Hello there!

It's winter, the season of delightful street snacks like bungeoppang, hotteok, and hobak! But indulging too much can leave me surprised at how round I've become. The cold weather makes me reluctant to move, craving only sweet and warm treats.

However, we should manage our bodies a bit for spring when we’ll shed our cozy padding, right?

So, let me introduce you to Anyu Pilates, a must-try for those looking to diet and strengthen their core.

Anyu Pilates

(Located in Jeonju, Jungwhasan-dong)

Address: 4th Floor, 264 Baekje-daero, Wansan-gu, Jeonju, Jeollabuk-do (across from Jongno Pharmacy, Olive Young building)

Business Hours: Mon-Fri 9 AM - 10 PM / Sat 9 AM - 12 PM / Sun 9 AM - 11 AM

Parking: Available in the building's underground parking and a free public parking lot behind the building.

Trial classes are available.

Anyu Pilates has several branches in Jeonju. The one I visited is the Jungwhasan location! It’s easy to find, located on the 4th floor of the Olive Young building right across from Jongno Pharmacy.

The view from the 4th floor is refreshing, with large windows offering a city view.

The front desk is tidy, and you can see the lesson schedule and booking methods at a glance. There seem to be five instructors available.

Anyu Pilates in Jungwhasan has special wristbands for beginners or those exercising for rehabilitation, showing their care for members.

Even in group lessons, the instructors are attentive to individual needs, which is impressive!

The changing room has ample lockers and only the essentials like a scale and coat hooks. Unlike places with showers that can get messy, this simple changing room feels more comfortable. The heated floors keep it warm, making it pleasant to exercise in winter.

Anyu Pilates has two exercise rooms: PILATES.A with Reformer and Cadillac equipment, and PILATES.B with Chair and Barrel equipment.

PILATES.A has ten machines with mirrors on the wall to check your posture while exercising. The machines are spaced out enough to avoid bumping into others.

PILATES.B has mirrors at the front to help you check your form during workouts, and the equipment is also arranged to provide personal space.

I worked out with the barrel equipment, and wow, my inner thighs, back, and glutes were trembling! It had been a while since I exercised, and my body was not cooperating. Thankfully, the sweet instructor provided clear explanations and corrected my posture carefully, allowing me to finish the lesson safely.

With a toning ball tucked behind my knees, I did glute-strengthening exercises, and my whole body was shaking! The instructor made it fun and easy to understand, even for beginners.

Just like in Room A, there are various small tools like foam rollers and stability balls available for use.

Anyu Pilates also sells workout clothes and specialized Pilates socks, so you can easily find what you need. I rushed to buy socks online before my visit, but I could have bought them there!

In this cozy winter, instead of outdoor workouts, how about finding those hidden muscles at Anyu Pilates? I feel like my glutes are reaching for the sky after my workout!

If you're hesitant about exercising in the cold, don’t just think about it—head to Anyu Pilates in Jungwhasan!
