Inner Studio - Collingwood (VIC)

5 /5 Jack Moss: Really enjoyed my session at Inner Studio. The space has a great feel to it with all the greenery, and the mix of breathwork, heat and cold exposure was a great way to reset. It’s a relaxed environment but still pushes you in a good way. I left feeling refreshed and clear-headed.

5 /5 Caitlin Bartlett: Loved coming here! The staff made time to show me around for my first visit. There’s signs to guide you through the sauna, cold plunge, warm pool rotations if you need. The place was hygienic and offered towels for the sauna and had conveniently placed showers to rinse off before entering the pools. There are amenities to use like body wash and hair dryers to freshen up before you leave. Best of all there’s a nice area by the fire to warm up by with herbal tea and activities before you leave

5 /5 Andy Rosenhain: I have been to Inner Studio about 6 or 7 times now and I always enjoy it there. it’s a great vibe to relax. the sauna is very spacious and a really great design with big windows at either end. the cold plunge is cold enough to be challenged mentally, and the hot plunge is also hot enough that my body can really relax. The filtered drinking water and showers feels very clean and a great addition!

2 /5 Shandelle B: Disappointing Experience in an Otherwise Beautiful Space This was my third visit to Inner Studio — and unfortunately, a second disappointment. My first visit was marred by inconsiderate guests who were rating women’s bodies amongst other things, but since that could have been a once off, I decided to give them another chance. The second time was a much better experience as I did one of the breathing classes followed by the cold plunge and sauna. I suspect this brings in a very different crowd as I honestly had such a wonderful experience that time. This time, though, it wasn’t unruly patrons but a group filming professional content for Instagram - complete with a cameraman! If you’re going to host a shoot with footballers, the least you could do is let those with a pre-existing booking know or do it after hours. The last thing paying guests want while sitting in a pool or sauna is to overhear off-season banter from the forward-line or be asked to move aside for the next shot. This wasn’t a few casual selfies - they were filming a podcast at one point. The warehouse itself is a beautiful space, but the experience continues to be undermined by poor management and a lack of professionalism. Inner Studio feels less like a thoughtfully run wellness business and more like a place for its owners to host mates, film content, and chase a vibe, rather than deliver a consistent guest experience. I read a review from an LGBTQI patron who discussed the lack of non-gendered changing spaces. While I can’t speak to that broader issue I did however feel during this visit that this is twice I’ve felt a definitive “bro” energy and lack of sensitivity to the atmosphere could make the space feel unwelcoming or exclusionary to some guests.

5 /5 Jac Jac Jacqui: Gorgeous space with beautiful energy! One of the few places that’s better in real life than online. All the little touches that have been carefully and intentionally thought of make all the difference. Just joyful, I will be back!
