A century of controlled movement.
Pilates began with Joseph Pilates — a German-born nurse and anatomist who, while rehabilitating injured soldiers during WWI, rigged springs to hospital beds. That idea became the reformer, and his method — controlled movement, balance, body awareness — is the practice taught in every studio today.
That’s the method. Here’s the brand you’ll represent every day — who Club Pilates is for, and what makes a class here different.
