The Pilates Journal Expo will be held in Sydney from 21st to 22nd February 2026, bringing together some of the world’s most respected names in Pilates for two unmissable days of innovation, education, and industry insight.

For the first time ever, internationally renowned educator Maria Leone will present in Australia, headlining the event in Sydney. Leone is the founder of Bodyline, the longest- standing Pilates studio in Los Angeles, and has spent more than three decades teaching, training, and mentoring Pilates professionals around the world. Her integrative teaching draws from her background in professional dance, tae kwon do, and yoga, and her clients include A-list actor Jennifer Aniston and champion surfer Maya Gabeira.

This landmark weekend will bring together leading thinkers and innovators to shape the future of Pilates through expert-led workshops, dynamic business panels, and a vibrant industry expo. The event is designed for Pilates professionals, educators, and anyone passionate about movement and wellness.

Whether you're a seasoned studio owner or simply passionate about Pilates, this event promises to elevate your thinking, deepen your practice, and expand your professional network.

CJ Zarb, Founder of The Pilates Journal shared “this is more than an expo - it’s a meeting of minds.

“Bringing Maria Leone to Sydney is a moment years in the making. It’s a chance for our local industry to learn from the best, connect, and move the profession forward - together.”
