Balanced Body® has successfully concluded its highly anticipated Pilates On Tour London event, bringing together a vibrant community of Pilates professionals, educators and studio owners for a dynamic weekend of education, innovation and connection in the UK capital, made even more significant as the company celebrates its 50th anniversary.

Hosted at Convene 155, Bishopsgate, the event delivered an immersive programme of workshops, lectures and hands-on sessions led by world renowned subject expert Presenters. Attendees explored the latest developments in Pilates practice, from movement science and rehabilitation to business strategy and programming, reinforcing Balanced Body’s commitment to advancing the industry through education and excellence, values that have defined the brand over the past five decades.

Pilates On Tour London welcomed participants from across the UK and Europe, creating a collaborative environment where instructors of all levels could deepen their knowledge, refine their skills and engage with like-minded professionals. The event also provided a valuable platform for networking, enabling attendees to exchange ideas, share experiences and build lasting professional relationships.

“We were thrilled to bring Pilates On Tour back to London during such a milestone year for Balanced Body,” said Ken Endelman, CEO & Founder of Balanced Body. “Celebrating 50 years of innovation with our global community made this event especially meaningful. The energy, curiosity and passion in every session truly reflected the strength and continued evolution of the Pilates industry.”

The comprehensive workshop schedule covered a wide range of topics, including functional movement, injury prevention, athletic conditioning and innovative uses of Pilates equipment. Participants also had the opportunity to experience Balanced Body’s industry-leading apparatus first-hand, gaining practical insights into how equipment can enhance both teaching and client outcomes.

Feedback from attendees highlighted the event’s impact, with many praising the depth of education, the calibre of presenters and the opportunity to connect with a global network of professionals. As Balanced Body marks its 50th anniversary, the success of the London event underscores the brand’s enduring influence and leadership within the Pilates industry.

“Pilates On Tour is about more than education, it’s about community,” added Balanced Body Director of Education, Joy Puleo,  “Celebrating this milestone year alongside instructors who are shaping the future of Pilates made London truly unforgettable.”

Following the success of the London event, Balanced Body remains committed to expanding access to high-quality Pilates education worldwide through its ongoing Pilates On Tour series and comprehensive Balanced Body Education® programmes, continuing its mission into the next 50 years.

Testimonial
" Every Studio we’ve opened since 2007, we’ve equipped with Balanced Body Reformers - including our new Kings Cross flagship studio. There are good reasons why they remain our brand of choice. One, the relationship we have with Ken, and the Balanced Body team. And two, the equipment you use says a lot about you as a brand. They’re not cheap but you absolutely get what you pay for. Their reformers are rock solid, easy to adjust and practically indestructible - despite some of our clients’ best efforts!"
– Justin Rogers, Creative Director, Ten Health & Fitness
Testimonial
Balanced Body equipment was essential in providing LifeTime customers with premium Pilates experiences. They are exceptional in terms of quality, timeliness, and customer service. Our account manager provided on-time consultation, equipment, and parts delivery for our 200+ locations. Balanced Body even customized a reformer to meet the needs of our discerning Pilates instructors! I highly recommend Balanced Body as the best Pilates partner.
– Eduardo Perez, consultant, Pilates club industry and former Director of Pilates, LifeTime Inc
