VATA Signature

Both. VATA Signature is VATA Studios’ own class: a fusion of yoga and Pilates, curated by our founder Chantelle. It is the same sequence each week, so you notice yourself improve. It sits in the Pilates series alongside Classical, Sculpt and Strength, but it draws on yoga’s mobility and breath as much as on Pilates’ core control and strength.

The name reflects the creative, multifaceted nature of Vata, the Ayurvedic energy of air and space in motion. Like Vata, the class is varied: it bridges functional strength with fluid mobility, and effort with ease. It’s the class we think of as the heartbeat of our studio, so it carries the studio’s name.

You can try VATA Signature during your intro fortnight, because the offer covers every class type. As it runs at 40°C and asks for both strength and mobility, it helps to have a class or two behind you. VATA Signature is more of an intermediate level class, so tell your teacher it’s your first Signature class and take the options offered.

VATA Signature runs in a hot room at 40°C, warmed by infrared panels. If you’re new to heated classes, drink water through the day, bring a large towel, set up near the door where the air is cooler, and rest whenever you need to.

VATA Signature, our yoga and Pilates fusion, is taught at VATA Studios in Adelaide’s south, with studios at Level 1, 447 Brighton Road, Brighton, and 58B Beach Road, Christies Beach. This week’s timetable shows when and where it runs, and you book in the VATA Studios app. New members can start with two weeks unlimited for $49.
