No matter what your fitness level, Pilates is a low-impact but high-intensity workout you’ll love for all the right reasons! Every Studio Pilates class is progress-based, meaning you can challenge your own limitations, and with classes seven days a week, morning through to evening, there’s bound to be a class time to suit your schedule. You’ll find us stretching and flexing at the Hawthorne, Coorparoo, and East Brisbane (Kangaroo Point) studios, but with more than 20 locations in and around Brissy, you’re bound to find *the one* for you.
CorePlus
West End
After gaining a cult following all over Victoria, CorePlus has now ticked off another state on the East Coast by opening a studio in West End, Brisbane. Those who know come for the Hot Mat Pilates – the signature style that started it all – but they stay because of the well-rounded offering, including three types each of reformer, mat Pilates, and yoga (including pre-and post-natal and pregnancy-friendly classes). Yes, you’ll leave feeling physically stronger than you have in years, but it is the calm, connection, and focus on mental wellness that truly make CorePlus special. We get the hype – it’s deserved (and the burn is real!).
