Clare’s Pilates journey began many years ago, with her first Pilates Mat class at a dedicated studio. From her first class to now, Clare has grown to understand the rehabilitative benefits of Pilates as she gained relief from many different injuries.
It was after the birth of her second child, an experience that put her life in the balance, that she embraced it as a holistic practice for nourishing mind and body. Pilates played a vital role in her eighteen-month journey to recovery. A journey that was not only restorative, but transformative. It imbibed in Clare, a renewed zest for life and a drive to help others through the restorative practice of Pilates.
Clare’s experience provides a unique perspective and compassion for women who have experienced complicated births and birth trauma. Pilates was part of her healing journey and it is this healing that she wishes to share with others.
With the driven determination to be a positive, strong and inspiring role model for her daughters, Clare sought a career change. Moving from a corporate world of insurance claims she became a certified practitioner of Pilates Mat. Clare then went on to do her Diploma of Studio & Rehabilitation Pilates Instruction.
Clare has studied meditation and mindfulness, integrating the benefits of a holistic approach into her practice. This inspired her to create a Pilates for Better Sleep class. Clare continues to look for ways to calm, restore, heal and invigorate mind, body and soul.

Jorja is a bright, bubbly and enthusiastic person with a warm heart. She has always been interested in the human body, movement, injury rehab and helping others work to be the best version of themselves.
Jorja started her pilates journey during her late teens, looking to find better self awareness, strength and mobility. As an ex-dancer, she knew the mobility and strength she once had was now lacking.
Jorja found Lani and immediately fell in love with Pilates. Every week she felt stronger, more confident, was achieving new skills and having so much fun.
Whilst finishing her Bachelor of Sport and Exercise Science the opportunity to complete a comprehensive Pilates course was made available through Lani at The Pilates Jeanie, and Jorja jumped at the opportunity.
Jorja loves working with a wide range of clients, each with their own unique goals and intricacies. She lives for the moments her clients progress through to harder exercises, complete a task without any annoying niggles or pains once had, or fall in love with Pilates the way she did.
When Jorja isn’t teaching or completing Uni study, she is Reading books next to her Doggo’s, spending time with her partner, at the Gym or planning her next exciting travel location!
