Our latest feature introduces Alia, the founder of Sculptō Pilates Studio in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Sculptō Studio is a serene, modern sanctuary with a mission to offer a holistic fitness experience that aligns mind and body through the art of controlled, precise movement. We sat down with Alia to hear about her journey, challenges, and dedication to empowering her community through wellness. Here are Alia's insights.

 

1. Can you share the story behind the founding of your studio?

Sculptō Studio was born out of my deep passion for low-impact strength training that sculpts the body without causing harm. As women, we navigate hormonal cycles and different energy levels, and I found that this form of training kept me fit, toned, and energized without depleting my body. While living in NYC, I led a fast-paced life and needed an effective, time-efficient workout. Reformer workouts and Pilates delivered that and more—it became a form of active meditation, helping me focus, release stress, and feel rejuvenated. Bringing this transformative fitness experience to my community in Riyadh has been both challenging and deeply fulfilling. My journey with Sculptō is driven by the desire to empower others to feel strong, confident, and balanced in their fitness journey.

2. What makes your studio unique compared to others in the area?

Sculptō Studio offers something truly special—a balanced approach that merges effective workouts with essential recovery. Our unique method blends Pilates with megaformer-style strength training which is a new method and concept to Riyadh. Clients get to experience a powerful workout that sculpts their bodies while protecting their joints. We don’t just focus on fitness; we focus on wellness as a whole. Our state-of-the-art recovery room and assisted stretching sessions allow clients to nurture their bodies, enhance flexibility, and promote healing. With our cutting-edge reformer machines, expert trainers, and a luxury environment, Sculptō Studio is more than a place to work out—it’s a sanctuary where you can reach your full potential.

3. How do you ensure the quality and effectiveness of your classes and instructors?

At Sculptō Studio, quality is at the core of everything we do. We are committed to offering classes that challenge, inspire, and deliver results. Our instructors undergo a rigorous selection process and ongoing training to ensure they stay at the top of their game. They are all certified professionals from around the world, bringing their diverse expertise and passion to every class. We invest in high-end, custom equipment, and we actively seek feedback from our clients to continuously improve and fine-tune our offerings. We believe that excellence is not just a standard—it’s a mindset that we bring to every aspect of our studio.

4. Can you share a memorable success story or testimonial from one of your clients?

We are eagerly awaiting the opening of our doors to create success stories that will inspire and motivate others. Our goal is to make Sculptō Studio a place where clients not only see physical transformation but experience a shift in their overall well-being. We can’t wait to help our clients achieve results that extend beyond the physical—fostering confidence, strength, and a deep sense of balance in their lives.

5. What upcoming events, workshops, or special programs are you most excited about?

We are thrilled to be launching Sculptō Studio with a special event in collaboration with Lululemon, where we’ll offer free classes, healthy treats, and an exciting activation for the community. It’s an opportunity to experience what Sculptō is all about—fitness, wellness, and community. We’re also offering an exclusive intro package, along with a special discount for the first month of sign-ups. This is the perfect time for new clients to discover Sculptō and begin their journey toward a healthier, stronger self.
