A popular yoga studio in Singapore will shutter for good after its final outlet closes next year.
The last day of operations of its studio at Valley Point Shopping Centre is March 21, 2027.
The announcement comes following redevelopment plans for the mall in River Valley, Hom Yoga said in a social media post on Saturday (Oct 17).
“Following news of Valley Point’s upcoming redevelopment, we explored many alternatives to start again,” the yoga studio wrote.
“However, between rising costs and the tight timeline, we have chosen to wrap up our journey with intention, care, and transparency.”
In a FAQ posted on the same day, Hom Yoga said that customers with existing class packages or memberships can continue to practise with the studio until its last day.
Those who wish to end their membership earlier, however, should provide notice over e-mail seven days before their next billing cycle.
As for whether Hom Yoga might reopen in future, the studio expressed uncertainty, saying that they wish to focus on the remaining time they have with customers.
“Let’s breathe, practise, and cherish our remaining time on the mat together,” they wrote.

On Sept 30, Frasers Property and Mitsubishi Estate announced the redevelopment of the River Valley mall into a 999-year mixed-use development.
In July, Hom Yoga said they would close their outlet at Orchard Central on Nov 15, after nearly 14 years of operations there.
They had intended to intensify operations in their River Valley outlet ahead of the Orchard Central studio closure.
The exit of Hom Yoga comes hot on the heels of the abrupt closure of Yoga Inc. on Sept 18, which left over 30 yoga instructors with wages owed and customers unable to get refunds.
In September, True Fitness and True Yoga also shuttered all of its outlets across Singapore due to financial losses.
