Show Notes
Gosh, this is a big episode. I recorded it in June 2021 towards the end of the fourth lockdown in Melbourne, where I have three studios. I talk about the effects of COVID on my family, business and life, and boy, is it a big one! The continuing ripples and waves of COVID impacts keep coming and shifting things in my business - sometimes for the worse and sometimes for the better. I have lots to say and some helpful advice for business owners struggling with the current environment. With love, always.

I have a front-row seat to one of the most exciting moments in the global wellness industry — and I want to bring you into it. Pilates has exploded. The global wellness economy is booming. And the opportunity for women who want to build a business in this space has never been bigger. In this episode I share what I'm seeing from the inside — the trends, the shifts, the opportunities — and why I genuinely believe we are just getting started. Whether you're a Pilates teacher, a studio owner, or simply someone who loves this world, this episode is for you.
Barre Body turns 15 in November 2026. Fifteen years of building, pivoting, failing, growing, and learning — and I have so much to share.
