THE STUDIO
THE PRIVATE PILATES DIFFERENCE
At Private Pilates our goal is to teach the authentic Pilates method as it was initially conceived by Joseph Pilates and we are specialized in private and semi-private instruction in order to provide you personalized attention, which is not available in a large-group format.
We are a fully-equipped studio offering Gratz apparatus (handmade in Usa), the best of the Pilates industry, and we follow the unrivalled teacher training program Romana’s Pilates.
Giulia, the founder and owner of Private Pilates, is a Romana’s Pilates certificated instructor and she is trained on all pieces of equipment at all levels, both practically and theoretically. Giulia has undergone the most rigorous training and certification programs in the industry. Where others memorize routines or choreography and certify over a weekend, Romana’s Pilates trainee teachers must reach an advanced level in their own training and pass both practical and written exams before becoming fully certified.
Giulia continues developing her skills with continuing professional education throughout the year. She regularly attends workshops and conferences all around the world. Again, there is a difference.
