At Soul Pilates, we help you feel amazing in your body – not just for today, but for life.
We’re here to guide you towards strength that supports your whole self: body, mind and nervous system.
Whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing stress, or simply craving more connection to your body, our approach is grounded in science, led with compassion, and designed for real life.
We offer more than just classes. We offer a moment to pause, breathe, and come back to yourself. With reformer, equipment and mat Pilates, 1:1 sessions, retreats and small-group workshops, you’ll find support for every chapter of your movement journey.
After a decade, one thing hasn’t changed – we’re still here for the long haul, helping you build a body that feels strong, capable and truly yours.
Our story began when our founder, Nic Lenny, discovered Pilates after a car accident left her with daily back pain.
What she found wasn’t just relief – it was a new way of moving, thinking and living.
That experience shaped the way we teach today: with empathy, with intention, and with a focus on long-term wellbeing.
Now, over 10 years later, Soul Pilates is home to three Bristol studios – in Bishopston, Queen Square and Paintworks – and a growing community of people who want to feel strong, grounded and pain-free in everyday life.
Every teacher at Soul Pilates brings deep expertise and real care – but we also do something many studios don’t: we train the next generation.
Through our teacher training programme, our members benefit from some of the most thoughtful, well-educated instructors in the industry. It keeps our approach fresh, grounded and ever-evolving – and makes our community a place of learning and growth for everyone who walks through our doors.
