We are currently taking Expressions of Interest for studios and memberships. The form will take less that 1 minute to complete. Applications will be requested at a later date.

Studio visits will begin in April with a view to launching this coming June 2025. Please bear in mind that we are building the walls as we speak, so this will be subject to completion.

We’ll inform all participants of studio or membership offers at least two months ahead of launch.

Please be advised that we are very oversubscribed and run a selection process, so sadly cannot offer a studio or membership to everyone who applies🙏 BUT we do have 300 places!

SO register with us today, even if you have previously applied or had a studio with Kindred before.

Everyone who wants to be considered for a space must register below before 31st of March, at noon.

Thank you!
