EQUIPMENT

We maintain the essence of authentic Pilates and stay true to the original method of Joseph Pilates through our certification in Romana's Pilates. The studio is fully-equipped with Gratz Pilates apparatus, as we strongly believe that practicing and teaching on Gratz apparatus is a more efficient way in teaching the original method. Once you know the original Pilates System, just follow your intuition and experience to pick up the right apparatus and the Pilates method will come naturally! So easy, so simple, and so true!

Gratz is the only apparatus that stays true to Joe’s original dimensions and spring tensions, and it is the perfect size that helps to adapt each and every kind of bodies. The handles and spring gives you the right tension, and pulls up or down with different angles that magically gives you the perfect shape and resistance require to feel exercise in the deepest way. If you know the whole system, you will understand that it is perfect and ALWAYS works!
