The Owners

We have lived in Hong Kong for over 13 years, and recently moved to Sai Kung so that our family could enjoy the wonderful range of opportunities for a healthy and active lifestyle that this area has to offer. The only thing that we felt the community needed was a well equipped gym, so deciding to provide that service ourselves, we came up with the idea of launching Lifestyle Fitness Gym and Studio.

Thanks to the help of our team of experts, we feel that we have created a welcoming and satisfying space that will be just what you are looking for.

Yoga & Pilates

Nocky

Having worked in offices for many years, Nocky knows just how unhealthy it can be working long hours and sitting down all day. That's why she dedicates most of her free time conducting various Yoga and Pilates classes in and around town, helping people switch off from the daily grind and tune in to their bodies. We are very pleased to take advantage of the fact that she now wants to dedicate more time working closer to home and that you will benefit from the in-demand Yoga and Pilates classes she runs on Sundays.

Catherine

Catherine is another of our dedicated teachers, having taken the widely recognised Yoga Alliance registered course after practising the discipline for several years. She spends most of her time travelling around Hong Kong passing on her knowledge and experience to her students who are fortunate to benefit from her exhuberance and passion for the sport. Her areas of expertise are in the teaching of Hatha, Ashtanga and Yin Yoga as well as Yoga Stretch and Restorative Yoga. Her classes run during the weekday mornings and are the perfect start to your busy day.

Dawn

Dawn has taken various Yoga courses in India and runs several classes around Hong Kong, including Kids Yoga. She runs some of our weekday classes plus a Saturday morning kids class, which may be just the tonic for calming the monkeys down! On a serious note, children do have amazing flexibility and this class usually produces impressive results.

Jenny

Jenny has also taken courses in India and her experience now allows us to offer a wide range of Yoga classes throughout the week.
