Brodie Donegan

Owner and Instuctor

My name is Brodie and I am a mum to 3 crazy children who keep me on my toes! I am super excited to have opened a studio here in Ourimbah (with the help of my amazing partner Nick!). I love all things movement, languages (and talking!!!), craft (especially fabric!) and travelling (although that doesn't happen nearly enough!) - and it appears exclamation marks! Lol.

​

In regards to my personal Pilates journey, I discovered the method following a traumatic car accident. It has help me move again and significantly reduce my overall disability and pain levels. While I was rehabbing from my accident (which included learning to walk again), I became inspired to help others regain their quality of life.

 

I have an Adv Dip of Nutrition, a Cert IV in Fitness, Pre/Post Natal Qualifications from Preggibellies and Pilates and a Cert IV and Diploma in Pilates from Breathe Education and am currently studying another Diploma in Pilates from Pilates ITC and a degree in  Exercise Physiology (very slowly!). I have been teaching solely Pilates since early 2017 and have been loving this journey and being part of this community.

 

If you haven't given Pilates a go yet, come try it out. I look forward to seeing you in the studio!

Kelly Toth

Pilates Instructor

Kelly's pilates journey began over 15 years ago when she randomly booked into a reformer class not really knowing what it was all about!

After that she was hooked!

​

She started her training for Pilates after years of self practice when she decided she needed to share this amazing exercise method with others!

Trained in Mat, Reformer and Cadillac, she has been teaching for 6 years.

Her passion is to teach others correct form, movement for all no matter of your fitness level. Don't be fooled Pilates is not just a stretchy workout!

Pilates is a functional form of fitness that aims to enhance mobility through strength, stamina, stretch and stability.

​

You'll be sure to walk away from Kelly's classes feeling that you have had a full body workout! AND with more energy than you arrived with!

​

You will find our fun loving, baton twirling Kelly on the timetable regularly on Thursday mornings!

Ella Driene

Ella first began Pilates as a young dancer recovering from an injury. It was always a part of her training and life alongside dance to keep her strong and mobile through out her studies. 

Ella studied at both EV and Bow Fulltime Dance training in Sydney and New Zealand School of Dance, receiving a diploma in Dance Performance. She always believed her true passion was performing until she fell in love with the pilates movement and methodology, which motivated her to continue her studies through Tensegrity Training completing a Diploma in Pilates. 

Ella has a deep passion for inclusiveness and creating a safe space for her clients to find freedom of movement and feel strong within their own bodies. 

Ellas classes are fun and full of movement that leaves you feeling muscles you didn't know existed. She is all about making movement enjoyable and educating you on how to move your body in a way that feels right for you while still challenging you.
