  I’ve been training with Zhiwei for about a year now, and working with her has made a huge difference to how I move and feel. What I appreciate most is how personalised every session is. She takes the time to understand my goals and adapts everything to suit my needs rather than following a standard programme. My focus has been on improving mobility, flexibility and strengthening the smaller stabilising muscles, and every session is thoughtfully tailored around those goals. Zhiwei is exceptionally knowledgeable and always explains what we’re doing, which muscles we’re targeting and why. Her background as a physiotherapist gives her depth understanding of anatomy and movement, which sets her apart from many instructors. Like many people who spend long hours at a desk, I often struggle with tight shoulders and upper back discomfort. Through a combination of Pilates and her physiotherapy expertise, she has helped relieve these issues significantly. On several occasions, she has even used hands on techniques to release tension and address problem areas, which I’ve found incredibly helpful. What stands out most is how attentive and genuinely caring she is. She is always thinking about what will benefit me most and adjusts the sessions accordingly. After a year of training with her, I not only feel stronger and more mobile, but I also have a much better understanding of my own body and movement patterns. I would highly recommend Zhiwei to anyone looking for a highly personalised Pilates experience from someone who combines excellent teaching with expert physiotherapy knowledge.

  I have had some private pilates sessions with Zhiwei on the reformer and it was a wonderful experience. She explained which muscles I should be focusing on for each exercise, how I should be breathing and whether my posture is okay. Most importantly, she tailored the advice based on my strength and flexibility levels. Her calm voice and kind smile also helps me feel good and time passes quickly. Yet, I know I've exercised well as my muscles were sore the next day. All in all, would definitely recommend her!

  I had a great experience with Zhiwei when I sprained my wrist. She is gentle, caring, and professional and uses a variety of techniques and tailored exercise programmes to support recovery. After just a few sessions I started to see improvements and she was encouraging throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend Zhiwei to anyone seeking physiotherapy, especially if you’re recovering from an injury.

  Amazing experience! I just started my pilates classes with Zhiwei last month, it was a very beginner-friendly session. It's a slow-pasted sport to help you build strength, muscles and shape your body. Highly recommended. Zhiwei is a very professional pilates trainer and physical therapist, she checked my posture before class and would adjust our training plan based on her observation to make sure I won't feel too tired over session. She is very nice and easy to talk with. The pilates studio is very comfortable, tidy and clean. Facilities are cleaned before every session. I had one year experience of pilates few years ago, and just restarted recently. Zhiwei is helping me to slowly build my body back for advanced sessions. If you are considering starting as a beginner or you are looking for advanced sessions, I highly recommend you to try a session with Zhiwei ;)

  Zhi Wei helped me out with a re-occuring forearm injury that was hindering my usual work out programme. She carried out an assessment to identify the problem, then used a combination of acupuncture and sports massage to relieve the pain. She then sent over some exercises to help solve the problem permanently. She was very friendly and knowledgeable. I'd highly recommend!
