    I know that what we do at The Circle is special and I wake up every day with a little bit of happiness in my heart knowing that together we are making a difference.
    Fash

    I have had a keen interest in sport and well-being all my life but business and then my family occupied my time and my mind so I kept to playing sports and going to the gym regularly until 1998 when I co-founded the Dyke Road Natural Health Clinic.

    The following year I started The Natural Health Service Limited when I realised that wellbeing could not be brought about by treatments alone and in October 2010 I formed the Happy Cell which was later incorporated into the Charity Smile2Live and then finally became The Circle Brighton in 2016 when we moved into our new larger premises. Today, most people accept that what we Think, Do and Eat contribute to every aspect of our mental and physical wellbeing. Dieting alone will not resolve issues in the long term nor will exercise or meditation!

    There are literally thousands of books and publications on “how to be happy and healthy” but nothing will ever help unless the individual makes a decision to make a change and then take direct and decisive action. I have been very lucky and blessed to have an amazing team working alongside me and helping to shape and deliver our ethos; thanks to them we have proved our simple principles over and over again.

    I know that what we do at The Circle is special and I wake up every day with a little bit of happiness in my heart knowing that together we are making a difference.

    Hannah

    Hi, I’m Hannah and I’m all about Spin, Spin, Spin - and now Rebound. I qualified 3 years ago  when I had the chance to train as a RPM instructor – I had never been to a Spin class before & now I’m hooked . Same goes for Rebound. When I was given the chance to train as a Rebound instructor, it was just something I could not turn down.

    I have always been into fitness from a very early age - cross country, athletics and rowing through the years have won a few coastal rowing championships in my time. I still love to get out when I can.

    I have been in the fitness industry for over 19 years and I still love it. On top of being qualified in Spinning and Rebound I am also a level 3 personal trainer.

    My passion is to help people reach their ultimate goals. I can come across a little quiet sometimes but when I have that head mic on I’m unstoppable.

    I love all sorts of music so if I can Spin or even Bounce to it, I’ll use it!

    Joanna

    Teaching fitness classes has become another way to share my passion for dance and fitness. My classes are all about giving your all and having a great time whilst doing it!

    I started dancing at the age of 3 and have always been a keen sports woman. Whilst studying dance and performance arts at college and university I remained very much involved with other types of physical fitness including; kick boxing, yoga, tour biking and triathlon.

    After living in Brighton for 7 years, I moved to Bristol and joined the circus. For several years I trained and performed as an Aerialist, Physical Theatre Artist and Singer. Since qualifying as an Exercise To Music Instructor in 2013, I have focused more on developing and broadening my skills as an instructor. However, I still do a few shows every year and am especially fond of Cabaret.

    I currently teach Zumba, Step, BODYCOMBAT and BODYBALANCE and Yoga; something for everyone!!"

    Join me for some great tunes and a fun and effective workout!

    Kristal

    Kristal’s love for yoga began in 2008 when a friend introduced her to Iyengar.  She then went on to practice regularly and tried many different styles of yoga. She found that this amazing practice was so much more then a physical exercise, it became an internal practice that you could use on and off your mat to help with the obstacles of everyday life. Kristal became a teacher to share her positive experience and energy to make a difference to peoples lives.

    Kristal teaches Vinyasa flow, gentle hatha and Yin. She continues to grow her knowledge with regular workshops. She is currently studying towards her advanced 300hr Vinyasa flow teacher training with Allesandra Pecorella at the aditya Yoga school in London and will be studying with Norman Blair in London later this year for advanced Yin yoga.

    I found yoga about four years ago, where I slowly developed my own practice over time. I started to make up my own flows which included everything from backbends to arm balances, inversions to hip openers. Earlier on this year I completed my 200 hour YTTC in Goa, India and am now certified to teach Ashtanga and Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga. As I continue down this path as a yoga teacher, my knowledge, learning and understanding will forever continue. I place a great emphasis on my students being content with their own personal practice, without comparing themselves to others. Ultimately I want my student to walk away from my class radiating with joy and happiness.

    Helen is a fun and motivational teacher with a positive energy and believes in bringing everyone to their own personal peak.  Helen was head hunted by the founders of Flowetic and is very excited to add Flowetic to her repertoire bringing this new dance exercise class to everyone, inspiring people and giving them the chance to feel like a dancer.

    Flowetic is a beautiful class combining dance, toning and strengthening exercises alongside stretching and relaxation, fitness and wellbeing for the body and mind.

    The soundtrack to a Flowetic class is brilliant and you can zone into the music leaving every day life stress behind, with a mix of choreography to compliment the music using a range of dance styles. 

    When the class has finished, walk out of the studio a little taller and a whole lot happier, just come and see what it’s all about you’ll love it, promise.
