Pretty Privilege in Pilates: What No One Talks About
The Pilates industry celebrates wellness, movement, and confidence—but underneath that can lie a quiet bias: pretty privilege. In this episode, we tackle the uncomfortable but necessary conversation around appearance-based advantages in the Pilates world. From social media influence to hiring decisions and client loyalty, we explore how looks can shape careers—and what it means for instructors and studio owners trying to build success based on skill, not aesthetics.
