Reformer Classes Available
The Classical Mat
Pure Pilates, No Frills
A dynamic, flowing sequence that fires up your core, tones every muscle, and boosts your energy — just as Joseph Pilates intended. Using only your body and the Mat, this class builds deep strength, control, and alignment from the inside out. Modifications are offered to meet you where you are, so every body gets a powerful, personalised workout. Consistent practice on the Mat sharpens technique, enhances body awareness, and supports everything you do — in and out of the studio. Simple. Strong. Seriously effective.

This authentic full-body workout follows the complete classical Pilates routine on the Reformer machine, designed to enhance core strength, flexibility, and posture. With personalised corrections and focused attention to form, each session ensures optimal results in a small-group environment.

What is this method?
Pilates is a low-impact exercise designed to strengthen muscles while stretching, improving postural alignment and balance. Pilates is a mixture of strengthening exercises with the many hundreds of moves concentrating on muscle development in the body, emphasising core strength. This technique helps not only to improve general fitness but overall well-being.

Danile Granato
Teacher and founder
After teaching Pilates in various studios for several years, I founded The Authentic Pilates Studio in 2008. Balancing a career and family was both rewarding and challenging, so after selling the business in 2017, I took a few sabbatical years, which extended until September 2021 due to the pandemic.
Driven by a deep passion for inspiring healthier living, I launched a unique wellness boutique in SW London—Classical Pilates & Physio Clinic. My heart and soul are fully dedicated to sharing the Contrology method created by Joseph Pilates, as I pursue my dream of spreading his incredible legacy to as many people as possible.
I look forward to meeting you in person. Come and experience the studio—where movement comes to life.
