the reformer studio
Reformer Pilates
Fifteen reformers and a full timetable. Spring-loaded resistance builds strength, control and mobility with far less load through the joints than free weights.
Signature Reformer Plus (Intermediate)
An elevated reformer experience for those ready to deepen their practice. This class builds on the fundamentals with more dynamic sequences, progressive layering, and advanced variations to challenge strength, coordination, and control. With plenty of layering options, Signature Reformer Plus can be tailored to all levels, helping you refine technique, build endurance, and enhance mind-body awareness while moving with power and grace.
Reformer Foundations
A supportive, empowering introduction to reformer Pilates. Whether you are new to the reformer, returning from injury or simply wanting to slow it down, this class guides you through the fundamentals with calm, confident instruction. The ideal way to build strength, awareness and confidence.
40min Express
An all-body reformer session for maximum results in minimal time. Made for the lunchtime crew or anyone craving a midday reset. A dynamic, energising flow that strengthens, tones and lifts while improving mobility and focus.
Stretch and Restore
A soothing, restorative reformer experience designed to lengthen and release every part of the body. Calming music, soft lighting and gentle sequences that improve flexibility and mobility, closing with a grounding meditation.
Signature Sculpt 40
Short on time, big on results. A 40 minute, high-impact full-body workout designed to build strength, tone and lift your heart rate fast. Smart sequencing, deep muscle burn and that worked-everything feeling, without the long class commitment.
Elevate (Jumpboard)
A playful, high-energy reformer class using the jumpboard for a cardio-infused flow that is gentle on the joints yet seriously effective. Low impact, raises the heart rate, builds stamina and improves coordination.
Burn
A fiery, targeted reformer workout building strength and tone through the glutes, thighs and deep core. Alignment-focused movement blending breath, control and connection, with a booty band or two for extra burn. Challenging but accessible for all levels.
Over 60s Reformer Pilates
A gentle, supportive class designed especially for those 60 and over, focusing on mobility, balance, posture and core strength on the reformer. Slower pacing, clear guidance and modifications available, so you can move safely while building confidence and strength.
Pilates on Demand
A private, single-reformer room with a screen playing Pilates workouts recorded for SiSU. Train at your own pace, outside class times. Built for shift workers, early risers and anyone whose week refuses to fit a timetable.
the mat studio
Mat Pilates, Yoga and Meditation
Everything that happens on a mat, from a strong Pilates class through to lying-down meditation. Classes are kept small enough that the instructor can see everyone.
Mat Pilates
A strong, energising mat class blending controlled strength work, dynamic sequences and deep core activation. Slow burn holds, flowing movement and creative layering that build endurance, stability and full body strength.
Mat Pilates Express
The same strong, energising mat class in 40 minutes. Controlled strength work, dynamic sequences and deep core activation, with slow burn holds and creative layering that build endurance and full body strength. Suitable for all levels.
Vinyasa Flow
Move with strength, rhythm and purpose in this breath linked flow class. You will move through a sequence of smooth, continuous postures that build gentle heat, improve mobility and activate the whole body. The pace is balanced yet energising, strengthening yet accessible, making it a great class for anyone to explore the power of vinyasa yoga. Expect a grounded and uplifting practice that leaves you feeling centred, refreshed and ready for your day.
Dynamic Vinyasa Flow
A strong and dynamic vinyasa flow class which will cultivate your mind-body-breath connection to build strength, flexibility and balance on and off the mat.
Essence of Hatha Yoga
A calm, nurturing Hatha practice that guides you inward through mindful movement and steady breath. Grounded postures and smooth transitions that build stability and mobility. Closes with a restorative Savasana, an optional grounding massage and a touch of poetry.
Move, Breathe, Be
A gentle, heart-based flow designed to release tension, restore energy and fill your inner cup. Inspired by Dru Yoga, blending flowing movement, mindful breath and stillness. Each sequence opens the joints, frees the spine and restores energy flow.
Slow Flow to Yin
The balance of gentle movement and deep stillness. Begins with a slow, mindful flow to release tension and build warmth, then moves into yin postures held for longer, to encourage deep release through the muscles, fascia and nervous system.
Family Yoga
A calm, playful class bringing families together through mindful movement and fun. Space for parents and children to slow down, move and share something meaningful. Gentle movement, breath and mindfulness for all ages, finishing with stillness. No yoga experience needed.
Guided Meditation
A time to rest, restore and return to yourself. Each session opens with an optional grounding head massage, then breath awareness, body scanning and visualisation. Accessible whether you want a moment of stillness or a deeper meditative practice.
Yoga Nidra
A soothing practice often described as yogic sleep. You will rest comfortably while being guided through breath, body awareness and visualisation techniques that support profound relaxation and nervous system down regulation. Yoga Nidra helps ease fatigue, improve sleep and bring clarity to the mind. Expect a deeply restorative experience that leaves you feeling rested and renewed.
who is teaching
Your instructors
Every instructor at SiSU is trained in trauma-informed practice, not only our psychologists and counsellors. That is not a separate class, it is how every class here is run.
In practice it means choice and predictability are built in. Nothing is done to you without warning, hands-on adjustment is offered rather than assumed, and you can lie down, sit out or leave the room at any point without explaining why.
Service dogs are welcome in every class and everywhere else in the studio. Let us know when you book if you can, so we can have the space ready.
Instructor names appear against every class on the timetable, so you can book with someone you have got on with before.

