Wellness is always a little easier with a cute four-legged companion to distract you.

Overview

You might be a pro at reformer pilates, with red, blue and yellow springs alike quaking in fear at your flexibility and core strength. Maybe you're a mat pilates expert, who needs newfangled machinery? Well, let's see you get through a pilates class with a straight face when you have a pack of puppies in the room. No, it's not a good dream, it's happening at Decathlon's Sydney CBD store on Saturday, May 17.

Decathlon usually dabbles in dealing out sportswear, but recently opened its first fitness studio in Australia, with 220 square metres of space within its Wynyard store devoted to offering accessible fitness classes to residents and workers.

There's no bloated subscription fee here. Decathlon is celebrating the milestone with a month of affordable fitness classes, including yoga classes, reformer and mat pilates, and free Lagree Microformer sessions.

Since pilates is all about uplifting the mind through the body, it makes a whole lot of sense to have the uplifting presence of some adorable puppies to up the whimsical ante. Tickets to the two Saturday classes (at 10am and 12pm) are limited, and go on sale from Friday, May 9, so don't wait around to secure yours. Decathlon has also unveiled a range of pet gear that will be available later this month, in case you pick up a fondness for pilates with a furry friend.
