NYC’s Cult Pilates Studio VAURA Lands in Dubai This October in DIFC
VAURA’s classes are high-intensity, full-body affairs that leave you wondering if you accidentally signed up for a Cirque du Soleil audition.
New York City's VAURA, the reformer Pilates studio that’s been quietly amassing a cult following in the US, Singapore and Australia, is opening its first Middle East outpost right in DIFC this October.
VAURA’s classes are high-intensity, full-body affairs that leave you wondering if you accidentally signed up for a Cirque du Soleil audition. There’s dramatic lighting, mirrored ceilings, and playlists that make you want to both lunge and dance, though maybe not at the same time (for breathing purposes).
The vibe is somewhere between “boutique fitness studio” and “underground nightclub,” with less glitter and more core engagement. Expect reformers that look like minimalist sculptures, trainers who are equal parts encouraging and slightly terrifying, and a lot of muscles you didn’t know existed.
VAURA officially opens in October at P2 Central Park Retail, DIFC. Whether you’re a Pilates purist or just someone who enjoys sweating in a nice setting, consider this your chance to balance on a moving platform without the fear of open water.
