My Third Space: Where I Go to Sweat, Breathe, and Accidentally Discover My Inner Zen

If you had asked me a few years ago what my third space was, I’d probably have said a café with decent Wi‑Fi and questionable coffee.

But somewhere between back-to-back work calls, life responsibilities, and my body gently reminding me that I’m not 21 anymore, I realised something was missing.

Home is my first space. Work is my second space.

But where do I go to reset?

To move, breathe, think, and work on a future version of myself who doesn’t groan every time he bends down to tie his shoes?

That’s when I stumbled upon My Third Space in Indiranagar, Bangalore (above Coffee Day on 100 FT Road).

And, honestly, calling it just another health and fitness centre would be doing it a massive disservice.

This isn’t a gym. It’s not a studio.

It’s not a place where someone screams “ONE MORE REP!” while you quietly question your life choices.

It’s a space where fitness meets intention, and where aging gracefully is not just a hashtag.

It’s a mindset.

What Exactly Is “My Third Space”?

(Source: Google)

Most of us unknowingly live our lives bouncing between just two zones:

First Space: Home, where comfort reigns supreme, routines get lazy, and motivation mysteriously disappears somewhere between the sofa and the fridge.

Second Space: Work, where calendars are packed, stress is complementary, and posture slowly but surely deteriorates.

And that’s it. No pause button. No reset zone. Just repeat.

My Third Space exists precisely to break that cycle.

It’s neither home nor work, and that’s the whole point.

This is a space where I’m not expected to perform, impress, or be productive in the traditional sense.

Instead, I get to show up for myself.

To move with intention. To breathe properly (which, turns out, is a skill most of us have forgotten).

And to focus on building a body that doesn’t just survive the years ahead, but actually enjoys them.

What I really appreciate is that nothing here feels rushed or mechanical.

You’re encouraged to slow down, tune in, and understand why you’re doing what you’re doing.

The growth you experience isn’t limited to muscles or flexibility. It spills over into everyday life.

You walk out feeling clearer, calmer, and strangely more capable of dealing with whatever waits outside those doors.

In short, My Third Space is where I go to future-proof myself.

Physically, mentally, and honestly, emotionally too.

The Heart Behind My Third Space (Founder’s Note That Hit Home)

(Source: mythirdspace.fit)

Every good space has a story behind it, and this one genuinely stopped me in my tracks.

My Third Space was founded by Shwetambari Shetty, a fitness expert, creator of Dance Fitness Cult, and author of Get Moving.

But titles aside, what truly shapes this space is her lived experience.

Her philosophy comes from watching her mother go from being incredibly healthy to experiencing multiple falls a day.

Not due to illness alone, but due to a gradual loss of strength.

Despite multiple medical consultations, the advice kept coming back to one simple truth: she needs to exercise.

That realization hits hard, because it exposes something most of us conveniently ignore.

We don’t train for old age, we train for aesthetics.

And then we wonder why our bodies struggle later.

Shwetambari’s belief is refreshingly honest. Aging is inevitable, but aging poorly isn’t.

Strength, mobility, balance, and movement are things we can build today for a future version of ourselves who will desperately need them.

And that belief isn’t just framed on a wall here.

It’s embedded into every assessment, every program, and every conversation.

The goal isn’t to push people to exhaustion.

It’s to help them move better, live stronger, and maintain independence as the years roll on.

If there’s one takeaway from her story, it’s this.

Fitness isn’t about looking good for the mirror. It’s about being functional for life.

And at My Third Space, that message comes through loud and clear (without anyone yelling, thankfully). 🙂

What I Loved About Their Approach (Hint: It’s Not Random Workouts)

1. A Truly Comprehensive Start

Before you even lift a finger (or a dumbbell), the journey begins with understanding you.

• One-on-one consultation
• Blood tests
• Body composition analysis
• Fitness assessment
• Personalised nutrition plan

No guesswork. No copy-paste routines. Just a plan that actually makes sense for your body.

2. Group Workouts That Don’t Feel Generic

Whether you’re into slow, mindful movement or high-energy sessions, the group classes are thoughtfully designed:

• Yoga
• Pilates
• Running
• Strength & conditioning

The best part? You’re not lost in a crowd.

You’re seen, guided, and corrected (without judgment).

3. Workshops That Keep Things Exciting

This is where My Third Space really flexes its creativity.

• Dance
• Gymnastics
• Martial arts
• Calisthenics
• Breathwork
• Expert-led sessions

There’s always something new happening, which means boredom doesn’t stand a chance.

4. Personalised Guidance (Because Accountability Matters)

If you’re someone who needs structure, or a gentle nudge, this section will speak to you:

• Personal training
• Couple personal training
• Accountability partner

Sometimes, progress is just about having someone ensure you show up.

5. Kids’ Programs (Yes, They’ve Got That Covered Too)

Fitness isn’t just for adults trying to undo years of sitting.

• Dance for kids
• Gymnastics for kids

It’s refreshing to see a space that encourages movement as a lifestyle, starting young.
