Joseph Pilates lived and studied in New York. During that time, he trained a number of students who devoted their lives to a very important work. He and his wife became teachers of their method and helped a lot of people to improve their health. The first generation of teachers was trained by Joseph Pilates, the researcher of the method and they were often called as the ‘Pilates Elders’. Some of these pupils began training other people without any changes as Joseph Pilates had taught them to do it. This approach is referred to a so called “classical style” of Pilates. Other students went on to integrate system they had learned with their own research and personal experience in sports anatomy and exercise training practices.

Joseph Pilates' New York studio was very popular as a popular dance studio. A lot of dancers visited this studio and he was accepted by a folk dance community. Many dancers and well-known persons of New York were grateful to Pilates’ method training for their health, strength and grace. His exercises were very popular for its rehabilitative effects.

Joseph Pilates was 87 in 1967 but he was full of energy and he demonstrated remarkable physical power for his old years. He smoked cigars, liked parties with drinks and dancing, but he often did exercise breaks wherever he wanted (even in the streets of New York). It was a very good demonstration of importance sport in people’s lives. Clara Pilates continued to teach people and run the studio for another 10 years after his death. Today, Joseph Pilates’ methods are carried on by his pupils, by the Pilates Elders, and by a large group of contemporary teachers all over the world.