Classes and bio
- Signature Reformer
- 40min Express
- Over 60s Reformer Pilates
- Reformer Foundations
I have been teaching Pilates for over six years, and what I love most is helping people feel comfortable, confident and connected to their bodies through movement.
My teaching style is calm, supportive and focused on quality over quantity. I love slowing things down, focusing on form and creating movement that feels purposeful rather than rushed. I take a trauma-informed approach to teaching and always want my clients to feel safe, supported and in control of their own experience.

Classes and bio
- Signature Reformer
I love the idea of strengthening our muscles through slow and controlled movement. I see the benefits of Pilates in daily life, from improving posture through to core stability, and I believe there is always something in Pilates that will suit your goals. My favourite movement is the Pilates Hundred.
I am also a peanut butter lover, though I have more self control now.

Classes and bio
- Essence of Hatha Yoga
- Guided Meditation
I create a nurturing, supportive space where you can arrive as you are. My classes are grounding and gently uplifting, guided by breath and connection. There is space to be, to listen inwardly and to move with awareness. Beginners are very welcome, while experienced practitioners also have room to deepen their practice.
I specialise in illness and injury recovery and nervous system regulation, drawing on my studies and lived experience of recovery. Alongside public classes, I offer private sessions and tailored programs.
For me, yoga and meditation are practices of presence, a chance to reconnect with ourselves. I close my yoga classes with a poem, an offering for reflection to take with you as you step off the mat.

Bio
I love to share yoga that leads back to the breath and body, quieting the noise of the mind and finding a place of stillness. I began practising as a teenager for the physical side of it, and fell in love with the deeper layers: the philosophy, the nervous system support, the relaxation. I still love a bit of dynamic asana in the morning.
I trained at Grassroots Yoga in St Kilda and in Bodhidham, Nepal, including yin and Himalayan singing bowls, and I hold a Bachelor of Science in Psychology.

Classes and bio
- Vinyasa Flow
- Yoga Nidra
I started practising yoga over a decade ago as a way to balance my body, mind and breath, and that is what I hope you find in a class with me.
My aim is a welcoming space to tune in and restore, whether we are moving through a flow or settling into Yoga Nidra. Everyone is welcome, whatever you have or have not done before. I am an RYT-200 teacher, trained in India.
Outside of yoga you will find me with music, a book, or out running.

- Family Yoga
- Move, Breathe, Be
I will lead you through a gentle yet challenging Dru Yoga class, to release tension, build strength and increase flexibility.
I also teach kids and teens, which is where Family Yoga comes from: a class where parents and children slow down and share something together, and where nobody needs to have done yoga before. I am a 350-hour certified instructor and a breathwork coach.

Classes and bio
- Dynamic Vinyasa Flow
I have practised yoga since I was 13, and I teach strong Vinyasa flow. My classes build mind, body and breath connection by aligning breath with movement in continuous flow, strengthening the body through range, calming the mind and grounding your energy all at once.
My classes prioritise anatomical integrity, so you build strength and flexibility safely, and I encourage a high level of body, mind and self-awareness. My hope is that it keeps resonating off the mat.
