Private gym vs. regular gym: what's the difference?
No crowds, no contract, no waiting for equipment. What changes when the whole studio is yours for 90 minutes.
A regular gym sells you access to a shared room. A private gym sells you the room itself. At SHIO that's exactly the deal: you book a 90-minute slot and the whole studio is yours. Here's what that changes.
The space is yours alone
No members working in around you, no one waiting for "just one more set", no audience. Each slot is a single booking — you decide who else is in the room.
No membership, no contract
You buy credits and pay per session. No monthly fee, no minimum term, no automatic renewal. If life gets busy, you're not paying for a gym you never visit.
No waiting for equipment
Everything in the studio is free when you need it, for your whole session. Your rest times are yours to choose, not dictated by the queue.
Total privacy
Try a new lift, film your form, train in silence or work with a partner — no one is watching.
Premium equipment throughout
The studio is fitted out almost entirely with Rogue — from the FM-6 functional trainer to kettlebells up to 56 kg. Here's everything in the studio.
Fully digital access
Sign up online, book in the webapp and unlock the door from your phone when your slot begins. No front desk, no key card, no staff to coordinate with.
Built for experienced lifters
SHIO is for people who know what they're doing — which also means a calm, focused room. (It also means it's not the place to learn the basics.)
Hygiene you can rely on
Only one booking uses the room per slot, and everyone leaves it clean. Compare that to a bench hundreds of strangers sweat on every day.
Fair cancellation
Cancel up to 48 hours before your session and the credit goes straight back to your account.
Train with a partner on your terms
Bring a training partner or a spotter — up to three people per session, you included.
