About Ally

I'm Ally, and I own and run Amovida, a boutique fitness studio in East Horsley, Surrey, training in person in the studio and online for people who can't get to me. After 25+ years in this industry, I opened the studio with my husband to serve the people the fitness industry forgot, people who hate gyms and gym culture but still want to be fit and strong.

A big part of my work is helping women get back to exercise after a hysterectomy or other pelvic surgery safely, and without the "just take it easy for six weeks" advice that leaves so many people confused about what they're actually allowed to do. I've spent a lot of time digging into the evidence on intra-abdominal pressure and post-surgical activity restrictions (nerdy, I know), and I now have a programme for clients as well as a training course for instructors on return to exercise and sport after hysterectomy.

More recently I've taken that same "let's actually understand what's happening in the body" approach into cancer rehabilitation. I hold the CanRehab Level 4 qualification in cancer rehab exercise specialism, so if you're going through treatment, recovering from surgery, or just want to move safely and confidently during or after a cancer diagnosis, this is something I can help with using exercise that's built around where you are in treatment and recovery.

Alongside all that, I teach Group Power, Group Active and Group Centergy, have developed signature workouts for the Studio that include Core for Life, Move for Life and Groundworks Strength and I still love the "normal" side of fitness just as much and helping first-timers walk through the door without feeling intimidated.
