Fitness Soul Studio

Absolutely love these Zumba classes! 💃🔥<br>Amazing energy, great music, lots of laughs, and such a positive atmosphere every single time. Joanna is incredible and always keeps everyone motivated and smiling.<br><br>I always leave tired but in the best mood ❤️

I honestly can't recommend Joanna from Fitness Soul enough! I started my fitness journey with absolutely zero knowledge or experience in strength training, and after just six weeks, I feel incredibly confident and like I genuinely know what I'm doing.<br>What truly set her apart was the expertise in adapting the training to accommodate my specific needs, ensuring every session was challenging yet safe. Joanna is a brilliant teacher, focusing heavily on technique and form, which has been essential for my progress.<br>If you're looking for a personal trainer who is not only knowledgeable about building strength but also patient, adaptive, and dedicated to educating you on the "how and why," look no further.

Tucked away in Tennant Street this club is the nirvana of exercise addicts. I'm one of them.<br>I made that post about 10 years ago and have revisited it today (8/7/2025).<br>The comments are as relevant as ever.<br>Fitness Soul has established its identity as "The gym for people who hate gyms".<br>It's for people who understand the need to exercise but are not naturally athletic and are looking for an environment that caters for their mindset.<br>Natural athletes welcome too!<br>💯% genuine review.💪🏻👍🏻

Six weeks of PT with Joanna at FitnessSoul and I’m stronger, running better, and down centimetres on hips/waist. She seamlessly adapted training around an unrelated injury so I never lost momentum. Outstanding coach — couldn’t recommend more.

Honestly, at the beginning I wasn’t sure this was for me. But once I started training, it completely changed my mind. Week by week you notice how much stronger, fitter, and more confident you become, it’s such a rewarding feeling.<br><br>What surprised me most is how good it makes you feel, not just physically but mentally too. The energy, the motivation, even the rush of happiness you get after each session, it’s addictive in the best way.<br><br>I’d recommend this to absolutely everyone. Once you give it a try, you realize how much you actually needed it.

I’ve been going to Fitness Soul for over two months now, and it’s the first time I’ve ever felt comfortable in a gym environment.<br>From day one, I felt welcomed and supported by Lez, Joanna and the rest of the team. The atmosphere is relaxed, friendly, and genuinely encouraging. It doesn’t feel like a typical gym at all—it’s more like a small, active community where everyone is invited, no matter their level.<br><br>I started without any experience lifting weights, and I’ve surprised myself by actually enjoying it. The classes are well-structured, and all the team really know how to guide you in a way that builds confidence. Zumba and kettlebells are my favourites, but I’ve also really enjoyed strong core and social strength.<br><br>In just a couple of months, I’ve noticed that I feel stronger and more motivated. For the first time, working out doesn’t feel like a chore—it feels like something I want to keep doing.<br><br>If you're looking for a place that’s beginner-friendly, supportive, and far from intimidating, I honestly couldn’t recommend Fitness Soul enough.

Zumba is my first love and after 15 years of dancing with Fitness Soul I can assure you that there is nothing like it to wash away the stresses of the day. A range of classes and special events will draw you in. My second love is walking the hills and this became badly affected by osteoarthritis - I knew that Fitness Soul could help. I have Personal Training that meets my needs and every session is different and fun - Joanna always thinks of something different to keep you involved and to help you reach your goals. Strength and core training can help manage symptoms of musculo skeletal conditions. its natural to be cautious but the years of expertise at Fitness Soul means they know how to support you. I no longer need pain killers and am walking further, faster and higher these days. With some hard work, commitment and the right support you soon start to see some benefits. Its scientific but just now for me its also magical!

Brilliant small family-feel gym with brilliant owners and coaches.<br><br>Not only do you get supported and encouraged by the owners and coaches, but you’re also supported and encouraged by the other members.<br><br>Absence is noticed - if you need help with accountability this is your place.<br><br>Small group PT sessions are hard but progress comes. And we all know weight bearing is good for us as we get older!<br><br>Not experienced anything like it.

Fitness Soul is the perfect place to get fit and strong in a warm and friendly environment. Everyone involved has so much energy and passion, you can't help but want to keep going back for more. I am so much fitter and stonger since joining, and truly enjoy (most) moments. I have never lasted long in other gyms, this one has me fully committed.

I met Joanna and Letzek through a friend in common, and I was instantly inspired by their dedication and passion, knowing they built Fitness Soul from the ground up all by themselves! It’s incredible to see their vision come to life in such a welcoming and vibrant community. Since then, Fitness Soul has always been there for me during some of my most difficult transitions since moving to Edinburgh. Whether it was healing after a breakup, dealing with burnout at work, or even navigating lockdown — we exercised online using apples and potatoes. Great memories!<br>Fitness Soul is not just a place to work out; it's a community where everyone lifts each other up. The instructors are incredibly passionate and genuinely care, creating a supportive environment that inspires you to push your limits without feeling overwhelmed. My favorite classes are Zumba and Social Strength! Zumba is an absolute pure boost of energy after a long day at work. Social Strength feels like hanging out with friends while lifting weights – how awesome is that?I also love Konga with Roz, if you really want to sweat to awesome tunes. These classes make working out so much fun, and I’ve noticed remarkable changes in my strength and endurance because of them.<br>I’ve been with Fitness Soul on and off for almost 10 years, and no matter where life has taken me, I always find my way back. I am now determined to stay! It’s not just a gym - it’s where I’ve shared numerous belly laughs, made friendships, and felt completely accepted. It truly feels like home! There is no judgment here, and everyone helps each other, no matter your fitness level. If you're looking for a place to get fit, feel inspired, and be part of an amazing community, look no further than Fitness Soul! 💪♥️
