About Us

Hello and Welcome! 

I'm Courtney, the founder of Onyx Active.

 

Well where to start...

Even though I had long been interested in Reformer Pilates, it was only 4 years ago that I walked into a studio for the first time. And when that first class was over I knew it was the beginning of something special. After several years of shift work sitting behind the controls of heavy earth moving equipment, I began to develop poor posture and persistent back issues. I knew I needed to make a change. 

Within weeks of starting my Pilates journey I noticed a huge shift in my body. I was no longer finishing my roster full of aches and pains. Not only did I notice I was gaining strength, I also began to correct my posture. Within two years I had completed my Pilates instructor training. Best Decision Ever! I absolutely love teaching and currently instruct both Matwork and Reformer Pilates classes.

After teaching in a studio watching people learning and performing this wonderful form of exercise, I decided I wanted to launch my own brand of products in the hope that they might help others feel the enjoyment that matches my own love of Pilates. After many late nights pondering, Onyx Active was born.

 

Fast forward to now... 

Every item that you see in this store began as a small idea from that very first Pilates class. It has taken a lot of time and research but those ideas have now blossomed into reality!

I hope that you enjoy all of our products as much as I do.

I'm just an email away if you have any questions, feedback or would just like to have a chat.
