Studio 281 has unveiled the upcoming launch of its Cambridgeshire studio on 12 October, its fourth UK location. Located at Unit 1, The Mount in Toft, it will offer a community-led fitness experience, top-end equipment and custom classes. Sharing its home with Revive Wellness, it forms a perfect partnership between holistic health and cutting-edge reformer Pilates. Hoping to create a sanctuary for wellness and connection, Studio 281 is known for its inclusive approach and extensive class schedule. As the founder, Georgia, explains: “We’ve always wanted to create a space where people feel supported. It’s not about being a certain type of ‘Pilates person’, it’s about coming together, achieving things they never thought possible and leaving every class feeling better than when they arrived.” Community members joined staff and volunteers from The Edge Cafe for Cambridge’s first Recovery Month sponsored walk to raise money for its services, which support people living with addiction and mental health challenges. Funds will buy Freedom books for survivors of domestic violence, art supplies for workshops and 1:1 peer mentoring sessions. STUDIO 281 REVEALS ALL-NEW LOCATION The Edge walk
