Sean Gallagher, Elaine Ewing, Sean Gallagher’s Pilates Archive™, and the Pilates Source® have conducted extensive research on pilates history and are often first to present many historical findings that were previously unknown to the pilates community. It is the Pilates Source® belief that pilates teachers are stronger at what they do by understanding the full history behind what it is they teach and practice. Our goal with The Pilates History Research Archive™ is to broaden the understanding of pilates history with primary source documentation that extends far beyond simply exercise, but rather, a lifestyle and lifetime of work, known as Joe’s Contrology®.
