Training in Pontcanna

Studios by the river.

Pontcanna trains in small rooms. Cardiff Pilates Studio, Plas Pilates and AJ Reformer Studios teach Pilates, Meadowside Yoga & Reflexology runs yoga, and Pontcanna Gym is the independent gym for open training. Add personal trainers such as Anna Reich and Fergal Nutrition, a kung fu school, karate, and two swimming schools for lessons.

Pontcanna Fields, bought by the council in 1947, stretches along the Taff with football pitches and the Cardiff City Riding School, and the Taff Trail passes through it. A Saturday run by the river or a weekly reformer class is easier to keep up with someone alongside you.
