VAURA Pilates — a premium reformer Pilates brand under the FIT House of Brands portfolio — has reached a milestone of ten studios globally with the grand opening of its Menteng location in Jakarta, Indonesia. This move marks the brand's first entry into the Southeast Asian market and reflects the surging demand for premium, method-driven fitness experiences in urban centers where the fitness industry has grown into a $2.3 billion market.
VAURA Pilates' latest studio is situated in one of Jakarta's premier luxury retail and lifestyle hubs. The company celebrated this major milestone with a ribbon-cutting ceremony and an opening weekend featuring live music, a photo booth, flash tattoos, and nail stations.
VAURA Pilates boasts 50-minute classes, led by certified trainers and set to curated upbeat music under neon lights. These serve to fuse the precision of reformer Pilates with the dynamic power of athletic training.
