About This Experience
At Sweat & Social, we love bringing different experiences together in a way that makes space for movement, discovery, and genuine connection.
For this one, we're teaming up with Quantum Fernwood Hub for an afternoon that brings together movement, creativity, and wellness, with plenty of time to enjoy it all without rushing from one thing to the next.
From a throwback Pilates class to a hands-on art workshop and complimentary mini treatments, there's space to try something new, connect with local practitioners, and spend a Saturday afternoon in good company.
Come with a friend or come solo. There's room for both.
The Pilates Class | 90s & 2000s Throwbacks
Led by Melissa, owner and operator of Quantum Fernwood Hub and Reformer Studios, this 55-minute mat Pilates class brings a throwback soundtrack to your movement practice.
Teaching movement since 2010, Melissa blends strength, playful sequencing, and opportunities to challenge yourself while moving at your own pace.
Expect fun, challenging but accessible movement set to some of your favourite tracks from the 90s and 2000s. Come ready to move, turn up the music, and have a little fun.
All mats and Pilates props are provided.
Get Creative | Paper Landscape Collage
We're welcoming Willow, a Victoria-based artist and designer, to lead a hands-on paper landscape collage workshop for everyone attending.
Working with torn paper, shapes, lines, and colour, you'll create your own unique landscape while exploring the playful, process-focused side of making art.
No artistic experience is needed, and all materials will be provided. Just show up, experiment, and enjoy creating something with your hands.
It's a chance to step away from the everyday, try something different, and leave with a one-of-a-kind piece of your own.
Complimentary Wellness Experiences
Throughout the creative and social portion of the afternoon, you'll have the opportunity to explore complimentary mini treatments with practitioners from the Quantum Fernwood Hub community.
Joining us will be Ali Kay of Ali Kay Holistic, whose practice includes reflexology and holistic skincare; Evelyn of Refined Rituals Lymphatic Wellness, who specializes in lymphatic wellness, restorative bodywork, and skin-focused treatments; and Emma Mansell, who recently joined the Quantum community and specializes in personalized beauty treatments, including spray tans, lash lifts and tints, and lash extensions.
Each practitioner brings something different to the experience, offering a chance to discover local talent and enjoy a little extra care as part of the afternoon.
We'll share more about the practitioners and the specific mini treatments available as we get closer to the event.
A little note on treatments: Mini treatments will be complimentary, with limited availability on a first-come, first-served basis. Sign-up sheets will be available at check-in.
Fresh Sips & The Social
After moving, creating, and exploring the wellness offerings, there'll be time to enjoy refreshments and connect with the people around you.
We're connecting with In Er G Plant Alchemy, a local plant-based business known for its juices and wellness shots, to bring a fresh addition to the afternoon.
Enjoy light bites, refreshments and our signature Sweat & Social swag bags. It's an opportunity to discover local businesses, meet new people, and enjoy a little time for yourself without having to rush off to the next thing.
