Aalaya Pilates Studio

Pilates develops core/inner strength in a different way to most exercise, including yoga or gym routines. It works from very precisely controlled movement of the body, that radiates outwards, balancing the mind. With practise this creates a body/mind awareness never experienced before. Join us to bring health to your core, body and mind.

Living well in modern life requires strength, and an understanding of your body and how to look after it. Achieve this at Aalaya Pilates and you’ll be empowered to live the life the way you want.

Aalaya Pilates is a boutique pilates studio located at Plaza Senayan Arcadia that offers a wide range of international standard pilates classes. Modern life is made easy when you can power through it with a certain kind of strength - a core, inner, strength. This is a way of life we work to experience with you.
