TheMethodPilates is the name associated with the evolution of The Method which is what clients called Joe’s work when he was alive. Eve Gentry, his first teacher, taught for him until his death in 1967 and the following year she moved to Santa Fe and opened up a Pilates Studio on Camino de la Luz. This began the first evolution of the technique which was refined in 1991 when Eve and others– including all those now called The Elders– Ron Fletcher, Romana, Bruce King, Carola Trier, Kathy Grant, Mary Bowen– were part of the first Advisory Board of the Institute for the Pilates Method. Later, in 1996 when the Institute’s name was changed to PhysicalMind Institute, a new group of advisors participated as part of the Working Board which included Rael Isacovitz, Amy Alpers, Jillian Hessel, Michele Larsson, Karma Kinszler, Deborah Lessen. Today another team ensures continued growth of The Method. This evolution of the work that Joe created almost a century ago is what we believe he would have undertaken had he lived into the 21^st Century.
