“I am loving everything about Sense of Space”
— Erin Bourne
“I joined your online classes from Europe. I did your classes 5 years ago when I lived in Perth for a project. They still are the best Pilates classes I have done! ”

“I just wanted to thank you and Martina, I have been thoroughly enjoying the sessions with her…(admittedly sometimes there is a small internal ughh do I have to? ). Finding the time for an hour is seldom easy, and I have done 15 mins then had to rush off then come back later in the day so not all classes are done in an hours session.

I am feeling so much better, I have had numerous days when I have forgotten about my back and had pain free days again…yippee!!!! I have days when I wake and my first thought is not my back is so sore even having just rested it all night. When I saw my remedial massage lady and she even commented about how much better everything felt.

So onwards and upwards, it’s so good being able to do a class when it suits me!”

“Gemma and Martina are not only highly experienced practitioners and teachers who understand contemporary Pilates in a way few people in our community do. They are also open-hearted, wise and beautiful people, inside and out. I always come away from class feeling lighter, taller, more flexible uplifted. Wonderful!”
— David Michie
“I started with Sense of Space about 2 years ago and it has totally changed my life! As an office worker either slumped or tense at my chair my back needs the stretch! Both Martina and Gemma are just wonderful teachers. The classes are challenging with only ever encouragement from both Gemma and Martina and you will always be surprised at what you can do!”
— Jenni Swan
“It took me until my 30’s to find an exercise class that I love coming to each week. Pilates and slings with Sense of Space keeps me grounded and keeps me motivated. Martina is absolutely fantastic. Her students love her care, her knowledge and her generous and authentic teaching style. Every class is different and each term is designed with an end goal in mind. I recommend Sense of Space to everyone!”
— Kira Rikkers
“I’ve tried many pilates and yoga studios but Sense of Space is outstanding. All the teachers are highly professional, inspiring and friendly... I’ve found what I was looking for at last!”

— Barbara Napier
“Friendly and welcoming. Essential to keep limber and flexible and strong. Especially for ageing bodies. Gemma and Martina have expertise and bodies to envy. They embody what they teach. Only physical activity I have ever found that I go to with pleasure.”
— Anna Ross
“Great support for all abilities - lovely people.”
— Megan Crust
“For a friendly , encouraging and professional Pilates experience I would highly recommend a visit to Sense of Space, one visit and you will be wanting more. I am looking forward to a long association with the instructors and participants at Sense of Space.”
— Susan Coid
“I so so so so love your online classes - it gives me the opportunity to do the class about 2 times per week which has just been adding to my strength. I guess I hadn’t really noticed how strong I was becoming. My flexibility has improved no end since I started but I hadn’t thought of the strength I’ve gained in my arms, back and hips... My greatest surprise coming when we lifted the outdoor setting. When we first moved in we had to shift it into position and move it about 5 m - I remember needing to take a break and complaining about how heavy it was. This time I picked it up and walked it off a truck - I had to lift it pretty much up to my face to angle it out of the truck and to be honest I was surprised at how light it was!!! ”

“I don’t know what I would do without these classes!”
— Kira
“ I’ve been coming to Sense of Space since they started. It’s the only exercise program that I’ve stuck with long term. Martina and Gemma are fantastic - very caring and very professional. My body can’t live without its twice weekly dose of Pilates. I’m committed for life!”
— Judith Nash
“Expert tuition... I’ve been coming for more than a year and I still learn something new every class. The team are very nurturing and encouraging and I’m inspired by their ongoing enthusiasm and commitment to making every class brilliant! My body and mind (and family) are benefiting from my time spent at SoS - thanks team!”
— Erin Bourne
“Instructors who are sensitive to the way I perform the movements and ensure I push myself to get the most out of the stretches and exercises, yet without risk of over-extending. I have attended SoS for 6 years and still learning exciting new ways to move my body and nourish my muscles.”
— Patrica Turner
“I had a significant back injury in March this year – disc protrusion and numbness from lower back to toes inclusive of the outer side of my leg the whole way down. This led to months of Physio, hydro & remedial massage….after the initial ambulance ride and lots of meds, more than I have ever had! After clearance from my Physio and lots of emails back and forth I ventured to Gemma’s pilates class. In hindsight I was quite scared, as it had been a long road. Gemma was very patient with me and made modifications as I needed. The class has varied each week which has helped different parts of the body and kept me interested. I have not been sore after the classes and found I have had less aches and pains. I was still getting a lot of generalised back ache after being on my feet all day which has diminished almost completely. Thanks Gemma, I am loving your classes and feeling so much better for them!”
— Nerine Horabin
“Martina and Gemma do a great job - they are both very knowledgeable instructors who cater the exercises for each participant. I always finish each class feeling reinvigorated.”
