About Our Space

Ellen Masson

Owner of Your Movement Space

About Me

Hello!

I'm Ellen (they/them), and I'm committed to helping you cultivate a sustainable relationship with movement. My approach extends beyond merely providing exercises and sending you on your way. I aim to understand and address your unique barriers to exercise, explore your past experiences, teach you the science behind how exercise works, and find enjoyable movements for you to engage in.

When I opened Your Movement Space I had one mission. To create an environment where you can accept your body, engage in movement at your own pace, and discover your own path to physical activity.

I believe in meeting you where you are because this journey is uniquely yours. Learning a new way to experience movement takes time and doesn't follow a linear plan. It can be a challenging and even frustrating process at times, but we'll navigate it together at a pace you're ready for.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are the most frequently asked questions from the lovely humans who contact us.

What is an Exercise Physiologist?

Accredited Exercise Physiologists (AEPs) are university-qualified health professionals who specialise in using exercise to manage and prevent chronic conditions and injuries. They complete a four-year degree and are trained to support long-term health by guiding behaviour change. AEPs work with a wide range of individuals; please see our services for more details.

What services do you offer?

Ellen provides a personalised exercise physiology service that includes establishing movement safety and preferences, analysing your unique barriers to exercise, and planning movement engagement both during and outside of sessions where relevant.Additionally, they offer education to empower you to eventually manage your exercise routine independently.

Do you offer online/Telehealth sessions?

Yes, Telehealth sessions are available for all services. Contact us for details.

What should I expect from my first session, and what should I bring?

Your first session with Ellen will primarily be a relaxed conversation to get to know each other and establish goals and direction for our work together. If you engage in any movement, it will be gentle and likely involve a movement assessment. Please wear comfortable clothing that allows for unrestricted movement, bring a water bottle, any footwear including sandals, and any relevant medical reports or referrals.

I’m new to exercise. Will the sessions be too intense?

Not at all! Sessions are tailored to your comfort level, ensuring they feel safe and manageable while aligning with your goals and desired outcomes. Ellen will offer options to adjust movements as needed and encourage you to listen to your body and avoid movements that don't feel right.

Can I bring a support person or animal to my session?

Yes, you are welcome to bring support person or animal to YMS. Please inform Ellen in advance of the session and confirm with them.

What amenities and access an are available at YMS?

Entry & Stairs: The main entrance features three sets of five steps, each equipped with a landing and handrail. A flat-access entry is available; please inform us in advance if you require it.

Seating: The waiting area includes a long bench and an armless chair with a capacity of over 200 kg. Inside the studio, there is a bench with a weight capacity exceeding 300 kg.

Bathroom: A unisex, easily accessible bathroom is located 2 meters from the waiting area on the same level.

What are the transport and parking options nearby?

There is plenty of street parking options nearby, with time limits ranging from 1 to 4 hours. Some spaces require payment via parking meters, while others are free but time-restricted. If you're unfamiliar with Kirribilli, I recommend arriving 10–15 minutes early to allow time to find parking.For those using public transport, Your Movement Space is just a 5-minute walk from Milsons Point train station.
