I recently completed my reformer training with Alissa at Strength in Pilates. The whole training process was so well thought out and has helped me gain valuable knowledge that I will take with me as I grow as an instructor. Alissa is incredible and shows so much knowledge and passion. I am so grateful to have learnt so much from one of the best and couldn’t recommend Alissa more!!! ❤️
Alissa is a lovely person. She is helping me with my eating habits and to get fitter. She is very knowledgeable, understanding and adaptable with her exercise plans. I started working with Alissa in November and she has really helped my confidence in regards to using different weights & using gym equipment I would definitely recommend her as a Personal Trainer
I can’t explain how much Alissa has helped me with my knee injury and I am so thankful for her. I tore my meniscus a long while back and had a lot of pain and discomfort when doing simple movements or even day to day tasks. I felt so helpless and disappointed as I love my fitness/training and this had a massive impact on this and my life. It was making got feel down and I couldn’t do what I loved doing. I tried physio which helped a bit but it wasn’t enough and I kept coming back to the same problem everytime with pain and discomfort. I nearly gave up hope when Alissa helped me with a rehab plan to regain the strength in my lower body and ease off the pressure on my knee. The plan was so simple and easy to follow and Alissa is very knowledgeable. She was always a text away to help me with anything I needed advice on. I am now so much stronger and have absolutely no pain in my knee and my legs are much stronger so I can train again and get back to what I love doing. It honestly saved me and I can’t thank her enough! Highly recommend! X
Strength In Pilates Training Academy offers 2 pilates disciplines. Each one is suited to different goals — read the breakdown below to see which fits.
Reformer pilates is performed on a specialised piece of equipment using adjustable spring resistance. It targets deeper stabilising muscles than mat-based pilates and is widely used for posture correction, core strength, injury rehabilitation and pre/postnatal training.
Mat pilates uses your bodyweight on a padded mat, often with small props like resistance bands, blocks and pilates balls. It's the most accessible form of pilates — no heavy equipment, lower price points, and easier to continue at home.

Honest, specific answers about this studio.
2 of 3 recent reviews mention the instructors in positive terms — words such as "knowledgeable", "attentive" and "encouraging" recur most frequently. Members citing specific cues, form corrections or named instructors is a strong sign of relationship-led teaching rather than transactional class delivery. If instructor depth matters for your decision (particularly for clinical or prenatal-focused pilates), this is a useful positive signal. One recent member put it this way: "She is very knowledgeable, understanding and adaptable with her exercise plans." — Sharon Cooper.
