STOTT PILATES® Launches Flagship Toronto Studio & Global Academy
Merrithew®, the global leader in Pilates education, has announced the January 2026 opening of the new STOTT PILATES® Studio & Academy in Toronto’s iconic Yorkville neighborhood. Serving as both a premier studio and the brand’s global hub for education and innovation, the flagship will welcome clients while advancing instructor training worldwide.
“With our new flagship studio and STOTT PILATES® Academy in Toronto, we’re building Merrithew’s global hub for innovation in movement,” said Jim Heidenreich, CEO of Merrithew. “It’s where we’ll test and refine new programming, train the best instructors, and define how Pilates supports performance, recovery, and lifelong health before sharing those insights worldwide.”
As the birthplace of the STOTT PILATES® method, Toronto will once again be at the heart of shaping how Pilates evolves—bridging tradition with forward-thinking approaches in education, practice, and global community.
The Studio also introduces a first-of-its-kind membership model, offering unlimited access to both mat and Reformer classes under one plan, setting a new benchmark for accessibility and value.
