Pilates that restores your Faith in your body!

I first joined Naturally Norris Pilates hoping to rehab chronic hamstring and Achilles injuries that had kept me from running and playing soccer. The 4:1 Studio classes—with individual attention tailored to my needs—made a difference from day one. Within the first year the pain was gone, and I was back on the soccer field for the first time in 15 years, playing several more seasons injury-free. I’ve kept coming because the sessions keep my body moving well and my joints pain-free—priceless when you’re chasing after three young kids. 

From the moment I walked in to Naturally Norris I knew I was in good hands. Kara is so knowledgeable, especially when it comes to managing injuries. On days where I feel too sore to function Kara tailors my session to work with where I am at and I can guarantee by the time I leave I will be moving more freely and in less pain than when I arrived. I am so grateful to Kara for working with my injury, and giving me the strength, confidence and ability to do things I never thought I would be able to do again. I even convinced my husband and now he regularly does pilates too. Trish is the icing on the cake – always a happy smile to greet you and organise sessions as needed. I couldnt live without Naturally Norris Pilates!

Naturally Norris Pilates has been key in my recovery from a severe ankle break. Kara and the team helped me regain more strength and range of motion than I expected. Their care, knowledge, and ability to tailor each session to my needs have made a real difference. I’ve returned to daily life—and even horse riding—with more confidence and mobility. The team always greets me warmly and checks in before each class. I’m so grateful to be on this journey with NNP and highly recommend them.

On recommendation , Naturally Norris Pilates with Kara as team leader has helped me immensely with my physical and mental well being. The gentle approach with a personalised programme in a calm setting is perfect for me. I enjoy my classes so much. 

Every session I have with Kara is different! I am always challenged to work that little bit harder to improve. My overall energy, stability & strength has been evident & looking always to improve on this. Kara’s knowledge of the body is Amazing- she is a very gifted instructor!

I’ve been going to Naturally Norris Pilates for years now! It is absolutely the best pilates studio with so much variety in equipment and such a pretty and warm atmosphere. Kara’s experience and expertise is unmatched and it shows clearly through her client outcomes. I particularly love the variability of exercises, every time I go I do something new and different and each session is always so specific to my unique needs. I had major post natal pelvic floor issues which have improved significantly just from ongoing pilates. My weekly sessions keep me strong and flexible, it’s exactly what I need to keep my body on track. Love this place, love my pilates!

I was pregnant in 2020 when my osteopath at MUNA recommended I go to NNP for my hip & back pain. Quickly Kara noted that I was hypermobile & tailored my workouts to this & pregnancy. Kara has seen me through my first hectic post-partum recovery and learning to trust my body again, to training for aerials, & through my 2nd pregnancy & post-partum. She & the team are great at accommodating to you & your body week by week but also through those big life/body changes. I have been able to bring my girls to parent friendly classes, & have the flexibility to breastfeed during class without question. When bubs get grizzly, Trish happily picks up bubba for some cuddles. I could not recommend NNP more, it is so welcoming & the people are where the magic is.

I have been doing Pilates at Naturally Norris Pilates for 6 years now.

I came to Kara hoping to get some relief from the various injuries I had. I was very nervous and didn’t trust my body, as I didn’t want to make things worse.

Since starting Pilates my body has gotten stronger, more flexible and more resilient, I rarely have  pain and am able to do things that I couldn’t do before. I still have flare ups occasionally, which are now less acute, and I recover quickly from them. On the days when I don’t believe in my body, Kara is there to encourage and believe in me.

Kara has created a community with Naturally Norris Pilates, which has grown over time. The studio is bright and welcoming, Kara and all the instructors are amazing, I feel safe, valued, cared for, and challenged here.

I would highly recommend Kara and Naturally Norris Pilates to anyone wanting to do Pilates.

Since joining a Naturally Norris pilate classes my strength and flexibility have improved greatly.  I tended to trip/fall often but have not had one fall in the last couple of years which has led to increased confidence when I’m out and about.  I enjoy that the classes, which are tailored to suit my needs, are held in a warm, safe and friendly environment with instructors who are engaging and encouraging.  

I’ve been seeing Kara at Naturally Norris for around 4 years now, and I can honestly say it changed my life. I had never been to a group exercise/ gym/ Pilates session before, and it was not really something I would have ever considered doing. After developing ongoing (and very painful) lower back issues, a friend convinced me to give it a go, and I’ve never looked back. Kara is honestly amazing! She works with each person individually to get the best out of your body, and my back (and the rest of me) has never been stronger or more pain free. I couldn’t recommend Naturally Norris Pilates highly enough!

