    I had struggled with back pain & stiffness so needed to sort the problems out. Tried 3 pilates company, although the teaching was good, but at Focus I’ve never felt stretched the way they did. Attended several classes where Yin Jay has made me feel totally at ease, explaining every exercise & move expertly. I now feel that my core strength has improved along with balance & posture. I would thoroughly recommend Yin Jay classes 100%. Thanks Focus

    The instructors are friendly. There are wide variety of onsite and virtual classes to choose. You have monthly newsletter as well. Just the toilet is too limited - only 2 toilets and 1 shower room for females.

    Have been with Focus for a few years and will keep going back. Simply because the instructors are great and the exercises work. My low back pain has improved, so has my strength and balance. Kudos especially to senior instructor Sun, whose infectious positivity, sunny disposition and creative spin on the exercises keep her Saturday group coming back every week!

    Been a client here for more than a decade. Great team of experienced instructors learning with Julie for gyro, Dan for pilates. My lower back pain and spinal mobility has improved with gyrotonics and pilates classes here.

    I've been a regular to Mike's Strength & Conditioning classes for a while now. It's a lovely full body workout, sometimes with weights, sometimes without, but always with a bunch of fun loving folks. The banter in class makes the sets fly by, and there's never a dull moment. Whilst Mike's choice of playlist does show his age sometimes, he's actually a really, really sweet young soul, inside and we love him very much!

    Elva was patient and explained every movement. I appreciated how precise her instructions are and how she guided me. This is definitely the best reformer pilates class I've been to and I had a good workout. There are two small showers with soap and shampoo. Towels provided too.

  • 5/5 Alicia T. 2 months ago on Google • 6 reviews New
    Instructor Sun was awesome! Super engaging, humorous and never a dull moment during class. She knows all the right muscle groups to target and work on, it always felt so good after class. In fact all the instructors that I had took classes with at Focus are superb, very professional and clear in explaining every step of the workout and correcting our postures when needed. I’ve been with the studio for years, and even switched from reformer to prenatal classes during my pregnancy, and back to reformer classes again… it’s pretty obvious I’m a big fan. :) Equipments at the studio are well maintained. Staff are generally friendly and helpful. Class offerings are diversified as well. Only con is that the classes are almost always fully booked! But I guess this is a happy problem as it goes to shows the popularity of the studio!

    Registered for a trial reformer class to experience the difference between a yoga/pilates and a reformer class. Elva was our instructor and she’s very friendly. She explained in the detail the next steps we had to do, introduced the machine to us, corrected our movements so that we had a good session. The class was enjoyable and every part of our body was well-stretched. It would be good if the session could be longer. Thank you Elva for this wonderful experience.

    I found Dragana to be very thorough & professional. Explained my 2 reports clearly like my doctor did and advised me on home exercises & things I should do to help myself till I next see her. My 1st session also had some RF treatment & massage. Overall very satisfied.

    I find Focus Pilates to be the best pilates school in Singapore. The instructors are very professional and dedicated, be it 1-1 sessions or group classes. The receptionists are very friendly and welcoming, especially Vanessa who goes the extra mile for customers.

    Their Pilates teachers are all quite good - they know their stuff, can explain/demonstrate well and are friendly. Their CBD location is very convenient for office workers around the area.

    Worst experience ever! In search for a nice Pilates and wellness studio near work, this is Not the one! Terrible customer service. Reception only opens later in the morning even if there are classes earlier in the day. No proper covid checks in place. Their not accommodating attitude just ruined my Friday morning!

    I like trainer Elva because she is patient and will correct my body posture when she sees it's incorrect. She is friendly and has a nice accent which makes the lesson authentic.

  • 5/5 Elizabeth Mae O. 2 months ago on Google • 32 reviews New
    This review is long overdue. I attended group classes at Focus Pilates and absolutely loved every class and teacher. The teachers, even the newly certified teachers are very clear and effective with cueing, each session was a good amount of challenge giving us a good workout and leaving us feeling taller, stretched and stronger. In my experience, the teachers are very well versed with what your body needs which is so important so I'd absolutely recommend this studio. ❤️

    Been attending the Reformer - prenatal classes with Felicia & the classes have been truly great. The classes helps with both strength and mobility and I do feel great after every session.

  • 5/5 Dini Subbiah (. 1 month ago on Google • 13 reviews New
    I started doing classes here at the recommendation of my physiotherapist. I have back and knee pain from previous injuries and as I got older am battling with daily stiffness and pain. Since I’ve started I’ve felt the pain reduce oh so much and I have increased strength and stability for running and weightlifting. Also love the teachers, especially Haley!

