Merrithew's Toronto Flagship Reopens in 2026 as Global Stott Pilates Hub
Merrithew is set to reopen its Toronto flagship studio in January 2026, transforming it into the global entry for Stott Pilates innovation. The studio will offer a range of services and features, with Jim Heidenreich, CEO of Merrithew, at the helm.
The revamped studio will house the Stott Pilates Academy, a contemporary evolution of Joseph Pilates' original method. It integrates modern exercise science and rehabilitation principles. Members can expect unlimited mat and reformer classes under a single membership plan, along with access to assessments and private sessions.
The studio will boast high-end reformers and purpose-built classrooms for instructor training. Awaiting its opening, a waitlist has been created. Additionally, Merrithew plans to launch a speaker series in early 2026, inviting international thought leaders and in-house experts to share their knowledge.
The renewed Toronto flagship studio promises to be a global epicenter for Stott Pilates, offering state-of-the-art facilities and a wealth of learning opportunities. With Jim Heidenreich leading the charge, the studio's reopening in January 2026 is highly anticipated.
