I’ve been doing reformer with Ana for about a month now and I’m really loving it. She’s professional, patient and already I’m feeling stronger and more flexible. And it’s good fun too. Would highly recommend to anyone thinking about reformer.

Her expertise and personalised approach have been instrumental in alleviating my back problems. Since starting sessions, I've noticed significant improvements in both my posture and flexibility, which has greatly reduced my discomfort. If you're looking for a professional who truly understands the body and can help you overcome physical challenges, Ana is an excellent choice.

I attended one-to-one sessions after fracturing my ankle and being unable to walk. I am glad I did, as Anastasis assessed me and after a few sessions, I was able to move independently. The personalized program he provided helped my recovery massively, focusing on my specific needs. I highly recommend booking a few sessions with Anastasis if you need to recover from an injury. He is very knowledgeable, professional, and has kept me motivated by regularly following up on my progress. Anastasis gives clear explanations of every exercise, makes constant adjustments, and encourages me to push myself to make progress in every session. This has given me more confidence about my body and what I can do, gradually building strength and flexibility, not only targeting my injured ankle but also contributing to my overall body conditioning. Also, the studio is very comfortable and they offer the nicest tea 🫶

I was recovering from an operation when I started training with Anastasis. I was impressed with the service and now I am a regular for the last 6 months. My fitness and knowledge has improved greatly. His attention to detail is exceptional. Anastasis is not only a professional physical trainer but a lifestyle coach offering regular advice on diet and nutrition, breathing techniques, exercises to do at home.

I would recommend Anastasis to anyone who wants to improve their physical and mental health through exercise

Lower Back Pain

LBP is very common among big parts of the population. The ones we have seen suffering the most are individuals with a sedentary lifestyle (especially if they exercise <x3 per week), and women around pregnancy and menopause.

We find that Reformer Pilates for Lower Back Pain can do wonders especially when combined with some craniosacral therapy and some basic resistance training.

Reformer Pilates for pregnancy sessions are tailored to the individual’s needs, depending on the trimester, energy levels and prior fitness levels.
