Mind and Movement Pilates

You don’t have to stop feeling nervous before you say yes…

8 weeks. ✈️🇻🇳

That’s all that stands between now and our Pilates by the Mekong Retreat.

And I know there are women following along who have looked at this retreat more than once and thought…

I would LOVE to do this.💖

And then the doubts arrive.

Can I justify the money?
Can I take the time away?
What if I come alone?
What if I don’t know anyone?
Am I fit enough?
Am I really brave enough to travel to Vietnam by myself?

Here’s the thing I’ve learnt from hosting retreats:

Sometimes you say yes while you’re nervous.

You book the trip.
You get on the plane.
You walk into a room where you don’t know everyone.

And somewhere along the way, you realise just how capable you are.

Because this retreat is about so much more than Pilates.

It’s about waking up in Vietnam with nowhere you need to rush to.

Moving your body.
Exploring somewhere new.
Eating incredible food.
Breathwork, massages and beautiful experiences.
Laughing around a table with women who were strangers a few days earlier.

And having an entire week where you get to be on your own priority list.

If you’ve been waiting for the fear to disappear before you make the decision, maybe you don’t need to.

Maybe this is your moment to take the leap.

Because eight weeks from now, you could still be thinking “I wish I’d gone…”

Or you could be packing your bags. 🧳

Join us for Breathwork tomorrow, Friday 24th July from 1.30pm-2.30pm. 🌬️

Breathwork is a simple but powerful tool that helps lower stress, boost immunity and focus, lowers blood pressure, improves sleep and lowers inflammation.

The benefits last long after class finishes and anyone can do it. Even if you don’t have any prior experience.

To join us please send me a dm or head to the Mind and Movement Pilates website to book.💖

Your nervous system deserves a reset. 💜

When was the last time you gave yourself an hour with no expectations… no notifications… nowhere to be?

This Sunday 12th July, join us for a deeply restorative Breathwork Class designed to help you slow down, reconnect with yourself, and regulate your nervous system through the power of your breath.

In just 60 minutes you'll:

✨ Release stress and tension stored in the body
✨ Calm an overactive mind
✨ Improve nervous system regulation
✨ Feel more grounded, present and connected
✨ Leave feeling lighter, clearer and deeply restored

Breath is one of the most powerful tools we have for reducing stress, easing anxiety, improving sleep and supporting overall wellbeing—yet it's something we rarely take time to consciously practise.

If life has felt busy, overwhelming or you've simply been putting everyone else first, this is your invitation to pause and refill your own cup.

🗓 Sunday 12th July
🕔 5:00pm–6:00pm
💰 $25 per person

Whether you're completely new to breathwork or already have a practice, you'll be guided through a safe, calming experience suitable for all levels.

Spaces are limited, so book your spot and give yourself the gift of an hour dedicated entirely to you.

📩 DM us to reserve your place or book online on the Mind and Movement Pilates website.

Sometimes the best workouts happen outside the studio. 💛

Today we swapped the reformers for teacups and spent the afternoon enjoying High Tea at the Yarra Valley Chocolaterie. 🍫

Delicious food, beautiful pastries, plenty of chocolate, lots of laughter and (of course!) a little Pilates trivia.

🫶🏻One of the things I love most about our studio isn't just helping people move better, it's watching friendships grow and creating a community where everyone feels welcome.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and made the afternoon so special. It was wonderful to see clients getting to know one another, sharing stories and enjoying time together away from class.

Here's to more movement, more connection and many more community events together.

🧘🏼‍♀️Our next event is Breakthrough Breathwork on Sunday 9th August- dm for details.
