Reviews
Caitlin Somerville
★★★★★“I love that I can do both Pilates and strength training in the one place, which makes fitting workouts into a busy week so much easier. The trainers are amazing, especially the pre- and post-partum specialists who really understand how to support women through different stages of life. Arc is a welcoming, supportive space for women. Everyone is there to encourage each other, and there’s none of that intimidating gym culture you find elsewhere. It genuinely feels like a community.”

★★★★★“Finding quality Mums & Bubs fitness classes can be surprisingly difficult, so I was thrilled to discover Arc offers three different Mums & Bubs options on their timetable. While I haven’t tried all of the studio’s classes, I’ve attended the Mums & Bubs sessions and they’ve been fantastic. Eleni’s VitalMama class has been a particular standout. She creates such a welcoming, supportive, and encouraging environment for mums at all stages of their postpartum journey. The female-only studio feels comfortable and inclusive, and it’s clear that the team genuinely understands the unique needs of pre- and postnatal women. Being able to bring my little one along without feeling stressed or out of place has made such a difference. I highly recommend Arc to any mum looking for a supportive space to rebuild strength, prioritise her wellbeing, and connect with other women navigating motherhood.”

★★★★★“I’ve been going to Arc for the past 9 months and absolutely love it! The mix of strength, cardio and reformer Pilates classes keeps things fun and motivating, and there’s something for every mood and fitness goal. The instructors are all so friendly, supportive and knowledgeable and really make the experience enjoyable. Such a welcoming community and the highlight of my week, highly recommend!”

I love that you can do a mixture of both Pilates and gym strength classes under one membership and all the trainers are super lovely and attentive.”
