Spacious Pilates Reformer studio with machines ready for class in Cork City
Posted on

On August 2nd, we’re opening the doors to something truly special, Reformer Pilates in Cork City Studio, and you’re invited to be among the first to experience it!

We’re moving just across the hall from our beloved studio at 52 South Mall into a brand-new, purpose-built space — your expanded wellness hub in the heart of Cork City. This beautiful, bright studio is home to Himalaya Yoga Valley and our newest offering, ālaya Pilates — bringing authentic Yoga, Mat Pilates, and now Reformer Pilates together under one roof for the very first time.

Whether you’re deepening your yoga journey or stepping onto the reformer for the first time, this is your space to grow, breathe, and thrive.

Why Reformer Pilates? Why Now?

Reformer Pilates is a powerful movement system that builds strength, improves posture, and enhances mobility — all while staying low-impact and accessible. Using spring-based resistance machines (our brand-new Flexera reformers), you’ll be guided through dynamic movements that tone the body and calm the mind.

And the best part? It’s now available right here at your favourite studio.With the launch of ālaya Pilates, we’ve become the only dedicated studio in Cork offering Yoga, Mat Pilates, and Reformer Pilates in one inspiring location. No more bouncing between studios. No more choosing between strength and stillness. You now have everything under one roof — with double the space and double the opportunity to move well and feel great.

Reformer Pilates for Every Body

At ālaya Pilates, we believe Reformer Pilates should be accessible to everyone — no matter your background or experience level.

That’s why we’re offering three class levels, designed to meet you exactly where you are:

  • Fundamentals – A gentle, supportive class for beginners or those returning to movement
  • Level 1 – A strength-building flow to improve control, coordination, and confidence
  • Level 2 – A dynamic, challenging class for experienced students ready to elevate their practice
  • Level 3 – Advanced flows with deeper resistance, fewer transitions, and a strong focus on control and precision.

Our expert teachers will guide you with care and precision every step of the way. You’ll be in great hands with:

  • Lisa Fahy – Teaching Fundamentals and Level 1
  • Sinéad McDonald – Teaching Fundamentals, Level 1, and Level 2
