”Have faith, put your dream in the Universe and manifest it!
Faramarz (1950-2023)Founder of Om Factory New York (since 2006)
Menico and Nico Tan didn’t grow up as fitness enthusiasts. In fact, it wasn’t until their late twenties that they stumbled upon Hatha Yoga—and everything changed.
In 2015, their world flipped (literally) when they discovered Aerial Yoga. What started as a fun way to explore movement soon turned into a full-blown obsession with Aerial Fitness. But there was one big problem: resources were scarce in their local community.
Instead of letting that stop them, the sisters got creative. They pieced together knowledge from anywhere they could find it, determined to make Aerial Fitness more than just a niche performance art. Their mission? To make it accessible, fun, and empowering for everyone.
In 2017, fate stepped in. They met Faramarz, the visionary founder of OM Factory School of Yoga in New York. His advice? “Have faith, put your dreams into the Universe, and manifest them!” Inspired, the sisters launched Om Factory Malaysia in 2018.
It wasn’t just a studio—it was a movement. Om Factory Malaysia became the region’s first and only one-stop Aerial Fitness Teacher Training hub, offering cutting-edge programs and group classes that welcomed all levels.
Fast forward to 2025, and the journey keeps evolving. Om Factory Malaysia joined forces with NoMad Om Factory Taipei, blending two powerhouse brands into one seamless vision. Together, they’re raising the bar in the aerial and yoga industries, delivering world-class training and building a global community of movers, dreamers, and innovators.
Today, Om Factory Malaysia isn’t just a studio; it’s a family. With sister studios worldwide, they continue to inspire, connect, and empower people to take flight—both on and off the mat.
