Fitness is great fun with Alex!
Alex & Dance
I come from a dance background am a highly qualified Pilates and fitness instructor with experience in several disciplines in the fitness industry.
As well as delivering fitness classes in leisure centres, for many years, I offer small group classes, 1 to 1 personal training, and now online training sessions.
Alex & Fitness
I firmly believe that if you find something fun, that you enjoy, you will keep it up, otherwise keeping fit, instead of being fun becomes a chore.
My dance aerobic and step classes are choreographed in such a way that before you know it, you will be adding twists, turns and armography without even realising it.
Conditioning classes are also delivered in a fun way that you don’t realise you have been working out until the day after or even the day after that!
Results can be achieved with or without the use of small or even large equipment and I offer a wide variety of exercises that include the following : step; barre (or chair!); large gym ball; small soft ball; foam roller; magic circle and hula hoop as well as reformer; aerial hammock and pole.
