Where Strength Training Meets Pilates
Merus is a mat-based strength and Pilates platform built for real life - all you need is yourself and a mat. Every workout blends classical Pilates principles - core connection, elongation, control - with functional strength training, so you build a body that moves well and feels strong doing it.
The platform and tailored workouts are created by Andrea Speir, a classically certified Pilates instructor with 22 years of teaching experience in both Pilates and personal training.

Strength Workouts Tailored for Perimenopause
Your body changes in your 40s, and most workouts don't change with it. The Merus perimenopause programming is built around what actually helps: strength training to protect bone density and muscle mass, low-impact movement that respects your joints, sleep and energy, and Pilates-based core work that keeps you stable and strong.
A 28-day perimenopause plan is included.
