Happy Birthday, Joseph Pilates! 🎉

Today, we honor the visionary who championed whole-body health, breath, and mindful control... principles that continue to shape and inspire our global Pilates community.

Joe’s legacy lives on every time we move with intention, curiosity, and care. 🕊️

In celebration, we’re sharing a special episode of the Pilates Perspectives podcast. Join Karen Frischmann and Joy Puleo as they explore how we can embrace every expression of Pilates—Classical, Contemporary, and everything in between—while staying true to Joe’s original vision. They offer thoughtful, practical ways instructors and movers can stay rooted in the method’s foundations without rigidity, keeping the work relevant and powerful for every body.

Tune in and honor the legacy that started it all 🎧

Well, this certainly sounds promising!! 🤞🤞🤞

On 19 June 2025, the PHI 51/25 Private Health Insurance Legislation Amendment Rules (No. 5) 2025 were issued, which removed the constraints on private health funds paying rebates for Pilates.
Whilst the limitation is being lifted from July 1, it is likely to be at least a few months before this is made available for our clients. We are deep in discussion with the health fund associations and some of the private health funds as to what exactly they will be covering. We will be providing regular updates on progress.

I hope you're all keen to get back into some regular exercise. Too much Xmas food and alcohol doesn't make you feel good. Exercise does! I hope this two week break has allowed you to recharge and help with muscle recovery but now it's time to re-start. See you on Monday!!!
