Sala: Opinions
Positive experience: I have done 3 classes at Sala now, Barre, Dynamic Yoga and Yogasana. I have loved them all, the teachers are very knowledgeable and take a great class. The classes can get very full which is the only downfall. Otherwise I will be returning and always asking for more Yogasana sessions
Fantastic experience: Beautiful gym & great classes!
Fantastic experience: Great studio - will always come back here and the staff are lovely. Always a great workout!
Fantastic experience: Absolutely loving the Sala studio. I’ve tried a variety of classes, each one better than the last. I leave feeling energised yet relaxed. The space is clean, zen and a great place to hangout.
Fantastic experience: Amazing facility with a welcoming atmosphere. The instructors are knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely encouraging. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Great studio with a variety of classes. I’ve tried the yoga, Pilates and strength classes and have been very impressed with all of them. Very friendly staff and instructors. I love Amy’s yoga class.
Fantastic experience: I’ve tried the reformer and chroma classes and it’s always such an inviting and encouraging atmosphere! I’m new to both types of work out and the instructors are always really clear with their instructions & offer heaps of feedback making it really easy to follow! Space is always clean and fresh, awesome place to work out ☺️
Fantastic experience: This is the first workout studio I’ve genuinely enjoyed. They offer a wide range of classes, from low to high impact, so there’s something for everyone. I’ve only tried the Chroma workouts so far and absolutely love them, the mix of strength and HIIT is spot on. All the instructors are excellent and very knowledgeable, Vic Pop my go-to instructor. She brings great energy, knows how to push you without overdoing it, and makes every class fun and enjoyable. I love her charisma and personality. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Big fan of dynamic yoga. Sarah’s ability to create calm and clarity in just 60 minutes is admirable. Ngā mihi!
Fantastic experience: Love the beginner reformer Pilates classes. A good balance of moves that feel achievable and ones that really push me
Fantastic experience: Fantastic studio with lots of different classes!! Loved mat Pilates with Emma W, her energy is contagious :) visiting from Canada but I’ll be back!
Fantastic experience: Such a beautiful studio, great atmosphere and I loved the Yoga classes. The teachers were very attentive and I felt well looked after especially in the class with Eridani. Cant wait to try out more classes!
Negative experience: wouldn’t go so far as to give it a 1 star rating because i do like the facilities and most of the classes and instructors (especially nicky, tōmairangi, lauren and eridani). the saunas are great (sometimes they are a bit slack at cleaning them in between uses) and the atmosphere is generally good. booking system is great although the cancellation fees being $5 for under 12 hour notice is pretty rough. some of the instructors and receptionists though do not care about customer service. ultimately though i stopped going due to a negative encounter with the owner sarah.
Fantastic experience: Elite training, movement & recovery space in Ponsonby. Classes were fire, coaches were great & the reception area is super warm, welcoming & inclusive. Really thought out flow, love it & will be back.
Fantastic experience: Had an excellent reformer class with Natalya, it was my first time doing reformer Pilates and I felt really comfortable! Lovely vibe, not intimidating at all!
Fantastic experience: Love the Blue (full body) classes. The instructors are super motivating and you can tailor every aspect of the class to suit your abilities whilst still getting the most out of your workout. Shout out to Tomai- she always brings the vibes and you're guaranteed to work a sweat.
Fantastic experience: Have tried a few classes and love the huge range that Sala offers & plenty of class times to suit your schedule. Really loved trying Barre and my fav might be the HIIT Pilates with Ellen - she has the best energy! Not to mention that the studio is absolutely stunning!!
Fantastic experience: Emma's Sunday morning barre class is the best! Such a good work out, Emma is so enthusiastic and knowledgeable - gives great advice, and makes the class fun with great music - would 1000% reccommend!
Fantastic experience: Classes and instructors are great!
Fantastic experience: The reformer classes are really great, but I especially loved my first barre class with Loren! It was the perfect mix of Pilates and ballet , super challenging but so much fun. I’ll definitely be back!

