Frequently Asked Questions

Of course. We offer training options suited to different levels, from beginners to experienced participants. What matters is not where you start from, but that you start from the point that is right for you.

You don’t have to know. By looking at your goals, your experience and your needs, we can decide together on the discipline and way of working that suit you.

Yes. Through our short initial assessment process we learn about your training background, your goals and the points that need attention.

With some health conditions, an assessment by a doctor or the relevant health professional may be needed before starting exercise. Our initial assessment form helps us to notice situations of this kind.

We don’t think of there being a particular age limit for starting to move. Programmes are planned around your current condition and your goals, not your age. If you have a health problem, we recommend that you consult your doctor first.

In the first weeks the aim is not to push you hard, but to get your body used to moving again. The difficulty is increased gradually as you adapt.

We offer a range of movement and training disciplines, chief among them Pilates, fitness and yoga. Our disciplines and programmes continue to develop and diversify from one period to the next.

Yes. Depending on the discipline, there are options for working one-to-one or in a group. You can choose the model that suits you according to your goals and preferences.

Our programmes are planned for different levels of experience and fitness. We know that someone starting for the first time does not have the same needs as someone who has been exercising for a long time.

Yes, the disciplines can complement one another. For example, someone who does fitness can benefit from yoga for range of motion, and someone who practises yoga can benefit from Pilates for core control. You can work out with your trainer which combination makes sense for you.

Your goals and preferences may change over time. If they do, you can talk to your trainer and look together for a way to move to a discipline or way of working that suits you better. You can get up-to-date information on the conditions for switching from us.

It would not be right to say that one is superior to the other. In one-to-one work the programme is built entirely around you; in group work the energy of moving together comes to the fore. The choice depends on your goals and on how you like to work.

Yes. A trackable training experience is one of the important parts of ATC’s core approach. With our technological infrastructure and our trainers’ assessments, we aim to make your process as measurable as possible.

That depends on your goal, the discipline you choose, your current fitness and your daily life. Our trainers help you to build a routine that is sustainable for you.

We use technology not to turn our members into numbers, but to get to know them better. We track the training process, observe progress and combine the data we gather with our trainers’ experience.

Yes. The programme is not a fixed list; it is updated according to how your body responds, your progress and your changing goals.

This varies from person to person; it would not be right to promise a definite timescale or result. Regular attendance, rest and daily habits are the deciding factors. Our aim is to track your progress and make it visible step by step.

Taking a break can be a natural part of the process. When you come back, you continue not from where you left off, but from a point that suits your condition on that day. You can get up-to-date information on the conditions relating to membership from us.

You can find out about our current trial class and introductory meeting options through our contact form or on WhatsApp.

We talk about your exercise background, your goals, the pace of your daily life and anything we need to be aware of. You can also ask whatever comes to mind about the disciplines, the ways of working and the process.

Sports clothes you can move comfortably in and some water are enough. For fitness you need trainers with non-slip soles; yoga is practised barefoot. We share the details specific to each discipline at the first meeting.

We recommend that you don’t eat a heavy meal just before a class, and that you don’t arrive very hungry either. A light meal an hour or two beforehand suits most people.

A measured programme you can keep up is worth more than an intensive one that doesn’t fit into your life. We set up the weekly routine together around your pace; in busy periods the programme can be lightened.

When you start a new kind of training, you may feel mild muscle fatigue in the first few days. A sharp or stabbing pain, or one that does not pass within a few days, is a different matter; in that case we recommend that you let your trainer know and see a health professional.

Moving more during the day is a good start: walking, taking the stairs, breaking up long periods of sitting. You can talk to your trainer about suggestions specific to you.

A personalised nutrition plan is the province of the relevant specialists. You can find out from us whether a service of this kind is currently available at ATC.

Neither. ATC is a movement space that brings together Pilates, fitness, yoga and other movement disciplines with a scientific approach, technology and qualified trainers.

We believe that performance is needed not only when you are competing, but in the course of life too: climbing the stairs, playing with your child, working, travelling. We see training as preparation for these moments.

Yes. ATC’s story began with exactly this idea: being athletic does not belong to athletes alone. You can read more on the About page.

We aim for a setting in which your trainer knows you, knows your goals and cares about your progress. We do not separate professionalism from warmth.
