General

The Hive is a high performance studio built for women who want more — in their body, their training and their life. Whether you're a busy professional, a mother, or anywhere in between, our community welcomes women at every stage who are serious about their health and growth.

100% yes. All of our classes are coached and modified for every level. Whatever your current fitness level is, that's exactly the right place to start. We're genuinely good at meeting you where you are and building from there.

Yes — our instructors are trained in pre and postnatal fitness and can tailor your classes to suit your specific stage. It's important to stay strong throughout pregnancy while always listening to your body, and our team will guide you on what's appropriate at each stage.

Yes, The Hive is exclusively for women. It's part of what makes the studio feel different — a space designed entirely around what women actually need to train, recover and grow.

Membership & Billing

Yes — all memberships have a minimum term of 3, 6 or 12 months depending on the membership you choose. If you wish to cancel within your term, you can pay out the remaining balance or transfer it to a non-member for a $49 transfer fee. After your minimum term, your membership moves to month-to-month with a 30-day cancellation notice, equivalent to 2 fortnightly payments.

All memberships are billed fortnightly. Your first fortnightly payment plus the one-off $111 joining fee are processed when you join, then payments continue automatically on a fortnightly cycle for the duration of your term.

A one-off $111 joining fee applies to all class memberships. This includes a welcome pack valued over $200 and access to our 12-week Body Blitz online program to get you started. Recovery only memberships have no joining fee.

Yes — memberships can be paused for injury, pregnancy or extended holidays. If you have any concerns about flexibility before purchasing a membership, just talk to our team and we'll work through the right option with you.

Absolutely — nothing makes us happier than you spreading the love this way. Email us via the Contact Us page telling us what you'd like to gift, and we'll send through everything you need.

We have low-use options for women who only want to train once or twice a week, and we can tailor memberships for unusual circumstances. No two situations are the same — just get in touch and we'll work something out.

An InBody scan is a detailed body composition analysis that measures your muscle mass, body fat percentage, hydration levels and metabolic rate. It takes around 60 seconds and gives you a clear, data-driven starting point so your training is intentional from day one. It's included as part of The Hive Experience (valued at $40) and completed on your first visit.

Start with The Hive Experience — an InBody scan, 3 classes and a full recovery session for $99. No joining fee, no lock in, no obligation. Must be used within 10 days of purchase. Book The Hive Experience here →

Classes & Timetable

Yes, all classes require booking — it takes just a moment via The Hive app or our website. Popular early morning classes fill quickly, so we recommend booking ahead.

Whatever workout gear feels comfortable. For Reformer Pilates, close-fitting, breathable fabrics with stretch work best. Grip socks are required — available to purchase at the studio. Bring a towel and a reformer mat if you have one; mats are also available to purchase at the studio if you'd like your own. For HiveX, we recommend a supportive sports bra and good athletic footwear.

If you're more than 5 minutes late and someone is waiting in the studio for a reformer, at 6 minutes past start time they may be allowed to take your spot. If you've notified the studio you're running late, we'll do our best to hold your reformer for you.

HiveX uses a Rolling Start — there's no closed door policy. Arrive any time within your booked session window, get a personal warm-up from your instructor, and join the circuit wherever it's at. Stay for one round or three — entirely your call. Read more on our HiveX page.

Yes — many of our instructors are available for private 1:1 or small group sessions. If you'd like to focus on form, customise your experience or accelerate your results, contact us to arrange a private session.

You can join the waitlist directly through The Hive app — if a spot opens up, you'll be notified automatically. We also recommend checking nearby class times, as we run a high frequency of classes throughout the day.

Instructor-led classes are fully coached in real time. Self-led sessions let you train independently using our app video library (Reformer) or in-studio station boards (HiveX) — available to members who've completed 10+ instructor-led classes.

Kids Club

Kids Club welcomes children from 6 weeks to 12 years of age, with age-separated zones so babies, toddlers and older children each have a space designed specifically for them.

Yes — book your class in the Classes section of the app, then book Kids Club separately in the Appointments section for the same time slot. Booking is essential so we can deliver the right level of care.

Always — with 1 to 3 trained carers depending on numbers, and at least one carer on site holding a current Blue Card at all times. Full details are on our Kids Club page.

Yes — the space has an open door with a gate so you'll hear if your baby cries, and you're always welcome to pop in. We genuinely encourage mums to come and play any time.

Recovery & Massage

Recovery sessions are booked in 45-minute windows — but if you've just finished a class and want to pop in for 15 minutes to use the sauna or sit in the ice bath, that's completely fine too.

No — Recovery can be added to any Silver or Gold membership for +$15/week, comes included with Platinum, or accessed on its own with a Recovery Only membership at $30/week with no joining fee.

The infrared sauna comfortably fits up to 5 people, though after class it's typically just 2-3, and during class times you'll often have the whole space to yourself.

Thrive Program

No — Thrive is fully online and open to women anywhere in Australia. Hive members do save $34/week on the program price as a membership benefit.

Thrive runs three times per year. Join the waitlist to be notified first when the next cohort opens.

Six weeks, billed weekly. After that you can cancel anytime, or transition into Thrive Ongoing to keep the momentum going at a reduced weekly rate.

Thrive is led by Marina Perry, Co-Founder of The Hive For Her, alongside guest expert facilitators covering nutrition, hormones, breathwork and holistic health. More on our Thrive page.

Studio & Practical Info

We have on-site parking available, plus street parking nearby. There's also a bike stand right out front if you're riding in.

Yes — The Hive is 422 square metres entirely on one ground level, with no stairs or barriers, and includes an accessible bathroom with toilet and shower.

Six toilets, three showers, a members lounge, a fully stocked vanity station (free for members), baby change facilities and an accessibility bathroom. Full details on our Memberships page.

We don't have lockers — simply bring your bag into class with you. In HiveX you can pop it on the bench, and in Reformer you can keep it right beside you.

Reception is open 8:00am – 5:00pm daily. Call us on 0483 950 730 or email support@thehiveforher.com.

Events & Studio Hire

From The Hive Collective and the Metabolism Masterclass to community Run Club and Walk Club mornings, our founders Michelle and Marina have both run retreats globally and spoken publicly for over a decade each. See what's on at Workshops & Events.

Most of our community events are open to non-members too — though some, like The Hive Collective, are member exclusives. Check each event's details for specifics.

Yes — our space is available for corporate events, team building, workshops, kids parties and photoshoots. Room hire starts from $80/hour with custom packages available. Enquire about studio hire →
