Don’t worry - everyone starts out a beginner! If you are new to Pilates reformer or Pilates tower we ask you to start on our Reformer Fundamentals or Tower Fundamentals classes.

99% of our clients at Willoughby had never done tower before either. Pilates Tower classes are big in New York and Paris, but only a few studios offer them in Sydney.

Lots of our Willoughby clients specifically do reformer and tower classes as they love the variety and we have some die hard tower fans who prefer it to reformer. I describe it as the difference between French and German - a word can have the same meaning but be pronounced very differently. If you’ve done Pilate before you’ll probably recognise the exercise and see it’s a different take on them.

Why would you do tower? Well the stretch is AHH-mazing, it adds variety and challenges your body in a new way.

You can read a bit more about tower here.

Grip socks are compulsory for all Pilates reformer and tower classes. If you don’t have any, you can purchase in the studio.

Please bring your own mat for yoga and Pilates mat classes.

Water is always recommended!

If you are 13 weeks or more (in your second trimester), you need to join our prenatal or pre/postnatal classes. You can also attend barre classes (just talk to the teacher at the beginning of class).

To join postnatal/mums & bubs classes you must have had your 6/8 week check with your midwife/doctor and be cleared to exercise.

If your baby is under 6 months old, or you are just returning to exercise after your baby or your physio has recommended postnatal classes - you need to attend our postnatal/mums & bubs classes.

We will have a pram parking area at the back of the studio.

We will have Baby Bjorn bouncers in the studio, so enough for a full Pilates or barre class. Babies must be in a capsule, pram or bouncer during classes for safety reasons. You are also welcome to bring some toys for your baby to play with.

Love Pilates in Willoughby is loved by local mums and professionals for its personalised classes and expert instructors.
