Space - The Mount

For the visual learner.

Cued by highly qualified instructors and physios, our on demand reformer model lets you choose a class at a level that suits you and your capacity on the day.

If you’re someone who learns by watching, the kiosk gives you a visual reference for every movement. If your mind drifts off, you can simply look back to the screen and check your position, pace or next movement. Rather than relying on the person next to you and hoping they’re not doing the same thing.

For some people, hearing an instruction and translating it into a body position isn’t quite as easy as seeing it.

Open invitation to send is a message anytime if you would like to come and give it a go, no pressure or pitch from us. Just see if it is a good fit.

For the health benefits, for the beauty benefits, for the longevity benefits, for the whole body relaxation, for the twenty minutes for you.

Pilates is resistance training.

The springs create resistance and your body works against it. The more you progress, the more you can challenge it.

It’s a principal called ‘progressive overload’, simply it’s adding extra demand on your body over time. This causes positive stress on your system which makes you stronger over time.

Apply progressive overload by -

Adding a heavier spring.
Introducing weights.
Slow the movement down for more time under tension.
Increase the range of a movement with control.
Try a more challenging class level.
Increase the amount of time you move for over a week.

Resistance doesn’t always have to look like a barbell it can look like a beautiful ivory reformer.

As always if you ever need help with structuring a plan for yourself we are happy to help.

Accessories wall meets Made of Tomorrow

Before your session begins, your class overview shows you exactly what you’ll need. Everything else is within easy reach on the accessories wall. Pilates balls, 1, 2 and 4kg weights, resistance bands, wrist and ankle weights, spare headphones, help guides and MoveActive grip socks.

And underneath, three stainless steel cubbies keep your belongings tucked away while you move.

What are the busiest times?

Theres only been four hours in the 10 weeks we have been open that all reformers have been booked. Meaning whatever time suits you is generally available.

What we see if that in the night before there are minimal books and they come in as people know more about what their day looks like.

At this stage you can book 2 minutes before your session starts and there is generally a reformer for you. As we grow this may change but we do recognise we will have a cap of memberships to protect our experience.

Our memberships are intentionally very low commitment (no minimum term) as we want the experience to be what keeps you choosing Space.

You also can book two weeks in advance so if you take this approach you would never come into booking issues.

Everyone has a favourite.

Their favourite book.
Their favourite coffee order.
Their favourite reformer.

We know #3 and #4 have their people.

If you want to bring your people into Space, members can add a friend casually whenever they like through the app or bring someone new on us.

Our ethos really centres around the flexibility to make Pilates a consistent part of your routine, with expert guidance there when you need it.

There are no minimum contracts, no late cancellation fees if you realise you can’t make it or need to reschedule and the freedom to move your membership up or down (2 a week, unlimited, add a pod or two) as life’s seasons roll in. You can book your session just minutes before and add on a guest if you want to come with a friend.

If something doesn’t feel quite right, favourite the exercise and our in-house physio or Pilates instructor with a sport and exercise science degree can come and meet you to provide guidance.

Bureta road is open (just for a week we heard through the grape vine) so if you would like to come and try an on demand session and be able to park right outside, this is your week 🤍
