Fantastic experience: I can highly recommend the True Pilates Sydney Studio! I've been training with Yung Ok and her colleagues for a long time. They are very knowledgeable, challenge you, keep lessons interesting and diverse. Yoka

Fantastic experience: "I love True Pilates studio. It has some of the best teachers I’ve ever come across. My sessions with Yung OK, studio owner and principal instructor, Yusun Oh, instructor, and occasionally, Juyeon Lee, have all been uniformly excellent. They are all dedicated, extremely knowledgeable, friendly and compassionate. I arrived a massive challenge––busted ribs, zero flexibility, no range of motion and super-tight muscles. Under the firm but supportive guidance of Yung Ok and YuSun, I have improved dramatically. Their ability to adapt the sessions to my changing needs and challenges has been nothing short of phenomenal. Plus, they make it fun. On the many days when I could barely move, they cheered me up and somehow got things working. Despite my limitations, they never displayed the slightest hint of impatience or boredom––only support and care. After 10 months of working with them, my body has been transformed. My stiffness and pain has dramatically reduced. I always leave every session with a wonderful feeling of lightness and flexibility, and gratitude for their guidance and care.”

Fantastic experience: I have been doing pilates with the studio for nearly 18 months. I am a blind man and both Yung-Ok and Juyeon have been expertly guiding me around various pieces of equipment safely. Both are very knowledgeable with regards to exercise and being able to pinpoint the parts of my body that require attention. I feel I am more flexible and generally toned in my body. And I’ve thoroughly enjoyed getting to know them as people and various pilates exercises! Toby Blome on behalf of Robert N.

Fantastic experience: This studio is really clean and the instructors are very professional where they know how to cater pilates to fit different needs and experiences.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend True Pilates Sydney Studio , I have been doing classes with Yung Ok Yoo for almost a month, twice a week and I can tell the difference in my body’s flexibility already. Yung Ok Yoo is a dedicated instructor and very knowledgeable in her field. I’m continuing my journey with True Pilates as I know I will achieve my goals and enjoying the laughs along the way.

Fantastic experience: Love the highly individualized workouts and adjustments! Been going for over a year and I’ve really gained an awareness of my positioning and body postures.

Fantastic experience: Lovely small studio with a great team. I'm really enjoying my sessions!

Fantastic experience: I have been attending both private and group classes at True Pilates for over two years now. Yung Ok has been an excellent instructor and is very precise in technique. I have really enjoy seeing my skills develop over time. I have gained huge improvements in my strength and flexibility throughout our sessions and would highly recommend True Pilates to anyone looking for real results.

Fantastic experience: Almost two years coming here, always amazing. Love how the one on one session with Yusun as always and love how accomodating Yung Ok is

Fantastic experience: I joined Yung Ok and team after 9 months of chemo. I was physically broken. The incredible teachers were able to tailor and adapt to my needs and over the past year have rebuilt my body back to strength. Regaining muscle loss is very difficult but I honestly feel stronger than I did before chemo. After years of back issues, I am completely pain free. Yung ok and her team are exceptional teachers and yet it is their kindness, compassion and commitment to their clients that really sets them apart. I cannot recommend highly enough.

Fantastic experience: Finally found an instructor/ studio that cares for the health of clients first & not a money making scheme.

Fantastic experience: True Pilates is the best pilates studio in Sydney. I have been a client there for many years and all the trainers are excellent and provide individualised teaching. A special mention for JuYeon who is my current trainer! But also a big shout out to Yung Ok and Yusun. Happy to recommend True Pilates! Michele

Fantastic experience: Always looking forward for my private sessions with Yung Ok and group mat classes with Juyeon. They’re so good and they always pay close attention during each movement. I feel lighter yet strengthened after each session. Yung Ok and Juyeon always remind me to use the right muscles when exercising and they tailor each exercise accordingly. Love the energy during the classes! Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: True Pilates Sydney Studio Instructors offer a personalised experience every session. A year ago. Aged 50, I decided to focus on restoring strength and proactively managing chronic pain associated with lower back injury. I'm now pain free and have regained the core strength that I believed I had lost decades ago. I wholeheartedly recommend this studio for anyone thinking of trying Pilates. Very friendly instructors, focused on providing a safe and supportive environment to rebuild physical confidence.

Fantastic experience: Truly a transforming experience! Yung Ok and the other instructors are amazing. They tailor the exercises precisely to your need and ability, detailed in their approach, positive, encouraging and good humoured.

Fantastic experience: True Pilates is such an amazing studio where all the instructors are very attention to details with the form and techniques and every session I've had so far have been filled with sweats. I've definitely felt the difference in my body/posture since I started. I am looking forward to continue my pilates journey at the studio.

Fantastic experience: Yung Ok and the other instructors at True Pilates studio are amazing! They all take pilates very seriously and the attention to details is just I used to have soreness all over the back of my body and also my left hip, but now they’re all getting better. Also I feel a lot stronger, more mindful of my body to ensure I’m using the right muscles when exercising.

