The World Out There

Trade the Piercing Gaze for a Peaceful Glow

In a world that constantly watches, judges, and defines — where even a simple workout means navigating unwanted stares — women deserve more. They deserve a space free from the fuss and flurry. A space that's truly theirs.

Marookha Interior

Our Story

A Space Built for Her

Marookha — derived from the Spanish Maruja, a fun, trendy woman of the house — was born from a simple truth: women deserve a space where they can simply be themselves.

Founded in 2021 as the Gentlewoman's Club, Marookha quickly became TTDI's most beloved women-only destination. We built a sanctuary — not a facility — where women can shed societal roles, discover their inner hero, and find restoration.

Hospitality
Freedom
Protection
Empowerment

Zero Male Employees.
Zero Compromise.

Marookha is a 100% women-only space — from the staff to the members. No exceptions, no negotiation. This is your sanctuary, protected and private, exactly as it should be.

Women-Only Access
All-Female Staff
Complete Privacy
Hijab-Free Zone
For Little Ones

Bring Your Little Ones Along

We know — finding time for yourself as a mama isn't easy. That's why we created a dedicated, beautifully designed kids' corner where your little ones can play, create, and explore while you train, relax, or catch up with friends.

Hand-painted murals, wooden toys, a play kitchen, and rocking horses — it's a world of imagination, right next to yours.

July Theme: JOY

Rediscover Simple Joy

Joy doesn't always come from grand moments. Sometimes, it's found in moving your body, sharing a laugh with new friends, and allowing yourself to slow down without feeling guilty.

As part of our July theme, JOY, we're inviting you to an afternoon dedicated to rediscovering simple, sustainable joy.

We'll begin with a light-hearted icebreaker before easing into a gentle movement flow suitable for all fitness levels. Afterwards, we'll gather around a table of delicious light bites, where conversation flows as freely as the food.

Together, we'll explore what joy looks like in adulthood, why we often struggle to prioritise it, and how small moments of movement, community, and rest can positively shape our overall wellbeing.

No fitness experience is required — just come as you are. #GirlsJustWannaFlow
