Yoga Centers at Kuchai Entrepreneur Park

So tired today as busy walking thru the whole Kuchai Enterpreneur Park looking for One Yoga as told by cutiecate that few of YZ's teachers will be teaching there. However, quite disappointed with the service and unable to have a visit of the whole outlet. I spent almost an hour walking the whole Kuchai Enterpreneur Park to find this studio but only spent 2-3 minutes there for little information. The frontdesk not really informative and helpful compared to the Yoga Zone's cheerful frontdesk whom always with smiling faces and helpful all the time.

Anyway, I just continue to look for others as there are few yoga studios around that area and found another yoga studio located at the same row of shop called Yoga Lounge which the owner (Ms. Mavis) very nice and patient in explaining to me.

Okay, just to share what information I have gathered today.

  • Studio : 3 studios. Mat is not provided, so have to bring own mats.
    ^ One yoga studio with warm colour painting and mirror which can cater for 15 students. This studio quite comfortable and feel warm.
    ^ One Pilate studio which also used for advance yoga students as this studio has no mirror. It also can cater for 15 students. No idea about the third studio.
  • Environment: Just nice and comfortable as a small size yoga center but of course can't compare it with Yoga Zone. There have massage services as well (RM60 per hour).
  • Parking: There are ample of parking lots in front the shoplots but not sure whether it is full during the working days.
  • Classes : Mainly Yoga and there is a Pilates class once a week on Mon. Jess from Yoga Zone is teaching here.
    ^ Weekdays – 2 morning classes from 7:45am to 11:00am and 2 to 3 evening classes from 5:45pm to 8:30pm.
    ^ Weekend – Sat has 3 classes while Sun has only 1 class.
  • Price : No Registration Fee

dear yoga lover,

so sorry i din furnish u the full info and caused u searching One Yoga so difficult... :(

i agree with u regarding their frontdesk attitude. the way she spoke to "potential customers" are rude and direct. i thot of wan to call up Sophia to complain bout her, but at last i jz forget bout it. i remember i ask her few questions, one of the question was is there a no. of YZ students has joined there and are they many, she jz replied me "this thing i cannot tell" :S and during the studio visit, we could only peeping from the door window as there were classes on. so i discussed something with my fren there, then the frontdesk gal said "can u two discuss at downstair later?" and she showed us an impatient and annoying face. a very bad impression to us...

we visited Yoga Lounge too. in front of the main door they've written some rules and regulation. i remember there have written that they close on public holiday, and if the class with 2 or less than 2 students for the day they will cancel the class. not that good rite? if we purposely travel there to attend the class but less than the no. of student requirement then we just go home like tat?!

FYI, kuchai areas are pack of cars especially during working hrs. but if we go after work the car park is not difficult to find, so no need to worry too much.

Regarding One Yoga package, not sure whether the frontdesk gal has told u, if u buy "You Card" (a discount card for quite a no. of merchants) for RM9.90, u'll entitle to attend 2 trial classes. if u use this card to sign up their 3 mths package u'll get 10% discount; if sign up 6 mths package can get 15% discount. i found out this from Sophia. they have couple package which the price will be slightly cheaper.

not sure wat is the outcome from the meeting. hoping for the best to come!

Hi cutiecate,

No need to say sorry. In fact you have provided useful information. It was because I'm not familiar with the area of Kuchai Entrepreneur Park.

I encountered the same treatment as you from the One Yoga's frontdesk girl. I didn't know the "You Card" and other promotions as she only gave me a copy of schedule which stated the current package price (in hand written) without any further explanation. I dare not ask furtehr as she shown reluctant to entertain me... This is the worst attitude in servicing industry but remind me the cheerful and helpful frontdesks and sales consulatants of Yoga Zone.

Heard that the meeting yesterday more relevant to the teachers and staffs' outstanding salaries, epf, socso & income tax matters. I think the receiver needs some more time to spring clean the mess which accumulated since 2006/07, not an easy job oh... So, lets wait for their next meeting on 2nd Sep.

Hi Anonymous (20 Sep @ 12:46pm),

Upcoming soon...

One Yoga will be shifted to Bkt Jalil new built shop/offcies around mid of Nov. Just visited their studio at Kuchai Entrepreneur Park today and also went to view their new shop/offices at Bkt Jalil but unable to go in as the road there is still under construction. Will post the detail later once I have compiled it.

Heard that Gilbert will also open a new studio at this same place but at different block. If not mistaken, his new studio named "Ojas Yoga" and planned to open in Oct subject to the completion of the renovation work.

Will try to update more details once I got the information.
