From Disco to Y2K, Club Pilates Is Throwing It Back with Decades Week

Club Pilates, the world’s largest Pilates brand by number of studios, announced today the debut of Decades Week, the next evolution of the brand’s beloved 80s Week tradition that filled studios with neon, leg warmers, and high-energy playlists. Anchored in the brand’s belief that Pilates is for everybody, Decades Week expands the throwback fun across six iconic eras of music, movement, and self-expression—creating a more inclusive Spirit Week that invites everyone to celebrate, connect, and show up stronger through every era.

Club Pilates introduces Decades Week!

From September 21 through September 26, participating Club Pilates studios across the country will invite members, instructors, and Pilates enthusiasts to celebrate the decade that speaks to them most. Building on the legacy of 80s Week, Decades Week welcomes everybody to join in, however they want to show up.

“We are thrilled to introduce Decades Week to our studios,” says Club Pilates President, Tianna Strateman. “By expanding to Decades Week, we aren’t just adding a nostalgic twist to our classes; we are reinforcing our core belief that Club Pilates is truly for everyBODY. It is inspiring to see our local studios take this vibrant, inclusive energy and extend it outward to unite their communities. No matter which decade moves you most, our mission remains the same: Do Pilates Do Life!”

A Week-Long Celebration, One Decade at a Time

Each day of the week brings a new decade to life, giving members a fresh reason to show up, dress up, and move together:

  • Monday, September 21 – 1960s: Peace, Love & Pilates
  • Tuesday, September 22 – 1970s: Disco & Strength
  • Wednesday, September 23 – 1980s: Big Energy, Bigger Strength
  • Thursday, September 24 – 1990s: Throwback Flow
  • Friday, September 25 – 2000s: Y2K Pilates
  • Saturday, September 26 – Decades Wrap Party: Celebrate Every Era

Members can look forward to celebrating all week long with themed music, raffles, in-studio pop-ups, and more! From peace signs and platform sneakers to Y2K velour and butterfly clips, members are encouraged to dig through their closets, embrace a little nostalgia, and bring their favorite decade to life in class. The celebration will culminate in a Decades Wrap Party, bringing every era together for one final, unforgettable celebration.

Celebrating the Evolution of Pilates

Decades Week is more than a costume contest; it celebrates how far Pilates has come since Joseph Pilates founded it in the 1910s and how it continues to bring people together across generations. By expanding beyond a single decade, Club Pilates is creating more ways for members of every age, background, and style to see themselves in the celebration, while staying true to the community-driven spirit that has always defined the brand’s Spirit Week tradition.

A Story Spanning Generations

That spirit of inclusivity comes to life in studios every day, including for one Club Pilates Teasley Commons family spanning three generations. Ray Stephens is 94 and uses a wheelchair, but that hasn’t stopped him from gaining real mobility, energy, and confidence through private sessions encouraged by his daughter, Ann Poston. Ann then pushed her own daughter, Abby, to try Pilates, and now all three are regulars, with Ann and Abby taking classes together as mother and daughter.

Whether you’re channeling flower power, disco fever, big 80s energy, 90s nostalgia, or Y2K glam, Decades Week is your invitation to move, celebrate, and express yourself one decade at a time.
