On paper, your recovery should look a certain way.

A back injury takes this long. A knee rehab follows that plan. But your body hasn’t read the textbook, and neither has your life.

Your pathway depends on how you move every day, what your body has been through and how much you’re ready to commit to change. That’s why we’ll never promise you a timeline. What we will do is ask the right questions, show you what we see in your body and help you understand it, so you’re the one in control.

That’s what our Clinical Pilates Pathway is built on.

You start with a one-on-one assessment with a clinical Pilates therapist. Then you have 5 semi-private sessions with no more than 4 people in the room.

Every session is built for you, every time you walk in. If your hip is cranky on Tuesday, we work with your hip on Tuesday. If you’ve had a great week, we take you further. Your program changes because you do.

Book your assessment and start moving toward your own goals, not toward someone else’s expectations of how your recovery should go.

Comment MOVE and we’ll reach out to you.

I was told I’d have to learn to live the life of a disabled person.

I was in my twenties. My back hurt every single day. I’d tried the chiro, the physio and the gym. I even became a gym instructor and a swimming instructor, because getting stronger was what everyone told me would fix it. None of it worked.

Then on a last-ditch trip to America I walked into a Pilates class. Nothing changed overnight. But for the first time someone asked me to notice my body instead of fighting it.

Twenty years later I’m 50. I waterski most weekends (yes, in Darwin), I ride my bike, I surf and I go snowboarding in Japan every year. My body is better now than it was at 25.

I’m not telling you this to show off. I’m telling you because it’s the story we hear every week in the studio. Someone’s been told there’s nothing more to be done, and they’ve started making their life smaller to fit around the pain.

Your body isn’t broken. You just haven’t found what it needs yet.

It’s never too late to start. What would you do with your life if pain wasn’t calling the shots?

If you’re looking for a diagnosis go see your physio first.

Hip bursitis is one of the most common things we see in clients over 50. A lot of the time it travels with its sidekick, gluteal tendinopathy. That’s irritation of the tendons on the outside of your hip.

Here’s the tricky part. Plenty of people come to us sure it’s their lower back. The ache sits in the buttock, the side of the hip or down the outside of the thigh, so it’s easy to blame your back. Sometimes it’s your back. Often it’s your hip asking for help.

You might notice:

• Pain lying on that side at night
• Aching when you stand up after sitting
• Stairs, hills or standing on one leg making it worse
• Tenderness when you press on the outside of your hip

It’s linked to hormonal change, losing strength around the hip and the way we load our bodies day after day. Pushing through it doesn’t help. Resting it forever doesn’t either.

This is what we do in clinic. We find out what’s going on, take the pressure off the joint and build strength where you need it. Then you can walk, sleep and get through your day without that ache.

Our Clinical Pilates Pathway starts with an assessment, then 5 semi-private sessions with a clinical Pilates therapist.

Are you going to keep blaming your back, or find out what’s going on?

If you have new or severe pain, see your GP or physio first.

Yes and No

Here’s your most common questions answered in 30 seconds

Did you know the reformer is just one piece of apparatus in a Pilates studio?

It’s taken off, and I love it. But Pilates was designed as a whole system, and the reformer is only part of it.

At Encore we use all of it. The reformer, the wall tower, the springboard and the mat. Each piece of equipment meets you where you’re at.

Some days we add a spring to help you, some days we take one off. As you get stronger, we change the load so your body keeps learning.

That’s why our classes are small. You move in your own way, with your own needs, and we want to see that and teach you how Pilates fits your body.

So which piece of equipment haven’t you tried yet?

You will love Ana 💕 for her friendly, inquisitive personality and her ability to incorporate fun into every class she teaches.

In her spare time Ana is a secondary school teacher so make sure you are on time and and you’re attentive when you arrive!

Ana mostly teaches reformer and tower classes for us and she is a huge advocate for the sauna and cold plunge so if you’ve got questions, she’s happy to chat to you about how much she has benefited from our contrast therapy.

You’ll often see Ana in class, practicing on her own or meditating in the sauna - she’s definitely one to walk the talk and her own experience speaks volumes for the work she does with us.

Be sure to get to some of Ana’s classes on Monday and Wednesday 5pm and 6pm, her classes fill up fast but as a member you get priority booking up to 30 days in advance.

See you in class!

The moment I stopped training like I'm 25 and started training like I want to be strong at 85, everything changed.

I stopped chasing a number on the scale.
I started chasing the ability to lift the grandkids, carry my own shopping, get up off the floor without thinking about it.

That's what strength after 40 is really about, for men and women. Independence. Longevity. Feeling at home in your body for decades to come.

Whether it's your back, your knees or your energy that's been holding you back, Encore is your place. Come and build strength for the long game. Link in bio.

Your teachers went back to school this week 📚

Our team in-service was on Gyrokinesis, a movement method created by former dancer Juliu Horvath. It works the spine in waves, arcs and spirals, all led by the breath

It changes how we see the body: how the joints circle, how the bones move, and how the whole body connects.
Why does that matter to you? Because when we understand movement better, we teach better.

We don’t just stop at Pilates courses. We keep learning from respected movement methods from around the world that sit beautifully alongside Pilates, so every session you have at Encore is shaped by more knowledge, more care and more experience.

This is how we lead the way in Pilates in the NT. 💙

If "just push harder" worked in menopause, we wouldn't all be this exhausted.

You've been told to train harder, eat less, try more. And you've done it. You're one of the most disciplined people you know.

So it's not a willpower problem. It's an approach problem.

Your body has changed. The way you train should too.

If you're ready to stop pushing and start training smarter, this is your sign. Encore is built for exactly this stage of life. Book through the link in bio.

✨ You’re not alone. So many women in our community feel exactly the way you do right now.
✨ Your 40s, 50s and beyond aren’t a sentence. They’re an invitation to get to know yourself better and to feel strong, capable and at home in your body again.
✨ You don’t need to be fit to start. You just need to take the next step.

The build-up is the perfect excuse to move somewhere cool, calm and air-conditioned. 😉

We know you. We get it. And we’d love to meet you. 💙

Come as you are, leave smiling.
