About Arc Pilates
Arc Pilates is a boutique Pilates studio just off High Street near Preston and Thornbury, where the focus is on precise, personalised movement in a calm and tranquil space. With both reformer studio work and matwork on offer, it caters to a wide range of bodies and goals, from first-timers building foundations to experienced movers refining their technique.
The studio is especially well regarded for its prenatal and postnatal classes, with members describing a relaxing, supportive atmosphere where they learn how to move safely through pregnancy and rebuild afterwards. Instructors are praised for their deep knowledge, their ability to adapt exercises for limited mobility, and their knack for gently pushing people further than they thought possible.
What distinguishes Arc Pilates is the depth of teaching experience behind it, with instructors trained across Melbourne, London, New Zealand and Sydney. Sessions are designed around individual needs rather than a one-size-fits-all routine, making the studio a strong fit for anyone who values careful instruction, community and a Pilates practice that meets them exactly where they are.
