Movement that grounds. Community that elevates.
Movement that grounds. Community that elevates.
KIN is a Pilates-led wellness brand based in Sydney, created to help people feel strong, centred and connected without the pressure, perfectionism, or overwhelm that often surrounds the fitness world.
We blend intelligent movement, nervous-system awareness, and a deep commitment to community to create experiences that feel both grounding and empowering. From sunrise pop-ups to 1:1s, and corporate sessions, KIN is building a new kind of third space: a place to move, breathe, connect and return to yourself.
THE STORY BEHIND KIN
Founded by Grace Loke O’Connor, KIN grew from a simple idea: that movement feels better and life feels lighter when it’s done together.
Grace began her Pilates journey in London, training in classical Pilates, before refining her education in Sydney through Barre Body, where she completed certifications in Mat, Reformer, Barre and Pre/Post Natal.
Her teaching style blends:
- the precision and discipline of classical Pilates
- the creativity and freedom of contemporary movement
- the grounding breathwork that supports the nervous system
- the warmth and energy she’s known for in every room she teaches in
Grace has taught across the Northern Beaches and Eastern Suburbs, bringing her signature blend of clarity, strength work, long lines and mindful intensity to hundreds of clients every week.
KIN began the way many beautiful things do organically. A sunrise beach class. A community that kept growing. People asking for more. More movement. More connection. More mornings that felt like something special.
Today, KIN is evolving into an ecosystem of:
- Events & Pop-Ups
- Weekly Community Classes
- Corporate Wellness Sessions
- Future product releases like the KIN Mat and accessories
Everything we do is designed around one central belief:
When you move with intention and community, you move through life differently.
