KRISTYN
OPERATIONS MANAGER & PILATES INSTRUCTOR
I’m a mum of two who has lived in the most northern suburb of the Illawarra since I was 13. My background is in marketing, art, design, and customer service.
I love feeling like I’ve made a positive difference in someone’s day, and I’d like to think I come at most problems with optimism and a sense of humour. I’m thrilled to be working in a studio that is dedicated to making peoples’ lives and bodies better, with a strong group of women.

IMOGEN
WOLLONGONG STUDIO MANAGER & PILATES INSTRUCTOR
I grew up in NZ, and Australia when my family moved to Australia about 14 years ago! In 2017 I moved to Wollongong for university to study a bachelor of Commerce and have never left. I love the ocean and the lifestyle here. I have ridden horses for many years growing up competing most weekends throughout NSW and VIC with my sister and family.
We loved the outdoors and spending time with our horses which we still love and are really lucky to still do! Now I enjoy living a really active lifestyle and am loving learning more about the body and my own body and how it is built, through Pilates!

BEC
PILATES INSTRUCTOR
Growing up I lived between two different countries, California, USA and Cambridge, UK. I’ve been a dancer most my life, starting with performances in ballets as a child. When I was 17 I was accepted into a performing arts school in England, acquiring my diploma some 3 years later. It was there in the performing arts school that I found my love for Contemporary dance and eventually danced my way around Europe in a contemporary company for a number of years amongst other shows all around the UK in between. In 1998 one of my dancing gigs brought me to Australia and I never looked back.
I moved to Australia permanently in 2000 and continued to dance in Sydney. I moved to Wollongong when I had my daughter. Here I met my husband and inherited two bonus sons. Family life keeps me very busy!

ALLIRA
PILATES INSTRUCTOR
I have spent my whole life in Wollongong. As a child my parents encouraged my four brothers, one sister and I (I am one of six kids!) to participate in sports. This meant they were forever being a taxi driver chauffeuring us around to our various sports!

Outside the studio….
I’m a social being and lover of travel on one hand and the other love to simply potter around the house being with my kids.
Love a good walk/hike and Illawarra is full of beautiful walks, I encourage you to explore.
Weakness is good old Cadbury Fruit & Nut Chocolate or a Portuguese Tart. (homemade is best)
Anything else we should know
I’m committed to my continued learning in all

RACHEL
PILATES INSTRUCTOR
I initially fell in love with Pilates as I saw it as my “me-time”. It is one of the only activities where I can successfully switch my brain off from all the noise. I am able to focus on something that make me feel good, so it's great for not only my physical health but also mental health.
I also love that it is a low impact sport that at the same time increases my strength, flexibility, balance & posture.
What can you expect from my class?
I really enjoy creating classes that flow & that include a good mix of strength, balance, flexibility & optional challenges.

TRISH
PILATES INSTRUCTOR
I am a wife and a mother of two young adults. In previous career paths, I have dedicated my time as a nurse & childcare nurse/teacher. I have always loved caring for people, and challenging them to grow.
I am a multi-business owner of a highly respected fast-food franchise for the last 18 years. My role has always been hands-on in training & leading staff of all ages.
From my first class of Reformer Pilates, I felt inspired to help others feel the way Reformer makes me feel so I studied Reformer & Mat Pilates through Breathe Education.
My goal as a Pilates teacher is to encourage fearless movements in fun and safe classes. I aim to instil confidence in all clients’ own physicality and freedom of movement.
There is always a new move to teach or a new way to make exercising more challenging, therefore there is always growth physically and mentally.
I believe Pilates helps with aspects of pain, rehabilitation, body sculpting & strength in all body areas.
