Welcome to Feelgood Fitness
My name is Sian and I run Feelgood Fitness, a studio dedicated to women’s health and fitness. I am a highly experienced and qualified personal trainer, Pilates instructor and massage therapist. I believe in a holistic approach to exercise and movement, tailoring to each individual’s needs as we go. With a small team of carefully selected instructors who share my ethos, Feelgood Fitness offers a range of specialist services.
Pilates in Bristol
Pilates has grown in popularity over the past few years. This exercise is low impact, making it effective and enjoyable for women of all abilities and goals. Pilates uses special movements that will increase your core strength, flexibility and help tone those important areas us women like to keep toned. Pilates can also help you if you’re recovering from injuries that stop you from doing other exercises.
Pregnancy and Fitness
Remaining active while pregnant helps your body regulate blood pressure, minimise excessive weight gain, increase your circulation, reduce swelling and cramps, and build a stronger core and pelvic floor in preparation for labour and birth. Pelvic girdle pain and back pain can also be reduced with the right exercise designed just for women.
Postnatal Exercise
Giving birth is tough on your body. This is why you need to slowly return to exercise and gradually rebuild strength in your deep tummy muscles and pelvic floor. After reintroducing exercise designed for postnatal women, we can safely build your overall fitness. Our classes pay special attention to tummy muscle separation, pelvic floor dysfunction, back pain and more.
Massage
We offer a variety of massages including pregnancy massage, postnatal massage, sports massage and other deep forms of massage used in the treatment of general aches, pains and soft tissue injuries. We will even design a massage that focus on your specific needs.
Scar Massage Therapy
Have you a scar that feels tights or restrictive, or do you get pain close to the site? Scar massage therapy from FeelGood Fitness can help reduce your symptoms and improve the appearance of the scar.
Private Fitness Sessions in Bristol
We offer private fitness sessions for women in Bristol. Your session will be designed to reach your goals and ability level. All our sessions are aimed at making you feel better, and our holistic approach uses multidisciplinary skills and programs. We will also work towards your needs as they change to make sure you get the most out of your private sessions.

Feelgood Fitness uses a team of carefully selected instructors to offer group exercise classes to supplement training and fitness goals. As well as a wide variety of classes for adults such as Pilates (both mat and equipment), Low Impact HITT and barre, we also have kids classes.
