NEW YORK - Nyenta -- Ken Pilates, the Pilates company founded by dancer and Pilates educator Kennyth Montes de Oca, will celebrate the grand opening of its Chelsea flagship on Friday, November 20, 2026. The studio, at 541 6th Ave, Floor 4, in Manhattan (between 14th and 15th Streets), opens its doors to the public with a free open house from 7 to 10 PM. Opening Weekend classes follow on Sunday, November 22, 2026.

Ken Pilates Chelsea has two rooms. The heated room runs Hot Mat Sculpt and Hot Mat Pilates with infrared heat up to 105 degrees. The Tower Room is built around wall-mounted spring towers, where SpringSculpt and Sculpt & Strength classes train the body standing up against loaded springs. Ken Pilates is popularizing tower Pilates as athletic strength training: tower work taught at full intensity, in a room capped at 15 guests.

"Tower Pilates has been treated like a quiet, gentle add-on for too long," said Kennyth Montes de Oca, founder of Ken Pilates. "We built a strength room around it. The tower is where this studio trains hardest, and Chelsea is where we show the city what it can be."
