Jamie Skuse

Comprehensively Certified Pilates Instructor, Owner CP Bend
Jamie has been a member of Club Pilates since spring of 2017. She joined after trying to find a workout that would strengthen her bones after intense chemotherapy and help the aches and pains, especially in her hips. She is a two time breast cancer survivor. First diagnosis was in 2012 with Triple Negative Breast Cancer of which she had 3 types of chemo and 34 rounds of radiation. Then at the end of 2019, 6 tumors were found on her yearly ultrasound and 3 of those tumors were hormone positive breast cancer. It was necessary at that point to have a double mastectomy without reconstruction. Pilates has meant so much to her and she was so grateful there was a CP studio in Bend, as that was one of her “requirements” when she moved here spring of 2019 from Reno, NV. After surgery she had to re-learn how to use and move her upper body, maintain mobility, as well as gain feeling back in her chest. It was a mix of frustration and growth! Club Pilates has been such a passion and she has loved watching this Bend CP studio grow and thrive! Jamie decided in February of 2022 to do the teacher training and found she loved teaching so much. As a former first grade and special ed teacher, teaching is a passion. A full circle moment happened in October 2025 when Jamie and her husband purchased this studio and became owners of something she is so passionate about. The Club Pilates Bend studio is home! Jamie’s husband, as well as her 3 amazing older teen/adult children , are thriving in the community with skiing, surfing, golfing, travel, cooking and social activism. Jamie looks forward to seeing you either in her classes or in our studio, or when she takes classes herself with the amazing instructors at Club Pilates Bend!
