As a person who dislikes running and going to the gym, I find workouts like pilates to be the perfect alternative that keeps me fit and healthy. In addition to being motivated by words of encouragement from instructors, I believe that a studio’s ambience and aesthetic also play significant roles in pushing my limits.
If you share the same sentiment as me, here’s an aesthetic pilates studio in Singapore for you to check out.
Located just a minute away from Telok Ayer MRT Station, Ally is a pilates studio that makes a memorable first impression the moment you step inside. Their minimalist interior and muted colour palette create a calm and soothing atmosphere, and there’s no way you won’t be awed by their spacious furnishings.
After registering at the counter for your class, cast your gaze on their in-house cafe, Neighbourhood. They offer an array of beverages, and one of their must-try menu items includes smoothies, which are available in flavours like banana, oat, and pistachio. Yum.
Before you head for your class, store your belongings in the locker room. Unlike some places that offer lockers with keys, rest assured that the ones at Ally keep your items safe with an electronic lock. This means you won’t have to worry about losing the key while you break a sweat.
Be sure to also fill up your bottle at the water cooler, located as part of a pillar in the middle of the locker room. Since the water cooler offers both still and sparkling water, you can choose either one to keep yourself hydrated.
A highlight of Ally is no doubt their reformer studio, which features 14 reformer beds for you and your fellow fitspos to endure the burn and build strength.
Considering how pilates is a low-impact and high-toning workout, it requires a lot of concentration and discipline to execute the moves. This is where the aesthetics of the studio come into play. If you look around, you’ll also notice a row of plants at the back that provides zen and calm to the overall space.
Once you’re done with a class, look forward to freshening up with toiletries from Aesop. What’s amazing is also the fact that you can use Dyson products to dry and style your hair. This means you won’t have to worry about losing your curls after a shower.
Social butterflies can also consider catching up with their fellow classmates in the common area after class. Choose to either sit by the window or on the spacious sofa while sipping on your post-workout smoothie.
Whether you’re looking for a new pilates studio or just getting started, Ally is an aesthetic pilates studio in the CBD for you to consider. Apart from pilates, Ally also offers spin classes for those who prefer a higher-intensity workout.
