Starting something new is hard enough.

You shouldn’t also have to walk into a room full of strangers, climb onto a machine you’ve never used before and pretend you’re not riddled with anxiety as you try to not look like a baby horse. 

So we don’t do that here.

We’ve designed the way you start at SISU to make it feel less scary, more supported and a whole lot more likely that you’ll actually stick with it.

You’ll know what you’re doing.
You’ll have a plan.
You’ll know a few faces.

And apparently… you might even find yourself a new pal along the way 🥹

Because handing you a class credit and wishing you luck? Yeah… not really our thing.

Our 28 Day Spring Reset is where every new SISU member begins. Your induction, your plan, four weeks of support and our team in your corner while you find your feet.

DM RESET and we’ll figure out if our Reset is right for you.

We could’ve just said “do 12 classes in 6 weeks” and called it a challenge.

But how BORING is that? 🥱

We’re officially over halfway through our SISU Winter Rebellion and our members have been bringing the HEAT - completing bonus missions, getting involved, having a laugh and generally proving that we do not know how to do things by halves around here.

There’s been a Midwinter Christmas movie night, weekly Mat Pilates sessions (where everyone gets the pleasure of watching me suffer alongside them 😂), ridiculous bonus missions, herbal tea for our early birds, merch to be earned by everyone and a $400 self-care package waiting for one lucky sausage at the finish line.

Because yes, consistency matters.

But we also believe movement should be FUN. Your studio should be somewhere you actually want to go. Especially at the time of year when it’s hardest to leave the warmth of home!

We do cool stuff here.

Everyone stakes claim to having a community.

But THIS is what it looks like at SISU. 

Because when life starts to feel like work → home → work → home, you need somewhere that’s just for you.

Not as mum. Not as the boss. Not as the person holding everything together.

Just you.

A third space. Somewhere to go, people to laugh with and things to actually look forward to.

We don’t just talk about community. We create reasons for it to actually happen.

And there’s plenty more where this came from.

Want in? Come join us.

Maybe you don’t hate exercise.

Maybe you just haven’t found somewhere you actually want to go.

Before SISU, Sue and Angie had tried the things you’re “supposed” to try - gyms, bootcamps, spin class.

But nothing really stuck.

And listening to them talk, I think a huge part of it came down to something we don’t talk about enough:

Belonging.

Finding somewhere you don’t feel intimidated.
Where you don’t feel like you have to already be fit to fit in.
Where people know your name (plus your dog’s name and what you’re doing for the weekend 😅)
Where you notice when someone hasn’t been there.
Where showing up starts to feel less like another thing you have to do… and more like something you genuinely look forward to.

Because the best exercise in the world means nothing if you don’t actually want to keep doing it.

⭐️ Meet the Members | Episode 2
What did you try before and why didn’t it work?

Their answers are the same as so many other women that step through our doors.

So maybe finding your thing isn’t just about finding the right workout.

Maybe it’s about finding your people, too.

If you’ve tried the gym, the bootcamps, the 8 week challenges and nothing’s ever really stuck, maybe you haven’t found your people yet. It might be time to come meet ours.

Hear me out.

On paper, class packs sound like the perfect solution.

They’re flexible.
No commitment.
Come whenever you like.
Perfect for the modern day busy women, some would say.

But after years of watching hundreds of women start their health journey, I’ve seen the same story play out over and over again. And it breaks my heart everytime.

Someone buys a pack full of motivation and they start with a bang.

But then life starts life-ing
Work gets hectic.
Kids get sick.
A holiday pops up.

One missed week turns into two. Then three.

Attendance spreads out. They don’t see results. The pack expires. And they walk away feeling like Pilates didn’t work for them.

But here’s the thing...

It does. They just didn’t do it often enough to get results.

Over the past few months, I’ve gone deep down the rabbit hole trying to understand what actually helps people create lasting change.

The answer isn’t more motivation.
It isn’t finding the “perfect” workout.

It is consistency.
Week after week.
Month after month.

That’s why we’ve made the decision to say goodbye to class packs at SISU.

Because I genuinely believe there is a better way to help people build habits that stick.

Over the last 8 months we have been building our memberships around accountability, coaching, community and consistency, because our job isn’t just to help you exercise.

It’s to help you create a healthier body, a happier mind and habits that last long after the initial motivation wears off so you can go out there and create the biggest, most positive impact that you can on the world.

I know not everyone will agree with this decision.
But I’d rather build a business around what I believe gives people the best chance of success than what’s simply easiest to sell.

If you’re tired of the stop-start cycle and you are ready to actually make a routine stick, send us a DM and we can have a chat about how this could work for you.

For something that every woman will experience, menopause is still surrounded by so much silence and dismissal. We think that needs to change.

Last weekend, we filled our studio with 22 women who were ready to get answers to the questions they’d been carrying for months, sometimes years.

Questions about brain fog. Fatigue. Weight gain. Hormones. Sleep. Mood. S*x drive.

There was something incredibly powerful about a room full of women realising they weren’t broken, they weren’t imagining it and they definitely weren’t alone.

A huge thank you to Ginny McArthur for leading such an honest and practical conversation about menopause. Everyone walked away with evidence-based strategies to help tackle the symptoms and feel more like themselves, but more importantly, they walked away feeling understood.

This is the kind of community we’re building at SISU.

Not just a Pilates studio, but a place where women can move, learn, ask questions, share experiences and support one another through every season of life.

We’d love to do another one.

If we hosted another women’s health event, what topic would you love us to cover next? Let us know in the comments!

160.

That’s how many of our members have chosen to prioritise themselves this winter.

Not because life suddenly got less busy or motivation magically appeared.
But because they decided to choose their health over their excuses (and the couch).

Tomorrow, our first ever SISU Winter Rebellion begins.

Over the next six weeks, these legends will be showing up for themselves, battling it out in-studio with bonus missions, joining us for mid-winter Christmas movie night + beach walks (and chilly sea dips!), earning some limited edition merch and proving that winter doesn’t get to decide how they feel.

This has never been about six weeks.

It’s about building the habits that carry you through every season. Especially when it’s easy to choose to stay home.

To every single person whose name is on the leaderboard… we’re so bloody excited to do this with you!

Are you ready?!

Making friends as an adult isn’t hard because you’re bad at it.

It’s hard because life isn’t set up for it anymore.

You’re not sitting next to the same people at school every day or living in halls.

You’re juggling work, family and a million other things.

So if you’re waiting for friendship to just... happen?
It probably won’t.

That’s why we started Walking Club.

No awkward networking.
No forced “tell us about yourself” moments.
No pressure to keep a conversation going every second.

Just fresh air, a beautiful walk, and people who are also looking to connect.

The best conversations usually happen when you’re walking side by side anyway.

📍 Walking Club | This Sunday

Come with a friend.
Come by yourself.
Some of the best friendships at SISU started because someone decided to turn up alone.

Comment WALK and we will see you Sunday.
