SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 27 April 2026 – Breathe Pilates is relocating its Novena studio to a larger flagship space at United Square, #21-05/06, opening 29 April 2026.

Breathe Pilates United Square Flagship Outlet

A Purpose-Built Space for a More Focused Experience

The new United Square location marks a step up from the studio’s previous Novena premises. Where operations were previously spread across three separate units in Novena Medical Centre, the flagship studio now consolidates everything under one roof; three dedicated rooms within a single space, designed to support the flow of group classes and private sessions side by side. For clients, this means a more coherent, less fragmented experience.

The studio offers a full range of classes, including Foundations, Prenatal and Postnatal Pilates, Reformer and Tower levels one through three, Fat Blast, Stretch Pilates, Chair and Reformer, and private pilates with additional equipment such as the Cadillac and Barrels for those who prefer to train with a select group.

In keeping with the studio’s standards of personalised instruction, all classes are capped at six participants to ensure every client receives focused, instructor-led guidance throughout.

Clinical Standards at the Core

Breathe Pilates has distinguished itself within Singapore’s wellness landscape through its clinical approach to movement. As a MERRITHEW® Licensed Training Centre, its instructors undergo rigorous STOTT PILATES® certification, including theory study, programme submission, mock examinations, and a final assessment.

The team also includes instructors with formal rehabilitation training, several of whom are practising physiotherapists; expertise that directly shapes their Clinical Pilates offering. They offer sessions that support recovery from injury, help manage chronic pain, address postural issues, spinal alignment, and provide Pilates for scoliosis through evidence-based, individually tailored programming.

With five studios offering over 100 weekly classes across Singapore: United Square, Katong Point, Raffles Quay, The Heeren, and Galaxis, Breathe Pilates extends accessible, quality-led Pilates training across the island.

Motorist study: Singapore used car buyers are doing more research than ever before, but trust still falls short

  • Singapore car buyers still lack confidence due to unclear pricing and inconsistent information, even after weeks of research.
  • Consumers spend up to four weeks researching before visiting a dealership, yet gaps in consumer trust persist.
  • Buyers are up to 3 times more likely to return to the same dealership when pricing is clearly itemised.
  • Trust is becoming a stronger decision driver than price when comparing similar vehicles.
SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 28 April 2026 – More than half of Singapore used car buyers compare multiple options before making a purchase, yet many still experience uncertainty due to unclear pricing and inconsistent information across the market.
Navigating the Market: The Motorist SmartBuy Guide 2026 provides Singaporean car buyers with data-driven insights and a clear path toward transparent vehicle purchases.

This tension between effort and confidence is a key finding from the Motorist SmartBuy Guide 2026, based on insights from over 5,000 respondents, pointing to a growing gap between how informed buyers are and how much they trust the process.

More effort, same uncertainty
Consumers today are spending significantly more time researching before committing. On average, buyers take between two to four weeks to evaluate listings, compare options, and review information online before visiting a dealership.
Yet, despite this increased effort, confidence remains uneven. Many respondents cited persistent concerns around hidden fees, unclear valuation methods, and inconsistent inspection standards and issues that continue to undermine trust at the point of decision.
Transparency emerging as the deciding factor
The study found that transparency – particularly in pricing, vehicle condition, and trade-in valuations – is now a key driver of consumer confidence.
Buyers who received clear, itemised pricing breakdowns were up to three times more likely to return to the same dealer, underscoring how trust directly influences long-term customer relationships.
While price remains important, factors such as warranty clarity, after-sales support, and dealer credibility are increasingly shaping final decisions, particularly when comparing similar vehicles.
Persistent risks continue to shape buyer behaviour
The findings reflect ongoing challenges in Singapore’s used car market, where buyers continue to encounter issues such as:
– Hidden or unexpected charges
– Disputes over warranty coverage
– Lack of clarity in transaction processes
These risks reinforce the importance of due diligence and consistent standards across the industry.
Industry context: strengthening consumer protection
The findings come amid broader efforts to improve transparency and accountability within the sector.
The Consumers Association of Singapore (CASE) has consistently encouraged buyers to transact with accredited dealers that adopt clear contractual practices and provide additional consumer safeguards.

“Consumers are encouraged to look out for CaseTrust-accredited motoring businesses when making a purchase,” said Mr Melvin Yong, president of CASE. “These accredited dealers are required to adopt clear agreements and maintain safeguards that provide an added layer of protection for consumers.”

A market at an inflection point

The findings suggest that Singapore’s used car market is entering a more mature phase – where informed, cautious buyers expect greater transparency, consistency, and accountability.

As expectations continue to rise, the ability to provide clear information and build trust will increasingly define both consumer confidence and long-term competitiveness in the market.

World’s Only Sulfuric Fire Fishing Method: Come Witness a Maritime Marvel

NEW TAIPEI CITY, TAIWAN – Media OutReach Newswire – 28 April 2026 – As the “bong sound bursts out, the firelight pierces the night and illuminates the sea surface off Jinshan. The spectacular sight of blue-scale fish leaping from the water unfolds every summer and autumn in Northern Taiwan. The 2026 Jinshan Sulfuric Fire Fishing land-and-sea tours will take place from May 9 to September 27. Be sure to seize the opportunity during this limited five-month annual window to experience the unique charm of the world’s only sulfuric fire fishing method.

“Bong-hué-á” (Sulfuric Fire Fishing) is a traditional fishing method passed down in Taiwan for a century. It uses sulfuric fire to attract fish and is named after the “bong” sound produced during ignition. With promotion by the North Coast and Guanyinshan National Scenic Area Administration and local teams, it has gradually transformed into a featured experience with both cultural and tourism value, making its way onto the international stage.

The land-based tours include the popular “Fire Captain’s Lighting Experience,” allowing the participants to feel the immersive shock of holding a torch in a safe environment. Additionally, it combines guided tours of the Huanggang Fishing Village, readings of the Fish Road Historic Trail, and drying fish experiences to showcase the history and living culture of the village.

After boarding the boat in the evening, visitors can taste fresh squid rice noodles. At night, a maritime ecological experience begins, offering views of the Twin Candlestick Islets from afar and engaging in sea fishing. When the sulfuric fire is ignited and the light reflects on the sea, lucky visitors can witness the precious sight of fish leaping out of the water and taste freshly caught fish.

Every sulfuric fire journey is a precious gift presented by nature and cultural history. The North Coast possesses world-class landscapes such as the world’s only sulfuric fire fishing method, the Jinshan and Wanli hot springs, and Yehliu Geopark. Domestic and international travelers are welcome to the North Coast to enjoy sustainable travel.
