Community Spotlight: The Pilates Journal Expo

As promised in my first newsletter, I'll regularly be featuring either a wellness business making a difference or a non-profit organization doing good in the world.

This month, I'm thrilled to spotlight The Pilates Journal and their upcoming Expo!

Growing our Pilates community is something I'm deeply passionate about. One of the things I love most about The Pilates Journal is its inclusive approach – teachers from all training backgrounds and methodologies are featured and celebrated. It's a platform that truly showcases the diversity and richness of our profession: business strategies for starting and growing your studio, professional development to become a better teacher, cutting-edge research (like my monthly column!), innovative exercise ideas, and emerging trends in the industry.

This commitment to our entire community is beautifully reflected in their upcoming events!

January 10–11, 2026 | Huntington Beach, California

February 21-22 | Sydney, Australia

Join the global Pilates community for two inspiring days of movement, education, and connection. This is your opportunity to dive into next-level education that sharpens your skills and expands your impact.

What You'll Experience:

Transformative Learning: Access 30+ hands-on workshops led by world-class educators. Learn new Pilates techniques, teaching methods, and insights that challenge, inspire, and elevate your practice. Sessions cover Reformer, Mat, and Equipment – giving you fresh ideas and real tools to take home.

Business Excellence: Gain practical strategies from industry leaders in specialized business panels. Whether you're launching your first studio or growing an established practice, you'll leave with actionable insights.

Community & Connection: This is the heart of it all! Enjoy catering throughout the event and evening networking drinks by the beautiful California coast. These moments of genuine connection with fellow Pilates professionals often spark the most meaningful collaborations and lasting friendships.

A Special Touch: I'm excited to share that my new book, Pilates for Rehabilitation 2nd Edition, will be given away as a prize during sessions, and each participant will receive a bookmark in their swag bag (at the LA event)!

While I wish I could be there for this awesome event, I'll be honoring a prior teaching commitment in beautiful Costa Rica for the month of January.It's bittersweet – I love being part of these community gatherings, but I'm thrilled knowing so many of you will experience the energy, learning, and connections this expo promises.

Please soak it all in and tell me all about it!Let's continue building our inclusive Pilates community – whether we're gathered by the California coast, teaching in the rainforest, or connecting from anywhere in the world.
