About Us

Our mission is one of self-compassion and community coregulation.

 

Power Plus Wellness builds trusted relationships with value-aligned partners to offer private classes with a plus-size focus. 

We are a Latina-owned boutique event company that curates life-enhancing movement and immersive wellness experiences for folx in big bodies to jiggle freely, fly with silks, unlearn diet culture, and joyfully exist together.

 

Our offerings free minds, bodies, and hearts from perceived limitations.

Our Pillars

Inclusivity welcomes all.

Our mission starts with cultivating a safe space for plus-size bodies to move, 

respecting the inherent diversity of our community.

​

Actions that foster inclusion, belonging, equity, and access include vetting studios/instructors for implicit biases, ensuring size-inclusive equipment,  providing financial options like tiered pricing, sponsored tickets, pay-what-you-wish offerings, and more.

Knowledge empowers change.

Reputable yet rarely cited studies show

weight stigma in wellness and weight-centered healthcare negatively impacts health, longevity, and quality of life across all body sizes.

 

We regularly share and cite the work of

non-biased medical professionals, activists, and subject matter experts on how to recognize and combat internal, external, and systemic weight stigma

Options cultivate safety.

We offer life-enhancing movement options with an emphasis on accessibility and modifications. Some movement offerings include aqua aerobics, aerial yoga, reformer Pilates, and strength-training.

​

Non-movement based wellness offerings include panel talks with subject matter experts, private meet-ups at cultural events, monthly virtual support groups, and more.

Community builds confidence.

A wide range of research shows positive relationships are resource-building bonds that profoundly impact physical and mental wellness and longevity.

​

We pride ourselves on cultivating loving, open-minded, judgment-free, trauma-informed, weight-neutral, body-curious environments for a wide array of humans to thrive within.
