“My mama said is genuinely the best studio I’ve been to, on every level. Lisa, Bec, and all the incredible instructors are all incredibly talented but so generous with their teaching and provide such a welcoming environment for people. Every time I have walked out of that studio, I’m always in an incredible mood from the infectious good vibes and great workout. There’s also a great variety of classes to choose from, and the classes provide great builds and points of difference every week to keep you improving and growing. The vibe class is the best hour you’ll spend on a Saturday. I look forward to getting back in for some classes when I can. I would recommend this place to those both in and out of the west, would be worth a trip across town.”
“My Mama Said is my favourite fitness community, not only in Melbourne but in the entire world! Not only are a variety of classes offered that are modified to meet all skill levels, but the instructors are incredibly skilled and knowledgeable and assist you with necessary modifications to prevent injury and help you get the most out of your classes (aka a good workout). I have been able to apply Bec’s descriptive technique support from Core Fit, Circuit, and Barre classes to classes at other studios where instructors don’t provide as much support around form; her classes are reliably always a great workout. Lisa’s Friday Barre is the absolute best; her energy, enthusiasm, and warmth make working out SO much fun. My Mama Said is more than a workout studio; it is a community and family that feels like home. I have been to many pilates, barre, and yoga studios in Sydney and California and have yet to find anything that compares to My Mama Said.“
“Melbourne’s inner west is super lucky to have such a unique, supportive, inspiring, & welcoming fitness studio as MMS. Lisa and her crew of professional instructors provide a safe space for clients to be active and have fun doing so. And no matter if you’re doing barre or yoga, the music playlist is guaranteed to be ‘en pointe’!
I love that you’ll always be greeted with a warm smile as you walk through the door and farewelled with a ‘great job today’ after class 🙂 MMS has a sense of community like no other; I highly recommend a visit.”
“Can’t rate this studio enough!! I never considered joining a pilates/barre studio until a friend invited me along, and BOY did it make an impact… From the first class, I was hooked. I love how I can mix and match sessions based on my flow and needs of that week. My self-esteem has grown every session, and I noticed significant change in strength and energy within a couple of weeks. What I love most is the sense of community, the warm welcome, and personal touch each instructor brings to their session—easy to tag along but challenging enough to keep pushing yourself to the next level. The instructors are professional and personable, really paying attention to detail and the individuals. Even on a grim day, you will leave this studio with a glow 🙂 Thanks for the encouragement and support MMS Family.”
“What I love most about the studio is the variety. I could an intense Barre class if I wanted a tough workout, or a chilled yoga class if I was feeling a bit low on energy. The vibe of the place is great overall- amazing interiors, range of equipment to spice things up and super friendly staff who make a real effort to get to know you. Always a huge range of ability levels in the classes, which is always a comfort for me. Prices are reasonable for what you get and similar to most pilates/yoga studios. Highly recommend.”
“I recently joined the online membership and have been attending a few classes in studio when I can. The online videos are so great, and I have really enjoyed the workouts. I love, love, love the range that is available. The atmosphere of the studio is very welcoming, and the instructors are so lovely and encouraging. I have enjoyed every class I have tried in the studio!”
“I just want to shout out this wonderful studio and its trainers. I started their classes when I was 24 weeks pregnant, and I was coached and guided throughout my pregnancy and now postpartum! It was so great having the team’s support through my first pregnancy, and I will be forever grateful to Bec, who is just wonderful, so attentive, and caring—remembering and being aware of our individual needs in classes and always going the extra mile.“
