To Our Dear Community,

After careful consideration of the ongoing challenges with finding a fitting permanent space for our community, we have made the tough decision to close our Kirrawee studios.

We will be operating with reduced schedules across Yoga and Pilates over the next 14 days, with the final day of classes running on Wednesday 30th August.

We will be holding a farewell celebration following our Saturday morning classes on the 26th of August from 10:30am.

Since our relocation from South Village six months ago, our top priority has been to continue serving our community and supporting our dedicated teachers while we searched for a forever home. Unfortunately, the lack of suitable commercial spaces in the area, combined with the limitations for growth within our current studios, has led us to this tough decision.

Providing you with the best experience possible over the next two weeks will remain our top priority, and we hope to connect with each of you to celebrate the times shared and connections formed during these past three years.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude for your ongoing support and loyalty, whether you have been with us from the beginning, or recently joined our studios. Your presence and energy have been an essential part of our journey, and we are deeply appreciative of your contribution to our community.

Understandably this news may come as a surprise and disappointment, and we want to assure you we are here to provide you with the information and support you need during this time. You can reach us at kirrawee@bodymindlife.com.

With love and gratitude,
Phil, Ferique and Team Kirrawee

To Our Dear Community,

We are excited to announce the official opening of our new, Kirrawee temporary studios on Monday, 27th March

The new space is located at Unit 6 – 7, 48 Waratah Street, Kirrawee, just two streets away from South Village, and includes dedicated studios for Yoga (Unit 7) and Pilates (Unit 6).

We will be reopening with our full schedule, timetables will go live on our website and app shortly, so stay tuned!

We’d like to take the opportunity to thank you for your patience during our temporary closure. Our teachers and operations team cannot wait to welcome you back to practise together from next week. 

Just a reminder that this is a temporary space. We are in the process of purchasing a large warehouse in the Kirrawee industrial area that could see us moved into another state-of-the-art home later this year!

Your memberships will not be reactivated without your permission. Please reach out to kirrawee@bodymindlife.com to reactivate your pass or membership. 

With love,
Phil, Ferique and BodyMindLife Team

Dear Students,

We sincerely apologise for the overdue update, there were some unexpected delays getting access to our new, short term home. Nevertheless, we officially have keys in hand and have started moving in today!

Our amazing studio Manager, Sam and handyman, Brett, are on location sealing the floors as we speak. Although we are eager to get back to practise with you there is a little bit to do to get the premise up and running. Our team is working diligently to get the studio operating and we expect to have an update on our confirmed reopening date in the next couple of days.

Stay tuned! And once again, thank you for your patience.

With gratitude,

Phil, Ferique and Team BodyMindLife

To Our Dear Community,
 
We are excited to announce that we have secured a new, temporary home for our Kirrawee studio! The new space is located at 48 Waratah Street, Kirrawee, just two streets away from South Village.
 
While it is devastating that we had to close our beautiful space in South Village, we recognise that it is not the building that makes the community. We are overwhelmed with gratitude for the supportive and resilient community of students and teachers that make up BodyMindLife Kirrawee. It is because of you that we have been able and inspired to turn these circumstances around so quickly.
 
Our incredible teachers and operational crew will do everything possible to ensure a seamless transition to our new space. More details will become available in the coming days as we prepare to welcome you back to practice, hopefully in as soon as a week!
 
With love, Phil, Ferique and BodyMindLife Team

To Our Dear Community,
Thank you so much for your unwavering support and understanding with regards to the unexpected news about the closure of our Kirrawee studio. We cannot understate our appreciation for you.
 
Unfortunately negotiations with the landlord Mirvac did not produce our desired result. We were told we have until tomorrow to de-fit and vacate the premises, and are waiting for access to complete the clear out.
 
Although the studio closure is unfavourable, we have already found a potential “pop-up” space in the industrial area close to South Village that could see us reopened in just over a week. The temporary space would allow us to continue to serve the community while we search for a new permanent home in Kirrawee.
 
As soon as we have signed a lease we will update you with our new address and reopening date.
 
We apologise if we have not been able to attend to your emails, please know we are working our way though your inquiries and will get back to you as soon as possible. Our team, including Sam, Phil, Ferique and our wonderful teachers have been all hands on deck to help pack up the studio and plan next steps.
 
All passes and memberships have been suspended until further notice, any questions please contact support@bodymindlife.com. To arrange collection of your yoga mat please contact us at kirrawee@bodymindlife.com.
 
With gratitude,
Phil, Ferique & Team BodyMindLife

To Our Dear Community,
 
We are so grateful to you for being part of our amazing community here in Kirrawee. This space has been one of transformation, inspiration, and restoration for all of us over the past 4 years.
 
Yesterday we received an end of lease notice from our landlord Mirvac. They issued us with a sudden notice to vacate the premises without warning despite BML continuing to pay commercial rent in a timely manner. This announcement followed after yesterday’s urgent closure by building management due to a “maintenance issue” that saw us unable to run classes as scheduled.
 
Despite a mutual agreement to repay deferred rent from the COVID pandemic studio closures, Mirvac has decided they will no longer accept this arrangement, and are applying pressure by taking extreme measures and without providing adequate notice to us. As a result, we have been left with no choice but to temporarily close the Kirrawee studio until further notice. This is to enable us to make the most informed decisions and continue negotiations with the landlords. This is a fluid situation and we are currently negotiating the future of our lease. We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience and impact this is having on you.
 
