For your comfort and privacy



Dear Lotte Ladies,
Please ensure that you arrive at the studio with enough time to change before the class start time.  

Ladies WILL NOT be allowed to enter after the class begins for the following reasons:
1
All students of the Lotte Berk Technique must take part in the warm-up exercises at the beginning of the class, failure to do so could result in an injury

2
 Latecomers cause disruption to other class members 
Continuous opening and closing of the door compromises ladies' privacy and comfort

Thank you. Your co-operation is much appreciated

Are you a Lotte Lady?

'Lotte Ladies' who attend the Lotte Berk Technique classes at Bend Stretch Fitness, Al Ain, are women who value exclusivity and a personal touch in their fitness regime. 

Class sizes are now a maximum of 6 students an hour - thus ensuring that precise and unparalleled attention is paid to their technique in class, fitness goals and form when practicing the method. 

Students improve rapidly and appreciate the privacy which comes with the 'boutique' atmosphere created by small and elite class groups.

After all, the Lotte Lady knows that she is one of only a small number of ladies who are privy to this unique and exceptional technique..............................

Bend Stretch Fitness is the only Boutique Lotte Berk Studio in the Middle East - only in Al Ain, UAE.

More Lotte facts!

Lotte classes hold the secret to slimming your body and keeping you young! 

 One effect of the Lotte technique is the production of a large amount of lactic acid.  The body requires more calories in order to absorb this by-product so there is a longer calorie burn after class.  When the body absorbs this lactic acid, muscles become stronger and leaner which increases your metabolism long-term leading to weight loss.  You get better at the exercises and you are able to work harder in class because this lactic acid has strengthened your muscles and increased your stamina.  This means that, over time, you are able to burn more and more calories in and out of class.   The creation of lactic acid forces the body to generate human growth hormone which is known as the body’s natural anti-aging product – this ensures a constant high metabolism and prevents your body from aging.

Lotte is superior to other exercise!
The exercises undertaken in Lotte classes consistently work the largest muscles in the body (the glutes and thighs).  It is their consistent use that means the heart rate is kept high and so copious calories are burnt (therefore burning fat) but without impacting adversely on your joints.  

When running, between 1.5 and 5 times your body weight is sent onto your joints with every step you take –  it is no surprise that most runners suffer commonly from knee, back, hips, leg and endure regular and painful tendon and ligament tears because of this long-term abuse on their bodies.  If all this hasn’t put you off running and aerobics yet…….these type of classes PREMATURELY AGE YOU.  All that running and jumping, high-impact and repetitious movements lead to sagging skin on both your face and body.  So if you really want to lose inches and shrink your body – you know where to come……………

People sometimes mistake Lotte classes for Pilates but Pilates classes traditionally work smaller muscles and therefore are less efficient fat burners.  Equally, traditional gym based weight training is inferior to the Lotte Berk Technique as the body works single or small groups of muscle only (often creating 'bulked up' muscles).   Exercises in the Lotte Berk Technique, however, force several muscles in different groups to work hard at the same time, maximising calorie burn and lengthening the muscles.

You can do Lotte when you’re pregnant!!
If you are a regular student of Lotte and you become pregnant, you can continue training throughout pregnancy and simply 'bounce back' into shape after giving birth! (Note new students to Lotte will not be allowed to practice during their pregnancy)
