Why Us
Faith Pilates is an invitation to return to your body.
Nestled in the heart of Glebe, Sydney, we are a boutique private Pilates studio specialising in the most authentic form of Pilates — a precise, time-tested system closely aligned with Joseph Pilates’ original work.
The original method, taught with integrity.​
To our knowledge, we are the only studio in Glebe teaching this method in its authentic, complete form.​
Classical Pilates has transformed our own bodies over time.
This it not through repetition or intensity, but through clarity of movement, structured development, and respect for how the human body is designed to function.
​
Our intention is simple: to support individuals of all ages, backgrounds, and physical conditions in reconnecting with their body’s full potential through the true Pilates method and to guide each person toward greater strength, balance, and awareness.​​
Training the body as a whole.
At our studio, Pilates is taught as a method, not just a series of exercises.
Classical Pilates is a complete system that develops the body over time, with each session building on the last to improve organisation, strength, and balance.
Our teaching focuses on how the body moves, not just what it does.
Rather than isolating individual muscles, the method develops the body as an integrated system; supporting alignment, coordination, and more efficient movement.
Over time, clients often notice changes not only in strength and posture, but in how their body functions as a whole, with more balance, resilience, and ease.
The complete system.
In Classical Pilates, the apparatus supports the method and enhances how the body experiences the work, providing feedback, challenge, and assistance where needed.​ Our studio is fully equipped with the original Classical apparatus.
This includes the Reformer, Cadillac, Chairs, and Spine Correctors, all sourced from Gratz Industries, the original manufacturer of Joseph Pilates’ designs.
Built to his exact specifications, this equipment preserves the intended dimensions and spring tensions.​
​
Why this matters:
-
Accurate spring tension provides clear, consistent feedback
-
Correct dimensions support natural alignment and efficiency
-
Movements feel precise, purposeful, and balanced​​​​
Faith is a fun and energetic instructor who brings care and focus to every session. I am a huge fan of Classical Pilates and Faith is a dedicated advocate. Her studio is fully equipped and each visit is personally targeted to accommodate individual needs.