Fantastic experience: Love Jade's Friday evening reformer classes! Such a good pilates flow and way to start the weekend. SALA is such a great studio Auckland is lucky to have!
Fantastic experience: The most beautiful space!! The barre classes are my absolute favourite - Jane and Chloe are the best kaiako <3
Fantastic experience: I bought the trial pack at Sala and have really loved trying out the variety of classes that are available. There's something for everyone. Great instructors and music to keep you motivated and the length of the classes are just right! Thanks, I'll be back.
Fantastic experience: Loved the reformer flow class and the instructor Amy was super lovely! I will definitely be back
Fantastic experience: I happened to join Jane’s Reformer Flow class on Monday at SALA, and I’ve attended three times since then. I haven’t tried other instructors in SALA yet, but Jane’s class includes my favorite kind of sequence — a beautiful balance of crescendo and decrescendo. Her classes are well-paced, with great music and rhythm, and everything feels thoughtfully designed. The class is always full, yet Jane still manages to appear beside me whenever I make a wrong movement and gently corrects my form. There are many Pilates classes out there, but I really love how Jane’s classes go beyond just workout efficiency — she has her own special sequence and flow that make each session unique and enjoyable.(I have not captured any photos of centre)
Fantastic experience: Great Studio, the facilities are always so nice and clean and the instructors are lovely. I'm obsessed with Tomai's class and playlist now.
Fantastic experience: Such a great reformer work out - thankyou!

Fantastic experience: Sala offers an incredibly diverse and thoughtfully curated schedule, with classes to suit every mood, goal, and level. The studio itself is warm, welcoming, and beautifully designed, creating a space where you feel instantly at ease. What truly sets Sala apart is its team of world-class instructors who bring expertise, passion, and genuine care to every session.
Fantastic experience: Feels like a small community coming here. Particular enjoy the Reformer classes :)
Fantastic experience: Loved my first few classes at Sala and can not wait to spend more time there and try new workouts! Jin’s reformer class has been a highlight - both a good stretch and solid workout and so appreciated the pre and post class check in with her.
Fantastic experience: Kia ora, I have been going to Sala for about 6 months now, every time i step out of a class I feel 100% better. Thank you for creating this space. I also love the variety of instructors- Nicky, Tomai and Micah's chroma classes are next level! and Otto, Jane and Chloe are so on the pulse with pilates and Barre! I have always struggled with Yoga but Nathans class has really made me enjoy yoga and i can now do a little crow pose which is unheard of for someone like me. My one feedback will be to keep refreshing the playlists for workouts. That Baddadan-Flowdan track has had its day in the sun already. Thanks whanau! keep up the awesome mahi
Fantastic experience: Great studio and classes, I especially enjoyed Power Mat Pilates with Chloe!
Fantastic experience: Absolutely love the Sala chroma classes! I get bored very easily and these keep me so engaged, they're so fun and I always feel like i've really worked myself hard.
Fantastic experience: Gorgeous workout studio! The classes are the best. The facilities are also so clean and there isn't anything else like this around in Auckland. So cute they have an area to sit and have a coffee too. Absolutely love Emma's reformer class on a Monday morning!
Fantastic experience: Great classes, good vibes and always leave feeling like I've had a good workout.
Fantastic experience: Love the Chroma classes here, such a cool vibe and always a good workout. The facilities are super clean and well set up, feels like a really nice space to train in. Whether I’m doing treadmill intervals in the Chroma Room or catching a yoga flow, Sala always feels like more than a gym - it’s a place where I feel inspired, supported, and energised. Definitely my favourite spot to go, highly recommend if you’re looking for something special in your fitness routine!
Fantastic experience: I love Sala for its variety of classes, it keeps things interesting, and the vibe is always so positive. A must do class is Chroma with Nicky Birch!

Fantastic experience: Such a beautiful space with friendly staff and varied classes, the yoga flow and power reformer are amazing!
Fantastic experience: Enjoyed my trial classes 5 for $50 for two weeks . So many time slots available for busy lives. Loved it Sala . Instructions are very helpful. I got to try reformer flow and reformer power. Also got my husband to sign up and give reformer pilates a go . Would like to try some of the yoga class.
Fantastic experience: Obsessed with Sala. I have been to Dynamic Yoga and Reformer this week and wish I had time to go every day. I particularly enjoy Monica’s classes but I absolutely love every class I’ve been to. Really love the whole atmosphere, and a huge Stan of the koha coffee with donations going to PCRF. Can’t explain it but I just feel ~well~ after I’ve been to Sala and I look forward to every visit.
Fantastic experience: So thankful I found this place! I'm obsessed with their treadmill/weights classes. The instructions are really clear with screens to assist and the studio is so well set up. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Recently moved to Auckland and signed up for the trial I have been to the Reformer flow, Barre and Red lower body classes so far. The studios and amazing and the instructors too! I have issues with my back so appreciate when instructors help make corrections! Which they have :) I did the 6.15am Lower body class this morning. Victoria is so lovely! Looking forward to trying Yogasana and dynamic yoga next :)

