ANDREIA SOUZA PILATES
Welcome to my website. Hope you find here what your are looking for.
For the last 15 year I have been working with movements, exercises and teaching. From school PE lessons to swimming and gym instructor, I have recently dived into the Pilates world. As a qualified Polestar Pilates Instructor my aim is to help you to be healthier and happier in your body and mind.
There are many ways to achieve this, and you may need to find what works for you. I am here to help you connect your mind with your body in a beautiful relationship through our mindful Pilates sessions. During these sessions, we focus on our breathing throughout the exercises and bring awareness to each movement. We also work on promoting strength, mobility, and flexibility, particularly in our spine (spine articulation is key, did you know?).
Together, in our sessions, we aim to achieve a pain-free, healthier, and happier body, leading to a happier life.
Come and try out my group mat classes or private classes, available in both English and Portuguese.
CLIENTS TESTIMONIALS
" I started Andreia's pilates classes 6 weeks ago as a complete beginner. I was very nervous as I was conscious of being overweight, unfit and suffering with arthritic knees. I try to follow the saying if "feel the fear and do it anyway" so i very nervously went.
I'm so glad i did! I feel great physically and mentally.
I've always loved to dance since i was a child and was a pretty good dancer if i say so myself. For years I've been unable to and sadly just became a seated spectator at social events due to arthritis and my muscles quickly becoming sore if i did dance. It genuinely upset me.
Well...week 5 of pilates i went out dancing with friends and absolutely shocked myself from dancing non stop all night with zero pain!! I had the best night.
Andreia's makes the classes calming, challenging and she is very encouraging.
There is a mental calmness i feel for days after class"
T.P. 52 yo - Grove Park Class
"Pilates with Andreia has been excellent. After many years of doing pilates in central London, I was thrilled to discover this local option when I switched to a work-from-home role. Andreia tailors the sessions to the capabilities of students, offering alternatives when a certain pose is too challenging or injury-aggravating. I can't recommend her enough"
R.P., 43 yo - Catford Class
"I recently joined Andreia's pilates class. Andreia's class is suitable for beginners and more advanced. She gives very clear and easy to follow instructions and it helped me with my usual stiff shoulder and neck muscles and general fitness. I think that the class is also very suited to anyone recovering from illness or injury. Andreia is patient and will adjust her instructions to suit individuals needs"
G.O. 56 yo - Catford Class
"I have been going to Andreia's pilates class on a Tuesday night for about 6 months. It had been a very long time since I last attended a pilates class and I was quite rusty to start with but after a few classes I really felt the benefit. I felt more supple, stronger and such a great class to do at the end of the working day after sitting down for most of the day. Andreia's class moves at a really good pace, she is great at demonstrating the various positions & it's a really friendly environment. I would highly recommend"
