Our Journey

With more than 15 years of experience in Physiotherapy and over a decade as a Pilates Therapist, Ariana Blackwood is well aware of the advantages that Pilates provides.

This understanding led Ariana to spearhead the development of large-scale Reformer Pilates classes in San Francisco, and together with her team, Core And More Health Physiotherapy & Pilates established itself as the leading destination for health-oriented Pilates solutions catering to individuals of all ages.

However, what about the rest of the country, not to mention those who find it challenging to accommodate a studio class schedule?

Given that the Pilates equipment market is mainly controlled by international brands that dominate distribution, impose high prices, and offer inadequate customer support, we believed there must be a more effective way. The market required a disruption, and in 2019, Core And More Pilates Equipment became the first independent distributor of Pilates equipment across the USA—prioritizing affordability, accessibility, and exceptional customer service for everyday Pilates enthusiasts and aspiring studio owners.

To further support this initiative and employing the same strategy that has made Core And More’s in-studio experience so successful, you can now buy a reformer for home use and participate in virtual in-studio classes or explore our comprehensive library of On-Demand classes tailored to meet your needs!

Our On-Demand studio now features over 300 classes with 6 different instructors, each presenting a unique ‘style’ of Machine Pilates, allowing you to discover precisely what fits and works best for you!
