Our Story

February 2015 & two London-based Pilates enthusiasts meet for lunch & leave with an idea to bring reformer Pilates into a mainstream sphere in Oslo. We didn’t know each other well (sounds risky, right?!), but armed with our moleskins, a love of Pilates & a gut feel for great chemistry together, we met regularly in London & Oslo over the next 3 years to plan our brand & studio before opening in January 2018 having become the best of friends! Lucky ending.

Kindly put, our beginnings were humble. We built the business one client at a time in a 25 square meter room in a shared block of flats on the west side of Oslo with some interesting neighbours. At that time, whilst we certainly didn’t have a show-stopping studio, we became known for high quality instruction & the depth of knowledge of our clients. These days, you’ll find our beautiful, newly refurbished boutique studios in Frogner, Skøyen and Ullevål.

We have always felt very focused about our vision for SPACE: teaching expertise, warmth & variety, delivered by a collaborative team of highly qualified Pilates professionals who make it fun!

We’re not here to tell you that Pilates is the only thing you need - it’s not! We believe that Pilates should be the foundation for a broader approach to a healthier lifestyle. The other parts that form the whole are as unique as you! Pilates is a highly versatile practice that, aside from correcting posture & increasing strength & homeostasis, also enhances the other activities in your life that are important to you - that’s one of the many reasons we love it.

At SPACE, we celebrate individuality & we’ll help you find your special connection with Pilates. You’ll always have the warmest of welcomes with us - we can’t wait to meet you!