  • 5/5 Diana K. 1 month ago on Google • 8 reviews New
    More than 10 years in this studio and I’m still eagerly awaiting my weekly 1:1 Pilates class. Lovely staff members and superb instructors. Environment is clean and calm making my sessions an enjoyable one.

    Been attending focus private 1 on 1 and 1 on 2 classes for a year already. Instructors are generally well informed and friendly. The studio environment is warm and cozy. Highly recommend to all who are new or experienced in pilates to join Focus.

    Very friendly staff and cozy environment. My first group class instructor-Rina is attentive to correct my posture while pushing my limit safely. Great class.

  • 5/5 Praviinaa S. 5 months ago on Google
    I have been coming to focus movement for about 6 months now and I really love their reformer pilates classes. I have been attending classes under Elva and Felicia and they have been really great instructors. They always make sure that the pace is acceptable for us with easier variations when needed. Will definitely be continuing my package with Focus Movement. Also love the convenience of the location

  • 1/5 KY A. 5 months ago on Google
    Friend recommended I try Focus to experience Polestar certified Pilates. Attended a trial for Beginners but was very disappointed by the instructor whose instructions were neither clear nor audible. There was also no cues/checks on alignment or breath work. I think she’s a foreigner & command of English was simply not adequate to instruct or motivate students.

  • 5/5 Shawn S. 6 months ago on Google
    Elva was a great instructor. Enjoyed the trial class. Highly recommended.

  • 5/5 Rick M. 5 months ago on Google
    I have been coming here for over five years and the results are consistently great. The staff know their clients well and make those small adjustments that can really make a difference. Highly recommended!

  • 5/5 Mei C. 4 months ago on Google
    I've been coming to Focus Movement for a few months and I like the environment and friendly staff here. My physiotherapist, Yanting, is very detailed and knowledgeable. I like that they have reformer pilates here and after seeing her, I have improved quite a bit and feels stronger. Well on my road to recovery! Thanks!

  • 5/5 Glen T. 4 months ago on Google
    A superb experience with Focus thus far. The progressive stages prepares us to be ready for each lesson at our comfort. Special mention to Elva who helps me stretch every part of my body thru her lessons. Thoroughly enjoying it.

  • 5/5 Annie T. 4 months ago on Google
    Really enjoy the sessions at Focus pilates. My posture has greatly improved. Cozy environment and very lovely (+professional) instructors and great customer service at the counter! :) Especially enjoy my sessions with my instructor Elva.

  • 5/5 Angela C. 4 months ago on Google
    I’ve been attending both 1 on 1 classes with Beatriz and group classes for more than 2 years with Focus Movement. These sessions have greatly help me with my body posture and helps strengthen my muscles. Thanks to the professional guidance, I personally experience the biggest change of myself is during my recent trekking trip which I wasn’t aching after my daily trek as compared to my previous one I did, which I was sore for a few days after. My regularly leg training through Pilates on top of my weekly trekking has really prep me this time with my trek. Definitely enjoy my sessions at Focus and the benefits I gain through pilates.

  • 5/5 Rella M. 3 years ago on Google
    Best pilates studio I've ever found in Singapore. Lots of classes to choose from, morning/afternoon/evening, very amiable instructors - extremely patient, encouraging and corrects form diligently (and they give amazing cues during the sessions which explain the logic behind various movements). Studio right in the heart of Raffles Place - towels, water dispenser, clean and tidy locker room, everything nicely organized.

  • 5/5 M B. 1 year ago on Google
    You're awesome. All the trainers are very competent and pleasant. Our core muscles and posture are benefiting from the regular sessions. You're an extension of our family!

  • 5/5 Cheryl C. 2 years ago on Google
    I went for the trial a few months ago and have enjoyed my session there. I have signed up for a package subsequently. I attended different sessions with different instructors. All of them are friendly and patient in helping me get to the correct movement. Really enjoy the session there! :)

  • 5/5 Jaenatte D. 2 years ago on Google
    1) Attentive instructor (correcting as needed and encouraging throughout the class) 2) Well-maintained facilities 3) Beautiful workout space

  • 5/5 Sam S. 1 year ago on Google
    Quick response to my initial enquiry and subsequent requests to change my appointment. Physiotherapist was knowledgeable and I do feel better after my initial session.