Fantastic experience: Beautiful place to go with a nice atmosphere, the Pilates classes I’ve done here are amazing and always give me a good workout :) would definitely recommend this studio xxx
Fantastic experience: I've attened three classes and they were all amazing. You're greeted with lovely smiles at the front before they explain where you need to be. There are lockers to use with their own keys so you dont have to worry about your things while in class. Barre with Jane and Amy works in all the right areas while still mainting a small sweat and a smile on my face. Breathe work and vinyasa with Amy A was super fun even though my legs were getting the wobbles, it's the best way to start a Sunday morning. Loved the experience and will be back again!
Fantastic experience: Had the best LED red light therapy and sauna session with my friend the other day. It was $55 for 2 people for 45 mins. Such a relaxing thing to do in the city with your friends. The sauna room is clean and relaxing. They have lockers for you to store your things. A great shower room and the hair tools. Book in advance!
Fantastic experience: Sala is a sanctuary, a community, it’s a safe place for beginners. I often feel quite overwhelmed and anxious going into a gym, but at Sala every single person there is rooting for you. If you are thinking about it! Just try it! I promise you will come out of a class in a better mindset then you walked in x
Fantastic experience: Love the sauna and contrast therapy space. So healing and relaxing.
Fantastic experience: Tried Sala for the first time this week and absolutely LOVED it! Went with a friend and immediately fell in love with the warm, inviting space and unique classes. Will definitely be back :)

Fantastic experience: Beautiful community + great workout!
Appreciate the 5 stars Rachael, thank you for being a part of our community!
Fantastic experience: I am just loving it. The new Chroma offering is so epic, really gasses you up for the day. Great music, awesome lighting. Thanks SALA
Fantastic experience: Everything about Sala feels luxurious except for the cost! Huge value for the investment. A sensationally soothing experience ☀️
Fantastic experience: Cool space and great Chroma (treadmill/weight station) class. I love how the instructors focus on form over extra weight but still give you a push to get breathing hard on the treadmill!
Fantastic experience: Great studio. Have tried a few yoga classes and also reformer pilates and instructors have always been good. Good equipment and good facilities!
Fantastic experience: I have just started at Sala and have to say it is one of my best experiences yet! The people are so welcoming and the variety of classes means there is absolutely something for everyone. I have tried the Barre, Flow Yoga and Blue Full Body classes and all have been fantastic - great instructors and the atmosphere/vibe so different in each class, so suited to the style of exercise. The little touches are so cool too ... sweat towels available and ear plugs if you don't want want the volume of music in the higher intensity classes. Thanks Sala - you have invigorated me at a time when I really needed it.
Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Sala for three years now, and I consider it my church. The owner, Sarah, has created a community and energy that is unlike any other I’ve experienced at any other yoga or fitness studio. It goes beyond ‘just a work out’. You can feel her passion, love and care as soon as you walk in the doors. A classic example of this was me forgetting my shoes to the new Chroma class and the girl on reception literally giving me the shoes off her feet so I could still participate. I recommend this studio to anyone visiting Auckland and hope that is continues to thrive and grow I feel so blessed to have it as part of my weekly routine
Fantastic experience: Great classes, nice space, good facilities.
Fantastic experience: The infrared sauna is 45mins of pure uninterrupted time to yourself. Highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: I’ve been attending Sala on the 14 day trial and have so far tried Reformer Flow, Yin and Barre. They’ve been great, particularly Reformer Flow and Barre. They definitely give you a workout. Think I’ll be signing up!
Fantastic experience: This training center offers a unique blend of humanity and spiritual philosophy. The exercises are refreshingly different from the usual routines, and the 2-week trial lets you explore their sophisticated classes. Whether you prefer yoga or more intense workouts, they have it all, plus a sauna for relaxation. With their prime location and unique approach, the prices are well worth it.
Fantastic experience: Incredible community, classes, and studio. The team at SALA are the kindest souls you'll meet around Auckland, and the variety of classes available will suit every person, from absolute beginners to seasoned practitioners. So grateful to have found this studio and highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: I felt welcome from my first step in the door. Beautiful studio, lovely instructors and staff, and great classes. Everyone has only had good things to say about Sala. I’m excited to join!
Fantastic experience: Loving Sala! First time reformer pilates goer and Sala is so non-intimidating!! It's such a beautiful space, and particular shout out to Natalya! Really loved her style of teaching and her energy and manner.
Fantastic experience: What a beautiful space!! I was visiting Auckland and loved my classes (Yoga & Reformer) at Sala! Amazing space & the staff were welcoming and helpful!! The sauna & ice bath therapy room was well worth it. Back to my online classes from Hawkes Bay ❤️❤️❤️
Fantastic experience: Such a beautiful studio with great amenities and really nice you don't have to pay to hire a yoga mat! The yoga sessions are really nice and the barre classes are epic (especially Amy's on Saturday mornings).
