About Villa Pilates

Villa Pilates is a boutique Pilates studio concept based in Melbourne, created to offer a more intentional, elevated approach to movement.

Designed as a space to slow down, reconnect, and build strength with care.

Our Beginning

Villa was created from a desire for something different.

After experiencing burnout during Melbourne’s lockdowns, movement became more than exercise — it became a way to reconnect, to feel present, and to rebuild a sense of routine and community.

What began as a personal reset has since grown into a space where others can experience the same.

At Villa, we focus on intentional movement — where each exercise is guided with precision, awareness, and care.

Our classes are designed to feel personal, even in a group setting.

We prioritise:
– Form over speed
– Quality over intensity
– Connection over routine

Smaller class sizes allow our instructors to guide, adjust, and support each client throughout their session.

Founder

Vivienne Choi

“Villa was founded with a vision to create a more intentional, elevated approach to Pilates — one that prioritises form, presence, and experience.

With a background in healthcare and a deep understanding of movement, Vivienne brings a considered, detail-oriented approach to both teaching and studio design.”
