meet roxanne
Roxanne Saldana is the founder of Powerhouse Pilates and a comprehensively certified classical Pilates instructor through Romana’s Pilates (2016). Her training is rooted in the original method, passed down through Romana Kryzanowska, a direct protégé of Joseph Pilates, and continues to be shaped by ongoing mentorship with highly respected teachers in the field.
Before Pilates, Roxanne spent years as a professional ballet dancer with Ballet Manila in the Philippines, where she developed a deep understanding of movement, precision, and control—qualities that now define her teaching.
Roxanne is known for her highly attentive, detail-oriented approach. Her sessions are both technical and intuitive, focusing on how the body works as a whole rather than isolating individual muscles. She meets each client where they are, using the classical system and method to build strength, improve movement patterns, and create lasting, meaningful progress.
Clients often notice improved posture, a stronger core connection, and a deeper awareness of how their body moves both in and out of the studio. Roxanne works especially well with those who want a more thoughtful, technical approach—whether you’re new to Pilates or looking to deepen your practice.
Since opening Powerhouse Pilates in 2021, Roxanne has grown the studio into a dedicated space for classical Pilates, with a focus on personalized attention, thoughtful programming, and a supportive environment for all levels.
Whether you’re brand new or looking to deepen your practice, working with Roxanne offers a deeper understanding of your body—and a stronger, more connected way of moving.
