Studio Levels Byron Bay

Studio Levels Byron Bay is a boutique training space built around a clear idea: combine the control and foundations of Reformer Pilates with progressive strength work. The studio welcomes locals and visitors for personalised Private and Semi-Private sessions, with coaching from experienced trainers. Rather than presenting Pilates and strength training as separate activities, the approach brings them together in sessions designed to support steady, long-term progress.

The space is also the base for Studio Levels’ education work. Pilates instructors can take part in professional development through the online Strength Reformer Masterclass, which includes structured lessons, teaching resources, workshops and full-length workouts. The programme is intended for teachers who want to introduce more strength-focused programming into their classes, with material covering areas such as beginner strength training, upper- and lower-body programming, tactile cueing and core work. The site also offers group options for studio owners looking to train their teams.

Studio Levels was founded in Byron Bay by Sofie Coleman, a physiotherapist, Pilates studio owner and industry educator. Her method grew from seeing clients plateau after several years of Pilates when they did not also include strength training. Drawing on physiotherapy, Pilates education and practical studio experience, Coleman developed sessions using Reformer work alongside equipment such as dumbbells and spring resistance. That background gives the studio a more considered training focus than a general-purpose gym, with the emphasis on coaching, programming and individual needs.

This is a natural fit for solo clients wanting close guidance, or for two people or a small group who prefer a Semi-Private setting over a large class. It will particularly suit Pilates clients seeking a stronger training stimulus, as well as instructors wanting to expand their teaching skills. The Byron Bay studio’s in-person masterclasses for 2026 are listed as sold out, but the online education is available on demand, while private studio sessions provide the main local training option.
