As a big advocate of Pilates,
I want to make Pilates accessible to Everyone!

In Mat Pilates, we use your body weight to increase your core and body strength- improve flexibility, coordination, mobility and overall well-being. You can also expect to work on balance, breathing, and your pelvic floor. Mat Pilates targets the deep muscles surrounding your joints for a well-aligned body.

I will explain how to activate your deep core structures and pelvic floor correctly. You can safely strengthen your back and progress as your strength builds weekly. It’s never dull as I take pride in offering different movements to keep you motivated, but at the same time, I won’t have you doing the splits or backbends.

Don’t worry about keeping up, as the pace is adaptable to all. I work hard to make you feel welcome and comfortable in a larger group setting. You are not just a number; I am here to help you work towards your health goals. I guide all participants with verbal cues and will make adjustments or recommendations for individuals to make the most out of their session!

So Why Mat Pilates?

  • A strong core and increased overall body strength. You will
    feel muscles you haven't felt before!
  • Access affordable Pilates.
  • Eliminate or ease stiff muscles that will take the pressure off your joints.
  • Pilates focuses on the many things the body needs, not just strength, cardio, or flexibility.
  • You will feel healthier and more mindful of your body and posture.
  • Increase your immunity and reduce the likelihood of injuries.
  • It suits all levels with variations and modifications provided.
  • It is not one size fits all – Feel safe with modifications and variations provided.

  • The class is led by a Registered APMA Level 4 Pilates Practitioner with over 11 years of experience.
  • A sense of commitment and accountability to stick with a Health Plan.

The Pilates that I offer is based on Traditional Pilates developed by Joseph Pilates.

Testimonials From Student of Pilates Just for You

I just completed Mary's 10-day challenge and it was fantastic! I've had a go at Pilates in the past, but I never quite understood how I was supposed to feel. Mary is so good at explaining and guiding you through the movements. Even in online classes, I feel totally supported and she always manages to say just the right thing if I'm getting off track with the movement. Her classes are subtle and hard work all at the same time, and some of the movements leave me feeling like I've been at the gym for an hour. I highly recommend Pilates Just For You. Heather Park Orchards.
After a short break from Pilates, Mary quickly helped me to regain the correct techniques to meet my goals from a fitness perspective. I love the ‘personalised’ service that Mary offers in her Pilates classes – if I have an injury, she tailors my activity around this. I always feel motivated and encouraged in Pilates!
Alicia, Blackburn North
I had a medical history of severe back pain and visited an Osteopath every 2 weeks for relief. Things weren't good. My life changed when I was introduced to Mary with personal one-on-one Pilates classes. I feel amazing. I have more energy, my body is toned, I now have core strength to support my back and best of all I now don't suffer back pain! 
Samantha Box Hill North
I love doing Pilates with Mary. I have have done Pilates in the past at various places with differing styles and I honestly can say that Mary is on top of the list. I have been with Mary for over a year and love every minute that I am at her studio. The routines of the session never seem dull and boring, I am always challenged and love that I am toning and strengthening without the “bulk”. I am very grateful that I have crossed paths with Mary and looking forward to being pushed more
Jo, Blackburn
We have been doing Pilates with Mary for a number of years, juggling classes around our kids and work. It’s been an important part of our week! Adrian has chronic knee pain and we are parents to 3 young kids. Pilates has been excellent as a foundation for posture, flexibility and core strength. We love Mary’s ability to respond to our specific sore points and by the end of the class there is always relief.
Bonita and Adrian Box Hill North
Before I started Pilates I had chronic back pain due to spondylolisthesis. I was having trouble carrying the shopping, or even walking properly after doing something as simple as vaccumming. My Oesteopath recommened pilates to strengthen my core. I am so glad that they recommended Mary, The classes are small and you get one on one contact. Mary targets every session to your needs in regards to how your body is feeling on the day.
Mel O Box Hill
I was attracted to Pilates classes because it was in my local area. Mary, who runs the classes, is very welcoming, friendly, dedicated, well presented and a very motivated instructor. The classes are small in number, allowing you to receive constant assistance and instruction on how to perform the exercise correctly.
