoga fundamentals.

This interactive, one-hour workshop provides instruction to help employees release tension and avoid injury - real-time. We give the participant tools to keep them healthy, grounded and energized. The resulting benefits are employees that are able to take care of themselves, are more engaged and therefore, more productive.

Wellness Retreats:

Participating in a Powerhouse retreat offers you a way to bring more health and vitality to your life. We believe in balance and harmony and have designed these workshops with that in mind. There is nothing more important than taking care of yourself, so join us for one of these existing retreats.

Custom Workshops and Retreats:

In addition to our already existing retreats, we take great pleasure in working with you to create custom workshops that can be used for team building, personal growth or wellness awareness. Starting with the foundation of good health, we work with you to design a positive experience tailored to your needs that can be delivered on or off-site.
