Business career
= Stott Pilates
=Lindsay and Moira opened a Pilates studio in their Toronto apartment in 1988, teaching an alternative approach to Pilates focusing on exercises that begin from a neutral spine position and thus involve a different set of movements. Finding it difficult to buy the kind of equipment they needed for their exercises, they decided to design their own.
Lindsay and Moira named their company Stott Pilates, branding the new technique. By 1996, along with the classes and continued development of new techniques, Stott Pilates grew to consist of manufacturing, educational, and video and audio production divisions. Lindsay Merrithew became president and CEO, with Moira serving as executive director of Education.
= Merrithew International Inc.
=Stott Pilates became Merrithew International, Inc. in 2011, with an expansion of five different educational programs, each with a unique set of equipment and techniques.
Merrithew International Inc. continues its training and certification program. Beginning in 1997, Merrithew began producing training videos and teaching manuals incorporating physiotherapy and rehabilitation techniques. Merrithew has executive produced hundreds of videos and DVDs.
In 2022, private equity fund Onex Corporation purchased a majority stake in Merrithew International Inc.
