History of Joseph H. Pilates
When Mr. Joseph Pilates passed away in 1967, he left no will and had designated no line of succession for the "Pilates" work to carry on. Nevertheless, his work would remain. However, in the 1970’s Hollywood celebrities discovered Pilates via Ron Fletcher's studio in Beverly Hills and wherever the stars go, the media follows. In the late 1980s, the media began to cover Pilates extensively. The public took note, and the Pilates business boomed. Today, over 10 million Americans practice Pilates, and the numbers continue to grow. Learn more about the story of this pioneer.
