Who This Training Is Not For
Let’s be clear — this training isn’t for everyone.
If you’ve never done Reformer Pilates before
Our teachers will assume you’ve had at least 20 classes on a reformer. If not, spend some time in classes first (you can even do a trial with us).
If you’re looking for a quick or passive certification
This is a hands-on, in-depth training with real-time support and in-person components. It requires your presence and participation.
If you’re not open to feedback or community learning
This space is built on growth, reflection, and collaboration — not just ticking boxes.
You’ll need to be ready to show up consistently, practise regularly, and apply what you’re learning.
This isn’t about perfection. It’s about effort, curiosity, and willingness to grow.
If you’re ready to move with intention, build real skills, and be part of something bigger than just exercise, we’d love to have you.
And if it’s not for you, that’s okay too.

"Hidden gem in Penrith!! With reformer Pilates, a wide variety of yoga classes and regular workshops for beginners AND teacher training. An absolute gem of a find in Western Sydney."
- Angie
"Linda has been a key mentor and friend throughout my journey as an instructor. Her reputation in our community spoke volumes. As a newly single mum, I was finding my feet, and Linda generously took me under her wing.
She guided me patiently—from attending her classes to standing beside her on stage to eventually teaching full classes. After every session, she offered kind, constructive feedback and unwavering belief in my potential. One quote of hers has always stayed with me: “A candle loses nothing by lighting another candle.”
Linda helped me land my first job, supported my ongoing training, and to this day, is someone I turn to for guidance. Her mentorship laid the foundation for my confidence and passion as an instructor and business owner. I’m forever grateful for her encouragement, generosity, and belief in me."
