Prenatal Pilates
We are passionate about helping women move through their entire pregnancy and beyond.
Supporting You Through Every Step of Pregnancy
At All For One, we understand that pregnancy is a transformative journey, both physically and emotionally. That’s why we’ve designed our Prenatal Pilates Classes to help you stay strong, healthy, and connected to your body while preparing for childbirth and beyond.
With expert guidance from our highly trained physiotherapists, our classes are tailored to the unique needs of pregnancy, ensuring that every session is safe, effective, and empowering.
Did You Know?
Only 30% of pregnant women in Australia meet the recommended guidelines of 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week. Staying active during pregnancy has significant benefits for both mother and baby, but concerns about safety or a lack of guidance often hold women back.
At All For One, we’re here to change that. Our prenatal Pilates classes provide expert-led, safe, and personalised sessions to help you prioritise your health and well-being during this incredible time.
Why Is Exercise During Pregnancy Important?
Pilates during pregnancy isn’t just about staying active—it’s about supporting your health and your baby’s development. Our prenatal Pilates classes help:
Relieve Discomforts: Strengthen and stabilise muscles to reduce back pain, pelvic discomfort, and joint strain.
Boost Mental Well-being: Reduce stress, improve mood, and increase energy levels.
Prepare for Labour: Build endurance, strength, and flexibility for a smoother labour and delivery.
Support Recovery: Promote better postpartum recovery by maintaining muscle tone and core strength during pregnancy.
Enhance Baby’s Health: Improve placental function, promote healthy growth, and support your baby’s long-term development.
What to Expect in Our Prenatal Pilates Classes
Our Prenatal Pilates Classes are led by experienced physiotherapists. Whether you’re in your first trimester or gone past your due date, our classes are designed to meet you where you are.
Here’s what’s included:
Tailored Exercises: Safe, evidence-based Pilates movements that focus on core strength, pelvic floor health, and overall strength + stability (ready to lift that pram!)
Gentle Aerobic Movement: Low-impact exercises to boost cardiovascular health and keep you energised.
Stretching and Mobility Work: Relieve tension, improve posture, and maintain flexibility as your body changes.
Labour Preparation: Learn breathing techniques, posture optimisation, and exercises to support a smoother birth experience.
With small group classes, you’ll receive personalised attention to ensure every movement is safe and effective.

Join Us for Prenatal Pilates in a Safe, Supportive Space
Take the next step in caring for yourself and your baby with our Prenatal Pilates classes. Whether you’re looking to relieve discomfort, prepare for labour, or simply stay active during pregnancy, our expert-led classes are here to help.
Stay strong, energised, and confident throughout your pregnancy with All For One. We can’t wait to support you on this incredible journey.
Regular movement during pregnancy is associated with many up-sides. It can help with reducing muscular pain and discomfort, improving mood, maintaining and gaining strength, addressing the postural changes that accompany your growing belly, and many more.
Our Prenatal Pilates classes are also appropriate if you have been diagnosed with a musculoskeletal condition including pelvic girdle pain or pelvic floor dysfunction, as your program is tailored to you. We work closely with pelvic floor physiotherapists, osteopaths, chiropractors and other health professionals that are helping manage your pain, so that we can work as a team to get you feeling your best during your pregnancy and after birth.

You’ve already seen someone about this. Maybe a few people. You’ve done the exercises, followed the advice, had the scans — and you’re still not where you want to be. The pain keeps coming back, or it never fully went away, or nobody’s been able to give you a straight answer about what’s actually going on. If that sounds familiar, Emma is the person you need to see next.
Emma is an APA Titled Musculoskeletal Physiotherapist — a credential held by a small number of physios in Australia, requiring Masters-level postgraduate study and formal competency assessment by the Australian Physiotherapy Association. It’s the highest clinical recognition in musculoskeletal physiotherapy. She’s also completed training with the Watson Headache® Institute for complex headache and migraine presentations. In short: when the standard approach hasn’t worked, Emma has the clinical depth to find what’s been missed.
Emma’s appointments are longer than a standard physiotherapy session, and they’re structured that way deliberately. Complex problems need time — time to piece together the full picture, time to assess thoroughly, and time to explain what she finds so you actually understand what’s driving your pain. You won’t be rushed, and you won’t leave with unanswered questions.
As Principal Physiotherapist at All For One, Emma also sets the clinical standard across the team. The rigour and precision she brings to her own caseload shapes how every physio in the clinic operates.
Emma has advanced training and a strong clinical focus in: complex musculoskeletal injuries, persistent and chronic pain, neck and back pain including disc and nerve presentations, headache and migraine assessment and management, sporting injuries, surgical rehabilitation, inflammatory presentations and osteoarthritis, and difficult tendon pain.
If you’ve been going around in circles with a problem that isn’t resolving — the longer you leave something complex, the more layers it tends to develop. It’s worth seeing someone who can cut through it.