  • 5/5 novem c. 1 year ago on Google
    The front desk staff always make time to answer our queries. They are patience and friendly. Instructor maintain a good standard and effort to tailor each session during my past 8 mths here. My progess is very satisfying. Highly recommended Haley, she is my instructor. Studio is always neat and clean

  • 5/5 Dani C. 9 months ago on Google
    I enjoyed my first session very much (reformer fundamental class)! Instructor Haley is very attentive to each student and the class size was small for group class which provided a safe learning environment. Front desk was very polite and welcoming during my registration and showing me around the studio.

  • 5/5 Clarice 9 months ago on Google
    Signed up for a 10 session package after the trial class - no regrets. The studio is clean, the instructors are clearly well-trained and each class are kept small, well focused. Instructors are very attentive and they focus on form and sometimes tailor for each student. highly recommend!

  • 5/5 Amanda L. 10 months ago on Google
    I started Pilates with Focus almost 2 years ago and love it. Their instructors are very knowledgeable and fun to engage. I love the fact that I can still exercise even when I hurt certain area of my body (from other activity). The instructors are brilliant to advise you what to do to avoid that particular strained muscles . I mainly attend Sun and Haley’s group class, but every instructors are great there!

  • 5/5 Sieun K. 10 months ago on Google
    I have been attending classes at the Focus for about 3 years now, and I have noticed a significant improvement in my flexibility, strength, and posture. The all instructors and physios are not only knowledgeable and skilled, but they make each class enjoyable. The reception staff are also kind and welcoming all the time!!

  • 5/5 Charles S. 10 months ago on Google
    I’ve been going to Focus Pilates since I moved to Singapore several years ago. I feel so lucky to find the studio as all teachers at Focus are passionate, friendly and knowledgeable with their teaching. The studio also a place where they train the next generation of teachers - that’s also a great reason to choose a studio. My usual group classes are with Daniel and Beatrize but other teachers are amazing too. Thank you for saving my lower-back! Highly Recommended! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

  • 5/5 Felicia O. 10 months ago on Google
    Claudia has great knowledge and experience! Just attended a group class by her, and adjustments were given if you were not in a correct posture. Enjoyable class! Front service staff were also responsive and friendly, overall great vibes from Focus!

  • 5/5 V O. 9 months ago on Google
    I've trained with Focus since at least 2016, and have benefited a lot from the classes. The regimented and rigorous instructor courses/exams that all instructors have to complete do make marked differences to how sessions are conducted here, the instructions and cues they give to correct the form, the attention to details. Shoutout to Mike-Jason Statham with whom I've thoroughly enjoyed lifting kettlebells and dumbbells with as much as wineglasses 🥂, Beatrix 😄 for always challenging our limits urgh 🫠 and Nicole for her well-rounded well-planned classes and humour 😄 Thank you Focus team!

  • 5/5 P T. 11 months ago on Google
    Thoroughly enjoy my sessions at Focus. Rina is a great instructor alongside many like Haley and Elva and others. Tina’s sessions are tough but also varied which makes things always interesting for the class. She’s upbeat and encouraging and tries her best to correct each participant’s posture. Have benefited a lot.

  • 5/5 Suan Chin C. 8 months ago on Google
    Elva is an excellent coach. She is very patient, paces us when we exercise and corrects our movements well. Most of all, we have fun every session with her. Thanks for keeping us healthy and happy, Elva!! Vivien is also very helpful and accomodating. She responds very promptly to all our questions and requests for scheduling of lessons. Thanks Vivien!!

  • 5/5 Wei Eng N. 8 months ago on Google
    Comfy atmosphere. Non-threatening, not intimidating. Instructors do their best to help. Even seniors attend the sessions. Age range is wide. People here take exercise seriously, and help is readily available. So I think the balance at Focus Movement is good. Standard of instructor ability and of care/help is high. The vibes are good and healthy. Thank you! Please keep it up!

  • 5/5 Yuss L. 8 months ago on Google
    Focus offers professional instructors training in a very condusive environment and mentors have been very friendly, helpful and informative to all students. I enjoy my lessons here. Special thanks to all the instructors who put in a lot of effort into teaching all of us.

  • 1/5 K W. 4 years ago on Google
    Went for a trial physio session, they are quite pushy for you to book a following session. If you book a next session and for some reason did not cancel it, they will charge you a no show fee of $53.50.

  • 5/5 Justina C. 7 months ago on Google
    Love this studio. It has shower, hair dryer and all the shampoo and soap. It is clean and bright Love Sun Bok energy! Time passes so fast during her class. Truly enjoy every lessons here :) thank you all the instructors.

    Love the classes at Focus Movement, clean and professional, every instructor is great but I definitely love Nicole and Elva’s classes best. I’ve been coming for 8 months now and it’s still my favourite workout every week.
