Body Harmonics Pilates, located in Toronto, Canada is an
internationally recognized leader in Pilates training and
instruction. It was founded in 1996 by Margot McKinnon, a well
respected leader in the Canadian health and fitness industry.
What distinguishes Body Harmonics from other studios is that it
also functions as a Pilates teacher training facility. The
primary motivation behind the establishment of Body Harmonics
was to make Pilates accessible to everyone, and to train the
next generation of teachers in the best practices available.
Body Harmonics has three main areas of specialization; Pilates
for general health and wellbeing, post-rehabilitative exercise,
and performance enhancements for athletes and dancers. They
offer over 40 courses to new and experienced students and
teachers alike. They offer three levels of Mat training, and
extensive workshops dedicated to individual pieces of equipment
such as the Reformer and the Cadillac. Body Harmonics has
trained Pilates instructors from all around the world, and
remains one the best facilities of its kind in Canada and beyond.
Studio director, Margot McKinnon, has a long and proven track
record as an educator and a top-notch Pilates instructor. She
has worked as a Pilates instructor since 1994, when she earned
her first certification. She became a Master Teacher Trainer for
The Pilates Method in 1996, and shortly thereafter launched her
company. She has had the benefit of training and developing
relationships with some the best and brightest mind in her
industry. Margot is renowned for her inspiring teaching style,
and her intricate knowledge of the theory behind the practice of
Pilates.
Aside from the standard courses offered at Body Harmonics, there
are also a number of specialized courses designed for people
that might not associate Pilates training with other sports.
Body Harmonics offers courses of particular interest to golfers,
skiers, runners and rowers. They also offer courses for other
health care practitioners, such as physiotherapists, osteopaths,
and chiropractors. Regardless of your area of specialization,
there is no doubt that you can benefit from the mind/body
connection you will make at Body Harmonics. If you are serious
