Workout app Alo Moves is now in VR on Meta Quest 3

One of our favorite workout apps for yoga and pilates, Alo Moves, is coming to VR on the Meta Quest 3. Alo Moves enable immersion.

The app uses a volumetric 3D technique to capture lessons from all angles, so “users can interact with their 3D instructors, reposition them and view every angle for a full 360-degree perspective, helping perfect of form and movement techniques,” the company wrote. At the same time, you can choose from various picturesque locations in Spain, Norway and Thailand, among others. More practically, the app uses space mapping and object detection of your own physical space to ensure you don’t bump into anything.

Alo Moves The app promises a structured release schedule with four to five new mixed-reality yoga and pilates classes every month, along with weekly meditation and sound bath sessions. It also offers things like class history tracking, post-class feedback, and milestone badges.

Later this year, Alo Moves will introduce new instructors and expand offerings to include 20+ minute yoga sessions, quick toning/sculpting classes, yoga basics, evening stretching, breathwork and more.

The company promises an experience “that feels as personal as possible,” according to the press release. It seems like a smart way to use virtual reality (or extended reality as Meta prefers to call it), especially since it allows you to study an instructor’s technique from all angles. That would make it a lot better than other Meta fitness apps like Oh Shape and Les Mills Bodycombat.
