Refinery Pilates is a infrared heated mat Pilates studio - our classes will focus on teaching body and mind connection through movement, incorporating the fundamentals of Pilates along with elements of other exercise, all well having fun in a community inclusive, judgement free space.
Infrared heats you from the inside. It’s a deep-penetrating heat that warms you, and not just the surrounding air. It’s the ultimate detox. The infrared heated experience is very similar to performing Pilates in the warmth of the summer sun. Hot Pilates utilizing infrared heat feels more comfortable and invigorating as the infrared panels disperse heat evenly and silently – so you are not left feeling drained or dehydrated.
Benefits of infrared heated Pilates include:
Improved immune system function.
A multitude of skin benefits
Helps detoxify your body.
Accelerates your weight loss efforts.
Reduces pain and inflammation
Increases muscle flexibility and accelerates strength building.
Increasing the flow of lymph fluids.
Lowering blood pressure.

HOLDING SPACE FOR ENJOYABLE, JUDGEMENT-FREE MOVEMENT
Meet the founders
Co-founders Holly and Jordan share a vision of creating a space that fosters community and provides a refreshing break from daily routines—a place where individuals can refresh their minds and invigorate their bodies. Holly brings her expertise as an experienced Pilates instructor, driven by a passion for helping people through movement. Jordan complements the team with a wealth of business acumen, a friendly sense of humor, and a commitment to community engagement.
They both found their love for hot mat Pilates whilst living in Melbourne - it became a positive addiction in their life and knew that NZ was missing out, so here they are opening a studio for YOU to see just how epic it feels!
Together we have three energetic and happy kids spending their time outdoors adventuring, swimming in the ocean at Mangawhai and enjoy being surrounded by friends and family.
We look forward to holding space for our community and being a positive and integrated part of your life.
