“Done three times a week, a few well-designed movements, properly executed in sequence, are worth hours of calisthenics or contortions! Whatever your fitness level, I’ll help you establish a workout that you’ll truly enjoy. I’m proud of what a lifetime of practicing Pilates has done for me. Now let me show you what Pilates can do for you.”

Romana Kryzanowska

All Pilates Is Not the Same

The popularity of Joseph Pilates's teachings has grown in recent years, and many fitness professionals are now offering pilates-inspired programs, or in some cases combining what they call Pilates with exercises from other training regimens. The True Pilates method is different because it refers to the system of exercises that were originally developed and taught by Joseph Pilates, whose unique training regimen has proven itself for more than 80 years as an effective and safe method of exercise.

Romana Kryzanowska is the world-renowned protégé of Joseph Pilates and has been teaching the method for nearly six decades. Long ago Romana made a commitment to Joe and Clara Pilates to continue their life's work and Romana continues to deliver on that promise today by traveling the world and teaching the next generation of instructors. Romana's daughter, Sari Mejia Santo, also shares her mother's lifelong passion for teaching the Pilates method; she also had the opportunity to train directly with Joseph and Clara Pilates, and has been teaching at Romana's side for over three decades. 

As you continue forward on your Pilates journey, one constant you'll see in the stated credentials of legitimate and self-proclaimed Pilates gurus, is their reference to the training they received from Romana Kryzanowska or her daughter Sari Mejia Santo.

Why learn secondhand when you can train with the best?

Each instructor we work with has been guided, trained and tested directly by Level I Instructors' Romana Kryzanowska, Sari Mejia Santo and Juanita Lopez and have continued their training by attending Continuing Professional Education with Romana, Sari and Juanita once or more each year. When your working with a Romana’s Pilates certified instructor, you can be confident you’re getting quality and experience, not an instructor who achieved certification over the weekend or using a fast track approach.

Romana's Pilates delivers private lessons, instructor training and continuing professional education to students and instructors of the True Pilates Method. Training is available at facilities across Asia, Australia, Europe, North America, South America and Central America; 300+ training facilities worldwide, 200+ in United States.
