Pilates studios in Singapore attract students with creative move, Entertainment News"},"content":{"rendered":"

Some pilates studios in Singapore are now creating a fangirl’s paradise within their spaces.<\/p>\n

The concept? If you’re going to suffer through a plank, you might as well do it with your celebrity crush staring back at you.<\/p>\n

The trend began in China, with netizens saying that it motivates them during their pilates sessions.<\/p>\n

Singapore studios like E-Five Pilates have adopted the creative move, promoting their trial sessions on Xiaohongshu.<\/p>\n

“Zhang Linghe on Monday, Wang Yibo on Tuesday, Eddie Peng on Wednesday. Seven days a week, a different handsome guy helps to train my core every day!” said the studio in a recent post.<\/p>\n

The studio’s reformer machines are lined with mats bearing the faces of Chinese heartthrobs such as Linghe \u2014 who’s been stealing hearts in recent hit C-drama Pursuit of Jade \u2014, The Untamed’s Xiao Zhan and Romance in the Alley’s Wang Anyu.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In an interview with 8days, a representative from E-Five Pilates said that the trial will run at their West Coast outlet for a week before moving to their other branches in Woodlands, Lavender and East Coast.<\/p>\n

Blue Pilates at Sunshine Plaza is also holding trial classes using the same concept, and has a poster of Blackpink’s Jennie plastered on the wall for good measure.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

If the studio you go to doesn’t have such “incentives” for a workout, similar mats can easily be found on the Chinese e-commerce app Taobao.<\/p>\n

You might just find a celebrity of your choice to motivate you too.<\/p>\n
