The Health Lab

The Health Lab is the fitness studio connected to Northern Quarter health food cafe The Green Lab. It focuses mainly on pilates (reform, mat and infrared mat) but also offers sound healing, strength and barre classes.

If it’s your first time on a pilates machine, start with The Reform Lab class which introduces you to the essential moves. If you’re already confident in reformer pilates and want to feel that muscle burn and fatigue, try the intermediate level Tone Lab.

The Health Lab offers Manchester’s first infrared mat pilates classes which use heated mats to increase flexibility, detoxification and muscle recovery. Their mixed abilities barre workout is another popular class, though they warn you to expect some serious burn and shaking. It’d be rude not to go for a replenishing juice or salad upstairs afterwards.
