Cynthia Lochard's Pilates Method Studio

Our studio is dedicated to servicing those at all fitness levels, from the general public to profess Romana Kryzanowska was Joseph H.

The Pilates Studio was established in 1994 and operates as a Training Center directly linked with Romana's Pilates based in the United States. Pilates protege and one of the closest direct link to his work. Having recently moved to a new location near Central Station we are just a stones throw from the heart of Sydney's CBD, here we have proudly established a center of excellence in the Pilates Method.

"everything connects to everything"
See those hands on the knee? Cynthia's not just correcting the leg.
She's adjusting how the hip sits. How the spine aligns. How the foot points. How the entire chain works together.
30 years of training under Romana means she sees - and fixes - the whole system, not just the symptom.
This is what precision actually looks like.
Comment "connected" if you've never thought about your body this way 🙏

That moment when you realise your Pilates instructor has a very different definition of "one more" than you do.
But also? This is exactly where the magic happens - right at the edge of your comfort zone, wondering if your arms will ever forgive you. Comment "one more" if you've been personally victimised by this phrase 😅

The reformers get cleaned after every session. The springs get checked regularly. The equipment is maintained exactly as Joseph Pilates designed it. Because excellence isn't just in the teaching - it's in every single detail. This is what commitment to craft actually means. No shortcuts. Ever. Comment "standards" if you appreciate this level of care 🙏 Hashtags:

"this is the part nobody shows you" Not the dramatic movements. Not the impressive flexibility. Just breath. Just awareness. Just your nervous system learning to actually relax instead of constantly bracing. Classical Pilates isn't about pushing harder. It's about understanding when to release, when to engage, and how to tell the difference. Comment "breathe" if you've forgotten what relaxation actually feels like 🙏 Hashtags:

"the moment you stop performing and start feeling"
That look? That's not strain. That's complete focus. Total awareness. Your nervous system finally understanding what alignment actually feels like. While an apprentice watches and learns what decades of practice makes possible. This is classical Pilates - where mental presence creates physical transformation. Save this if you're ready to stop going through the motions ✨

"count the reformers. now count the one-on-one sessions happening simultaneously." This isn't a class. These are individual sessions running in parallel. Each client working at their own level. Each apprentice learning by doing. Every correction precise and personal. 30 years in Sydney. Zero shortcuts. This is what authentic classical Pilates education looks like when it's done right. Comment "authentic" if this is what you've been searching for ✨ Hashtags:

"POV: you showed up to observe and now you're questioning every life choice that led to your terrible posture"
One studio. Multiple reformers. Cynthia and her apprentices making it look effortless.
And you, standing there realizing you've been slouching for 40 years.
Tag someone who needs this wake-up call (or just needs to stop hunching over their phone right now) 😂

"guess how many sessions it took to build the strength for this"
A) 10 sessions
B) 6 months
C) 1+ year of consistent practice
Drop your guess below 👇
This isn't about forcing your body into positions. It's about building the foundation - breath, alignment, control - until movements like this become safe, precise, and powerful.

"learning to see with your hands"
An apprentice discovering what decades of experience feels like - literally.
Understanding the difference between tension and strength. Between compensation and alignment. Between what the client thinks they're doing and what's actually happening.
This is how classical Pilates gets passed down - not through videos, but through years of guided practice under someone who learned from Romana.
Comment "apprentice" if this depth of training speaks to you 📚

"your balance reveals everything"
How you stand. How you walk. How your body compensates for decades of small imbalances.
Classical Pilates doesn't just improve your balance - it teaches you to understand why you lost it in the first place.
See those hands? An apprentice learning to spot what 30 years of training sees instantly.
This is what happens when you stop treating symptoms and start addressing the entire system.
Comment "balance" if you've been ignoring your foundation 🙏

"three people, one movement, complete immersion" The client experiencing precision.
The apprentice learning to see what expertise sees. The teacher guiding both. This is classical Pilates education the way it was always meant to be - not rushed, not simplified, not mass-produced. Save this if you value learning that can't be shortcut 🙏 Hashtags:

"behind every movement, there's a century of precision" See those chains? That's not gym equipment. That's classical apparatus designed nearly 100 years ago - still being used exactly as intended. And in the background? Apprentices learning to preserve it the same way. This is what dedication to craft looks like. Comment "legacy" if this resonates ✨ Hashtags:
