Why I created Body Love.

Message from Elise Barlow.

“This program was created with love and you in mind— I really care and want everyone to have a positive experience. My goal was to find a way to make an online workout program structured yet personalised and flexible. One of the biggest obstacles I’ve personally noticed since having babies is time. Pre babies, a 45-60 minute workout was my go-to. Post babies, I’m in my 20 minute era. I want the longer workouts in the programs because they are my favourite and so beneficial, but hate the idea of someone feeling defeated because they can’t finish or find time to complete a longer class. So think of Thursday as an invitation to push yourself if you have time, but without pressure. We all know a movement quickie is fire.

Choose your own adventure is multileveled. Each week I’ve invited a theme or a focus and offered three different options for you to choose from. Some of the themes are obvious like body part focus, level of intensity or time. But I’ve also used it as an opportunity for you to try new class styles or look at how a Pilates workout can help improve posture or back pain. Plus, I also love that I can offer cardio or higher intensity options for those who want that, while also offering strength and yoga flows who prefer that and all within the same program.

But another reason I love this approach is because I also want my members to feel empowered to choose their own workouts. The magic of online is you have the ability to customise and choose a workout based on what you want and some of my most successful members have become really good at creating and choosing their own workout schedules. I think it’s empowering to be able to have a balance of both a structured program provided by a Pilates professional but also the skill to be able to lean into what your body wants and to use such a fantastic tool like a workout library to find something that serves you.

The theme of Body Love is important to me. Any pressure on body image or any programs that focus on the results being related to just how your body looks is so not something I stand for. You’ll never ever see me do a testimonial with before and after images because I don’t think the way the body “looks” is a direct translation to how much the bodies gained in terms of strength and I would just love to shift that narrative. Let’s get stronger, build longevity, fall in love with how movement feels and show our body the love it deserves.”

MEMBER LOVE

“Body Love gave me structure and motivation. The program was thoughtfully curated—balancing intensity with rest throughout each week. My body felt challenged but never overworked, and the member chat made me feel part of a community, even while practising online. I also loved discovering new favourite classes in the rich library of workouts.”

Sally | Body Love Postnatal

“Every session brings a fresh and dynamic challenge! No two days feel the same—every workout is new and varied, which kept me engaged the whole way through. Elise’s incredible body awareness and deep knowledge of Pilates really shine through. Her clear, intentional cues guide you straight into the right engagement, and you feel that targeted burn almost instantly. It’s hands down the most efficient, effective, and FUN workout I’ve ever done.

Bianca | Body Love 2025

“I’m so grateful for the platform Elise has created. As a mum of two, Body Love has been exactly what I needed. The flexibility meant I could squeeze in a workout between the chaos of daily life—no stress about making a set class time. The workouts were easy to follow, and my body has honestly reaped the benefits.

Without even focusing on weight loss, I dropped all my baby weight and am now lighter than I was pre-pregnancy. I joined to move daily and build strength, but the physical results have been a welcome bonus. Most of all, I feel more connected to my body, more confident, and energised to take on the day.

I loved the variety of workouts, the mix of short and longer sessions, and how easy it was to access everything on the website. The regular check-ins and Insta updates created such a sense of community—it felt like we were all in it together.

Nikki P | Body Love Postnatal

“Body Love was the boost I needed 3 months after having my first baby. It was the perfect reintroduction to moving my body. Prior to the challenge, I was in pain by the end of the day, but now I’m not :-) I no longer have back pain picking up my baby, and I’ve noticed more muscle tone and overall strength. I just feel more energised and a little bit more like myself again.

Definitely more energy and strength overall, which has been really noticeable while carrying, feeding, and playing with my bubba. As a sleep-deprived, time-poor new mamma, I loved having the workouts picked for me. It made it so easy to show up.

I feel stronger in mind, body and soul and feel like I’m ready to take it to the next level”.

Programs

Pre/Postpartum

Classic

"I followed the program throughout my pregnancy and rejoined at 10 months postpartum and have noticed such a huge difference in my abdominal separation with Elise's amazing cueing. This was my 4th baby (first c-section though) and I've been trying to fix my diastasis for at least 7 years. Thank you! I'm nearly a year postpartum now and after trying so many other apps and courses, I'm finally able to find some abdominal connection".

Amber F.

"Every session brings a fresh and dynamic challenge. Elise's exceptional body awareness and deep knowledge of Pilates truly shine through. Her clear, intentional cues guide you precisely into the right engagement, creating that targeted burn almost instantly. It's by far the most effective and efficient Pilates class I've ever experienced".

Bianca M.

“After struggling with back pain from gym workouts, I realised my body thrives on Pilates. MVMT has become my go-to for self-care—challenging yet soothing, with flows that feel like magic. It’s the first exercise I truly love and can stick with. Thank you, Elise—MVMT is so special.”

Bella D.

“Elise's ability to break down each movement and guide me to connect with the right muscle group is incredible. Yours is the first online Pilates platform I’ve fully committed to and actually seen results with. Elise is truly the best.”

Naomi T.

"MVMT changed my mindset on movement. I’ve gone from punishing my body with exhausting workouts to feeling stronger, longer, and leaner. Elise’s classes are addictive – a perfect mix of strength and mobility that fits into my life effortlessly."

Sarah S.

“Movement Society is absolutely incredible, and I love it so much! On the rare days I couldn’t move, my body would crave it. Having done Pilates for years, nothing has compared to Movement Society—it feels so unique. The classes are fun, fiery, and smart, raising the bar for what I expect in a program. I’ve become so much more aware of my body through these sessions. You’ve completely changed the way I approach mat Pilates."
