Grow stronger every day

Magnolia Fitness is a bright, welcoming private studio in Bristol offering solo, duet and trio sessions in Reformer Pilates, Mat Pilates, Barre, and Sculpt. Whether you’re looking to build strength, improve your posture, or move with greater confidence, you’ll receive expert guidance with a personal, encouraging touch.

Reformer Pilates is a dynamic, full-body workout that builds strength, improves posture, and enhances flexibility while using the spring-loaded Reformer machine. Each session is tailored to your needs, with a focus on control, alignment, and mindful movement.

Available as solo or duet sessions on two side-by-side Reformers, this is perfect for solo training or sharing with a partner, friend, or family member (parent & teen combos welcome!).

REFORMER PILATES

BARRE

Barre is all about deep, targeted strength. Expect small, controlled movements that isolate and tone - with that signature shake and burn in all the right places. Each session will sculpt your core, glutes, arms, and legs.

With expert guidance and personalised adjustments, you’ll build strength, stamina, and serious muscle tone, one pulse at a time.

Available solo, duet or trio sessions.

MAT PILATES & SCULPT

Mat Pilates blends classical structure with modern movement for a full-body workout that starts from your core. Expect deep muscle engagement, improved posture, and a focused burn using just your bodyweight, breath, and precision.

Sculpt builds on your Pilates foundation, adding heavier weights, resistance bands, and strength-based sequencing. It's slow, deliberate, and seriously effective. This class is designed to challenge your muscles, boost definition, and leave you feeling powerful.

Available as solo, duet, or trio sessions.

Meet Your Trainer

Hi, I’m Elena -- a certified Pilates instructor, longtime spin coach, and someone who’s loved movement since I was a teen. For years, I worked in television development and production, helping to bring stories to life on screen. But off-screen, I always turned to fitness as my way to recharge, connect, and feel grounded.

Now, I’ve taken that same creative energy and poured it into Magnolia Fitness, a private studio designed to help you feel strong, present, and lit up from the inside out. Whether we’re sculpting on the mat, flowing on the Reformer, or pulsing at the barre, my goal is to help you move with intention and joy.

With a storyteller’s eye for detail and connection, I create workouts that are thoughtful, energising, and supportive. Magnolia is a bright, welcoming space, and I can’t wait to share it with you.

The Magnolia Studio

Step into a calm, light-filled space designed to inspire movement and focus your energy. With soft sage green and cream tones, the studio features two Align Pilates reformers and a curated selection of Onyx fitness equipment -- including weights, bands, and props.

Movement that builds muscle, confidence, and calm.

  • Elena is such a warm and welcoming person and created such a beautiful space to practice in, it’s an absolute joy. I tried my first ever reformer pilates class with her and felt really safe. She gently eased me in but also challenged me enough to get a really great workout.

    I have lower back issues and left feeling more limber and relaxed than I have felt in a while. The adjustments were done so kindly and were really helpful, I miss that in some other classes I attend. Would highly recommend Magnolia Fitness to anyone!

    MARIA LEWIS

  • A fun, relaxing, and rewarding class! I was a little nervous getting back into Reformer pilates after such a long break due to illness, but Elena is very attentive and patient, taking the time to show proper form and explain the movements to ensure I got the best out of the session. Even with some more challenging moves, I felt well guided by Elena.

    I had such a good time and can't wait to book my next session!

    EMMA SCOTT

  • I had so much fun today!! The class was awesome, super tailored to me and I loved the instruction - a really good balance of challenging and supportive.

    EMMA CHERESKIN

  • We (group of 3) did a Barre class at Magnolia Fitness and had such a fantastic experience! Elena was full of energy, clearly experienced, and incredibly well-qualified. Her positive vibe kept us going even when our muscles were burning (in the best way!).

    It was definitely a great workout. The studio itself is beautiful, fresh, and welcoming — such a lovely space to train in. We’ll definitely be back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun, effective workout in a gorgeous setting!
