— About us

The studio that cares.

We specialise in going the extra mile to help you feel better. We love working with beginners and people that feel like they don’t ‘fit’ in a traditional exercise or studio environment.

If you are looking for a place where you can feel safe and supported, AND get the results you want of feeling better & healthier – without the crop tops and hot pants- then we are the place for you.

About Adapted Yoga & Pilates - A studio that cares.

Amazing team, helping you become your best.

Our story.

Adapted was founded by award winning teacher Rebecca Harford and her husband Jeremy in April 2013. Frustrated with the lack of truly supported access for EVERY BODY to movement and exercise, they began running small Adapted classes in their garage.

Their goal: To ensure that everyone, no matter their size, experience or physical ability can gain freedom in their bodies. Yoga & Pilates were the tools of choice because after years of teaching internationally Rebecca had found that these methodologies were so easily adaptable for all bodies.

— Why us?

Reasons to join Adapted.

Classes are Adapted to YOU

We literally plan each class for the students booked, then adapt to each person throughout the class – adapted levels and poses for each person, ensuring they are safe no matter what.

Wrap around service, far off the mat

Let's make it simple – we care about you. We will call if you are not at classes, we will be celebrating your successes and helping you out when things go wrong.

Flexible to what you need

Multiple class venues and more classes than anywhere else. You have the ability to come to class when it suits you, and even put your classes on hold or cancel if need be.

Personal assessment and ongoing tracking

We offer free personal assessments and are tracking your progress for you throughout your journey with us. You have easy access to this and your own home library of exercises in your personal, easy to use App and booking system.

We are all everyday people

All ages, sizes, health conditions, injury status and ability levels. We specialise with the absolute beginners – men and women. Whether you are completely new to yoga, need something to manage stress, or are recovering from an injury. Whether you are 18 or 75!

Helping you become your best

Our mission is to help everyday people become their best. Adapted is more than just yoga classes; we are a community of people that will help you, on and off the mat. We want to help you become the best you can be.
