The Big Picture
East River Pilates has grown from a rooftop pop-up into five founder-owned Brooklyn studios without a dollar of outside money. The business now spans an online class platform and a teacher-training program co-run with a physical therapist, though at this size it has little public labor or environmental track record to date. It answers to one person: its founder.
