Andy Eliis
Personal Trainer & Group Class Instructor

Now in his early 30s, Andy is the fittest and healthiest he’s ever been.

Alison Adams
Pilates Instructor
Alison Adams; Analytical Chemist by “Trade” but my passion is Pilates!
Alison has been qualified as a Mat Pilates Instructor (Level 3) for 6 years adding a Level 3 exercise for older adults’ qualification 3 years ago. She has a strong interest in Pelvic floor health and is an “Adore your Pelvic Floor Coach” and level 1 Hypopressives instructor (progressing to level 3 soon!).
She loves her work at Unique Results helping to strengthen, mobilise and stretch the group with or without different pieces of small equipment. Posture is so important in everything we do with focus on breathwork and stability.
Alison is often reminded of 2 sayings about Pilates as an exercise program. One is “if it’s easy you’re not doing it right” and the second is from Joseph Pilates himself “You’ll feel better in 10 sessions, look better in 20 sessions and have a completely new body in thirty session
