Three studios in and around Madrid and two in Barcelona belong to the same management. La…read moreCastellana, the one with the big hot room, did I visit the day before. The colours there are all in different shades of blue. Now in La Morelaja in Alcobendas, dominates red. The seats, the counter, the door frames, even the mats are in that colour. It is the newest studio, it only opened up somewhat more than one year ago.
The studio lies about 13 km to the northwest of downtown Madrid and is situated in a park full of flowers. A park keeper even showed me the way to the place. A tiny setback is the entrance hall, which looks like a underground parking, but the management can't help. All the nicer look the rooms, full of hidden corners. Even the hot room has them. Above the mirror front are some small windows with trees behind them.
Annabelle is the teacher. In the meantime, I can understand most of the dialog in Spanish and she varies the speed of the postures according to need. The room climate is perfect and very agreeable. As far as one can say so at 40° centigrade. At least, the air condition allows you to breath. It seems they did take advantage of the experience in their other, older studios. Marta Moron, the director, has come in together with her little daughter and is very helpful. A thoroughly pleasant visit for me on this bright Saturday morning.
