I'm Kalli, a passionate Pilates, Reformer and Yoga instructor who thrives off helping others achieve their goals through movement and mindfulness.

Reformer Pilates
Beth has been a qualified Reformer instructor since July 2022, and is also certified for pre- and post-natal Pilates. Beth loves to teach a full body burn, targeting all the muscle groups of the body whilst challenging your stability and increasing your mobility.
Her classes are designed to leave you feeling shaky and a little sweaty as you walk out the door but don't worry, there's always modifications provided to lessen or increase the intensity of your workout! Wherever you're at in your Pilates journey, Beth will meet you there.
Outside of the studio you'll find Beth with her little family at the local markets eating delicious pastries, by the beach with an acai bowl, or on a basketball court.
