About Us

Lead by industry veteran Nicholas Psarros, The Movement Refinery has been offering professional workshops, in-services and teacher training for several years. 

We seek to make the world of Classical / Archival Pilates more approachable, available and exciting. By examining the work of Joseph Pilates and some of the first generation elders, we go straight to the source and remove the industry nonsense for your benefit. Sadly, the Pilates world has become a battle to the bottom for training providers who have diluted the original work for their gain, we are now inundated with junk-food Pilates studios. We hope that by decoding the work and making it more accessible, together, we can lift the standard of training in the region and bring true Pilates with a modern lens to your local community.
