Live List: Online Exercise Classes to Do in Your Living Room

By George Hadgelias

Working from home, or self-isolating? These workouts – which include yoga and Pilates, cardio and strength training – can be done at home too. And many of them are free to access.

We’re updating this list as new classes become available, so check back regularly. Get in touch via email if you are running classes online.

Many Australians have already begun social distancing, self-isolating or working from home as result of the coronavirus outbreak. Some gyms and fitness studios have adapted by running smaller classes or banning props, while others have pivoted online to offer instruction with zero in-person contact.

At-home exercise has evolved since Jane Fonda’s workouts took the world by storm (frankly, they still stand up) and nowadays there are yoga and Pilates classes, living-room-friendly workouts, and free apps to lead you round the park. Here’s a running list of what we’ve found.

• Universal Practice at Home is an online platform that gives unlimited access to more than 70 classes by the Melbourne-based pilates and physiotherapy studio – including Pilates, strength training, yoga and meditation – for $49 per month.

• Fitzroy’s Good Times Pilates has now gone fully online, running classes three times a day at 8am, 10am and 5pm. Book in for a class here.

• Melbourne-based yoga teacher Annie Belcher shares downloadable audio classes for free on her website. She’s even posted a special Yoga at Home class for people who are self-isolating.

• Fluidform Pilates has an at-home program with targeted pre-recorded workouts for all levels of fitness. It’s $49 per month and the first monthly payment includes a free equipment pack.

• Couch to 5K isn’t strictly for indoors, but the nine-week, app-led running program can definitely be done solo.

• A Melbourne couple created the Callie fitness kit ($75), which is designed to help you replicate a gym workout at home. There’s also a guided online workout you can do called Quarantine With Callie.

• Sydney Yoga Collective is live-streaming its 32 yoga classes. It’s $10 for unlimited access and there’ll be five free classes available weekly, too.
