What is HEROBOARD PILATES™?
HEROBOARD PILATES™ is a performance-driven, low-impact training method designed to build strength, control, and muscular endurance through intentional movement.
The method centers around the HEROBOARD™, a compact wheeled training platform that challenges stability, balance, and precision throughout every exercise. Because the board moves with the body, participants must continuously engage their core and stabilizing muscles to maintain control.
POWER DESIGN
As a HEROBOARD PILATES™ Certified Corporate Wellness Partner, Power Design integrates the method directly into their internal wellness programming — a reflection of their belief that when people feel their best, they perform their best. They represent a new frontier for HEROBOARD PILATES™: bringing intentional, low-impact strength training into the corporate space.
THE MILL
The Mill, founded by Dr. Hannah Mills, Doctor of Physical Therapy, is built on the belief that movement is medicine — blending physical therapy, personal training, and small group fitness to support long-term, sustainable health. HEROBOARD PILATES™ is a natural extension of that philosophy, bringing low-impact, precision-driven strength training to a community already committed to moving better and living stronger.
BEATSPACE FITNESS
Beatspace Fitness is a music-driven boutique studio in Fort Collins, Colorado, built on the belief that working out should feel like an experience, not just a routine. As one of the first studios in the world certified in HEROBOARD PILATES™, Beatspace brings intentional, low-impact strength training to a community that already thrives on high-energy, rhythm-fueled movement.
