The Real Deal
Square 1 Pilates is devoted to teaching Classical Pilates, meaning the original work of Joseph Pilates. This authentic method incorporates all sixteen pieces of apparatus designed by Mr. Pilates. It is not a hybrid, adaptation or other contemporary system of movement it is the original system as seen in archival footage and written works of Joseph Pilates. A unique workout that builds stretch and strength with control

Joseph Pilates, Method Founder
From Amsterdam to LA
Robert Surenbroek teaches the Classical Pilates Method as intended by Joseph Pilates passed on to his protégé Romana Kryzanowska. He is certified comprehensively by two organizations, Power Pilates and Romana’s Pilates. In addition to his certifications he has been a teacher trainer for Power Pilates working in the US and Japan.
Comprehensive training means you have not done a weekend workshop on a single piece of apparatus or simply completed an online course or workshop. It means you have done apprentice hours and extensive hands on training. Many programs today teach only reformer or mat, I teach the whole system with all of the apparatus designed by Joe Pilates.
