The Stott Pilates method was developed in the 1980s and is continually refined by Moira Merrithew and Lindsay G. They have spent more than two decades refining the Stott Pilates method, in collaboration with physical therapists, sports medicine and fitness professionals, to ensure it is aligned with current scientific and biomechanical research. Moira Merrithew received her Pilates training from Romana Kryzanowska, a protégé of Joseph Pilates, following her career as a principal dancer with the City Ballet of Toronto and the Atlantic Ballet Company. Lindsay constructed Moira’s first piece of studio equipment called a “Reformer”, because this equipment could not otherwise be obtained. Pilates was very much a cottage industry at the time and access to equipment was very limited. These machines were constructed out of wood. Moira and Lindsay Merrithew recognized that the original equipment designs of Joseph Pilates were not adjustable and the person had to adjust to the machine and not the other way around.
