Downtown Yoga & Pilates

It is with great sadness that we need to announce that Downtown is closing. We are so thankful for your support, we love this community and it’s heartbreaking to say goodbye.

Our last day open will be this Sunday 27 August.

We are deeply grateful for you, our members, and for all of your support over the past few years.

Even though the studio is busy now, the fact is the effects of Covid set the business back enormously, we tried our best to rebuild and despite an incredible recovery, it hasn’t been enough, and it’s not sustainable. We are truly sorry this is so sudden. We would have liked to have had more time.

We are proud of what we have created. We put our hearts into building something beautiful, radical, accepting, where everyone could be themselves, be valued, and move freely.

Thank you to our brilliant team, and all of the teachers and staff over the past 5 years. Thank you to every person who has been part of this community.

We hope that while this studio will end: the ideas, the energy, the values, and the differences we have made will be lasting.

We are looking forward to welcoming you in to celebrate our final days. Please be kind to our teachers this week and direct any questions via email [email protected]

What you need to know:
- Final day open is Sunday 27 August
- All membership payments have been stopped from today
- If you had a payment due to go through today or later in the week and you want to attend until Sunday please email us so we can process a partial payment (depending on your membership)
- We will be running an additional community class on Sunday, 10am Vinyasa with Tea and will look at adding extra classes if needed
- We will be sharing where you can find your favourite teachers after we close
- Bring a buddy will not be available this week because we need to prioritise members getting into classes
- We are selling clinical Pilates equipment, please get in touch if you are interested in any

We are truly so sorry this beautiful thing is ending.
I am so proud of the space and community we created.
We will miss this, but we will truly miss you.

It was wonderful.

Thank you all xx

Want to become a GREAT Pilates Instructor? Enrol our Mat Pilates Instructor Training this November.
⁠
Developed over three decades by physical therapists, sports medicine and fitness professionals. The STOTT PILATES Intensive Mat Plus course covers Mat Pilates exercises in depth with a complete breakdown, including goals, modifications, muscular emphasis, movement sequencing, so appropriate programming and effective cueing can be made for each client.⁠
⁠
The course presents how to teach the Essential and Intermediate STOTT PILATES Matwork repertoire safely and effectively to a range of clients in both private and group settings. Learn a framework to creating intelligent and mindful exercise which serves as the foundation for tailored exercise programming. The approach is based on the STOTT PILATES Principles which incorporate recognised movement patterns and qualities and integrate the fascial system. ⁠
⁠
Our goal is to set you up for success as a Pilates teacher. Along with your face to face course hours you can use Downtown Studio's facilities for practice teaching, self practice and observation. ⁠
