our approach

Pilates trends come and go, but the fundamentals never change.

Breath, Concentration, Centering, Control, Precision, and Flow

The growing popularity of reformer Pilates has introduced many people to movement and strength training, which we genuinely love to see.

However, Clinical Pilates offers a more personalised approach than large group reformer classes, with a stronger focus on technique, posture, rehabilitation, progression and the individual needs of each body.

Master Pilates, focuses on highly personalised Clinical Pilates designed to support long-term movement health, rehabilitation, strength and sustainable results. Rest assured, there are still plenty of reformers in our studio — but expect to see a wide variety of specialised equipment designed to extend and refine your practice as well.

Each session is tailored your individual needs, with a strong emphasis on precision, technique and sustainable long-term outcomes.

You can choose private or small group Pilates classes or a mix of both throughout the week.

I began teaching in Melbourne and opened Master Pilates in 2010, with a clear vision: to create a Pilates studio that was technically excellent, visually considered, and respectful of both clients and instructors. Sixteen years on, that ethos still defines the studio.
