About the location

Prahran Summer Sessions Mat Pilates classes take place outdoors on the rooftop sundeck, overlooking the iconic Prahran pool. Recently refurbished, this resort-esque space provides a serene escape from the bustling city, where your mind can unwind, recharge, and bask in the uplifting atmosphere.

While you’ll be sheltered from sun and rain, you’ll still feel the breeze and changing outdoor temperatures, hear the distant hum of the city, and connect with the rhythms of the aquatic surroundings. This balance of comfort and immersion creates the perfect setting to stay grounded, cultivate mindfulness, and be fully present throughout your practice.

Note: the sundeck can only be accessed via the grandstand staircase.
