Unfortunately most of the classes are not made for people who have normal working hours.

So I am really glad that I've found this evening class.



I really wonder why all these interesting things are only during the day....

Yes, I went to have a look yesterday, it's much better, but unfortunately it is a concrete floor and no good for any exercise with impact.

Buy a pilates/yoga DVD.

The DVD shop at Alsancak can get hold of them.

I went to Club Fit as well, (it was closed but someone with keys let me in) there is a little area in the corner of the room, which is just 'an area' not a studio. Although if I knew the price of the classes beforehand, I wouldn't have bothered going, thats expensive.



Katara, it's more Ozankoy than Catalkoy, there's a pretty big sign on the main road, it's down the same road as Star Bowling in a basement under the shops. There is one big room with a good selection of free weights and weight machines.



The problem with DVDs of yoga and pilates is that these two forms of exercise are such an exact science that they require correct instruction to make sure you have the all-important correct alignment and positioning. They are a way to get you exercising, but it's very difficult to make sure you are doing things safely, there is no substitute for having an instructor present to make sure of this.



I hopefully will have something to report re. classes on the east side very shortly!

Thank you jacktheladeth! You are so right about alignment and the correct way of doing the exercises. You can never replace instruction with a video!!!
