GLOBAL OPERATIONS FRANCESC COS MORERA, PhD Peak Pilates Distributor, Spain Physical Strength Trainer, F.C. Barcelona ® How did you become a Peak Pilates distributor? ® My wife and I went through the Peak Pilates education program 10 years ago. We were so impressed with the quality of the program and equipment that we wanted to begin offering this in our country of Spain. Soon after we completed the training, I came on board as a distributor. What opportunities does being a distributor open up to you? I’ve had the opportunity to meet people from all over the world, attend conventions and really feel like a part of the Peak Pilates community. The U.S. and Spain are very different, but it’s amazing how much the two have in common – the people, the theme, the networking. I am thankful to work with a business partner that holds education and equipment to the highest standards. Do you still teach Pilates? As a phy sical trainer for athletes/ clients, Peak Pilates is a great tool for physical training and core strengthening that I incorporate in my daily workouts. GLOBAL HEADQUARTERS & LOCATIONS The Peak Pilates program is truly global. Our global headquarters are in Venice, California with locations in Rancho Dominguez, California, Boulder, Colorado and Maassluis, Netherlands. ® MANUFACTURING Our extensive line of wood products are hand-crafted in our manufacturing facility in Boulder, Colorado, and built to the highest quality of industry standards.
