GRATZ PILATES
We’re proud to partner with Gratz Pilates as the Exclusive Equipment Partner for the U.S. Pilates 2026 Classical Pilates USA Symposium.
From Reformers and Cadillacs to Chairs, Barrels, and Accessories, Gratz is equipping the Symposium, supporting the work as it is taught, practiced, and carried forward within the Classical system.
Attendees will move through a range of apparatus in small group settings, learning directly from Second Generation instructors while engaging with the work in its intended form.
Gratz Apparatus will be available for pre-sale, offering a rare opportunity to bring this experience into your own studio. Registered attendees would receive 10% off their Gratz order, along with split shipping costs through a consolidated order.
If you are interested, please email nater@gratzpilates.com. Nate will assist with creating your order and providing any additional details needed.
Gratz Pilates is thrilled to be part of this year’s Classical Pilates USA Symposium!
