Eleven years. Two studios. One community.
In 2015 two sisters opened Ritual in Palm Beach and borrowed a word from their mum. Eleven years on there are two studios, a school, and a community that turns up in the rain. This month we are saying thank you the only way we know how — by making it easier to practise.
Eleven years of Ritual
OpeningHow a word from our mum became two studios, a school, and a community that keeps coming back.
In 2015 we were two sisters with a lease, a stack of borrowed mats and no real plan beyond wanting a space where people felt looked after. We spent weeks arguing about what to call it. Then our mum, Deb, said “Ritual” — almost in passing, the way she says most things — and that was the end of the argument.
It turned out to be the right word. A ritual isn’t a burst of motivation or a six-week challenge — it is the thing you return to, and it survives busy months, bad backs, new babies and the years when you barely make it in. What we did not expect was how much of it would be built by other people: the member who brought her sister, the teacher who came in on a Discovery Pass and now leads her own Sunday class, the hundreds of graduates teaching in studios we’ve never set foot in.
So this is a birthday issue. The offers, the trainings, the practices and the Open Day. Read the parts that are yours, skip the rest, then come to class.
Six months ofeverything,for $1,111.
The Ritual Birthday Bliss Pass — every class we run, at both studios, for six months. Normally $1,705. This month, $1,111. That is $594 back in your pocket, and about $43 a week for unlimited Yoga, Reformer, Mat Pilates and Barre.
And eleven guests, on you. Eleven guest credits come with the pass — one for every year — so the people you keep telling about this place can finally come with you.
The four birthday offers
All SeptemberFour of them, because no two practices look the same. Some of us come for the strength, some for the quiet, and some for the one hour in the week that belongs to nobody else. Whatever brings you to the studio, our four birthday offers are here to support you and your practice — and all four are built around the same number. All four close at 11.59pm on Wednesday 30 September.

Ritual School — the last intakes of the year
TrainingsThe final two trainings of 2026, and the rest of the calendar returns in 2027. Enrol this month and you start next year with a new skill and a different way of seeing your own practice — rather than waiting until 2027 to begin. Eleven years ago we were the ones being taught; now our timetable hosts a number of classes led by people who trained in these rooms. Tap a training to open it.
Two hundred hours of Hatha and Vinyasa — the internationally recognised foundation for teaching, and just as often taken by people with no intention of teaching at all. Anatomy and biomechanics, philosophy, pranayama, sequencing, and the practice of holding a room, taught by Rose across six months.
Our foundational Yoga certification, run as a hybrid: three in-person long weekends on the Gold Coast, supported by six months of online study you complete around your life.
Enrol any time to start using your 50 class credits and open your online content immediately — the study begins the moment you say yes, not the moment the doors open.
- Weekend 1 · Friday 13 – Monday 16 November
- Weekend 2 · Friday 20 – Monday 23 November
- Weekend 3 · Saturday 28 – Monday 30 November
- Classes run between 8:00am and 5:00pm
- 50 Yoga classes at Ritual included · 1:1 session · instructor toolkit
- 6 months to complete · ongoing support after you graduate
Four days of in-person training across our Gold Coast studios, 8:30am to 5:30pm, Friday to Monday. Open to everyone — whether you’re brand new to Yin or already deep in the practice and ready to share it.
Alex brings a rare combination to this training: biomechanics, Traditional Chinese Medicine and acupuncture, study in Rishikesh, and Zen meditation. You’ll meet Yin through the body and through the energetic theory that underpins it.
- 4 in-person days · Friday 27 – Monday 30 November, 8:30am–5:30pm
- 25 Yin classes at Ritual included
- 10 class observations (5 for YTT graduates)
- Yin training manual + learning platform access
- Teaching opportunities & ongoing support
- 6 months to complete

Gift cards & gifted passesMost people don’t find us through an advertisement; they walk through the doors because someone they trusted encouraged them to try a class. Birthdays, Christmas, thank-yous, sorry-you’ve-had-a-year — this is the one present people actually use.
The least awkward present we sell, and the one people actually use
A gift card, any amount. It works on everything we do — classes, the Bliss Pass, an Eleven Pack, the store, even a teacher-training deposit. They choose. Delivered by email the moment you buy it, so it also solves the present you forgot.
Or gift the pass itself. Buy them the Birthday Bliss Pass at $1,111 and they have six months of everything, at both studios, with nothing to set up and nothing to cancel. An Eleven Pack at $111 does the smaller version of the same thing — eleven classes, eleven weeks.

Eleven ways to spend an hour with us
The practicesSometimes you find one class and stay in it for years, and there’s nothing wrong with that. But bodies change, weeks change, and the practice you need in March isn’t always the one you needed in September. So here is the whole menu. Try the room you have been walking past — an Eleven Pack is a good excuse, and nobody in there is looking at you.
Open Day — Sunday 27 September
Everything free
Every class we run, FREE.
For one day the whole timetable is open and nothing costs anything. Yoga, Mat Pilates, Reformer, Barre, meditation — every class at Palm Beach and Robina, free to anyone who books in.
It is the easiest possible way to try the thing you have been meaning to try, and the easiest possible way to bring the person who keeps saying they’ll come. Nobody is looking at you, and everybody in that room started somewhere.
Eleven years of you
Thank youA studio isn’t a lease and some equipment. What makes it a studio is who walks in — eleven rings, one for every year, and every one of them drawn by you.
Thank you — from Rose, Sophie, and everyone who has carried the meaning of bringing you to your Ritual.
Eleven things you might not know
Did you know
You do not need to be flexible. Flexibility is an outcome, not an entry requirement — and the people who arrive least flexible tend to notice the biggest change.
On Sunday 27 September every class we run is free, at both studios. No membership, no catch — just book a spot like any other class.
Members get 25% off every workshop and event we run, plus one free members’ workshop a month.
You can pause a membership. Holidays, injuries, busy quarters — it is built to bend rather than break.
A good part of our timetable is taught by people who trained here — your teacher may have once been a student in the room next door.
Yin isn’t just stretching. Long, passive holds load connective tissue rather than muscle — which is why three minutes feels considerably longer than three minutes.
Our community classes are taught by our newest graduates at a lower price. You get a class; they get the hours. Everybody wins.
A deposit holds a teacher-training place and opens your classes the same day — $389 this month instead of $500, with another $111 off the balance later.
Train with Ritual School once and you keep 15% off every future training, for life. Graduates can return again and again, always able to enjoy this alumni discount.
Gift cards work on everything — classes, memberships, packs, the store, even a training deposit. They are the least awkward present we sell.
There are two studios and your membership covers both. They run different timetables, so if your usual class doesn’t suit this week, the other one might.
