With an emphasis on core conditioning, breathing and body awareness, our Core, Strength & Mobility classes are a safe and highly effective way to stretch, strengthen and streamline your body without building bulk or stressing your joints.
Core, Strength & Mobility classes utilise various exercises that incorporate balance, power, strength and stability.
This can be done either using the Pilates equipment (reformer, trapeze table, exercise ball etc.) in a CSM Studio class or the form of a Mat Class, utilising bodyweight and minimal equipment. From here, we build and progress your program as appropriate with continued advice and education throughout, so you left feeling a better version of YOU.
Our Core, Strength & Mobility classes are a fitness regime for life, performed on a mat or with specialised equipment. The perfect complement to cardiovascular exercise, sport, rehab and life, these classes will leave you looking toned, feeling revitalised and moving with ease.
Both Physiotherapists and Exercise Physiologists run our classes with Clinical Pilates Experience. Clinical Pilates refers to one-on-one Pilates that are often used for injury rehabilitation and used in conjunction with physiotherapy. Sports & Spinal offers both and can cater to your exact needs.
All patients are required to have an initial assessment with a Physiotherapist or Exercise Physiologist before beginning any of our classes. This is to familiarise patients with any equipment, positions, and exercises and identify any injuries/restrictions that we may need to be aware of prior to a patient attending a class.
Sports & Spinal Robina is NDIS registered and accepts Medicare rebates and HICAPS health fund claims. EFTPOS and credit card facilities are also available for payment.
Core, Strength & Mobility classes are perfect for toning and reshaping the body. It works on creating long, lean muscles, toning all of those hard to target areas such as the abdominals, inner thighs, buttocks, back of thighs, sides and backs of the arms. For toning, these classes are best performed 3 to 5 times a week through a combination of studio sessions, mat classes and home exercises.
Pilates exercises are performed through a wide range of movements and work on lengthening the muscles at the same time as strengthening them. To increase flexibility, stretching exercises need to be performed daily.
The Clinical Pilates exercises used in our Core, Strength & Mobility classes focus on strengthening the weakened postural muscles and stretching the tight muscles that pull the body into these poor postures. Studio sessions are the best way to improve posture as our physiotherapists can develop a program to target your specific postural problems. Pilates can also be used for back pain as it relaxes and strengthens the muscles, easing the discomfort.
Our Core, Strength & Mobility classes use Clinical Pilates techniques which are fantastic for injury rehabilitation and prevention as it works on core stability, posture, flexibility, and correcting muscle imbalances and weaknesses via specific strengthening. It can be used for arthritis, neck pain, back pain and various injuries.
Pilates is the secret tool that many high level and recreational athletes use to enhance their performance, decrease the risk of injuries and provide much-needed cross-training. Each sport has specific strength and flexibility requirements. When you book in for an assessment, your physiotherapist will look at the things you need to work on to improve your performance and then proceed to design a Pilates program for you.

That`s a wrap on another successful Better Outcomes Conference, proudly hosted in collaboration with @travis_schultz_partners!
Welcome in. 💚
Our team had an wonderful time at the @physioaustralia Career Connect event on Saturday! 🥳
It`s Tradies National Health Month, an initiative by @physioaustralia (APA) highlighting the physical and mental demands faced by Australia`s tradies.
One week to go! 🎉
We couldn`t have said it better than @sportsandspinalstrathpine 😂
It takes an incredible team to bring Better Outcomes Conference to life, and we couldn`t do it without our amazing sponsors!
It’s hard to believe we’re almost eight months into the year!
This weekend, we brought together people from across healthcare, allied health and personal injury for a day of learning, connection and collaboration, all with one shared goal: better outcomes for the people we support.
We were especially proud to bring together Katie Lyndon, CEO of Exercise & Sports Science Australia, and Rob LoPresti, CEO of the Australian Physiotherapy Association, for the first time. It was a fantastic opportunity for them to connect with our physiotherapy and exercise physiology teams, as well as the wider Sports & Spinal Group, and share ideas about the future of our professions.
A huge thank you to our incredible experts, panellists and presenters for sharing their knowledge, and to our generous sponsors, VALD, ASICS, EMS DolorClast Oceania, Alpha Sport and Bared Footwear, for helping make the day such a success.
We’re already looking forward to Better Outcomes 2027. Until then, we can’t wait to see the ideas, connections and knowledge from this year continue to make a difference.
#BetterOutcomes2026 #MultidisciplinaryCare #AlliedHealth
From a first appointment to a familiar routine, we love being part of your health journey.
We had the opportunity to connect with the future generation of physiotherapists, discuss private practice and community (@team_rehab_solutions ) pathways, showcase some of our VALD equipment and book in multiple interviews!
If you’re interested in working with Sports & Spinal Group, our team are now accepting EOl’s for 2027 New Grad positions. Link in bio!
We can’t wait for next year’s event!
The latest APA survey paints a concerning picture:
🔨 90% of tradies experienced work-related injuries or pain in the past year
🔨 76% said pain significantly impacts their quality of life
🔨 42% described their pain as severe
🔨 24% worry they`ll need to retire early because of the toll their work takes on their bodies
Whether you`re on the tools every day or managing the demands of a physically demanding job, looking after your body matters.
Our multidisciplinary team, including physiotherapists, exercise physiologists, podiatrists, occupational therapists, psychologists, dietitians, massage therapists and more, can work with you to assess injuries, manage pain, support recovery and help you stay healthy for the long haul.
A big thank you to the Australian Physiotherapy Association for continuing to shine a light on the health and wellbeing of Australia`s tradies through Tradies National Health Month.

To our 2026 New Grad cohort, we couldn’t be prouder of everything you’ve achieved.
Over the past few months, we’ve watched you grow in confidence, embrace every learning opportunity and build meaningful relationships with your patients. Seeing your appointment books fill, hearing the positive feedback from patients and colleagues, and watching you settle into your teams has been incredibly rewarding.
Recently, we also came together for our Mid-Year Refresher Training, taking time to reflect, reconnect and continue building on everything you`ve learned so far. Supporting our New Grads doesn`t stop after orientation, it`s something we`re committed to throughout the year and beyond.
You`re doing an incredible job, and we can`t wait to see what the rest of the year has in store.
