Sian is a very good teacher. Very experienced and knowledgeable. I recommend her to anyone.
Pilates with Sian at FeelGood Fitness is fab! Classes are always fun and have a really friendly vibe. Sian takes real care to make sure your technique is right and the sessions are challenging, but she also has a real knack of recognising when you're having one of those days when simply moving your body is an achievement! On a practical note, the studio is spotlessly clean with great equipment, booking is straightforward and parking is dead easy
I love going to classes at Feelgood Fitness. It is an inclusive studio, everyone is welcome whether you are super fit or super not! Classes are relaxed, fun and all the instructors know their stuff.
I have been a member of Feel Good Fitness online membership for over a year. I do her Pilates and Low Impact Hiit classes. I really enjoy Sian's relaxed yet energized teaching style. You can feel her passion for what she does and her expertise is evident in every class. What sets her apart is her ability to tailor each move to the needs of every participant. No matter your fitness level or if you have any pre-existing injuries, you'll receive personalized attention and modifications that make the practice accessible to all. So if you're having doubts that you are not fit enough or strong enough to take part, ignore them! Through Sian’s encouragement you will surprise yourself and find you are stronger than you thought! I always feel better after one of her classes. I can’t wait to visit in person one day and experience more of what the studio offers.
If it weren't for Sian my Mum would not be walking anymore. She has kept her mobile beyond the doctors predictions
I’ve been going to FeelGood Fitness for 2 years now and I love it. The studio is beautiful and the classes are brilliant!
Fantastic studio and lovely people. Sian knows her stuff and demonstrates easily
Sian is a brilliant teacher, supporting me following a back injury and I couldn't be more grateful. Her classes are fun and inclusive, couldn't recommend more!
Loved it there! I took classes with Sarah (working out on the mats) and Sian with who I mostly did sessions on the pilates equipment. Both were just amazing! Sarah will introduce you to exercise at a slower pace with deep impact, while Sian challenges you on strength and takes on a holistic approach. I didn’t have any previous experience with pilates, but that wasn’t an issue at all. It’s very friendly atmosphere and a nice, cozy space.
FeelGood fitness is exactly that - I have gone to Sian's sessions over some years and every time we have a laugh and I leave knowing I've done a decent work out! She's great at adapting moves if you've got an injury/ongoing issue which needs to be managed, and she's incredibly knowledgeable. We're all really friendly with each other and it's just lovely. Couldn't recommend FGF enough!
Sian is incredibly knowledgeable and welcoming and frequently goes above and beyond to accommodate her clients needs, as do the other instructors. I always feel so much better after Pilates with Lydia and Circuits with June is challenging but a lot of fun. I can’t recommend Feelgood Fitness enough.
I’ve been attending Pilates classes with Sian for a number of years. She is extremely friendly and supportive, and knowledgeable not just about Pilates but also general health and fitness. Sian and her team are all very welcoming and the classes always have a good atmosphere, with a mix of ages and genders. They are always happy to make accommodations for any injuries or physical limitations and provide advice to support recovery. My strength and flexibility have improved enormously through regular Pilates practice and I’d recommend Feelgood Fitness to anyone who wants to improve their health while having fun and building confidence.
I highly recommend pilates and low impact HIIT classes. I didn't feel confident going back to the gym after my pregnancy so I decided to try pilates with FeelGood Fitness instead. Sian was very motivating and her classes really helped me getting stronger and getting a better understanding of how my body works 💪 June's HIIT classes are fun and you can make them your own, she always offer alternatives depending on your body's capabilities which is great post pregnancy. I am now doing Lydia's pilates classes and they are amazing. She's very gentle but makes you work hard at the same time so you're feeling both relaxed and stronger at the end. Thank you ladies 😊
Sian’s classes are fun and as challenging as you want them to be. Her knowledge of the body is fantastic, and she always has personalised tips to work around injuries or to adjust for bad habits. I’ve also had private lessons with Sian to work on rehabilitation and specific areas of weakness, and I always get lots out these sessions.
Sian is terrific, I’ve been training with her for nearly 3 years and she’s improved my physical health, strength and well-being. She brightens my Monday morning and it’s the best way to start the week!
Sian is so knowledgeable and always committed to learning more. She helped me recover after my c-section because she understands that exercise programmes need to be realistic and fit in with your daily life. She offers advice and support above and beyond what you would expect and is the only person who has ever made me stick at exercise!
I really love Sian's classes. She is very knowledgeable and can tailor the exercises to suit you.
I sought Sian's help for a sore/tight back and neck. The sports massage helped tremendously, highly recommend!
Sian is fantastic. I have been attending her Pilates and HIIT classes for 5 years now, the only exercise I have ever enjoyed and stuck to! I also recently had my first baby. Sian adapted exercises for me, explained what my body was going through and answered any questions I had - she helped me so much I was able to exercise upto week 38! Keeping active all the way through helped me have a smooth labour, delivery and recovery! I'd recommend her to anyone!
Sian has supported my return to fitness since I had my son nearly 4 years ago. Starting out with post-natal Pilates, I now attend low-impact HIIT classes. Sian’s classes are fun, friendly and different each week (and a great workout!). Highly recommended!
