Features & Capabilities

Are you ready to Master Your Moves? Get the Pilates Mastery™ app by Darien Gold, the ultimate mobile resource for your classical Pilates journey! Whether you’re a student learning Classical Pilates or involved in a certification program, you’ll learn about the Contrology technique featured here in three parts.

Part One includes a set of six mat videos combining the mat and apparatus exercises. Darien demonstrates what the Contrology technique is designed to do and to help you get more out of your training sessions. Studying Contrology is a lifelong practice and as Darien guides you through these six classical Pilates Mat routines, you’ll learn why they are essentials to the Contrology System:

The First Seven™ Classical Intermediate Mat Classical Advanced Mat Teaser Series Short Box Series Rowing Series

In Part Two, the Pilates in 5 series, Darien demonstrates specifically chosen mat exercises and then replicates similar exercises on a particular piece of equipment. You’ll learn how the mat exercise progressions prepare the body for similar exercises on the apparatus. Darien shows the link between mat work and the apparatus and gives detailed cues to explain why Joe’s mat exercises set the foundation for the entire Method.

Part Three is Darien’s original Gold Talk series and is designed for those considering becoming a Pilates teacher or are already teaching and want to deepen their understanding of the why and how to teach the Pilates Method. But don’t worry, if you’re primarily a student, you’ll have a clearer expectation when choosing your teachers. Darien’s quiet and intimate recording studio is the perfect backdrop and you’ll feel like you’re right there with her as she shares little known teaching tips gleaned from her five decades of successfully educating students all over the world. 

Practitioner. Teacher. Mentor. Join Darien today and find your own Pilates Mastery! Pilates Mastery™ is available on the App Store for $9.99. Compatible with both iPhone and iPad.

What our users say:

“Darien is that rare teacher who flows with grace and beauty in her own Pilates practice, and who also teaches specifically, in detail how to do what she does. Her expertise is levels beyond that of any other teacher I’ve ever seen in person or online. And now, with her new app, it goes with me wherever I go!” — Diane R., Visual Artist

“As a professional dressage rider I've been a longtime student of Darien Gold and have taken her private lessons for years. Since moving away two years ago, I've relied on the Darien Gold Pilates app and it has been just as effective as being with Darien in person. This app has significantly improved my fitness and riding, and I feel like she's right there with me during every session. I highly recommend this app to anyone looking to enhance their practice with the guidance of a master teacher.” — Allison Mathy, Dressage Horse trainer, rider and Gold Medalist

"Pilates Mastery by Darien Gold is an extremely intuitive app that is silky smooth and easy to navigate. The app is broken into three categories, Practitioner, Teacher, and Mentor. All categories have videos that open with a written explanation that will help you progress with the Pilates Method whether you are a student or a teacher." — J. Vignola, Pilates civilian

Darien's app is 5 star. Her expertise and knowledge and ability to teach and also do the exercises is that of a true master. Her knowledge and understanding of Joe's Method is deep and powerful.

I used to love the original Darien app, but ever since it stopped working after an iPhone update, I lost it. I decided to give the new version a chance and spent almost $30, but it’s been a major disappointment. The app is glitchy, poorly optimized, and clearly not properly debugged. After just 25 minutes of use, the videos freeze and stop playing entirely. For the price, users deserve a stable, well-maintained experience, not something that feels unfinished.

This app is intuitive and easy to use. As a Pilates teacher I enjoy the precise cueing, Gold Talk tips for teachers and the pilates in 5. I use this app daily!