Fantastic experience: Very helpful and patient for someone that had no clue what they were doing.

Negative experience: Not particularly patient or welcoming. Also did not appreciate being held by my hair.

Fantastic experience: I really loved my class with Yung Ok Yoo. She is very lovely and helpful.She has enabled me to increase my range of motion of my hip. Fantastic lessons! Thank you Yung Ok.

Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend True Pilates studio! Yung Ok is a fantastic and patient instructor, I was a complete beginner when I joined and I can see clear results in a short period of time. I am looking forward to continuing my Pilates journey with this fantastic studio and team and would not hesitate to recommend them!

Fantastic experience: I knew something wrong my body and I have some bad working habit. But I couldn't find. But today, I knew all my problems and the session was very effective and helpful. $125 for 1hr session, it's pretty worth. I will definitely come again!

Fantastic experience: True Pilates Studio is such great place to be! Instructors are very helpful and caring. They always listen and always ask how our body is feeling and how we feel before and after the pilates sessions. True Pilates caters for each individual needs. We discuss on the areas of ourselves that need improvement or workdone. Im surprised to be in lighter body with more mind clarity after just attending few classes. I am glad to be part of the True Pilates family!

Fantastic experience: I had great lessons from Yung ok while I stayed in Sydney. Yung ok focused on my progression based on what she found from my body condition and constantly challenged me to take me to the next level. Also how she shares her knowledge and experiences through lessons were warm and thankful. Thank you for the great experience :)

Fantastic experience: Para quem busca aulas de qualidade e que respeita o método Pilates criado por Joseph Pilates, o True Pilates é o lugar certo para quem estiver em Sidney. Studio amplo, arejado e equipado com os aparelhos clássicos do Pilates. Fiz uma aula com o instrutor Pablo e posso dizer que ele e um ótimo profissional, muito atencioso, soube conduzir muito bem a aula ajudando-me nas correções necessárias que meu corpo precisava. Recomendo!

Fantastic experience: I've trained now at True Pilates for over a year now withYung Ok, Pablo and their colleagues. After living with long term chronic pain and a bulged disc, I have never felt stronger, and been pain free as now! With every session I can see my progress & I have confidence in their advice & skills. Love it!

Fantastic experience: My experience at True Pilates has been revolutionary. I have been expertly and gently assisted towards pain free living. Walking taller!

Fantastic experience: Incredible teachers and amazing studio! I hurt my back, beginning of 2019.. doctor suggested I start Pilates.. I laughed and thought to myself how will that change anything but went along to a private session a couple days later.... 6 months into it and it’s truly been the best decision I’ve made for my recovery process! The staff/teachers care greatly for each individual and are incredibly informative and committed to your progression in Pilates!

Fantastic experience: After experimenting with three other Pilates studios, I can share that the experience at True Pilates Studio with Yung Ok is absolutely amazing and delivers incomparable results. The personalised care and attention given along every single exercise make this session perfect. I particularly enjoyed the focus on my body and the constant explanation and reminder about which ‘muscle is suppose to kick in or relax’ how different of my body are ‘supposed to be position’ for both maximum results whilst always ensuring I do not get injured in the process. As a bonus I really enjoyed the Sutio look and feel.

Fantastic experience: I Was very enjoy the time with Carol who is one of the experienced trainers in studio. I have to say that you will never regret to choose Pilates as postnatal recovery exercise as the visible result. Will definitely come back again.

Fantastic experience: Excellent teachers that care .Technically trained so form is spot on. Can't recommend enough..

Fantastic experience: I have found my twice weekly sessions with Yung Ok in her beautiful studio in Surry Hills positively transformative. As a middle-aged woman awaiting my second hip replacement, I needed a Pilates instructor who could truly understand my specific needs and limitations. Yung Ok has done that and more. She has enabled me to increase my range of motion, strengthen my core, and prepare for my upcoming surgery both mentally and physically. I am certain the work we have done together will make a difference in my post-surgery rehabilitation and I look forward to coming back a few months down the line. Thanks for everything!

Fantastic experience: My friend Mel and I came here for a duet pilate with Yung and it was really good. We enjoyed it immensely that 1 hour session went really fast . Thank you very much, Yung. We are very grateful that we found you!:)

Fantastic experience: I am having a truly amazing experience at this beautiful boutique studio. Yung Ok and Pablo are incredible and my private sessions with them have benefited my body and mind in an enormous way. I cannot rate True Pilates highly enough!

Fantastic experience: One of my best experiences. I trained with the team at True Pilates Sydney for 5 weeks (twice a week) and saw my body transform. Yung Ok and her team are very experienced and dedicated to the discipline. The studio is clean and peaceful - located in Surry Hills. Whether you are a beginner in pilates or looking to further your training, this is the place to go. Thanks Yung Ok!

