After your Introduction, we require payment in advance for all sessions you attend. Payment must be made before your class to ensure your place.
Online payment is powered by Stripe using Glofox Payment. As such we do not hold any credit or debit card details when you pay online.
We also accept cash in advance of sessions being booked however we do not hold cash on site and therefore may not be able to provide exact change at the time of purchase.
As of July 2019 you can no longer claim Pilates through your private health provider. However we encourage you to inquire with your health fund as we are aware that many have wellness packages that include Pilates.

What to wear, what to bring
Comfortable, stretchy attire is ideal for Pilates.
For hygiene reasons, please wear clean socks, preferably grip-socks. These are available in studio to purchase.
Jumpers without hoods is preferred as hoods can interfere with equipment and exercises. We also discourage wearing sharp jewellery and chewing gum during sessions.
Towels are provided, however you are more than welcome to bring along your own personal towel, as well as a bottle of water to keep hydrated during your session.
Please turn off your mobile phones during your Pilates session to ensure you and other clients are not disturbed.
Introduction to Pilates for new Clinical Pilates clients
We require all clients wanting to do Clinical Pilates to undertake an Introduction to Pilates with us, irrespective of whether they have taken Pilates instruction elsewhere.This is to ensure the safety of all new clients and for insurance purposes.
Anyone wanting to attend our fpFIT:Fast Pilates or Reformer Pilates classes do not need to attend an Introduction session prior to attending classes at our studio.
However if you have not used Pilates Reformers in the past, please let your instructor know before your class starts so they can give you a basic introduction.
Small children
To preserve the quality of instruction, protection of equipment and the safety of children, we can only accept parents/carers with babies up to six months of age in the studio whilst sessions are being held.
Insurance requirements
Before starting classes we require all clients to sign and date a Conditions of Exercise and Waiver statement. This will cover your use of the studio and equipment and in the event of any injury. You can do this via our app when you sign up or when you attend your first session.
We cannot accept any clients attending sessions at the studio without first signing this statement. No exceptions.
