Experience the serenity of Pilates at Westin Sendai's Enhancing Moment Vol.5
On August 26, 2025, Westin Hotel Sendai is set to host the fifth edition of the wellness event series, "Enhancing Moment Vol.5." Located 110 meters above the ground, the event will offer participants a unique opportunity to experience Pilates in an aromatic and tranquil setting while taking in breathtaking views of Sendai and the surrounding landscape.
The concept of "well-being" takes center stage at Westin, and this event is designed to help attendees attain a state of both physical and mental satisfaction. The program will be led by Ami Takahashi from Body Studio GRACE, who has crafted a Pilates session themed around "Light Body with Summer as an Ally" to ensure comfort during the hot summer months. This specially curated class will not only enhance flexibility but also improve daily performance, aligning perfectly with the growing global popularity of Pilates.
Participants will engage in this original aroma Pilates menu in a spacious, aroma-infused environment. As an added treat, those who wish can experience aerial yoga, where they will float gracefully within hammocks, allowing them to unwind while admiring the lush scenery around them.
After the physical activities, guests can recharge at the Horizon Lounge & Bar located on the 26th floor, enjoying a plate lunch that includes a selection of salad, soup, a main dish, and dessert, all served on a single plate. Following the delightful meal, attendees can participate in a workshop to create their own mini-diffusers, made from upcycled grapevines. Participants can blend their choice of three essential oils sourced from natural materials in Tohoku and take home a unique scent, ensuring a personalized experience.
The day begins at 9:30 AM with optional InBody assessments for those interested in measuring hydration levels, muscle mass, and more. Participants can receive real-time data about their body's composition to enhance their wellness journey.
