Our Team
Natalie
Founder and Instructor
Welcome to our studio in Bowral! I'm Natalie, the Founder, and I'm excited to introduce you to the transformative worlds of Pilates.
My journey with Pilates began during my career as a Ballet Dancer, where it played a crucial role in my daily strength and conditioning regimen. It not only helped me avoid hip surgery but also became a passion that guided me throughout my over 14-year professional dance career around the globe. Upon retiring from ballet, Pilates was always my next calling.
Driven by the desire to share my love for these disciplines, I established this boutique studio ‘Core Pilates Bowral’ as a welcoming space for our community. Here, we blend the strength-building elements of Pilates with the grace and poise of Ballet techniques, offering Reformer, Mat, Wunda Chair, Circuit, and Barre classes, as well as privates..
Under my guidance, we'll focus on sculpting your muscles, improving your posture, and deepening your mind-body connection. Together, we'll embark on a journey of self-discovery, pushing past limits and celebrating the beauty of movement.
I invite you to join us at our studio and discover firsthand what we offer.
Brooke
Instructor
Hi, I’m Brooke!
I have a passion for creating thoughtful, supportive sessions that empower you to feel strong, capable, and connected to your body.
I'm a mum of two and understand the importance of movement that fits into real life - whether you’re navigating early motherhood, rebuilding confidence, or simply looking to move in a way that feels good.
With over a decade of personal Pilates practice and a formal reformer certification, my approach is mindful, grounded, and encouraging - and tailored to meet you right where you are.
Kate
Instructor
Hi, I'm Kate — a mum, Diploma-qualified Pilates Instructor, and passionate advocate for movement, mobility, and helping people feel strong in both body and mind.
As a mum myself, I understand how challenging it can be to make time for your own wellbeing — and just how rewarding it feels when you do.
With over five years of experience, my classes are focused, intentional, and welcoming to all levels. Whether you're completely new to Pilates or looking to build on your existing practice, you'll be supported every step of the way.
Expect thoughtful movement, clear guidance, and a positive environment where you can build strength, confidence, and a deeper connection to your body.
I believe movement should be both effective and enjoyable, helping you leave each class feeling stronger, more capable, and energised for everyday life.
Lisa
Instructor
With a career spanning food, marketing, wellness and fitness, Lisa brings a unique blend of experience and passion to every class she teaches. Her journey in the fitness industry began in her twenties as a Les Mills RPM instructor, where she discovered a love for movement and the benefits of low-impact exercise.
Lisa first turned to Pilates while navigating her own health challenges and quickly experienced its life-changing impact. Inspired by the results, she dedicated herself to learning and teaching the method, helping others experience the same benefits.
Now, with more than 15 years of industry experience, Lisa is an experienced Pilates instructor who is passionate about helping people move well, feel stronger and build confidence in their bodies. She believes in the power of consistent, mindful movement and creating sustainable habits that support long-term wellbeing.
Known for her approachable and encouraging teaching style, Lisa has guided hundreds of clients on their health and fitness journeys, making Pilates accessible, enjoyable and effective for people of all ages and abilities.
While her warm smile and calm nature put clients at ease, regulars will tell you she has an angel face but a devil instructor streak. Lisa is famous for pushing clients beyond what they think they’re capable of, challenging them to embrace the shake, feel the burn and leave every class stronger than when they arrived.
Fun fact: Lisa loves starting her day with a walk in nature. Her daily dose of fresh air and #morningmagic helps her feel grounded, energised and ready for whatever the day brings.
