Studio Guidelines /
Community
We are a conscious and inclusive community for all people regardless gender, body shape, colour, ethnic background, age and disability. Every community member has the right to feel safe and respected.
We are a community free of judgement, assumption and shame. Any persons disrespecting our community will be asked to leave the studio, their sessions refunded and their account terminated.
Don’t be late
Please arrive 5-10 minutes before class. Late comers will be unable to join as they disrupt the experience for our other community members. If you’re late you forfeit the session + are considered a No Show.
Empty reformers, chairs or mats at the start of class will be given to our waitlisted friends/keen walk-ins. Always check-in with your teacher before class, so they can mark you as attending.
Preparing for class
Wear comfortable clothing or active wear. It is not about what you wear but how you feel!
Socks are compulsory (grippies preferred and available to purchase), water bottle, sweat towel, your own mat for designated classes (optional as we have some in the studio).
Layer your clothing if you are subject to temperature changes -the studio is air conditioned and you could feel cooler on arrival and during cool downs
Personal belongings
Baskets are available to store your personal belongings during classes. Pilates Lane is not responsible for your personal belongings. No personal belongings to be in the vicinity of your apparatus.
Pilates Lane is a space for mindful pilates practice, during classes please respect your fellow community members pilates experience & if wearing a wearable device (eg, watches connected to phone), turn your phone on to Silent or Do not disturb. If you must receive a notification, put your device on vibration only.
Leaving early
Inform your teacher at the start of the class. Minimum disruption to the class is requested when leaving earlier.

Cancel your classes for the week, stay at home until you feel better. Pilates Lane is committed to be a healthy environment for all our community members and teachers. Email challengeyourself@pilateslane.com.au and we will endeavour to suspend your membership for a minimum of 7 days within your weekly cycle.

Please wait until the previous class has left the room before entering for the next class. If you need to pre-stretch, check with your teacher if the room is available.
