EDIT: the studio is now expanded to 7 machines which I think is a good thing, guess that means the studio is getting popular and hopefully it’ll be easier to book classes with them. Also since writing my review I have also tried a Sunday class with Chean which is another very positive experience! Challenging but very fun class! ———————————————————————- Just had my first beginners’ class here with Michelle and what a positive experience! I actually did two beginners’ classes before at another studio but I wasn’t showed properly how to use the machine even though I did mention it was my first time. Whilst here Michelle made sure she checked with each of the student whether it was their first time and showed everyone how to use the machines. The class was fairly challenging but Michelle was very encouraging, and with only maximum 5 students per class, she got to focus on everyone and ensured everyone is getting the hang of it. I left the class loving the workout and looking forward to more lessons at this studio! Will definitely try out more with different instructors but for sure I’d love another class with Michelle too :)

I was initially nervous about trying Pilates since I mostly stick to the gym, but it turned out to be one of the best decisions I’ve made! The studio is fantastic—spacious, well-equipped, and beautifully maintained. The instructors are knowledgeable, supportive, and take the time to explain every step thoroughly, making the experience both enjoyable and accessible. A special shoutout to Mike for his welcoming and encouraging approach, which made us feel right at home. I had an amazing time and can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend!
