Pilates reformer studio


 

My opinion:

Space & Light studio shares the same space as R-evolution which provides other gym classes like pilates reformer, RIOT, TRX and MMA Fitness. There are 3 rooms used for yoga classes. Studio 1 features full length windows overlooking Sentosa but doesn’t have mirrors. Studio 4 is equipped with heating panels for hot yoga and it has mirrors and Manduka mats. Studio 5 where I had my non-hot class did not have mirrors, heating panels or any view. The mats were not Manduka but of good quality. On the other hand, blocks, straps and yoga bolsters were from Manduka. The changing room was big and spacious and facilities were good. No signs of wear and tear were visible. I like the condition of the studio overall but perhaps I would enjoy my class better with mirrors or in Studio 1 where there’s a nice view. The in house café serving healthy food is definitely a bonus. However, the whole place felt more like a fitness gym rather than a yoga sanctuary. It would be better if more elements of yoga were present.


Pros: Clean and polished looking studio with good facilities and good quality props.
Cons: Lack of view or mirrors in some rooms.
Rating: 8.5/10
