Discover Transformative Pilates at the New Our Pilates Sorrento Studio
Our Pilates is thrilled to announce the opening of its first-ever Sorrento Studio, located at Suite 6, 119-125 Ocean Beach Road. Our Pilates offers a modern take on traditional Pilates, blending original principles with fresh exercises for an invigorating and challenging experience. Co-founded by Brooke Pitt (nee Hogan) and Hannah McKimm, the studio offers the highest quality pilates classes based on the foundations of strength, stability, flexibility, and control, with a collection of curated classes that will be sure to support and challenge you no matter your fitness level or goals.
Following the success of the Our Pilates app launch, the idea of launching the studio felt like a natural next step for Brooke and Hannah. The idea to create this space came from their desire to attend a premium Pilates studio in Sorrento – a studio where you instantly feel transported and can leave your day at the door.
“As working mums, we have poured our hearts into this dream, and seeing it come to life is a dream come true. We are so excited to open our first studio and to do it in our local town makes it even more special. This milestone means the world to us, and we can’t wait to share our classes and this beautiful space with our community,” says Brooke.
The studio offers a diverse range of classes tailored to various fitness goals, including the high-intensity ‘Sweat and Sculpt’, muscle-toning ‘Strength and Power’, signature ‘Energise and Tone’, technique-focused ‘Flexibility and Form’ and a specialised ‘Mums and Bubs’ class. With just 8 reformer beds per class, personalised attention is guaranteed, ensuring remarkable results.
‘Sweat and Sculpt’ combines cardio bursts with classic Pilates moves for a deep muscle burn and an endorphin boost. ‘Strength and Power’ focuses on muscle strength and tone using heavier springs and a mix of fast and slow-paced movements. ‘Energise and Tone’ blends stretch and burn for a full-body workout that enhances technique, form, and overall body strength. ‘Flexibility and Form’ enhances Pilates technique, flexibility, and core stability, making it ideal for beginners and those seeking improved alignment. ‘Mums and Bubs’ allows new mums to exercise with their babies, offering postpartum care in a supportive environment.
Co-founder, Physiotherapist and Pilates instructor Hannah McKimm has consistently developed a passion for helping others through movement. With 12 years of experience and a Master’s degree in Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy, Hannah combines her knowledge of the human body with her love for Pilates to curate each class.
“Every class has a purpose, designed to get your body moving, wake up your muscles, and leave you feeling refreshed and energised. Expect high-quality Pilates, a variety of exercises and the use of studio equipment to challenge your mind and body. With 8 reformer beds in our studio and a brilliant line-up of specialist teachers, you are guaranteed a personalised experience each time you visit,” says Hannah.
The interior design, crafted by the best at Victoria Merrett Architecture, is warm and welcoming, with a sense of luxury that makes you feel instantly at home in the studio. This inviting space is a sanctuary for rest and rejuvenation, featuring a harmonious mix of neutrals, concrete accents, and timber floorboards. The scalloped sheer roof cascading from the ceiling and sheer-lined walls add to the dreamy, cloud-like ambience, creating an atmosphere of softly natural light and elegance that encourages you to unwind and recharge.

About Hannah McKimm
Physiotherapist, accredited Pilates teacher, mum, wife and business owner, just to name a few. Working as a physiotherapist for over 14 years, Han has seen first-hand the physical and mental benefits of regular Pilates. After attending her first Pilates class she became completely hooked and went on to complete her full Pilates accreditation through the Australian Physiotherapy and Pilates Institute.
Having a Master’s degree in Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy, Han combines her knowledge of the human body with her love for Pilates to formulate each class. Exercise has always been a big part of Han’s life, in particular, running, yoga and Pilates. Now more than ever, Han understands the importance of being able to exercise at home. Her daughter, Haper, was born in September 2022 and being able to practice Pilates at home, during naps or between feeds has been so helpful for recovery, regaining strength and taking a little time out to reset mentally.
Every class has a purpose, designed to get your body moving, wake up your muscles and leave you feeling refreshed and energised. You will flow through each routine seamlessly, not noticing where one exercise ends, and the next begins. No matter how you feel, you will find the perfect flow in our extensive collection of classes. Listen carefully and intently to Han’s cues throughout each class, even the smallest tweaks can make a big difference.
