Question 1

How can I book group classes or private sessions at Bodhi Align Pilates?

OR
Reach out to Luisa directly at luisa@bodhialign.com.au or on 0432 104 177

Question 2

Where is best to start?

Accepted Answer

If you are new to Pilates or have specific injuries it is highly recommended to start with 3-4 Private Sessions. 
If you wish to continue private sessions after this on-going, this is a great way to progress in your goals and strength.

If you prefer a group setting and are new to Pilates/Reformer, we encourage 3-4 private sessions initially to learn the basics of the Pilates Method before joining group classes. If you have done reformer before you are welcome to join any class on the schedule!

Alternatively if Private Sessions are too tricky to get to based on your schedule, a great way to ease yourself into group classes is joining our Stretch & Restore class on Saturdays or our Reformer Flow Classes!

Can't wait to see you in the studio!

Question 3

What is recommended I wear?

Accepted Answer

Comfortable clothing such as activewear, shorts, leggings or anything stretchy is great!

Question 9

What if I'm running late?

Accepted Answer

We understand delays happen, traffic, work meetings/appointments running overtime etc
Due to our group classes running for 45 minutes, we don't allow late arrivals past 5 minutes of class starting.
For private sessions, your allocated late time is 15 minutes past your scheduled time.

Please contact the studio as soon as possible to let us know.

Question 10

I am pregnant, which class should I attend?

Accepted Answer

Pilates is such an amazing form of movement during pregnancy and a safe way to keep your body fit and mobile in preparation for birth.
We highly recommend contacting the studio prior to booking into any class.

If you have never done Pilates before, we recommend 2-3 private sessions first and then if you prefer group classes you can move into our classes.

If you have done Pilates before you are welcome to book into any class or private session ideally not express classes (run on a Wednesday). 
These classes are faster paced and at times involve jumping/abdominal work and may not be safe at certain stages of your pregnancy.

Question 11

What is your studio address?

Accepted Answer

Due to safety, privacy and being a home based studio, the address is not on our website. It will be texted/emailed to you prior to your session for all new clients coming to group and private sessions.

Our studio is located in Traralgon.

Question 12

How to do pronounce your studio name?
