{{Meet}}
Renee Scott
With a career spanning ballet, Pilates, and global fitness education, Renee is a leader in mindful movement training. Her background as a professional with the Hamburg Ballet laid the foundation for her dedication to movement. She initially trained under Cynthia Lochard, followed by Pilates elder Romana Kryzanowska, and added further certifications through Pilates International, Balanced Body, and BASI’s exclusive Passing of the Torch Mentor Program. Her most impactful mentors have been Nora St John and Rael Isacowitz, who inspired through their positive and approachable leadership qualities, expertise and passion for Pilates.
After twenty-four years as the owner of Balance Moves in Bondi, Renee sold the studio in 2025 to concentrate on her passion: instructor training. Today, through Body Maestro, she delivers transformational programs across two complementary brands: Barre Attack, a dynamic fusion of ballet, Pilates, and functional fitness, and Balance 8 Pilates, which focuses on practical applications of Pilates repertoire and principles. Renee’s workshops and trainings are designed to be directly transferable, ensuring that instructors leave with inspiration, confidence, and sequences they can use the very next day. Her mission is to empower teachers to harness their unique strengths and deliver classes that uplift, challenge and inspire.

The Early {{Days}}
Renee’s career began at the Royal Academy of Dance, the world's leading organisation in classical ballet education. Using this as a springboard, Renee received a scholarship with the Hamburg Ballet School, where she completed her Diploma of Dance while performing with the renowned Hamburg Ballet Company.

Finding a Love
For {{Pilates}}
Upon returning to Australia, Renee discovered her passion for Pilates. She pursued this new interest by completing her first Pilates course in New York with Romana Kryzanowska, a first-generation Pilates instructor trained by Joseph Pilates and considered one of his leading disciples.
origin story
The First
{{Studio}}
In 2001, Renee founded her first Pilates studio, where she became certified in the Pilates International Method, a teacher trainer with Balanced Body Pilates, and gained specialist certifications in pre- and post-natal Pilates. During these years, she also expanded her knowledge by earning a diploma in yoga and completing various group and personal training fitness courses.
origin story
Bondi BEACH and {{THE SHIRE}}
Until 2024, Renee called Bondi Beach home, where she ran her own business, Balance Moves Pilates & Barre Studio. After selling the studio in 2025, she and her young family returned to the Shire in Southern Sydney. There, she now dedicates herself fully to her greatest passion, instructor training.
Today, through her company Body Maestro, Renee leads transformational programs across two distinct but complementary streams: Barre Attack, a high-energy fusion of ballet, Pilates, and functional fitness, and Balance 8 Pilates, which focuses on applying Pilates repertoire and principles in practical, accessible ways. Renee’s courses are intentionally hands-on and immediately applicable, giving instructors the confidence, inspiration, and knowledge to transform their teaching the very next day.
Renee's vision is clear and powerful: to help teachers harness their unique strengths and deliver classes that both uplift and challenge their communities.
