Helping women over 50 in Melbourne move with less pain, more freedom, and renewed confidence

I’m Lou Conyers, the sole practitioner at Move Move Pilates. For over 15 years, I’ve been helping women over 50 in Melbourne reduce pain, improve mobility, and rediscover the joy of movement.

My journey into Pilates wasn’t just professional — it was personal. I’ve seen first‑hand how chronic pain and stiffness can chip away at your confidence and independence. That’s why I’ve dedicated my career to creating programs that are safe, effective, and deeply personalised.

My Approach

I specialise in Neuro Pilates — a brain‑based movement method that helps retrain your body to move with greater ease. Every session is tailored to you: your history, your goals, and even how you’re feeling that day.

I don’t believe in one‑size‑fits‑all classes. Instead, I work closely with you to:

  • Reduce stiffness and pain
  • Improve balance and flexibility
  • Build strength safely
  • Restore confidence in your body

Outside the Studio

You’ll find me enjoying my coffee (long black please!), walking around Albert Park Lake and the Botanic Gardens, at the gym, and doing my own Pilates practice. I’m also a bit of a nerd — my idea of fun is learning more Neuro-related stuff and computer gaming!
