Upstate Studios Balaclava

Love this studio! I've been taking reformer classes and the trainers are all amazing and supportive, plus the facilities are great and so many classes are on offer. Would recommend cardio reformer in particular for a great workout - anyone can give it a go regardless of your level of reformer experience.

I don't really recommend the place anymore as the quality has gone down quite a LOT!
The hot yoga room, the heater system is not working at all, constantly telling instructors to fix it but no one seems to care. We paid for hot yoga class not for standard yoga.
Also the music system is always playing up since months same thing no one seems to care about students.
Adding to this the Yoga/Pilates instructors never correct your poses or nothing at all and constantly doing the same poses.

I have spoken to instructors about it but no one seems to care “Only care about the fees”

Love their hot Pilates classes! Instructors are all knowledgeable and energising; even when working out may be the last thing you want to do ;) Friendly boutique studio in the heart of Balclava.

I just completed my 15th class at Upstate Balaclava. Amazing atmosphere of this studio love this place. I was really nervous my first time coming, as I was new to reformers I was worried about being uncoordinated, the instructor (Chloe) she explained things well and corrected when necessary. My uncertain work schedule gave me chance to attend class of different instructors, which I feel have particular style which makes all the class different and dynamic. Definitely have a lot to learn. This studio is fantastic with great instructor who are super attentive and excellent in correcting posture and teaching you right technique.
Looking forward to feeling stronger.

Feeling stronger and healthier with every class I attend, and I love that it only takes 30-45 minutes of my time. Would highly recommend Upstate Balaclava!

I love going to upstate! I’ve never been into yoga, and found other studios quite daunting but found upstate super welcoming! My favourite class is the yin yoga + sound bath meditation. The perfect way to end a stressful week.

Absolutely love this studio! Facilities are great, the trainers are amazing and I always leave feeling wonderful! Perfect for a relaxing meditation or a hard HIIT workout, everything you could need in one place!

Have been going to Upstate balaclava for about 2 months and I’m absolutely LOVING it! The studio is bright and inviting, and the classes are so fun yet challenging. The instructors are amazing, I love both Stefan’s and Kim’s classes the most. Would definitely recommend to everyone ‍️

I love coming to upstate because I always feel great after and so strong and challenged during the class which I love!
Definitely recommend for anyone:)

I just love it! My daughters train with me, the staff are so friendly, and everyone is so happy, no matter what time of the day it is!

Very clean and cool facility, encouraging and caring instructors, who provided me with a helpful tip after sessions. Very positive vibe inside the studio.

Have absolutely loved every class. I had never done Pilates before and felt so comfortable and supported through every session.

Upstate is the most incredible pilates experience I've had to date. The studio is so inviting, the class sizes perfect and the programmes diverse and challenging. I'd highly recommend to anyone. I can't wait to hear what the team bring back from their trip to NYC.

I purchased the intro offer last week and have already been 6 times. I can see improvements in my muscle tone already. Leave every class feeling like I’ve just worked out harder than ever before, dripping with sweat - which as an added bonus has worked wonders for my skin! All the instructors have been really great too.

I really love the mat classes here in the hot room, always a great burn! The instructors are friendly and accommodating.
The room is a bit small however and it can be hard to see or hear the instructor at times. If you already have a strong practice it will no big issues, but if you are a newbie you might need to make sure you are close to the instructor during the class.

This studio is amazing! The staff are very friendly and the classes always provide a great workout. The studio is a beautiful space, filled with new equipment. I could not recommend Upstate more!

Best pilates studio I have found in Melbourne, the instructors are really friendly and the classes are challenging which is great!

Always such good vibes every time i walk in! And the classes are varied, intense, relaxed but always energising!:)

Super friendly and helpful staff and a really clean and beautiful studio. Heat takes a while to get used to but you do eventually

I love this studio! I started off with the month intro pass and decided to join straight away as I love the space, teachers and the general vibe of upstate. I have done Pilates/ hot yoga at other studios, and I can confidentially say that Upstate is the best one I’ve ever been to:)
