Welcome to Bodhimaya Pilates Centre, located in Bondi Junction. Established in 1999, our studio has been a proud part of the Bondi Beach community since 2002. Our small, cosy studio provides a welcoming and inclusive environment for all individuals looking to enhance their physical wellbeing.
Curious about our name? Bodhimaya is a composite word that holds deep meaning. 'Bodhi' is a Sanskrit word that signifies awakening or enlightenment, and it is also the tree under which Siddhartha Gautama achieved enlightenment. 'Maya' has various interpretations in different languages, one being 'Mother'.
In Advaita Vedic philosophy, maya symbolises the illusion of transitory physical reality that obstructs our spiritual reality. Additionally, our studio pays homage to the great soul, poet, and author Maya Angelou.
Our team is dedicated to helping you on your Pilates journey. Chrystene Carroll, the founder of Bodhimaya Pilates Centre, leads a group of experienced and qualified instructors who are passionate about helping others achieve their fitness goals. We believe that success is not only about achieving physical goals but also about loving oneself and how one goes about achieving those goals.
Pilates is a system of exercise and injury rehabilitation that has been used by dancers for over 80 years. It is a holistic approach that focuses on developing strength, flexibility, balance, and control. The rehabilitative effects of Pilates are evident to those who have experienced or witnessed them. We often receive referrals from medical professionals, such as doctors, physiotherapists, osteopaths, and chiropractors.
At Bodhimaya Pilates Centre, we prioritise the overall physical and mental well-being of our clients. The precision and concentration required in Pilates can help centre the mind and create a sense of peace and tranquilly. Our studio is not for those seeking intense, high-impact workouts. Instead, we offer a more sustainable and effective way to improve your body's potential through controlled movements on resistance-based equipment.
Whether you are looking to rehabilitate an injury, increase mobility, prepare for pregnancy, or simply improve your fitness level in a welcoming and professional environment, Bodhimaya Pilates Centre is here to support and guide you.
