About Bodhi Pilates Co
Bodhi Pilates Co is a warm and inviting reformer studio that is dedicated to promoting wellness. We believe in creating a sense of community and providing a welcoming environment for all.
We are a small group reformer Pilates studio in Murwillumbah. We love creating a sense of connection within our community. We believe in making fitness enjoyable and accessible to everyone and we welcome individuals of all fitness levels to join our classes.
We prioritise building connections and having fun while working towards our fitness
Bodhi Pilates Co is a space that brings the beauty of nature indoors and features a large colourful hand painted mural creating a sense of being outside. We have incorporated reclaimed wooden furniture, such as desks and storage boxes into the studio’s design. This not only adds a funky and unique touch to the space but also helps reduce waste and minimise the environmental impact.
