The Making of method one
About us
At Method One, we believe Pilates is more than just a workout — it’s a method for living well.
Born out of necessity, Method One was created to fill a gap in Pretoria: a beautiful, welcoming space to move, connect, and feel inspired. More than just a studio, it’s a calm, uplifting environment where movement feels fun and community comes first.
With small classes of just six clients, we focus on personal attention and intentional movement to ensure every session is safe, effective, and transformative. Whether you’re new to Reformer Pilates or ready to take your practice further, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.
Flow through dynamic classes designed to strengthen and energise your body, then refuel with signature matcha drinks and healthy takeaways at the Method One Matcha Bar — a first of its kind in Pretoria.
Step inside our world
the Method One Pilates Club
Step inside Method One, and you’ll find a space designed to inspire. Minimal, modern, and calm, our studio is a reflection of the focus and energy we bring to every class.
At the front, our reception and merch nook welcomes you to check in or shop our curated Method One merch and essentials.
Our main studio features Reformers for just six clients per session, keeping classes intimate and personal.
We also have a bathroom with two showers, each with a private dressing space, and two vanity stations so you can refresh and get ready after class — whether you’re heading to work, brunch, or a night out.
More than a workout space, Method One is designed for you to move, reset, and recharge.

Wellness doesn’t stop when class ends.
Step into the Method One Matcha Bar to refuel, reset, and connect. Enjoy our signature matcha drinks and healthy takeaways in our cozy courtyard — perfect for sitting down before or after class, or simply taking a quiet moment for yourself.
The Matcha Bar is also open to the public, so you can grab a delicious takeout matcha anytime. Whether you’re recharging post-class or popping in for a healthy boost, it’s a space designed to nourish both body and mind — the first of its kind in Pretoria.
