ABOUT BU STUDIO

BU Studio started because we wanted a place that fits real life – somewhere you can train, have fun, and feel part of a community, even when life gets hectic. We’ve always struggled to make the gym work around the kids, school holidays, and busy schedules, so we built a space that makes it easier for everyone. From spin and strength to mobility and recovery, every class is designed to be welcoming, energising, and enjoyable. This is more than a gym – it’s a place where fitness meets real life, and we can’t wait for you to join us.

    FOUNDER

    I started this studio because I wanted a place that felt real. I am twenty nine, a mum of three, and I know exactly what it takes to get in shape when life is busy. I teach most of the classes, I train clients one to one, I do sports massage and I run everything behind the scenes.

    My style is all about making training enjoyable and giving you space to be yourself. I am not just for mums. I push anyone who walks in, from beginners to those who want a proper challenge, men included.

    I love music, dancing and a good twerk on a Friday. If you enjoy energy, fun and a proper workout, you will fit right in with me.

    This studio is built on that belief. Come in, be yourself, and let me help you get where you want to be.

    CLASS INSTRUCTOR

    I lead our pilates flow classes, focusing on strength, control and mindful movement. I’ve been qualified in mat pilates for a year now and have loved every minute of it. I’m passionate about strength pilates and all things wellness, helping people feel strong, balanced and energised.

    My classes are welcoming for all levels and designed to leave you feeling stretched, focused and ready for whatever comes next.

  • Meet Dave

    CLASS INSTRUCTOR

    I’m a qualified Level 3 personal trainer and I run our Blast classes on Tuesdays. I love full body workouts, from HIIT and dumbbells to battle ropes, and I’ve taken on Iron Man events and HYROX challenges myself.

    I keep things high energy, fun and challenging, making sure everyone gets the most out of their session. I’m all about pushing you, supporting you and having a laugh while we work.
