Lighten Up | Yoga. Pilates. Wellness.

Negative experience: This was not a beginner's class, the room was insanely crowded and the instructor wasn't explaining the exercises enough for people with 0 experience in pilates or yoga. The variations that were given on exercises didn't match up with the injury information we gave when booking the class. The class felt as if it was written by AI as the instructor kept looking her phone and changing her mind on exercises whilst attempting to explain them to us. Alot of people around me were looking just as confused and the instructor ignored that. Will not be back unless the class size is capped and actually made for beginners with proper explanation of the exercises.

Negative experience: The instructor was lovely but unfortunately the class was just very over full where there wasn't enough space for everyone, the instructions were unclear and not supportive for beginners especially when advertised as a beginner class. It was a shame that I couldn't see the instructor with most poses and had to rely on the people beside me for what to do.

Fantastic experience: beautiful place with fantastic instructors

Fantastic experience: Beautiful studio. Clean, light and airy. Clients are beautiful, super down-to-earth and friendly. It's a very wholesome experience teaching here <3

Fantastic experience: A peaceful space to let go and reenergise while being guided by experienced & creative teachers that support beginners to more seasoned Yogi's

Positive experience: The studio has a welcoming vibe & presence about it. It’s great being able to share the space with like minded people, yoga teachers & students who hold an interest with their own mental & physical health & wellness. I always feel great after leaving a session .

Fantastic experience: Ive been a member and regular participant of the Flinders Street lighten up yoga since 2015 and Ive loved every minute. From the classes to the workshops to the yoga teacher training I couldn't recommend a better experience for your mind body and soul it is a fundamental life changing event. The thing that makes lighten up are the dedicated teachers offering tailored yoga practice with a great mix of strength, flow, deep breathing, and relaxation. And Im sure there is a lot of work done in the background to make this all happen. The biggest surprise for me has been the doorway that opened in my heart for eastern philosophy and spirituality - you cant make this sort of stuff up. lovin life baz The journey begins....'Begin!'

Fantastic experience: I have been looking for a new Pilates class since moving to Townsville a while ago. Finally found Lighten Up and love the classes. I attend Carolina’s classes twice a week and really enjoy them. Carolina has a great sense of humour, clearly explains all moves and really pushes participants to their individual levels, which I really like. I definitely recommend Lighten Up to anyone looking for great Pilates.

Fantastic experience: Pilates and barre are the reasons I attend Lighten Up - both classes are always fun and challenging and leave me feeling like I've worked hard. Excellent instructors who are always willing to give modified movement options for those days your body is a bit stiff. :)

Fantastic experience: I thoroughly enjoy going to Lighten Up for their classes. I love how the teachers outline progressions and regressions of each exercise - especially because I'm a beginner and still learning about the practice. Each teacher I've had has been wonderful and sets the space with amazing energy before each class and makes me feel so relaxed by the time I leave.

Fantastic experience: Bec is the kindest - most warm hearted, genuine person you'll meet and her and her team have the most people space to wind down. x
