Relocating to Baghdad - reformer Pilates and what is there to do?

Hello everyone,

Hope everyone is well!

I am moving to Baghdad with my husband (who is Iraqi) from the UK in a few months and was just wondering whether anyone has come across any reformer Pilates classes or at the very least any nice gyms with swimming pools and classes etc (similar to David Lloyds, Virgin etc)? Are gyms mixed or separate?

We will be living in Arasat. Is this a good neighbourhood? We are both under 30 and childless and would want to spend our evenings out and about, in restaurants, coffee shops etc.

What do most people do on weekends?

Any help would be great.

Thank you in advance!
