Meet Alana

Alana Cowie, founder of Feel in Oldmeldrum, spent 10 years working as a professional dancer. Pilates first became part of her life towards the end of her dance career quickly growing into a new genuine passion.

After hanging up her dancing shoes, Alana retrained in London at Ten Health and Fitness, completing their intensive training programme to become a full-time reformer instructor. She later moved back home to Scotland and continued her professional development with STOTT Pilates, in both Mat and Reformer Pilates.

Alana is also pre and post-natal trained and has a particular appreciation for how Pilates can support the body through different stages of life. She loves teaching the wider community, but is especially passionate about working with those who truly benefit from movement helping clients build strength and confidence by connecting to their bodies.

"I can’t recommend Alana highly enough. She creates such a warm, welcoming atmosphere and always explains each movement clearly, making every session enjoyable and easy to follow. Thanks to her expert guidance and encouragement, I’ve become stronger, more confident, and much more aware of my technique."

"As someone new to Pilates, I felt apprehensive before my first reformer session, but Alana immediately put me at ease. She explains every movement clearly, tailors each session to your ability, and ensures you work safely and effectively. I left my first class excited to come back."
