Reformer Pilates is getting very popular in the UK. Many new studios have opened. BBC Health says the number of businesses grew by almost ten times from 2024 to 2025. Some people worry about safety and quality. They want the government to make clear rules for training and instructors. They also want standards for equipment and classes. Supporters say Pilates can help people feel better, but they want it done in a safe way. More regulation could protect customers and help the industry grow in a healthy way.
