Love taking Gigi and Jess's classes at XYZ! When you check in at the front, they quickly provide you with your cycling shoes (rental included in each ride) and a locker key. I personally like taking the bikes on the side so that I can follow the moves better, especially when we need to be in sync with the music, "left right left right". The class style is quite similar to Soul Cycle, dark room with club-like lights, about 5 or 6 rounds in, there is a track with dumbbells. Who said you could only work legs and not your arms?!

I was never a big fan of spin studio. I'd rather ride a bike at Shatin than staying indoors with some overly competitive gang fighting for the highest scores / fastest records, well, ironically on their same respective spots. Until I heard about XYZ, obviously. That becomes a new rule of mine recently - if a business has been mentioned by three or more friends around me, I have to try it. And as a disclaimer, I've been here for try-out class only, although I'm very likely to come back as a regular. First of all, hell yeah it's a like clubbing at Play or Volar, but with both of your feet on pedals. When the class started and the light dimmed, the vibe was really exciting, but minus the competitive bs. It was kind of relaxing in its way if you think of it, as it was my very first time ever been to a spinning class. And 5mins in? I felt like dying already. Muscles were burning, and THEN our dearest instructor Kat started getting us to double our spins. Kat was amazing, and made me realized the instructor was the most important element in the class. She motivated each and everyone of us just enough to keep our head above the water, but not to drown us with anything too harsh. I was just able to keep up an hour long lesson, (and I said I'm not the most athletic person!), but looking back from the second I started, I didn't stop pedaling at all for an hour. It made me felt really good, and surpassed any instructor-based fitness classes I have ever been.

To be honest, yes the group class rooms are a bit smaller than ifc,citi,causewaybay, but its a nice and cozy atmosphere as long as they dont pack the room full! What I like about it again is the convenience, I could do a fitness class then walk on to Hutchison house to do yoga or if I really want to do a class at Citibank as well. Also helps that this is one of the gyms clsoest to my workplace in WanChai.I really liked the selection of DVDs they provide, it makes the treadmill and elliptical machine time whizz by. they have a boxing area,lots of free weights, but not a large stretching area which isnt great. Bathrooms are nice and spacious not like IFC which can be a night mare sometimes to even change because it is SO narrow. the pure group is still unbeatable IMO :)

I've been practicing pilates for the last two and a bit years and what started as a way to rehabilitate a back injury turned in to a fully fledged love for a style of exercise that now I can't live without. I practice reformer pilates 3 or 4 times a week as a way to maintain my back strength and build strength. When I'm travelling for work my back is more prone to pain (long flights, weird beds etc) so it's very important that I keep up the exercise. This is how I found VIM. I was travelling to Hong Kong for a week of work and needed to find some classes. VIM offer group classes on a casual basis, with discounts offered for a bulk purchase of 10 classes at a time. I have now attended three classes and they have all been challenging and suited to my intermediate skill level. The teachers are knowledgable and the teaching style leans more to the traditional pilates style (yes, you'll do 100s) which I sometimes find a bit naff, but of course find effective. What I really like is that the class size (of 6) means there's more attention available for each student, with the teacher able to make adjustments and help each person a few times throughout the class Pro tip - wearing socks at VIM is mandatory but if you forget yours you can buy toesox at the front desk.

I was advised that there is reciprocity and if you are a member in the US, you can use the facilities in HK, as long as you have your card.

You have to have a membership card to swipe at the door to gain access or according to their front door, there is someone there to help you with questions about their gym starting at 11AM most days during the week. Anytime Fitness is basically a gym that is at your disposal 24 hours a day. I am familiar with Anytime Fitness in the US and I understand their niche, but I was kind of blown away simply by the cleanliness and bright decor of this space. There was barely anyone there, so how great to have this coveted spot to work out in. Antonio (a senior trainer) was helpful to me in answering questions and showing me around. Although I go to a competitor gym for my own gym needs in Hong Kong, know that Anytime Fitness is indeed in Hong Kong (Antonio indicated that this location had been open for about a year and also there are three locations in Hong Kong) and worthy of a peak.

There's less attention to detail and spinal articulation than Pilates, thus if you have back pain or are not very body aware, you may benefit more from a regular pilates class.
