AARMY, the elite performance training method based in NYC and founded by Akin Akman, is expanding its programming to include yoga and Pilates, effective immediately. The new formats are intentional extensions of the AARMY Method, designed to build body awareness, stability, mobility, and confidence that underpins everything AARMY athletes train for.
AARMY’s yoga is power yoga, grounded in strength, mobility, endurance, and control, with a heavy calisthenics influence. Like every practice at AARMY, power yoga is rooted in music and movement, designed to teach new movement patterns in a lower-intensity environment compared to Bootcamp while challenging the body and sharpening the mind. Yoga is available in-studio and on AARMY’s digital platform, bringing the method to athletes everywhere.
Pilates at AARMY builds the precise, foundational strength that feeds directly into Bootcamp performance, developing the body awareness and stability that athletes need to move well under intensity. Pilates is available in-studio now, with a digital rollout to follow.
At AARMY, Bootcamp and Cycle represent the highest-intensity expressions of the method, where strength, conditioning, athleticism, and mental resilience converge. Yoga and Pilates feed directly into that system, teaching the movement patterns and foundational strength that athletes carry into Bootcamp and Cycle, in an environment that’s still challenging but more approachable for those new to AARMY. The result is a clear progression: yoga and Pilates as the entry point, Bootcamp and Cycle as the full expression of the method, and every format speaking the same language of music, movement, and intensity.
“We added yoga and Pilates because they create more accessible entry points into the AARMY methodology. For many people, they feel more approachable than traditional performance training.” – Akin Akman, CEO of AARMY