Fantastic experience: A stylish, well-equipped and friendly studio in a central location.The instructors are extremely professional and tailor sessions to match the needs of the clients, resulting in a personalised Pilates experience that delivers excellent results. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: My experiences at True Pilates with Yung Ok, studio owner and 3rd generation Pilates instructor, have been nothing short of exemplary. Coming from the fitness industry myself, this was my first encounter with pilates of any kind and I wanted to be sure that it was taught in the authentic, 'classic' style that it was at True Pilates. From the onset, Yung Ok could identify areas of weakness within my body, and has since been working on strengthening and conditioning my body in ways I could never foresee myself. During each private session, Yung Ok builds upon the exercises taught in the previous class, progressively building up my strength, control and co-ordination to attempt newer and more challenging exercises. I absolutely loved having this 'individualised' approach and was completely in awe of the amazing results I noticed within less than ten private sessions. It is so refreshing to see pilates taught in this classic style and the True Pilates studio in Surry Hills is definitely the place to go. So glad I found this place. I feel like a completely different person!

Fantastic experience: I've trained with the team at True Pilates since the beginning of the year. All trainers are great professionals and the studio is beautiful! I'm a fitness addict and do a lot of different sports but there's no doubt that since I started Pilates, I've noticed my posture improved and my strength increase. Love my experience and highly recommend it!

Fantastic experience: I have been with Yung Ok the studio owner at True Pilates for two years. Initially I joined because I was experiencing chronic pain in both of my hips. This was a condition which worsened over time until I eventually got both of them replaced in an operation only recently. Yung Ok had her work cut out for her dealing with me because I had both physical and mental issues going on. The chronic pain made it hard for me to concentrate at times. Somehow her personality was so bright that she always cheered me up and got me through my program without it ever seeming to trouble her. She knows how to get the most out of people and is a great communicator. Her technical knowledge of Pilates is world class and she has had some serious training. She showed compassion to me when her rates went up and I had a lot of tests and expenses and she kept mine the same. Also if you want to reschedule your class she is great at accomodating you. The best thing about her is when you are in her studio you always feel relaxed and you enjoy your classes as well as getting results. There are two other therapists at the studio and they are first rate too. There names are Luke and Pablo. Pablo has a lot of physio skills which are great if you have an injury. He can also do straight Pilates very well. Luke is very experienced and has great skills too. He is more the joker in the studio and seems to be very popular with the female clients. I have had classes with all three of the therapists there and you can't miss. Whoever you get will get the job done. My operation was only recent and I did a "prehab" five Pilates classes a week for three weeks before the operation. I used all three therapists. The whole team got behind me and we strengthened my body before the operation. Quite simply this was gold. After the operation I am recovering really well thanks to this. I would definitely recommend her studio and am looking forward to getting back there after I have recovered from my surgery. Brent Fisher

Fantastic experience: I am so happy having discovered Pilates done in the traditional way. What a difference this has made to my posture, the quality and strength in riding my road bike and overall feeling more connected in my body. Luke my instructor with his dry humour is very thorough and has an amazing knowledge of the Pilates work and the human body. I truly recommend Luke and True Pilates Sydney.

Fantastic experience: True Pilates is a proper Pilates studio with one of the best teachers you will find in Australia. Yung Ok is a very thorough and patient teacher and since I have started Pilates with her I have noticed increases in my strength and flexibility. I would highly recommend this studio for anyone who wants to learn the traditional Pilates method, recover from any injuries they may have or simply improve their overall health.

Fantastic experience: Yong Ok - I just wanted to say thank you for your professionalism and friendship. My experience at your studio has been first rate and more importantly fun. You go the extra mile quite simply because you care about the outcomes. Keep up the good work. Nick S.

Fantastic experience: I had 19 One on One sessions for 3 months with Yung Ok - post L4/5 micro-discectomy surgery. Yung Ok was extremely professional and adapted my Pilates to fit in with the restriction and inflammation in my Lumbar Spine after the surgery. I was the first Client to begin a rehab program so early after back surgery she told me. Yung Ok was very patient and her knowledge of anatomy and bio-mechanics of the Lumbar Spine and Pelvic area accelerated my recovery by strengthening my core through isolation of anterior abdomen muscles. I would highly recommend her for patients wishing to be proactive in there rehabilitation from Back surgery.

Fantastic experience: True Pilates equipment is first class and well kept, my teacher (Yung Ok) is knowledgable and customises the exercise regime to individual clients. My one hour weekly session with Yung Ok is my little bit of "painful zen" - a one on one Pilates class where I have her full attention and she stretches me in all kinds of directions! After walking out the door, I feel a foot taller and breath so much easier. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I can't imagine a better studio, or a better teacher than Yung Ok. Every care is taken to make sure every movement is precise and correct. Her gentle firmness, passionate awareness and profound understanding of both traditional Pilates and its contemporary adaptations makes True Pilates Sydney truly a world-class studio.
