"The GYROTONIC® Method requires one to be ‘in their body’ in a way that is unique and expansive in nature.”

To be truly "in your body" is to listen, to feel, and to move from within. Gyrotonic exercises are unique because they encourage presence, expansion, and fluidity—through every joint, every breath, every moment.

Train like a dancer with us! We offer both Classical Pilates AND Gyrotonic at our beautiful custom built studio in the heart of Blackwood.

Episode 22 is now live! In today’s episode, I’m thrilled to be talking to my friend and fellow Kiwi, Katie Agnew of Authentic Pilates and Physiotherapy in Rothesay Bay, Auckland.

Katie and I have known each other for several years, having first met through Olga Tamara of Authentic Pilates Sydney. With an impressive background in Rhythmic Gymnastics, Katie competed in the 1990 Commonwealth Games and multiple international events, earning numerous national awards along the way.

Since becoming a physiotherapist in 1994 and a Pilates teacher in 2001, Katie has built a thriving career. She opened her first studio in 2003 before expanding into a larger space in 2017. She is also a faculty member of Authentic Pilates International and has presented at various conferences throughout her career.

Katie’s Pilates journey took her to the U.S., where she studied under Romana Kryzanowska in New York and Florida, gaining invaluable insights into the Classical Pilates system.

In this episode, we explore her journey, her experiences training with Romana, and her insights into the NZ Pilates industry.

Here’s what we talked about:

🔆 Katie’s journey from Rhythmic Gymnastics to Pilates and Physiotherapy.

🔆 Her commitment and experience of moving to the U.S. to study Pilates.

🔆 Firsthand stories about studying with Romana Kryzanowska.

🔆 Her work with Cirque de Soleil as a Physiotherapist and Pilates teacher.

🔆 How Katie navigated the small but growing Classical Pilates community in New Zealand.

🔆 How she balances and integrates physiotherapy and Pilates within her studio.

🔆 Her approach to teacher training and mentoring.

🔆 How she’s managed her her business while recovering from major surgery.

🔆 Katie’s perspective on the current state of the Pilates industry in New Zealand.

Katie’s story is one of dedication, resilience, and passion for movement. Her journey offers inspiration to Pilates professionals and studio owners alike.This episode is packed with insights you won’t want to miss!

Another exceptional advanced teaching exam passed with .iris ❤️ congratulations Iris, you have come so far in your journey throughout the teacher training. I am so proud of your progress, your dedication and tenacity. This 3 hour exam is the end result of over 600 hours of training, apprenticeship and study. When I created the teacher training several years ago, I had no idea that I would have such wonderful people to hand this work down to. I am beyond proud to see all the hard work they have put in to become Classical Pilates teachers. Our clients are so lucky!! Thanks also to for ensuring 3 hours of Advanced Pilates - you were amazing! Donna Marie, you’re next!!

When you start your Pilates journey at our studio, we take the time to sit down with you and go over your goals and any conditions or injuries you may have.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​This way we can take this information into consideration when we work with you (another reason why we keep our classes small - 3 - 6 people max).

It's really important to us that you feel seen and heard and get the attention to detail you deserve.

This approach helps to prevent injury and promote your healthy and transformation. This is the way we've always done it. It's one of the things that sets our studio apart.

Ready to experience the difference for yourself? Book today via the link in bio.
