Our Philosophy

Learn the method. Understand your body. Evolve your practice.

At Evolution Pilates Studio, we believe movement has the power to transform lives.

Pilates is more than exercise—it's a practice that builds strength, confidence, resilience, and a deeper understanding of your body.

We believe every person is unique. Your movement history, lifestyle, and experiences shape the way you move, which is why we never take a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, we meet you where you are and support you as your body and confidence evolve.

Our focus is on quality movement, not simply completing exercises. By learning how your body moves and why it moves that way, you'll build lasting strength, improve mobility, and develop skills that support everyday life.

Real progress comes through consistency, thoughtful progression, and expert guidance. Whether you're new to Pilates or have years of experience, we're here to help you move well—for life.

"Change happens through movement, and movement heals"

Our Approach

Personalised guidance.
Proven method.

Lifelong results.

Every Pilates journey at Evolution Pilates Studio begins with understanding you.

Your initial private session allows us to assess your movement, discuss your goals, and create a personalised program that reflects your individual needs and abilities.

Our teaching is grounded in the traditional Pilates Method and informed by my training as a fourth-generation Pilates teacher within the Jay Grimes lineage. We honour the original principles of the method while recognising that Pilates should always be adapted to the individual—not the individual to the method.

As your strength, mobility, and confidence grow, your program evolves with you. Whether you continue through private sessions, our signature Open Studio, or small group classes, you'll receive ongoing guidance, feedback, and support every step of the way.

Our role isn't simply to teach exercises. We empower you with the knowledge and confidence to understand your body, move with purpose, and continue progressing long after you leave the studio.

Our Difference

At Evolution Pilates Studio, we don't simply teach classes—we teach people.

Our goal is to help you develop a deeper understanding of your body and the Pilates Method so that movement becomes something you can confidently carry into everyday life.

Through personalised instruction, small group sizes, and thoughtful progression, we create an environment where every client is seen, supported, challenged, and encouraged to grow.

Like the tree that represents our studio, lasting strength begins with strong foundations.

As your confidence grows, your movement evolves.

And that evolution continues for life.

The system gives you the map.

The apparatuses help you explore the terrain.

The real work happens when the system meets curiousity.

Founder Lauren Hulbert

Meet Lauren

Movement has always been a part of my life.

Growing up on a farm in the Snowy Mountains as part of a large family taught me the value of hard work, resilience, and caring for both body and mind. Those early experiences shaped my approach to life and continue to influence the way I teach Pilates today.

My journey began through dance. After completing my Diploma in Dance through the British Ballet Organisation, I spent 16 years teaching and exploring the way the body moves. Dance taught me discipline, precision, creativity, and a deep appreciation for the strength and capability of the human body.

Through dance, I discovered Pilates and the powerful connection between movement, awareness, and control. I was drawn to the way Pilates could help people not only build strength, but move with greater confidence, understanding, and ease.

In 2019, I completed my Diploma in Pilates Instruction with Polestar Pilates Australia, allowing me to combine my passion for movement with my desire to help others improve their strength, mobility, and relationship with their body.

I believe Pilates is a lifelong practice, and as a teacher, I am always learning. My continued studies within the Jay Grimes lineage have deepened my understanding of the traditional Pilates Method and the importance of teaching with intention, precision, and purpose.

Jay Grimes, a first-generation Pilates teacher who studied directly with Joseph and Clara Pilates, dedicated his life to preserving the original principles of Contrology. This approach has reinforced my belief that Pilates is more than simply performing exercises—it is about developing awareness, understanding your body, and creating lasting change through mindful movement.

This philosophy is at the heart of Evolution Pilates Studio.

My approach is centred around personalised instruction, thoughtful progression, and helping each client develop confidence and independence in their movement. Every person arrives with a different history, and a different body, and my role is to meet you where you are and guide you forward.

Whether you are beginning Pilates for the first time, returning after injury, navigating pregnancy or postnatal recovery, improving your physical performance, or looking to deepen your existing practice, I want you to feel welcomed, supported, and empowered.

I truly believe Pilates is for every body. My greatest joy is seeing clients become stronger, move with greater freedom, and leave each session feeling better than when they arrived.

Welcome to Evolution Pilates Studio—I look forward to being part of your movement journey.

Studio Pilates

Initial Private Session

Your Pilates journey begins here.

Every client begins with an initial assessment so we can understand your body, and how Pilates can best support you.

Following your assessment, we will recommend the pathway that best suits your needs. Some clients may be ready to transition into our Open Studio practice, while others may benefit from continuing with private sessions to develop their technique, understanding, and confidence.

There is no set timeline—your progression is based on your individual needs and readiness. Our goal is to provide you with the knowledge and skills to move safely and confidently through your Pilates practice.

The OOV and Balansit are innovative movement tools designed to improve posture, balance, core stability, mobility, and body awareness while supporting the body's natural movement patterns.

Whether you're recovering from injury, managing persistent pain, improving athletic performance, or simply looking to move with greater ease and efficiency, OOV and Balansit training provides a highly individualised approach to developing strength, control, and confidence.

Integrated into your personalised Pilates program, these specialised tools are used when appropriate to support your individual goals and enhance your movement experience.
