A new Reformer Pilates studio is set to open in Manchester city centre soon, giving Mancs a taste of the workouts loved by celebrities.
Runway Pilates is already well-established over in Alderley Edge and Altrincham, and is now setting its sights on the Northern Quarter.
Reformer Pilates has the ability to boost any movement routine, even a sedentary one.
Not only are Reformer machines easy to use with proper guidance but using spring resistance lengthens and strengthens your body like no other movement modality.

There are more than 500 different exercises you can do in a reformer pilates class too, so you’ll never get bored.

Runway Pilates offers classes for all ages and abilities, from foundation classes to those that pack a powerful punch with a focus on strength.
You can also join a group that focuses on posture, or spend a session concentrating on ‘abs arms and ass’.

The beauty of this style of exercise is that it’s low-impact and gentle on the joints, but can pack in a serious burn and make a real difference to core strength and alignment.
There’s a reason it’s loved by people including Lady Gaga, Kim Kardashian, Cameron Diaz, David Beckham and Madonna – nothing else claims to get you the longest, leanest looking figure in the shortest amount of time.
Catherine Hebb, director of Runway Pilates, said: “I am so excited to be opening our third studio location in Manchester, NQ.

“It’s our biggest studio yet with state of the art facilities and the highest spec Reformer beds. We have a talented and dedicated team who can’t wait to welcome everyone into our new Manchester Runway community.”
The new Northern Quarter Runway Pilates studio is set to open on 5 September at 35 Dale Street, Manchester, M1 2HF.
They are offering VIP memberships to celebrate the launch, which include your chance to create the timetable and 16 classes every month for £189 per month.

A popular Manc streetwear brand is hosting a big festival to mark their fifth birthday
Danny Jones
Popular Manchester streetwear and footwear brand, CLINTS Inc., is hosting its first-ever festival to mark five whole years in fashion – and it’s going to be big.
The highly sought-after clothing and sneaker make started out from a bedroom in Moston and is now a premium label in British urban, skating, UK grime and hip-hop culture, having been worn by many famous names and welcoming even more through the door of their Deansgate shop.
Located in the ABC Buildings on Quay Street next to Spinningfields, the flagship CLINTS store opened back in 2022 and is much more than a place to buy some new drip: it’s a place that showcases art, music, and a whole sub-sect of shopping beyond just skate silhouettes and trendy trainers.
As hack as it might sound to some, wearing this brand comes along with immersing yourself in the wider style and scene; the very same scene being celebrated in tandem with their fifth birthday.
Not to tease you more than the company already has, but as you can see, details are scarce.
There is no lineup or even location for this festival… only a date.
CLINTS Fest (the inaugural one, at that) will take place on Saturday, 6 September – presumably at or around the 21-23 Quay Street site, but who knows?
Fans of the brand can sign up for the mailing list for the latest details, and pre-sale tickets are also available now, with a couple of clicks on the website revealing that the event is set to start at 12 noon and wrap up around 10:30pm.

While you can expect the festival to be packed to the rafters with die-hard followers of all things CLINTS and streetwear, they’re not the only local indie holding a special one-off this month.
In fact, this weekend, a fellow trainer specialist who is still just starting out life in the fashion game but is already making waves reminiscent of their contemporaries.
Here’s hoping this is just the beginning of the journey and they’re the next Manc brand to become a national success story.

This Manchester bar serves a bottomless cheese fondue with endless beer and wine
Georgina Pellant
There’s a bar in Manchester serving a bottomless cheese fondue with endless wine and beer, and it honestly sounds like the perfect treat.
While it might scream cosy winter night in, with a huge outdoor terrace, The Mews is also a firm favourite during the summer months.
Add in a board of melt-in-the-mouth charcuterie, springy pieces of garlic sourdough and a host of crunchy cheese biscuits, and you’ve got yourself the ideal afternoon if you ask us.
But there’s more. Alongside all that cheese and meat and bread, included in the price of The Mews’ bottomless fondue, cheese lovers can also enjoy 90 minutes of non-stop drinks.

Costing £37.50 each, included in the deal is a huge pot of melted Italian Fontina cheese served with homemade garlic croutons, sourdough crackers, and slices of British charcuterie.
You’ll also get to enjoy an hour and a half of endless pints of house pilsner and carafes of red or white wine to enjoy alongside.
Serving up to six people, the bottomless cheese fondue is available only when you pre-book, so make sure to get in touch ahead of your visit to let The Mews know that you’re coming.
If you’re not on the sauce, you can opt for the cheese fondue alone. Without the booze, it’s quite a bit cheaper at £25 for one, and £2.50 on top for any additional people who want to get stuck in.
Housed up on Deansgate Mews, just behind the main hustle and bustle of Deansgate, there’s plenty of space inside as well as a large, secluded terrace that is quite the suntrap (when the Manchester sun is shining).
