If you’re exhausted by the messages the fitness industry keeps throwing at you, like “transform your body,” “shed the Christmas weight,” “fix your problem areas”, you’re not alone.

And honestly? I’m tired of it too.

For years, women have been told that the only way to measure progress is by shrinking themselves.

But there’s a growing number of us who know there’s a better way.

A way that honours the body you have today.

A way that respects seasons, energy, capacity, and real life.

A way that lets movement feel good, not punishing.

And that’s exactly where our IRIE community stands apart.

Our Kilkenny studio has been thoughtfully created for mums and mums-to-be, with baby-friendly facilities, spotless space, and a calm, welcoming atmosphere.

We offer Antenatal Pilates to support you through pregnancy, and after birth you can continue with Postnatal Pilates, Circuits, or our Core & Pelvic Floor Restore programme - all designed around the real needs of women’s bodies.

What sets us apart is the care we put into every detail: small group sizes, flexible catch-up options, a safe space for babies, and an approach that’s body-neutral, supportive, and empowering. Here, movement is about feeling strong, connected, and confident - never rushed or judged.

At our Circuit Training, Boxercise, Pilates and PilatesxStrength Fusion classes for women, we embrace an intelligent training approach with mindful movements. These classes cater to women of all ages who are interested in gaining a deeper understanding of their bodies, rather than just following rigid rules imposed by others.
