Irrespective of age, fitness level, injury or movement abilities, the aim of this class is to help you achieve effective movement in a safe, controlled environment. That will benefit you not only as a workout but as you function in daily life.
This mat based class provides focused and concentrated clinical Pilates based movements with resistance based training using body weight and a variety of equipment including hand weights, mini bands, plus other traditional Pilates equipment.
Experienced instructor tuition, by Dahlas Fletcher Certified Female Fitness Coach (in pregnancy, postnatal, pelvic floor and perimenopause) will guide you through every exercise, offering plenty of modifications to suit your fitness and energy levels, coupled with modern movement education.

I discovered how challenging it is for most people to find time for fitness that actually makes you feel good, not more exhausted!
But it wasn't until I navigated the challenges of postpartum recovery (after the births of my three beautiful children) – dealing with abdominal separation plus adrenal fatigue; that I truly understood the disconnection between mainstream fitness advice - especially how the majority of fitness (and nutrition) programs have been created, based on male biomechanics. This means female physiology including every changing hormones and body are often overlooked.
You see, I've been there.
What I witnessed was transformative.
I knew I had to share these proven techniques with as many people as possible.
Because here's the truth: You are not alone. And you can transform your life to enjoy an active, pain-free existence, regardless of your age, stage of motherhood, or fitness level.
My method ditches the common cues like "draw belly button to spine", "feel the burn" and "no pain, no gain".
That's why I've been featured in publications like Mamamia, Women's Health and Fitness Magazine, and the Sydney Morning Herald's Body+Soul, voicing these outdated practices and advocating for more evidence-based, modern movement education. Plus essential certifications for coaches and "fit-influencers" within an ever growing unregulated fitness and media industry.
I personally instruct all my group classes and private sessions, guiding you through every exercise with modifications to suit your unique needs and energy levels.
My goal is to not only challenge you to move more dynamically but to have you leave feeling fabulous and excited that you could do it all again tomorrow !
I can't wait to help you discover your functional strength and fitness.
