The Pilates Standard
Klassisk pilates-uddannelse
The Pilates Standard – Our Heritage
The Pilates Standard (TPS) was founded in 2012 with renowned Pilates educator Bob Liekens as co-owner and educational coordinator.
A direct student of Romana Kryzanowska and a respected teacher with more than 30 years of experience, Bob was dedicated to preserving the authentic work of Joseph Pilates while ensuring its teachings could be passed on to future generations.
Drawing on his extensive experience in Pilates education, Bob helped shape the foundation of TPS and developed the framework that later inspired our Program til fremme af læring og uddannelse (LEAP).
LEAP was created with a clear purpose: to preserve and share the depth, precision, and integrity of the Classical Pilates Method, empowering a new generation of highly skilled Pilates teachers around the world.
The Foundation of the Programs
The foundation of becoming a great Pilates teacher begins with understanding the Method in your own body. Through consistent practice and study, you will develop a deep connection to the exercises, their purpose, and their transformative effects.
From there comes the art of teaching — learning how to share your experience, knowledge, and understanding with others. As you progress through the program, you will develop the skills to observe, guide, and inspire clients while remaining true to the principles of the Classical Pilates Method.
At TPS, we believe that exceptional teaching is built on personal experience, technical mastery, and the ability to communicate the Method with confidence, clarity, and authenticity.
