The secret life of our Instructors!

Meet Our Instructor: Taylor ✨

Taylor is a 3rd year Physiotherapy student at ACU and a Reformer Pilates instructor. She has a passion for strength training, implementing physiological understanding of the mind and body with a genuine love for education to empower others through movement.

Her Pilates journey began after her bodybuilding competition, when she utilised it to rehab her pelvic floor and core control. She loved it so much she went on to complete a clinical Pilates certification for Physiotherapists through the Pilates Institute of Queensland. Pilates changed her life and now she uses that knowledge to help others, combining it with her hands-on experience from her physiotherapy studies, so you’ll definitely walk away from class learning something new.

Outside the studio, she loves solo travelling, working as a model for commercial fitness brands and balancing life between Pilates and bodybuilding. In 2024, Taylor dedicated herself to her love for bodybuilding, proudly debuting and winning PRO athlete cards in both Bikini and Swimsuit with Natural Bodybuilding Australia in her Asia Pacific International competition 🏆

If you know Taylor, you know she loves a good yap and catch-up between classes, and you’ll definitely hear her say “for a cheeky two” more than once 😉

Member spotlight - from fear to 600 classes

You know the feeling when you have been hit by a bus,
Well that's exactly what happened to Tara - she was hit by a bus in India! after a long recovery her arm is now stronger than ever, I would even say sometimes it's the stronger arm on some exercises!

But it wasn't easy having a injury like this shakes your confidence it makes you second guess your ability to join in on any exercise

Some people would let that hold them back, use it as an excuse, well Tara did it took her over 6 months to get the confidence to walk into the studio!

Tara started on the 28 day reset program and has

lost weight
Gained strength
Improved her coordination and confidence
Proven to herself she can

From someone who was scared to start
To someone who shows up, moves with confidence, and absolutely owns it!

But honestly the biggest win isn't the number of classes - it's the belief in herself

You don't need to be fit or coordinated to start you just need to start

We are so proud of Tara

Stretch out your spine it works hard everyday!
In our stretch class we use a small pilates ball to gently open the chest and create space
Leaving your back feeling free and energised

Simple movements like this one will improve posture and ease tight muscles, perfect if you sit a lot or feel that hunched feeling in your upper back!

Mat Pilates this morning, this is one of our most popular classes

🌟 Why Mat Pilates is Great 🌟

Mat Pilates is the foundation of all Pilates practice simple, effective, and powerful. You don’t need fancy equipment to get started, just your body, your breath, and a mat.

✨ Build Strength from the Inside Out
Every move begins with activating your core, helping you develop strength that supports your spine, improves posture, and makes everyday movement easier.

✨ Improve Flexibility & Mobility
Through controlled movements and mindful breathing, mat Pilates gently lengthens muscles, increases mobility, and reduces tension.

✨ Accessible to Everyone
Whether you’re new to exercise, returning after a break, or looking to complement your current training, mat Pilates can be tailored to your level. It’s low-impact yet highly effective.

✨ Mind-Body Connection
Pilates is more than just exercise it’s movement with purpose. You’ll leave feeling stronger, longer,
calmer, and more connected to your body.