Book an appointment with Allison →
Allison’s path to physiotherapy isn’t the usual one. She studied Kinesiology and Exercise Science in the US, trained alongside world-renowned physical therapists in New York City, then moved to Australia and completed her Doctor of Physiotherapy at the University of Melbourne. That combination of international training and deep clinical experience gives her a perspective most physios simply don’t have.
She has three specialist areas that set her apart. If you’re a runner dealing with an injury, trying to get back to running, or wanting to run stronger — Allison gets it from the inside. She’s a passionate runner herself and has completed advanced education in running injury prevention, rehab, and retraining. If you’re dealing with jaw pain, clicking, locking, or headaches related to your TMJ — Allison has completed advanced training in TMJ assessment and treatment and can get to the bottom of it. And if you’re going through menopause and want tailored exercise to manage symptoms and build strength — she has specific expertise in that too.
Beyond her specialist areas, Allison treats the full range of musculoskeletal conditions — neck and back pain, shoulder injuries, joint stiffness, sports injuries — with the same thoroughness and attention to the bigger picture.
In your first session, Allison will take the time to understand not just the sore spot but how you move, how you live, and what’s getting in the way. She’ll explain what she finds in plain language and build a plan with you that fits into your actual week — not a handout you’ll forget about by Thursday.
Allison commonly helps with: running injuries and performance, jaw pain and TMJ dysfunction, neck and back pain, joint pain and stiffness, sports injuries and rehabilitation, menopause-related strength and symptom management, and Clinical Pilates.
If you’ve been pushing through something hoping it’ll settle down on its own — it’s worth getting it looked at properly. These things almost always respond better the earlier you get onto them.
Book an appointment with Emily →
There are some things you don’t bring up at brunch. Leaking when you laugh. A heaviness that doesn’t feel right. Pain during intimacy you’ve never told anyone about. Pelvic pain you’ve been told is “just part of having a baby.” These are the things Emily helps with every single day — and nothing you say will surprise her.
Emily specialises in Women’s Health and Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy. She’s completed postgraduate studies in the field and trained alongside some of Australia’s leading pelvic health experts. Before women’s health, she cut her teeth in elite sport — working in the medical department at Carlton Football Club (AFL) — and she brings that same clinical precision to every appointment.
A lot of women wait months — sometimes years — before seeing someone about pelvic health, because they’re embarrassed, or because they’ve been told it’s normal. It’s not something you have to just live with. And in Emily’s room, nothing is awkward. You can ask the questions you’ve been sitting on, and they’ll be taken seriously.
In your first appointment, Emily will listen properly, explain what’s going on in plain English, and work with you on a plan that makes sense for your body and your stage of life. Whether that’s preparing for birth, recovering from a C-section, rebuilding your pelvic floor, returning to running, or treating pain that’s been holding you back — the focus is always on getting you to where you want to be.
Emily commonly helps with: pelvic floor dysfunction (incontinence, prolapse, pelvic pain), prenatal and postnatal care, birth preparation, C-section recovery and abdominal rehabilitation, return-to-exercise assessments, pain during intimacy, general neck and back pain, and Clinical Pilates.
If you’ve been putting up with something because you weren’t sure it was “bad enough” to see someone about — it is. The earlier you address it, the simpler it usually is to treat.
Book an appointment with Debbi →
I’ve worked in postnatal wards at St John of God and The Alfred. I’ve trained alongside some of Australia’s leading pelvic health physiotherapists. And I’ve supported hundreds of women through the most vulnerable, confusing, and physically demanding stages of their lives. Whatever you’re going through — I’ve very likely seen it before, and I take all of it seriously.
I hold a Bachelor of Science in Physiotherapy from Curtin University and a Postgraduate Certificate in Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy from the University of Melbourne. My focus is helping women with pelvic health conditions, pregnancy and postnatal care, and the kind of symptoms that are common but rarely talked about — leaking, heaviness, pelvic pain, pain during intimacy, or a core that doesn’t feel like it’s come back together after birth.
I know these things can feel awkward to bring up. A lot of the women I see waited a long time before booking — because they were embarrassed, or because someone told them it was “normal.” It’s not something you just have to live with. And you won’t feel awkward about it with me.
In your first appointment, I’ll take the time to understand everything — your symptoms, your history, and what you actually want to get back to. I’ll explain what’s going on clearly, answer every question, and we’ll build a plan together. No jargon, no rushing, no generic handouts.
I commonly help with: pregnancy and postnatal care (pelvic girdle pain, abdominal separation, return to exercise, pelvic floor preparation and recovery), pelvic floor dysfunction (incontinence, prolapse, urgency, pelvic pain, pain during intimacy), core and abdominal rehabilitation, pessary fittings for prolapse management, general musculoskeletal pain (back, neck, joints), and Clinical Pilates.
If you’ve been putting up with something and you’re not sure if it warrants seeing someone — it does. These things almost always respond better the earlier you get onto them.
