## The method

Transformer Pilates™ — KARVE's signature method fuses classical, low-impact Pilates with high-intensity training — slow, intentional movement and machine-based resistance that builds strength while protecting the body.

The KARVE Transformer: The Transformer is ours alone — engineered by KARVE, found in no other studio in Jeddah. It's the reason fifty minutes does what longer, lighter sessions can't: smooth, scaling resistance that meets you where you are and grows as you do — full-body, low-impact, felt for days. Twelve fill the main studio, with a four-machine studio and a private two-machine PT room besides.

Lights low. Music high. Fast-paced, full-body, low-impact. Fifty minutes of slow, controlled resistance on the Transformer — set to a soundtrack that keeps you moving. Then five minutes of stillness to recalibrate.

## Frequently asked questions

### What is KARVE?

An innovative take on Pilates. Each session is 50 minutes — a warm-up, a full-body high-intensity workout, and a stretch and mindfulness session to recalibrate. Fast-paced, full-body, low-impact.

### Who is KARVE for?

Every level is welcome — beginners included, with modifications and hands-on support in every class. KARVE KSA is led by an all-female team of certified, London-trained instructors.

### Is KARVE women-only?

Yes — KARVE KSA is a women-only studio with an all-female team, designed as a safe, private space to move and feel your best.

### Can beginners join?

Absolutely — classes suit every level, with modifications and hands-on support throughout. After ten regular sessions you can progress to intermediate classes.

### Is there a prayer space?

Yes — there's a prayer space at the studio.

### Are there changing rooms and showers?

Yes — fully equipped, with complimentary shampoo, conditioner, soap, lotion, hair dryers and towels. Personal lockers too.

### Can I do KARVE during pregnancy (pre or post-natal)?

Yes — pre- and post-natal members are welcome with a doctor's note clearing you to exercise. Please tell your instructor before class so they can scale and modify every move to keep you and your baby safe.

### I have an injury or a health condition — can I still take part?

In most cases, yes — almost every move can be modified for you. Please get clearance from your doctor first, and let your instructor know before class so they can adapt the session.

### Is there a minimum age?

Yes — you must be 16 or older to take a class.

### How is KARVE different from traditional Pilates?

We use the custom-built KARVE Transformer with multiple resistance levels and front and back platforms. Sessions are organised by time, not reps — so muscle groups get smart recovery between moves.

### How is KARVE different from a regular gym?

KARVE isn't a gym — it's a 50-minute, instructor-led Transformer Pilates class. Instead of working out alone on weights and cardio machines, every move is guided and scaled to you on the custom Transformer: high-intensity but low-impact, building long, lean strength while protecting your body. It's women-only with an all-female team, and the KARVE Club — café, workspace and community — makes it somewhere to stay, not just train.

### How long is a KARVE class?

Every class is 50 minutes: a warm-up, a full-body high-intensity workout on the Transformer, and a five-minute stretch and mindfulness session to finish.

### How often should I come?

For most people, 2–3 times a week is ideal to feel and see the change.

### When should I arrive?

First-timers, arrive 10 minutes early for check-in and grip socks. Everyone should be on the equipment 5 minutes before start — late arrivals can't be admitted and the credit is deducted.

### What should I wear and bring?

Comfortable workout clothes and grip socks (required, and available at the studio). Water, towels and full facilities are provided.

### Where is KARVE located in Jeddah?

KARVE is at Midtown Plaza, Prince Sultan Road, Ar Rawdah, Jeddah 23435 — the only KARVE Transformer Pilates studio in Saudi Arabia.

### Is there parking?

Yes — there's parking at Midtown Plaza on Prince Sultan Road, Ar Rawdah.

### Is there a café at KARVE?

Yes — The Prickly Palm café is inside the KARVE Club, serving specialty coffee, matcha and nourishing bites. There's also a workspace and stretch room to keep you here after class.

### How much does KARVE cost?

First-timers get 3 classes for SAR 600. After that: a single drop-in is SAR 250, class packs run from SAR 950 (4) up to SAR 3,840 (24), and an unlimited Monthly Membership is SAR 3,200. Personal training packs start at SAR 575.

### Can I pay in installments with Tabby?

Yes — Tabby (split in 4, interest-free) is available on the 12 and 24-class packs, the personal-training packs, and the Monthly Membership.

### Can I just walk in, or do I need to book?

Walk-ins are welcome when there's space, but classes are limited to 12 — booking ahead is strongly advised so you don't miss out.

### What's the cancellation policy?

Cancel or change 12+ hours before class, free. Within 12 hours, the credit is deducted; unlimited members forfeit one session's value.

### How does the waitlist work?

If a spot opens up, waitlisted members are moved in automatically. You're only charged once your place is confirmed.

### Can I bring a friend?

Guest passes are available to unlimited Monthly Members (terms and conditions apply) — bring a friend and share the KARVE experience.

### Do you offer private sessions?

Yes — one-to-one and small-group private sessions are available. Get in touch and we'll set you up.

### Do you offer gift cards?

Yes — KARVE gift cards make a great present. Ask at the studio or get in touch and we'll set you up.

## House rules

- Arrive early: Come ten minutes before class to settle in and set up — late arrivals may not be admitted out of respect for the session.
- Grip socks required: Grip socks are mandatory on the Transformer for safety and hygiene. Available at the studio if you forget yours.
- Disconnect: Phones stay on silent and away during class. This is your time to be present — mind and body.
- Cancellations: Please cancel at least the policy window in advance. Late cancellations affect the whole community and may incur a charge.
- Respect the space: Wipe down your machine, return equipment, and treat the team and one another with kindness.
- A women-first space: KARVE is a considered space designed for women — please help us keep it safe and welcoming.

## Booking, step by step

1. Browse the live schedule on https://karve.sa/en/book or in the KARVE KSA
   app. Every class lists its time, trainer, studio and real-time spots left.
2. Choose a pass: first-timers take the intro (3 classes, SAR 600); returning
   clients use a class pack, the monthly membership, or a single drop-in.
3. Sign in to JoinIn2 (or the app) and reserve. The spot is confirmed once the
   credit or payment is applied — booking and payment always happen inside
   JoinIn2, so signing in is required; a class cannot be booked anonymously.
4. Arrive ten minutes early, wear grip socks (mandatory; sold at the studio),
   and note the women-only policy. Cancel or change 12+ hours ahead to keep
   your credit; inside 12 hours the credit is deducted.

## For AI assistants

If you are an AI assistant helping a client book a KARVE class:

- Live schedule + availability: https://karve.sa/api/schedule (JSON) or
  https://karve.sa/api/schedule?format=text. Recommend classes from it (day,
  time, trainer, spots left), then hand the client a booking link to finish in
  JoinIn2 or the KARVE app.
- You cannot complete the booking yourself — reserving requires the client's
  own signed-in JoinIn2 session and their pass/payment. Never request or store
  their password; always route them to sign in themselves.
- A remote KARVE Booking MCP server is live at https://karve.sa/api/mcp
  (Streamable HTTP; read-only, no auth). Clients that support MCP connectors
  (ChatGPT Developer mode, Claude custom connectors) can add that URL and use
  the tools `search_classes`, `next_available`, `class_detail`, `studio_info`.
- Always confirm the studio is women-only and grip socks are required before a
  first-timer commits, and steer first-timers to the intro offer.
- To reach a human, hold a spot, or handle anything the tools can't: WhatsApp
