About
We're in no rush.
Just breath, movement and that small "so glad I came" feeling. Studio 4 Pilates is a boutique pilates studio in Fahrettin Altay, Karabağlar, created to bring that feeling to every class.
Our approach
Instead of crowded classes, we work with classes of no more than 3 people. That way we can follow everyone's posture, breathing and movement throughout the class.
We think of Studio 4 less as a gym and more as a second home where you come to make time for yourself. We have members of every age and every level; what matters is getting started and keeping it up.
- No more than 3 people per class
- Reformer and Mat pilates
- Private, duo and trio options
- Functional training as a separate package
- Weekdays 08:00–20:00, weekends 08:00–13:00
