What people are saying about us.

  • Pilates with Doro and Central Pilates is a real treat. Focused technique, targeted to my needs, and I have the option of both in person classes on the equipment, and also zoom classes when I travel. Highly recommended!

  • Dorothea's session added a welcome change of pace to my team off-site. Dorothea can confidently hold the attention of the room, has a huge amount of knowledge around mindfulness and self-care, and was highly professional and flexible in her approach.

    Angela S., Head, Content Ideas Lab, ABC TV

  • Dorothea is an amazing instructor. She's very knowledgeable and experienced and has a great eye for knowing exactly which muscles you are using or not using and how to get them engaging the right way. I've learnt a lot from her too. The new studio is nice and light, and all the equipment is brand new (and big enough for tall people like me!).

  • I can't recommend Dorothea highly enough. I love that I feel completely safe as well as challenged under her direction. Her attention to detail and the extra lengths she goes to to get to know all of her client's bodies are what set her apart. I look forward to class every week, they never come soon enough.

    Bridie G. Stylist

  • I so appreciate Dorothea's personalised service. The studio sessions (each totalling no more than 4 clients) enable every client to feel they can receive a personalised program - without the cost of a private class. The studio is fresh and so clean, a treat to be there. And the conversations are fun too! I highly recommend

  • For most of the last ten years I have served in stressful C-suite roles leading large organisations. I started pilates seeking help with a specific shoulder problem caused by computer use. However, once the shoulder was fixed, I discovered that once a week sessions make a huge difference to my productivity and sense of well being. My early morning session has me in the office feeling grounded, calm, stronger and more relaxed. My overall health and resilience have been greatly improved, meaning I can be more productive over long days, with higher energy levels and sustained focus. I strongly recommend pilates with Dorothea for senior people who need their bodies to keep up with their brains.

  • I thought making time and space for Pilates in my busy executive lifestyle would be difficult. Instead, it has become a priority booking in my calendar. It has helped me stay fit, flexible and strong to cope with the relentless physical demands of my long hours on planes, in meetings, and at computers. Thank you, Dorothea!

    Mary J.C. AM

  • Pilates has improved my wellbeing significantly. I am in my early 60’s and have found Dorothea sensitive to the needs and stressors on the body, designing routines that extend core strength without pushing the body beyond its capability. She is patient, attentive and diligent in ensuring correct technique while being gentle in correction. At the beginning of every class, she checks how the body is, and will make adjustments in the routine to suit. I very much appreciate Dorothea’s instruction style and happy disposition in leading the class.

    Jeof F., GM/CEO

  • Not only is it fun to work with Dorothea but she has very special skills as a Pilates teacher and is a wonderful communicator.

    John M, Film Producer

  • I have been going to this studio for about 4 years now. I had ankle, and knee problems which all improved immensely. I can do many things that I couldn't do before, my core strength has hugely improved and I am quite confident that I will be able to avoid surgeries in my old age. The programs are created to the individual needs and she is very attentive to every single person in the class. Dorothea is an excellent, highly qualified instructor, tough but fair with a great sense of humor. She is creating a wonderful atmosphere where we almost forget how hard we actually work. It is all to our benefits, of course! I can highly recommend Central Pilates Studio.
