Our story

Oren is designed to inspire both movement and connection.

Launching in Cardiff, May 2025, our mission is to create a community-focused space where individuals of all fitness levels can come together to enhance their physical and mental well-being.

At OREN, "community-focused" means building meaningful
relationships - not just through classes but through shared experiences and a welcoming environment that supports every member’s journey. Our progressive approach blends cutting-edge techniques like infrared hot yoga and reformer Pilates with the warmth of a supportive, vibrant community.

Named after the Welsh word for "orange," OREN represents optimism,
joy, and energy. Our goal is to bring these qualities to life within the
studio - a space for those seeking balance, strength, and connection in an ever-busy world.

Whether you’re joining us for Pilates, yoga, barre, or simply to enjoy the luxurious amenities, Oren is more than just a wellness studio - it’s a place to move, connect, and thrive.

Recovery Suite FAQs

  • Yes, recovery sessions must be booked in advance.

  • Yes! Recovery sessions are to be booked separately.

  • For Clearlight infrared sauna sessions, a good starting point is 15–30 minutes, but it's important to listen to your body and adjust based on your comfort and tolerance—especially if you're new to sauna use.

    For ice baths, begin with 1–3 minutes if you’re new to cold exposure, gradually working up to 5–8 minutes as your body adapts. Controlled breathing and a gradual build-up are key to maximising the benefits.

    For our LED red light therapy panel, we recommend 10–20 minutes per session. This is enough to stimulate cellular regeneration and support skin, muscle recovery, and overall wellbeing. Sessions can be done regularly, depending on your personal goals and tolerance.