We are awaiting communication from our landlord and expect to have an update for you by next Thursday, 23rd February detailing our plans to reopen.
 
Although it would be our preference to simply reopen our studio doors as soon as possible, the circumstances surrounding this sudden closure are outside of our control.
In the event that we have to relocate we have a solid management team with experience navigating these rapidly changing situations, thanks to the pandemic, and most recently, the relocation of our Surry Hills studio.
 
We are confident we will be up and running again asap, and will keep you informed with every new update as it becomes available to us. In the meantime, we welcome any leads from you, our community, if you know of a real estate agent or space that could serve as our new Kirrawee studio home, please contact Phil on 0410 693 199.
 
Of course, community is more than a physical space. It is the connection and bonds that run between us, and that has built over the years we have gathered together to share our practise. We would like to invite you to practise with us over at bodymindlife.online where we will be hosting favourite Kirrawee teachers, as well as access to our on-demand yoga, Pilates and wellness library to keep you connected and moving until we can reunite in person.
 
We know that this announcement will come as a shock and we want to assure you that this will be a short-term closure. We are committed to keeping the Kirrawee studio running, and are accommodating our teaching teams at other studios and online in the interim so they will be there for you to stay connected until we reopen the doors. Memberships and passes have been suspended until further notice, please contact support@bodymindlife.com with any questions. We thank you for your support and understanding as we move through this transition.
 
With gratitude,
Phil, Ferique & Team BodyMindLife

To Our Dear Community,

Further to the announcement that our Surry Hills studio is relocating, we are thrilled to share that we have secured a new temporary “home” located on Elizabeth Street, only a few minutes walk from our current studio.

 

Our incredible teachers and operational crew will do everything possible to ensure a seamless transition to our new space, which will include class schedules for yoga, Pilates, and Teacher Training. More details will become available in the coming days as we prepare to welcome you with open arms to our new studios, hopefully as soon as 3-4 weeks from now.

 

While it is with deep sadness that we close our beautiful space on Mary Street, with final classes running Tuesday 4th October, we are equally excited for what the next chapter holds for our wonderful community.

 

Thank you for your patience and continued support as we transition to our new temporary studios. Updates will be shared via our website as they become available, so stay tuned!

 

With love,

Ferique & Phil

To Our Dear Community,


We are so grateful to you for being part of our community here in Surry Hills. Over the years, this space has been a container of transformation, inspiration, connection and restoration for all of us… and so it is with a deep sadness that we announce that this beautiful space will be closing on Wednesday, 5 October 2022.


The circumstances surrounding this announcement are outside of our control, as is the time frame available to us to navigate this change. Both our team of wonderful teachers and operations crew are up for the challenge and, thanks to COVID, are now seasoned “pivoters”.


Of course, community is more than a physical space. It is the connection and bonds that run between us which have been built over the years we have gathered together to share our practice. We are currently working on a plan to create a beautiful new “home” for us in Surry Hills and our vision is that this will be a state-of-the-art facility in the coming months, similar to our Byron and Kirrawee studios.


In the meantime, we’re working to relocate on a temporary basis to a new space in the Surry Hills area as we manifest and build our “forever” home. These plans are in progress – so stay tuned for announcements in the very near future.


We know that this announcement will come as a shock and so we want to assure you that this will be a short-term closure, and we are accommodating our teaching teams at other studios and online in the interim so they will be there for you to stay connected until we reopen the doors. 


We thank you for your support and understanding as move through this transition.


With gratitude, 

Ferique and Phil

Branded App 

The branded app available via the App Store and Google Play. It is seperate to the website – your website login won’t automatically work for the app. You may need to “Create Account” for the app using the same email that use for the website. If you already have a MINDBODY Account (A MINDBODY Account is a secure login that allows clients to use a single username and password across the MINDBODY family of products) you should be able to login and link your MINDBODY account to BodyMindLife. Clients can view which businesses their profile is linked to by visiting https://account.mindbodyonline.com/

Waitlist

MINDBODY waitlist function allows you to reserve a spot in a full class. When a spot in the class becomes available, the first person on the waitlist will be automatically moved into the class. Spaces that are cancelled inside of the 2 hour window will be charged the usual late fee and the space will be made available to all members. You will only be automatically enrolled on a waitlist outside of the 2 hour cancellation window.

You will receive both an email and an SMS when you are booked into a class via the waitlist. In the text message, you will be asked to respond ‘Y’ to confirm or ‘N’ to cancel. If you respond ‘N’, you will be removed from the class and the next client on the waitlist will automatically be added and receive the waitlist confirmation SMS. If you don’t respond Y or N to the SMS you are still booked into the class. However, if you don’t show-up for class, and haven’t responded to the text, we may give your space to any walk-ins and you will be charged the no-show fee as per-usual.

Please be mindful of this when booking the waitlist for early morning classes as it is possible you will be automatically enrolled into a class in the early hours of the morning! Please treat the waitlist like you are booking a class. If you have added yourself to the waitlist and longer want to attend the class, please cancel the waitlisted classes via your Account (Account Schedule). The waitlist is only currently available on the website. We are speaking with MINDBODY to enable on the app.

 
How can I see my bookings including my waitlisted classes?
  • Login and click the Account page.
  • Select “Schedule” for upcoming classes
  • Tap “Cancel beside the class you’d like to cancel including waitlisted classes.