Book an appointment with Gemma →
Gemma is a mum of three young kids, a former competitive gymnast and gymnastics coach, and — since having her third baby — a half-marathon runner. She knows what it’s like to rebuild your body after birth. Not from a textbook. From doing it herself, three times over, while juggling small children and everything that comes with it.
That personal experience shapes how she works in the clinic. Whether you’re dealing with pelvic pain during pregnancy, a core that doesn’t feel like it’s come back together after birth, back pain that flared up and never left, or you’re desperate to get back to exercise but not sure where to start — Gemma has been there, and she can guide you through it.
Gemma holds a Master of Physiotherapy and has worked across a range of clinical settings since 2013. Her background in gymnastics gives her a deep understanding of movement quality, strength, and body confidence — which she brings to everything from gentle post-natal rehab to helping mums return to running, lifting, or higher-intensity exercise.
In your first session, Gemma will meet you where you’re at — physically, emotionally, and practically. She’ll assess what’s going on, explain it clearly, and build a plan that’s realistic for your life right now. Whether that’s early post-natal movement or training for a running goal, the focus is always on what matters to you.
Gemma commonly helps with: pregnancy-related back and pelvic pain, postnatal recovery and return to exercise, abdominal separation (DRAM), pelvic floor rehabilitation, running after baby, general neck and back pain, knee and hip pain, and Clinical Pilates.
If you’ve been waiting for things to “just get better on their own” since having your baby — they usually don’t without the right guidance. You don’t have to figure it out alone.
Book an appointment with Tori →
Something’s not right and it’s not getting better on its own. Maybe it’s a neck that’s been stiff for weeks. A lower back that flares up every time you think it’s settled. A shoulder that’s stopping you from training. A knee that’s taken away the things you used to do without thinking. Whatever it is, Tori can help you get to the bottom of it and get you moving properly again.
With over ten years of hands-on experience across private practice in Australia and the UK, Tori has helped thousands of people with the full range of musculoskeletal conditions — from acute sporting injuries and post-surgical rehab to persistent, complex pain that hasn’t responded to other treatment. She holds a Bachelor of Physiotherapy with Honours from Monash University and has completed advanced training in Clinical Pilates.
Tori also has a specialist interest in Women’s Health Physiotherapy — supporting women through pregnancy, post-natal recovery, pelvic health conditions, and the strength and hormonal changes that come with perimenopause and menopause. If you’ve been told to “just rest,” had your pain dismissed, or you’re not sure whether what you’re experiencing is normal — Tori has seen it before, she takes it seriously, and she’ll help you work out a clear path forward.
In your first appointment, Tori will take the time to understand what’s actually going on — not just where it hurts, but why. She’ll explain what she finds in plain English, answer every question you’ve got, and build a plan with you that fits your life — not a generic exercise sheet you’ll never look at again. Whether it’s getting back to sport, picking up your kids without wincing, sleeping through the night, or just moving through the day without dreading the stairs — the focus is always on what matters to you.
Tori commonly helps with: neck and back pain, shoulder injuries, knee and hip pain, post-surgical rehabilitation, sports injuries, headaches and jaw pain, pregnancy-related pain, pelvic floor conditions, and perimenopause and menopause support.
If you’ve been putting up with it and hoping it’ll sort itself out — most of these things respond better the earlier you get onto them. It’s worth getting it looked at.
Book an appointment with Phoebe →
Most physios focus on either general musculoskeletal pain or women’s health. Phoebe does both — which means she can treat your sore back and your pelvic floor in the same appointment, and see how one might be connected to the other. It’s a fuller picture, and it often makes a real difference to how quickly things improve.
On the musculoskeletal side, Phoebe treats neck and back pain, shoulder and knee injuries, headaches, and persistent muscle tension. She’s trained in dry needling for stubborn trigger points and pain that isn’t responding to other approaches. On the women’s health side, she works with pelvic floor conditions (incontinence, prolapse, pelvic pain, constipation), pregnancy and post-natal care, and integrates Clinical Pilates into rehab for strength and recovery.
Phoebe is especially passionate about pelvic floor education — helping people understand and connect with a part of their body that’s rarely talked about but affects everything from continence to core strength to confidence. If you’re not sure whether your symptoms are “normal” or worth seeing someone about — Phoebe’s the person to ask.
In your first appointment, she’ll take the time to understand what’s going on — listen properly, explain things clearly, and build a plan with you that’s specific to your body and your goals. Whether that’s getting through pregnancy more comfortably, sorting out a pelvic floor issue, or just getting rid of the back pain that’s been ruining your mornings — the focus is always on what matters to you.
Phoebe commonly helps with: neck and back pain, shoulder and knee injuries, pelvic floor dysfunction (incontinence, prolapse, pelvic pain), pre- and post-natal physiotherapy, dry needling, and Clinical Pilates.
If something’s been bothering you and you haven’t gotten around to doing anything about it — it’s usually easier to sort out than you think, especially when you catch it early.
