Live music in Bangkok
Live music in Bangkok means Pilates sessions built around a DJ and beats. The classes lean toward the evening, with the sound setting the pace and a red-lit room that changes the feel of the practice. Most of the collection sits at LŪMA Yoga Studio in Khlong Tan, where the movement is core focused and built to get you sweating.

Pilates set to beats
Almost every class in this collection combines Pilates with a DJ or beats, and nearly all of them focus on the core and pelvic floor. The music sets the rhythm of the movement, so the session feels closer to a dance cardio class than a quiet mat practice. Mat Pilates appears in a smaller share of classes, and strength work is common enough to notice across the schedule.
Heat and red light
A few classes run in infrared heat at roughly 36 to 37 degrees, with red light on through the session. The Pop class, for example, pairs core work with soothing warmth and mindful breath. Several of the dance based sessions start in a warm room and then drop the heat, so the temperature changes as the class moves.
When the classes run
Classes run mostly in the evening, with a smaller group in the afternoon and none before 9am. The earliest start in the collection is 2pm and the latest is 7:45pm, and weekends carry about half the classes. Friday, Saturday and Sunday are the days when most of the sessions take place.
Live music: questions and answers
When do most people practice?
Most of the classes in this collection run in the evening, and about half fall on weekends. Friday, Saturday and Sunday are the busiest days, and the start times cluster around 2pm, 5:30pm and 7:45pm.
Is this collection mainly Pilates with music?
Yes. Everything in this collection is a Pilates class with a DJ or beats, so the music is part of the practice rather than an extra. A few classes are taught in infrared heat with red light, which changes the feel of the room.
Which class is a good first step?
Dance Pulse Pilates is a 45 minute class that starts warm and moving, then moves into a red-lit room for the rest of the session. It combines dance cardio with Pilates strength, and the description notes there is no choreography to learn, so you can follow along without preparation.
Where do these classes take place?
The classes in this collection are led at LŪMA Yoga Studio in Khlong Tan, which has the most classes of any studio here. A handful of facilitators lead the sessions, with Bernardo B and Jib Sansuk leading the most.
How long are the classes?
The classes here mostly run about 45 minutes, with some 60 minute sessions. That makes them a short practice to fit between work and evening plans.
