Meet the Team

Our instructors bring a rare level of expertise shaped by depth, discipline, and respect for the original Classical Pilates method.

We work exclusively with instructors trained in Romana’s Pilates®, the authentic Classical method passed down directly from Joseph Pilates through his protégé, Romana Kryzanowska. This lineage preserves Pilates as it was originally intended; precise, intelligent, and deeply effective. This method is widely recognised as the closest continuation of Joseph Pilates’ original work.

Training follows a rigorous apprenticeship pathway that emphasises observation, practice, and hands-on teaching across the complete Pilates system. Entry into this training requires demonstrated physical proficiency, ensuring the body understands the work, not just the theory behind it.

Many who undertake this training are already certified instructors in other Pilates systems. They turn to Classical Pilates as a foundational method, not as an add-on certification, but as a long-term discipline that continues to shape how the body moves, teaches, and evolves over a lifetime. Our instructors don’t simply teach Pilates. They live it, embody it, and pass it on with care, precision, and respect for the human body.