I started never having done pilates before. I was a bit anxious to start with - I’m not flexible, I couldn’t get to grips with trying yoga, and was more used to running and strength/weights exercises prior to pregnancy. However, Sian made me feel welcome into the class. She’s adapted workouts in both Pilates and low impact HIIT to suit my varying stages of pregnancy yet still making me feel very well much included. I leave the classes feeling refreshed, and feel it is helping me minimise the common pregnancy aches and pains so far 🤞🏼 Thanks Sian
So much knowledge in one so small! Sian has a depth and breadth of knowledge to help almost anyone's health and fitness. She is also a rather pleasant person be around, who listens with empathy and personal experience.
Sian is incredible. She is extremely knowledgable and always knows what to do when I injure myself. She is attentive and ensure alignment and movements are correct to avoid any further injury and to make sure exercises will be beneficial. Her massages are great, playing on the reformers is fun, and her online pilates classes are a great workout without working up a sweat! I recommend all of my clients go and see Sian if they ever have a niggle that needs attention or if they are in need of a good massage to release tension.
I've been with Sian for over 3 years now, doing pre natal, and post natal doing pilates. Her advice and knowledge is excellent I've understood what I'm doing and why, and got to know my body better. She is professional, friendly and supportive - you get more than just an instructor in a studio. Sian's holistic and caring approach genuinly helps you to get motivated when you might not be feeling at your best and makes you feel valued as an individual with support based around any injuries or difficulties you may be having. Highly recommend feel good fitness 👌
Sian at Feelggod Fitnesses is extremely knowledgeable, and skilful. She balances her expertise with pragmatism, so that the services she offers are absolutely tailored to you and what you need. I have nothing but good experience of what she does, and have no hesitation in recommend OMG her to friends and colleagues
Now more than ever looking after ones health so important. Despite the challenges of this year, maintaining routine, fantastic variety of classes, offering support, incredible knowledge and expertise; have all been just the tip of the iceberg that Sian provides. All delivered with an incredible balance of professionalism, kindness and humour. Sian is truly phenomenal!
Sian is a fantastic pilates instructer. Super knowledgeable and a laugh. The studio is a lovely space to be in, but throughout lockdown she has kept us all going through Zoom.
I can't recommend Sian enough. She really knows her stuff. I initially started classes due to a bad back and saw massive improvements after attending classes regularly. Sian has supported me through two pregnancy's and has provided me with more detailed information regarding pelvic floor and rehab than I have received from other health professionals. She has taken information provided by physios and translated it into exercises I can incorporate into my daily routine with a toddler. Sian's knowledge is outstanding. Simple stretches I have been doing for years feel completely different flowing a few simple cues from Sian to get a better stretch. She is always trying to update her knowledge so you feel confident that she is providing you with the most up to date information.
Highly recommended for Pilates, sorts and relaxing massage and low impact hiit classes. I’ve been going to Sian’s fantastic studio and zoom classes for the past 2 years and it’s been brilliant. Sian has helped with a number of ailments including plantar fasciitis and very tight shoulders and calves. I’ve got stronger from attending Pilates and have improved my range of movement. Sian is a brilliant teacher and I really enjoy our sessions. Group classes are hard work but always enjoyable thanks to a lovely bunch of people all working out together in a friendly environment.
I would highly recommend Sian's classes. She is an expert on women's health and has supported my fitness through pregnancy and my postnatal recovery. She is able to adapt any exercises when needed. Classes are varied, fun and always challenging enough without being overwhelming. The studio has a lovely community feel to it.
Sian has been absolutely amazing getting me back into shape post pregnancy. She also trained me through my pregnancy which made a massive difference to my recovery. She make you feel so relaxed and every session is worth every second
Sian is by far the best Pilates Instructor/Personal Trainer I have known. Her knowledge and teaching style is second to none. Her patients is commendable, and she is a beautiful, warming human being. One inspirational lady.
I've had such a great experience here. After developing a pain condition and then undergoing surgery I had stopped exercise and gained lots of weight. Sian has used her wealth of knowledge and skills to help me feel more confident in the way I train and make good progress. I highly recommend her and her fantastic studio.
Sian has a wealth of experience and knowledge to add to her already very enjoyable mat Pilates classes in Knowle. I always come back from them feeling less stressed, more mobile and recharged.
I’ve always made and excuse for not doing exercise but Sian has changed that for me. Classes are different each week which keeps it interesting. I look forward to going each week and will be doing more classes as I can. Highly recommend.
Sian has helped me get back into exercising after an injury, which left me too scared to workout. She’s really knowledgeable on women’s health and wish I’d found her post pregnancy to put my body back together
Simply a brilliant teacher for those of us with bodies that are not quite so prefect as we would like them to be. Sian’s knowledge of the body and way it all joins together is unexpectedly extensive, she can always give alternative excercises to anyone who can’t do the class excercises. Eyes like a hawk to make sure you don’t do anything wrong, she brings humour to the classes which are always enjoyable. I’ve been doing Pilates for about 10 years but the amount I have learned in the last two from Sian exceeds by far the previous 8. I now understand how my body works, taking into account the injuries I carry and what I can do to keep fit and flexible going forwards.
Friendly, informative and thorough antenatal and postnatal classes. Sian really knows what she’s talking about, so I always feel comfortable doing the exercises she recommends. She somehow manages to keep track of everyone’s needs and different stages of ability - there’s no questioning each participants confidence in her knowledge and expertise!
Top class personal training. Every session is completely personalised to suit my mood and physical state. Didn't know rehab could be such fun!
