Our purpose as a company is to change the way the world works out. At Studio Pilates International®, we believe that exercise should be inspiring, intense, safe, and it should be done in style. Here are some of our beliefs.

 

Exercise should be inspiring – We believe that a Pilates class should have a pulse. We believe that when you feel the energy in your class, you’ll burn more calories and get greater results. This is why you will find high energy music, combined with encouraging and uplifting instructors at all of our studios. Our instructors will always be supporting you, motivating you and pushing you to the next level. It’s in our DNA.

 

Exercise should be intense – We believe that you should feel every muscle in your body working when you do a Pilates class and you should feel your muscles burning. This is why Studio Pilates® gets incredible results, and why you’ll feel shaky and fatigued, yet incredibly energized, after each and every class. We want you to feel that burn.

 

Exercise should be safe – We believe that exercise should strengthen the body from the inside out, making you leaner, stronger and ready to tackle anything that life throws at you. The safety of our members is our number one priority and this focus is infused in everything that we do.

We insist that all of our instructors have extensive Studio Pilates International® training and have studied under the supervision of our team of physiotherapists. This is also why you’ll find that our instructors will help, monitor and assist you with every move in your class.

 

Everyone everywhere should be doing Pilates – For too long, Pilates studio classes have been the exclusive domain of Hollywood celebrities and society’s elite. Our aim is to change all of this. We believe that everyone everywhere should have access to world-class Pilates workouts.

 

A Pilates class should be simple to follow and achievable for all – We believe that everyone, from the first time exerciser to an elite athlete, should be able to do a Pilates class and it should be an uplifting and enjoyable experience.

We believe that the movements that you perform in a Pilates class, should be straightforward and extremely effective. We believe that you should feel empowered after a Pilates class and not baffled by it.

 

Our instructors are the heart, soul, and core of our business – We believe that our instructors are the core of our business and the unique experience that our rock star instructors provide, is the sole reason why our members become addicted to what we do.

 

We are in the business of changing lives – As instructors, we consider ourselves blessed to have the opportunity to be able to change people’s lives through what we do.

We believe that by feeling stronger, more empowered and more confident, your body will be transformed and so will your life.  We realize that each person’s fitness and wellness journey is unique, and we believe in supporting you through every step of yours.

 

The world deserves a better way to work out – We believe that the world deserves a better Pilates workout experience. This is what we focus on providing, and this will always continue to be our focus, now, and in the future.
