The online classes are a brilliant compliment to the Studio sessions. Donna's skills in cueing and explaining exercises, is exemplary. Sometimes I forget that I'm not the only one in the class - it's almost like I'm getting a one-on-one session. And all this with a big dose of humour, fun and humility.

Was the first equipment based Pilates Studio established in the Illawarra by Donna Oliver in 1995. Comprehensively trained instructors, hand picked to provide a high level of personalised service. Tailored programs based on YOUR body's needs and goals, graded from safe gentle exercise to a high level challenge.
The Reformer is one of the original Pilates apparatus created by Joseph Pilates himself. It was created to help people improve their strength, flexibility, stability, and mind-body connection. A movable carriage or platform is attached to springs and rolls back and forth on wheels. The springs provide resistance or sometimes assistance.
Online booking system will not permit cancellations after the 24-hour timeframe has lapsed and the studio must be notified if you will not be attending our reserved appointment. This is essential to allow your spot to be filled by any "waitlist" clients. Clients may transfer to another session or class of equal or lesser value within their package rules according to availability ONLY if the studio has been advised of their inability to attend.

My physio recommended Donna and Wollongong Pilates Studio, to continue work on a chronically inflexible lower back. Best self-care decision I have made in my life! My back has improved over time, with personalised attention during class, taking my issues into account. I also now have strategies for stretches and fascia-release exercises to do at home, when I realise I need it. Online Zoom classes are also great. Thanks WPS!!

Pilates at this studio has made a tremendous difference to my life. I feel stronger. I have less pain in my joints and I have little muscles forming - I’ve got Abs!
What I like most is the ample time that the instructors give to helping you to understand the movements thoroughly and to get the most benefit. That and also the encouragement. I feel suitable challenged and encouraged at the time.

I could not be more grateful for Donna and her team, who have helped me exceptionally through all my body complications and knowledge. Donna has the eye for the even smallest details, which develops a more sharpened result. If you are looking to reduce pain, move better or to just enhance your strength and performance, you can find it all with Donna and her team at Wollongong Pilates Studio =)

Pilates classes at this studio are run by extensively qualified professionals who cater to the needs of individuals within a group class. Classes are well structured; exercises are cued clearly with attention to correct alignment and execution in a compassionate and relaxed setting. Teachers prioritise care of their clients. Their extensive training and experience has equipped all staff with the ability to cater to the needs of professional dancers/sports persons, injured clients and ageing concerns with equal expertise and care. I highly recommend Wollongong Pilates Studio.

I highly recommend Wollongong Pilates Studio. The experience and expertise of staff is exceptional.
I've worked specifically with Donna and she really takes the time to listen to your issues/goals then works out a plan that is tailored to you. Everything is explained, worked and then adjusted based on your body's needs. I can't recommend the studio enough!
