New Pilates Studio: Miarce in Shimoakatsuka

Miarce will officially open its doors in Shimoakatsuka, a neighborhood in the Itabashi Ward of Tokyo. Operated by CHART Inc., the studio will offer a range of classes aimed at providing effective and personalized Pilates training for individuals at all fitness levels.
Pre-Opening and Free Trial Classes
Before the official launch, from September 4, 2026, Miarce will host a series of free trial sessions, welcoming anyone interested in experiencing this unique form of exercise.

Chikatetsuakatsuka Station on the Tokyo Metro. This accessibility makes it easy for locals to visit and participate in classes.
Tailored and Supportive Environment
