WELCOME TO ONE PENNY LANE
After 10 years of fitness classes and training in various locations between Leura and Lithgow, Fit and Fabulous found a more permanent home here in the heart of Katoomba in 2019.
Regardless of where you are now and where you are aiming in your wellness journey, this is a place that will support and help you reach your health and fitness goals.
Our light-filled space has a colourful heritage and is a welcoming and charming space. We have two studios onsite. One is used for our Pilates mat, barre and yoga. The other studio is used for Pilates reformer and Pilates private sessions. For our Zumba classes we use a larger hall which is less than two minutes walk from the studio.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
The key philosophy of Fit and Fabulous is that body awareness and alignment is the foundation to a strong core, to good movement and posture and to staying injury-free whilst building your strength, flexibility and fitness.
This mindful approach underpins not just our Pilates classes and private sessions - but all our programs, whether we’re doing functional exercise, working at the barre, dancing or even stretching.
Learning to know and trust your body is empowering! It helps you to enjoy and appreciate everyday movement, to make more intuitive choices in other aspects of your life and to transition though midlife and its challenges more easily.
TESTIMONIALS
Thanks to our wonderful students for your testimonials and continued support!
Angela really knows how to deliver quality. I have benefited greatly from her Zumba, Pilates and Strength classes. She has a sound knowledge of body alignment and balance which translates to a safe and beneficial exercise program. On top of this, it's a lot of fun!!

Angela's Pilates classes are excellent. They have helped me gain an understanding of the importance of particular exercises all in a fun environment with like-minded people. Any aches & pains I had are long gone because of what I have learned through these classes.

Angela has been training me since 2015…. In that time my physical strength has increased markedly. The weight I can pull or raise has increased. I started off with no experience of weight training and quite fearful of it but now I really enjoy it. .. Angela knows the weak points in my body and designs exercises to strengthen them while being aware of what might be too much and holding back when needed. I can’t recommend Angela as a personal trainer highly enough, these sessions are worth every cent I have paid for them and I will continue as long as Angela is providing her service.

I feel stronger and fitter doing Pilates with the girls at Fit and Fabulous. The best thing I have ever done for myself!

Fit and Fabulous is a beautifully equipped boutique studio. The skilled and supportive instructors emphasize technique, ensuring that we all exercise safely and effectively. There is an extensive range of classes, but small class sizes mean that each client is known personally. I particularly enjoy the mood lighting for evening Pilates and yoga.

This is a great studio that has really worked hard during these strange times. Don’t be fooled either, the instructors are super-fit so you will be able to find challenge or pull back according to your need. Thank you for your great work!

Not being one for gyms anymore but still needing to move my body, I came across Fit and Fabulous and was totally surprised at how fun, non-judgemental, supportive and encouraging the team and members are. I am so happy with what Fit and Fabulous have to offer and they go the extra mile in making special occasions fun and part of the routine. Love it!

Fit, fabulous and FANTASTIC! This place is such a great addition to the upper mountains.
So great to find a supportive place to build real fitness and health, with enough range so you can do your favourite things (eg: Pilates and yoga) plus try out new programs- like Barre.
Angela and the team strike just the right balance between building fitness and having fun. All the instructors are super knowledgeable and professional, and are experienced enough to bring an encouraging and inclusive vibe to the class.
