Clinics offering therapeutic or rehabilitative Pilates can register with CPMS for national listing, professional recognition, and grant program eligibility

$299/year
The Canadian Pilates Method Society invites clinics integrating Pilates into their therapeutic and wellness practices to unite in elevating the standard of Pilates education and care across Canada. By joining our society, you become part of a collaborative network dedicated to promoting evidence-informed practice, professional development, and community connection, thus ensuring Pilates continues to evolve as a trusted method for rehabilitation, performance, and lifelong movement.

Clinic Registration

While both environments utilize the Pilates method, the primary difference lies in the clinical vs. lifestyle focus. A Pilates Studio is a dedicated space for movement mastery, holistic wellness, and athletic progression led by certified Pilates specialists. In contrast, a Clinic that offers Pilates typically integrates the method into a rehabilitative or medical framework, such as Physiotherapy or Chiropractic care, where the focus is on treating a specific injury or clinical pathology under a medical license.

• Studio instructors are experts in the Pilates Method and its complete system.

• Clinic practitioners are experts in Pathology and use Pilates as one of many tools in their kit.

Studio Versus Clinic

Building a more inclusive community starts with accessibility. The CPMS is currently working towards the launch of our Rural Equipment Grant, offering $5,000 to help practitioners bring a full repertoire of Pilates equipment to rural Canada. Help us bridge the gap and grow the Pilates method nationwide by supporting our fundraising efforts.
