How the week runs
The schedule is built around hour-long classes, most of them in the late morning and around midday. The busiest days are Wednesday and Friday, and the common start times are 11am, 12:15pm and 4pm. Evenings and weekends are not part of the timetable here, so a weekday midday visit is the easiest way to fit a class in.
The classes cover a broad range. Balance, core and pelvic floor, flexibility, flow and yoga are all on offer, and many are open to all levels. Barre sits alongside them as its own practice, drawing on ballet and contemporary dance.
Who leads and who it suits
The studio is run by a small team of facilitators. Marissa Rott and Mag. Gunther Attarpour lead the largest share of the classes. The taekwondo sessions have their own focus, with the poomsae group designed for active tournament competitors and the freie DAN preparation class for students working toward their black belt exam.
Because the taekwondo sessions have specific entry requirements, it helps to read the level notes before choosing a class. The rest of the timetable is open to a wider range of students.

Is it good for beginners?
Yes, there are options for beginners. A good number of classes are marked as open to all levels, such as the balance, flexibility and yoga sessions. The taekwondo poomsae group is only for active tournament competitors, and the freie DAN preparation class requires a minimum rank of 3. Kup, so check that level before booking.
What are the taekwondo classes like?
Taekwondo classes here are split by purpose. The poomsae performance group is for active tournament participants and those starting out in competition, and it prepares them for upcoming contests. The freie DAN preparation class is an open practice session for students aiming at their black belt exam, with registration required.
What happens in a barre class?
The barre class is built on the idea of combining ballet and yoga. Each session opens with warm-up sequences, then moves to exercises at the ballet barre drawn from classical ballet, followed by movement phrases inspired by contemporary dance. It runs for an hour, like most classes here.
