Do I need Pilates experience?

No. Many people start here without any prior Pilates experience. Sessions move at a pace that allows you to learn and settle in, rather than feel like you need to keep up. 

​

Sessions are suitable for beginners, and everything is guided step by step.

Can beginners book Duo Sessions?

Yes. Duo sessions work well for beginners, especially if both people are new to Pilates or enjoy learning alongside someone else. 

Is there an age requirement?

If you’re enquiring about sessions for someone under 18, please get in touch so we discuss suitability.

What about pregnancy?

If you’re pregnant or recently postpartum, kindly contact me before booking so we can talk through what kind of support would feel right for you.

How do you help me choose the right session?

I use an intake form to understand how you’re arriving and what you're looking for from your practice.

​

If another session type would be a better place to start, we’ll talk it through so you feel clear and comfortable with your choice.

Is 30 minutes enough?

Yes. A shorter session can be a great option, especially  when starting Pilates or returning after a break. Sessions are paced intentionally so you leave feeling supported, not depleted.

What should I wear?

Comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely is perfect. For hygiene and safety, grip socks are required for all sessions. If you don't have a pair yet, you can purchase them in the studio. 

What should I bring to my session?

Please bring a water bottle and a towel you're comfortable using on the reformer. Drinking water is available in the studio. 

Is the studio accessible?

The studio is located in a home setting and is currently accessed via stairs. Step-free access is not available at this time. Improvements to access are planned for the future.

We happily welcome clients from Ferntree Gully, Bayswater, The Basin, Croydon, Wantirna, Ringwood and surrounding suburbs across Knox who are looking for a calm, private environment.  A friendly dog lives on the property.

Is parking available?

street parking.
