What Happens at The Wellness Lab?

The morning runs as two rotating groups, each covering all four stations. Arrive at 10:30am (Group 1) or 11:00am (Group 2) and you'll move through everything before midday.

Korean skincare workshop by Muun Skincare

Muun Skincare runs a hands-on Korean skincare workshop where you'll actually use the products on your own skin, not just watch a demonstration. A reusable tool set is included. Arrive bare-faced so the products can do their job properly.


Mat Pilates with abit.of

Instructor Vanessa leads a Zen-style mat Pilates session using abit.of foldable mats and Pilates props. Think breathwork, controlled movement, and actually using your core rather than just thinking about it.

abit.of mats are 6mm TPE, weigh 650g and fold to the size of a small bag. They're what we practise on at home, and what we're bringing to the event.

Matcha service by Kure Lab and Chawu Tea

Complimentary matcha, served by Kure Lab featuring Chawu Tea. Kure Lab's approach to matcha is unhurried and precise: the kind of preparation that actually asks something of you. Sip slow.

Cat cafe at Cha & Zak's Clubhouse

The venue itself is Cha & Zak's Clubhouse, one of Sydney's best-known cat cafes. Your ticket includes 30 minutes of time in the cat area. There are no goals, no targets and no protocol. Just cats.

Who Is Leading the Pilates Session?

Vanessa is a qualified Pilates instructor with a focus on mindful, accessible movement. Her approach suits all levels, whether you've been practising for years or you've never been on a mat outside of a yoga class. The session at The Wellness Lab is designed to feel grounding rather than challenging, a good way to start a Sunday.

 

What Do I Need to Bring?

  • Comfortable, moveable clothing. You'll be on a mat for part of the morning, so leggings or joggers work well.
  • A bare face. Arrive without makeup or skincare for the Muun workshop so the products can be applied properly.
  • Nothing else. Mats, Pilates props, skincare products and matcha are all provided.

 

Who Is Behind This Event?

The Wellness Lab is a collaboration between four Sydney brands. We each do something different, but we share the same view: wellness should be practical, enjoyable and accessible rather than aspirational and expensive.

  • abit.of makes foldable yoga mats and Pilates accessories designed for everyday home practice. Our mat weighs 650g and folds to fit in a bag. We're based in Sydney and ship across Australia.
  • Muun Skincare brings a Seoul-inspired approach to skincare, focusing on effective formulations and hands-on education rather than complicated routines.
  • Kure Lab is a Sydney matcha stand with a simple belief: every sip counts. You'll find them at Paddington Markets on Saturdays and Parramatta Farmers Market on Wednesdays. At The Wellness Lab, they're bringing that same care to your morning cup.
  • Cha & Zak's Clubhouse is a cat cafe in Marrickville hosting the event. The space is warm, intimate and genuinely one of the nicest rooms in Sydney to spend a Sunday morning.
