Frequently Asked Questions

1 / Who is Pause Pilates for?

Pause Pilates is perfect for new Mums looking to prioritise their physical and mental well-being while juggling life with a baby. Whether you're easing back into exercise or simply need a moment for yourself, we’re here for you.

2 / Do I need any Pilates experience?

Not at all! Our sessions are tailored to your needs and fitness level, whether you’re a complete beginner or a Pilates pro.

3 / What do I need for a session?

Just a bit of space in your home and comfortable clothes you can move in. We’ll bring the rest, including mats, props, and all the good vibes.

4 / How long are the sessions?

Each session lasts approximately 45 minutes to an hour, giving you enough time to work out and still get back to mum life.

5 / Can my baby be with me during the session?

Absolutely! Your baby can be by your side, or if you need a moment of peace, we can help keep an eye on them while you focus on yourself.

6 / Are you certified?

Yes, I’m certified through Barre Body and hold up-to-date St John Ambulance First Aid and CPR training for adults, children, and babies. I also have a valid Working With Children (WWC) check, a police check, and full insurance, so you can feel confident in every session.

7 / What are the benefits of Pilates for new Mums?

Pilates helps strengthen your core, improve posture, and ease tension—especially in areas like your back and shoulders that take a hit during pregnancy and early mum life. Plus, it’s great for mental clarity and stress relief.

8 / When can I start Pilates after having a baby?

We recommend waiting until you’ve had your six-week postpartum check-up and your doctor gives you the green light to start exercising.

9 / What areas do you service?

We currently offer at-home sessions in Sydney's Inner West, Eastern Suburbs and North Shore areas. If you’re unsure whether we cover your area, drop us a message, and we’ll let you know!

10 / What if I need to cancel or reschedule?

Life happens—we get it! Just let us know at least 24 hours in advance, and we’ll do our best to accommodate your needs.

11 / Can I buy sessions as a gift?

Yes! A Pause Pilates gift session is a thoughtful way to support a new mum in your life. Contact us for gift options.
