LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, November 10, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The Pilates Journal Expo returns to Southern California from January 15–17, 2027, at The Waterfront Beach Resort, a Hilton Hotel. Following its sold-out 2026 Huntington Beach event, the Expo will bring together Pilates instructors, studio owners, educators and brands for three days of hands-on education, business discussions and networking.

Hands-on education for Pilates professionals

The weekend program features educators including Tracey Mallett, Maria Leone, Laura Hanlon, Maria Bardet. Sessions explore the art of teaching, classical and contemporary approaches, advanced Reformer work and connections across the Mat, Reformer and Chair repertoire.
A dedicated day for studio owners

Friday’s Studio Owner Forum is dedicated to attracting and retaining clients, improving studio profitability and building a strong team. Over the weekend, the Merrithew^® Leadership Stage will host discussions on where the Pilates market is headed, how hybrid studios operate, how retail can generate revenue and when it makes sense to franchise or stay boutique.

“A studio owner might come to rethink how they build their team. An instructor might leave with a fresh way to teach a familiar exercise or a clearer idea of where they want to go in their career. Bringing those conversations together is what makes the Expo valuable,” said CJ Zarb, founder and editor-in-chief of The Pilates Journal.

Equipment and brands in the Expo Hall

Attendees can explore equipment, accessories and business tools from brands including Balanced Body, Merrithew, Technogym, Club Pilates, WeGym, Naboso, Human Reformer, Bala, Mariana Tek, Momence and Stakt. On Saturday, attendees exploring franchise ownership can meet operators including Club Pilates, BODYBAR Pilates and KX Pilates at Franchise Row.
