"Change happens through movement, and movement heals" Joseph Pilates
Classical Pilates
The Pilates Method is a system of movement exercises invented by German athlete Joseph H. Pilates in the beginning of 20th century. It’s main focus is on the core postural and deep abdominal muscles to support the spine and to align the body. Working on specifically designed apparatus, this technique uses the resistance/control of the springs to strengthen, stretch and balance the body. Classical Pilates is an efficient method to recover from and prevent injury, increase joint range of motion, circulation, improve posture, coordination and body awareness.
Pilates is ideal for dancers, athletes and musicians to improve technique and performance and for absolute beginners, Prenatal and Postnatal, young and old to develop functional fitness for daily life.
ROMANA'S PILATES
I was trained in the Authentic Pilates Method at The Pilates Studio – International Certification Center, under the guidance of my esteemed teachers Marjoerie Oron and Jane Poerwoatmodjo. I earned my certification from world-renowned teachers Sari Mejia-Santo and the legendary Romana Kryzanowska—the protégé of Joseph H. Pilates himself.
Their commitment to preserving and passing on Joseph Pilates’ original method continues to this day, and I’m honoured to have studied directly under their mentorship.
These personalized sessions are tailored to your individual needs, taking into account your body type, age, gender, lifestyle, fitness level, and any specific conditions or injuries. Using classical Pilates apparatus (Reformer, Tower) alongside mat work, you’ll learn to:
