Boasting with hi-tech equipment, gorgeous architecture, and knowledgeable instructors, luxe fitness centre Babel is the place all you fitness lovers have to check out
Having opened two branches smack dab in the heart of sunny Kuala Lumpur, one in Suria KLCC and another in Menara Ken TTDI, both spaces are magnificent and well-equipped with top-of-the-line Technogym equipment.
The branch in KLCC is located in the shopping mall itself, allowing members easy access to the gym even during their lunch breaks. On the other hand, the branch at TTDI boasts gorgeous views as it sits on the rooftop of Menara Ken.
What heightens the allure of Babel is its eclectic interior design and architecture that adds so much character, completely elevating the place.
Warmly greeting members into the gym, the front-of-house staff are all very friendly and welcoming
You'll feel right at home just as you step into the gym!
If you're looking to hire a personal trainer, you can choose from Babel's selection of certified instructors. Their services are priced according to tier, so go ahead and pick one that suits your budget and needs. Head over to this website to check them out.
There are two workout areas that members can check out: Gym 1 and Gym 2
Gym 1 has a row of treadmills lined up that overlook the TTDI horizon, presenting members with beautiful views as they get a little cardio in. This space also has a padded area for those who want to work on their core. At the same time, Gym 2, located across from the swimming pool, has all the equipment you need for strength training.
There's also a rooftop deck at the TTDI branch where you'll be able to enjoy yoga sessions at dawn and dusk as the sun rises and sets. They even have an array of pool cardio classes that guarantee a good burn sesh.
Babel's gyms are also equipped with a HIIT room, dance studio, as well as a spin studio. Check out their website if you want to have a look at all the classes that are available.
The locker rooms are also decadent, complete with lockers that can only be opened with the same key card used to lock it, allowing for extra layers of security
There's even Infrared Saunas in the locker room if you wanna chill and unwind after a particularly intense workout! However, the pièce de résistance that's got this place abuzz in the beginning is the changing area that is equipped with sleek Dyson hairdryers. (;
Stepping into the shower area, you'll be greeted by the herbal and earthy aroma of Good Virtues Co. and Bad Lab body wash, shampoo, and conditioner, the perfect concoction to wash all that grime and sweat off. The gym has also furnished each shower cubicle with a rainfall shower head for the ultimate relaxing experience.
In terms of its price, memberships cost about RM280 a month, which is a great deal considering the myriad of things you have access to at Babel
Customers can book classes, personal training sessions, manage payments, and even freeze their memberships.
Billy Waters, Chief Operating Officer of The Babel Group, said, "At Babel, we do things a little differently. We understand the demands and constraints of modern life that contribute to us overlooking our personal health.
"We believe supporting members daily lives with state of the art equipment and branded amenities, all in an elegantly curated space really improves the enjoyment and conveniences of working out."
He highlighted that the little things that can make the biggest difference, and by combining these lifestyle elements with personalised, goal-driven training, Babel's members thrive in having a holistic experience that not only fits, but enhances their lifestyle.