Walking was becoming more and more difficult and painful, expensive shoe orthotics weren’t helping. Having surgery for cancer and treatment afterwards, I felt weak, so I limped into Naturally Norris not really knowing what to expect but looking for help. Upon meeting Kara, I knew I was in the right place, her knowledge and experience with pilates and how it helps the body to regain strength put any concerns I had away. Before starting pilates at Naturally Norris Studio, I hadn’t thought I would be able to travel much, let alone fly to Bali!!! I put in extra sessions to get airport ready and it was worth it. To Kara and her team, I am extremely grateful,  thank you. 

I highly recommend Naturally Norris Pilates, I do the 4:1 personalised program and absolutely love it! Kara creates an environment that feels just like home the moment you walk through the door!! I am currently a university student but prioritise the cost of going to Naturally Norris Pilates because I am achieving results and improving my strength, flexibility and body alignment; this is because Kara pays attention to detail as I’m performing the movements and provides exercises that are specific to my body’s areas of concern. It is worth checking Naturally Norris Pilates out! 

My daughter recommended I go to Pilates at NNP after I had been struggling with my knee and shoulders. Both Kara and the team have made sure that I felt comfortable in the studio and tailor exercises to me. Over the last few years my shoulder mobility has improved and I have regained flexibility. Classes have also helped me keep up with my two granddaughters! The NNP studio is a special space as it allows fellow clients to have friendly banter during sessions, which is such a great part of the NNP community. 

Kara is amazing. I cannot recommend her enough. Her knowledge is amazing, the best Pilates instructor I’ve come across in my life. She is knowledgeable, positive, engaging; and she helps me truly enjoy Pilates. Kara has a thorough understanding of the muscular makeup of the body and welcomes all ages. She challenges and motivates each person while focusing on the fundamentals of form and balance, adding on variations and fully explaining the key steps and target goal. I would highly recommend working with Kara.

When I came to Naturally Norris Pilates, I was seeking more than a workout—I needed healing, support & reconnection to my body. From day one, I felt welcomed, seen & safe. It wasn’t just about movement; it was about community and trust. Kara & the team took the time to understand my unique needs & limitations, tailoring the sessions to support my personal goals, especially focusing on my ankles. I now move with more confidence and ease, & I’ve gained a sense of balance that extends far beyond the studio. What started as a physical practice has become a vital part of my overall well-being. NNP has given me tools that I carry into every part of my life—and for that, I’m endlessly grateful.

I have been attending reformer Pilates classes with Kara for around 6 years. Kara has supported me through post-partum recovery twice as well as one pregnancy. Her knowledge and attention to detail is second to none. My programs have always been individualised and focussed on my personal goals. There is always something new in my programs which I find impressive after attending for so long. I have recently added a group reformer class to my week and have noticed a huge improvement in my strength due to increasing to two classes weekly.

Pilates is my favourite time of the week!

Since taking the leap into the world of Pilates I haven’t looked back, the team at Naturally Norris are so kind and welcoming. The strength I have gained over the last 12 months is insane! I couldn’t recommend the team enough, they take the time to make sure you are doing the movement correctly to get the most out of the sessions, no one is left behind. 

Kara and the team at Naturally Norris Pilates are total professionals at their game but more than that they genuinely care about you as an individual, your progress and your health journey. They encourage and support you each session through a variety of exercises. I don’t know how they do it but each session you will do something new or build onto an exercise you already know. If you are looking to start your Pilates journey then I highly recommend Naturally Norris Pilates.

Absolutely love my Monday morning classes, especially because they have tailored it to my needs and I’ve seen a vast improvement in my core! 

Thank you to Kara and the wonderful team. I was the worlds biggest sceptic, thinking Pilates wouldn’t help — how wrong I was. I spent 18 months ignoring a worsening lower back injury. After my initial assessment, Kara explained very clearly and in easy to understand terms what should help. It wasn’t going to be a 5 minute fix but she was confident that she could help. I went from having moments of struggling to move without intense pain to moving freely with strength and mobility in my lower back and other unused muscles. Now I’m the one telling everyone with an ache or injury: “Go do Pilates!” No matter your age or ability or appearance you’re cared for and supported at NNP.
