Soul Balance Pilates

Aleks is excellent at communicating her understanding of individual needs and concerns. She adapts each session on the reformer to suit those various needs and I always leave each appointment feeling confident and relaxed. If you are new to working on the reformer, she is careful to plan a programme which gives you that confidence and also helps you to make progress with your skills. Aleks was recommended to me when I was recovering from a broken pelvis and the discovery that I had osteoporosis. My consultant thought Pilates would be very good to help with my recovery. Thanks to Aleks, this has proved to be excellent advice.

I saw Aleks for weekly 1:1 reformer sessions for two months and she has been instrumental in helping me rebuild my confidence with exercise and feel more connected to my body again. Her approach is very mindful and whole-body focused, unlike any way I had exercised before. She explains everything clearly and has taught me invaluable skills around how to properly hold and support my body, which I know will continue to benefit me in everyday life. She is also incredibly warm and welcoming, and her knowledge of hypermobility meant she was able to tailor the exercises to support my joints while helping me build strength for long-term stability. I’m very grateful to have found her.

Been doing Pilates and other strength training for several years and wanted to move it up a bit, as a ‘whole body’ health, fitness and well being regime. Aleks is an amazing Reformer Pilates instructor, looking at me as a whole and tailoring a regime for my body and stage in life. She is focussed on absolutely correct form and function, but is a lovely warm and welcoming person who makes a good workout an absolute pleasure
