about us

Nancy-Hodari Welcome to Equilibrium Studio. My goal is to have you step into a beautiful and energizing space where you can escape from reality and spend an hour or two focusing on your inner and outer health and fitness. I know you have many choices for your exercise programming, and I feel honored when people choose Equilibrium. My team and I strive to not only meet your expectations, but to exceed them.

You will be welcomed warmly , even if you don’t know much about Pilates or fitness. Whether you are enjoying  a cup of green tea, filtered water, or a yummy sesame snack in the serene and sophisticated lobby of Studio G, or the colorful and artistic lobby of Studio H, or you are enjoying a workout in the largest pilates equipment studio in the midwest, or doing cardio circuit training or tabata workouts in our newest state of the art cardio studio that opened in 2012, or experiencing the #1 barre workout in the country, in our fully equipped studio for Xtend Barre,  you will feel at home.

Equilibrium instructors are the best in the Midwest, and all are expertly trained and certified. They are also friendly, approachable and willing to help you in any way they can. Equilibrium’s mission is to empower people to lead a healthier and happier lifestyle through Pilates and the top fitness classes in the country, including Xtend Barre, TRX, and Cardio Circuit Training.

My philosophy is fitness should be fun. The environment at Equilibrium is one of encouragement and lightheartedness. I want every person to leave feeling a little taller, a little stronger, and of course, happier.

Equilibrium’s mission has not changed since our doors opened in 1997, and I am extremely grateful to the staff, clients and friends who have helped make Equilibrium not only a state of mind, but also a home away from home for the many people who walk through our doors every day.

In good health,

Nancy Hodari, Owner and Director of Education Programs
and Oliver, Studio Watchdog
