Hen dos, bridal parties and event Pilates on the Mornington Peninsula

Looking for a fresh, feel-good activity for a hen do, bridal weekend or special celebration on the Mornington Peninsula? Pilates is a lovely way to bring everyone together, whether your group wants a gentle stretch and breath-focused session, a lively mat class with music, or a more gentle, mindful experience. I create event Pilates that is tailored to your group’s energy, fitness level and timing, so everyone finishes feeling relaxed, connected and ready to celebrate.

Why Pilates works for parties and events

Pilates is low impact, easy to adapt for different fitness levels, and wonderfully social. It helps settle pre-wedding nerves, improves posture for photos, and offers a calm, centred moment in the middle of a busy weekend.

It also works beautifully for hens, bridal parties, birthdays, milestone celebrations, girls’ weekends away, or small corporate team days where you want something active but inclusive.

What I offer for hen dos and events

  • Tailored class styles: mat Pilates, gentle mobility, stretch and strength for mixed-ability groups.
  • Locations: your holiday house, private home, Airbnb or chosen local venue across the Mornington Peninsula. Beaches aren't included in packages as licenses are required at additional cost
  • Personalisation: classes adapted for pregnancy, injuries or different experience levels.
  • Little extras: calming playlists, guided breathing, mats to take home as a keepsake can be provided at extra cost.

Who this is perfect for

Everyone. Pilates is accessible to beginners while still enjoyable for people who move regularly. It suits groups who want something restorative rather than hectic, but still sociable and memorable. Many bridal and Hen groups say this becomes one of the highlights of their weekend.

How a typical session runs

  1. I get any updates from your group,and any special requirements or new information is taken on board.
  2. Gentle warm-up and mobility and breathing.
  3. A tailored Pilates sequence that's right for your group.
  4. A calm close with stretching.
