Catherine O’Donnell

Studio Pilates Instructor

After doing Clinical Pilates as a pre and post-natal patient for her third pregnancy, Catherine could feel a strong difference in her own body’s strength and ability.  At this point she decided to do the Certificate IV in Pilates and went on to complete her Diploma in Clinical Pilates in 2016.

Catherine enjoys the mental as well as physical experience she gains from Pilates

Catherine likens Pilates to mindfulness, in that it takes so much control and concentration to complete some of the moves that she can think of nothing else. She also enjoys the body transformation it provides. Whether it’s for rehab,  fitness, strength, or stress release, Pilates offers something for everybody.

Catherine’s point of difference at the clinic is that she offers a semi-tailored Pilates experience in our small studio for those who don’t require rehab but may not want to go to a gym or large Pilates studio.

Catherine has been teaching Pilates since 2016, and most of her clients are people in their mid to later life wanting to look after their bodies, build strength and fitness in a small and inclusive environment. ‘I give my clients a tailored experience whilst also enjoying a bit of sweat and music in a fun and relaxed environment’.

Catherine continues to update her learning through professional development at Pilates Association Australia, self-led classes, and external Pilates classes.

Catherine has done extra professional development courses in:

  • Active Ageing
  • Pregnancy and Postnatal
  • Perimenopause and Menopause

Outside of the clinic, Catherine enjoys running, playing golf, personal Pilates sessions, and spending time with her three gorgeous kids.

Catherine’s Studio and Virtual Pilates classes run on Mondays and Thursdays. You can book online (go to ‘group sessions’) or call 9830 7044
