The City of Rockingham runs pay-on-arrival pickleball sessions on the indoor courts at Baldivis Indoor Sports Complex. There are two kinds: pickleball games on Wednesday mornings and Sunday evenings, and cheaper casual sessions on Tuesday and Friday mornings.
Chen-style tai chi in the Zhu Tiancai lineage, taught through a ten-week beginner program aligned with WA school terms — posture, breathing, silk reeling and the 13 Postures routine — at Troy Park in Attadale on Saturday mornings, with a second venue in Safety Bay. Beginner classes run on donation; annual membership is $40.
Nollamara Tennis Club runs social pickleball three times a week on its outdoor courts. Visitors pay a $10 fee, paddles are supplied, and newcomers get a short introduction before playing with rotating partners.
The trail-race organiser also runs a free social trail run in Kings Park every Thursday evening, 8-10km with the group staying together.
A free social running group run by The Running Centre, meeting twice a week in central Perth for 6-10km runs split into smaller pace groups.
A free morning run and walk club that meets on the grass opposite il Lido at Cottesloe: Fridays at 6am, every second Sunday at 7am, and the last Wednesday of the month at 5.30pm. Groups head out for fifteen to thirty minutes and turn back, so the distance suits whoever turns up, and walkers and dogs are as welcome as runners. The monthly evening session finishes with dinner.

As of October 2026, 6 of the 89 Fitness & Movement listings on Oria Haven are in this view (Perth) — counted live from the directory.
Every listing is hand-checked by Oria Haven. Figures updated 8 October 2026.
Most relevant means practices that specialise in this first, then the ones with the most reviews to go on. A listing that publishes its price, describes itself and names its services gets a small nudge, never more than a quarter of a star, because you can decide on it without ringing. Paid placements are shown once, in their own band, and never move anyone up the list.

The guide
The distinction that trips people up here is reformer versus mat. Reformer pilates uses the spring-loaded machine and almost every studio will put you through a foundation class or two before letting you into the general timetable — not upselling, just how the machine works. Mat classes need none of that and cost noticeably less.
Around them sits everything else that moves: barre borrowing from ballet, tai chi and qigong in halls and parks and often the cheapest thing on this page, assisted stretch studios selling 25 or 50-minute one-to-one sessions, and aqua classes at council leisure centres, where you pay per entry rather than per class.
Two notes on money. Private health funds stopped rebating pilates as a natural therapy in 2019 — the exception is when a physiotherapist delivers it as physiotherapy. And personal training is usually sold in blocks, so ask what happens to unused sessions before you buy ten.
