PILATES… BUT STRONGER

What Is Hone?

Hone is a small studio in Valla Beach blending Pilates-based movement with progressive strength training.

Our classes combine the precision, control and flow of Pilates with strength training to build strength, improve mobility and support bone density. Using a variety of weights, each class flows smoothly from movement to movement — strong without being clunky, challenging without being overwhelming.

Hone is a place to move better, build strength, and Hone in on your fitness in a way that feels sustainable and enjoyable.

What Does Hone Offer?

Hone Signature & Gentle Classes

50-minute strength-based Pilates classes

Hone Pilates blends Pilates-style flow with progressive resistance using dumbbells. Classes are designed to build strength and bone density, improve mobility and stability, and help you move better in everyday life.

Whether you’re new to training or ready to lift a little heavier. Expect a focused but enjoyable class that leaves you feeling strong, capable, and energised.

Hone Gentle is a slower-paced, strength-based Pilates class designed for beginners, those returning to movement, or anyone wanting a more supported approach. Using the same strength-focused philosophy as our regular classes, Hone Gentle incorporates simple, effective movement patterns, fewer transitions, and thoughtful modifications to help you build confidence, strength, mobility, and stability at a comfortable pace.

Personal Training

Personal training sessions are fully customised to your goals, needs and training history. Whether you’re working on strength, training for a specific sport or race, want confidence using weights, or simply want a more personalised approach, these sessions give you dedicated time and expert guidance.

About Carragh

Hi, I’m Carragh, founder and instructor at Hone Studio.

I’ve been working in the fitness industry for over 10 years, starting my career at a barre studio in Sydney. That experience shaped my core teaching style — movement that flows, is guided by music, and feels purposeful and fun.

From there, I completed my Certificate III & IV in Fitness, followed by my Mat Pilates and Reformer Pilates teacher training. I’ve worked across a variety of studios, learning from different approaches and refining my own style of teaching along the way. Those years gave me not just experience, but a clear understanding of how I want classes to feel — strong, effective, and enjoyable.

My classes are often described as challenging — and I take that as a compliment. I believe that doing hard things is how we grow, both physically and mentally. That said, I’m always focused on creating a positive, supportive environment where you feel encouraged, capable, and confident in your body.

Starting my own studio is the culmination of everything I’ve learned over the past decade. Hone Studio is my way of bringing together precision, flow, strength and thoughtful programming — and I hope it becomes a place where you feel inspired to keep showing up, week after week.

If you have any questions, feel free to send me a message.
