THE FAYA METHOD

Where Movement Inspires Confidence

Connecting body and mind, for a stronger you.

CHANGE YOUR LIFE THROUGH MINDFUL MOVEMENT

Hi, I’m Sophie - the face behind FAYA by Sophie, a Pilates and Yoga community for all.

I’m a certified yoga and Pilates instructor who creates feel-good, effective classes for every body. From Mat and Reformer Pilates to Yoga, my classes are designed to build strength, consistency, and a strong mind–body connection, without the pressure. You can practise with me in the studio, online, or in a home-based setting, making movement accessible and flexible for your lifestyle.

Each class is thoughtfully crafted with care and intention to support you at every level. Whether you’re looking to get stronger, find stillness, or move with more purpose, you’ll be guided with warmth and positivity on your own unique wellness journey. This is where discipline meets joy, and real transformation begins.

Work With Me

FAYA stands for Flow As You Are. Simply, movement designed for everybody. FAYA was born from meeting people so often holding themselves back from starting because of a lack of confidence or self-belief. The beautiful thing about Yoga and Pilates is that they celebrate individuality and meet you exactly where you are making them truly accessible for everyone.

Yoga and Pilates may be different practices, but at their core, they’re deeply connected. When you practice them individually and blend them into your weekly routine, something truly magical happens. You begin to feel grounded, connected, aligned, and confident and that’s when long-lasting habits form and real change begins to unfold in ways you never expected.

Finally, a workout that keeps you coming back.

Each class is a purposeful journey designed to keep you inspired, consistent, and evolving. Rooted in an inclusive, welcoming approach and supported by a beautiful community, this is a space you’ll genuinely look forward to returning to.

This is where your evolution begins. Through intentional movement, intelligent sequencing, and mindful strength, each class supports your body and nervous system while helping you feel grounded, capable, and strong. Practised consistently, it becomes more than a workout, it’s a way of moving, feeling, and showing up for yourself with confidence and care.

THE FAYA METHOD

  • CONNECTION

    Connection is the foundation of the Method by FAYA. Through intentional, breath-led movement, we reconnect with the body and bring the mind into the present moment. This awareness allows us to move with precision, control, and purpose building strength, balance, and stability from the inside out. As we deepen this connection, confidence becomes embodied rather than forced. When we learn to truly connect with our bodies, we begin to understand ourselves, and movement becomes a pathway to alignment and self-trust.

  • CONFIDENCE

    Confidence is built through intentional movement, not comparison. Everyone is welcome, whether it’s your first class or part of your ongoing practice. Our all-levels sessions guide you to move with control, precision, and awareness, honoring your body’s pace. Movement becomes a tool for self-discovery rather than perfection, empowering you to move with ease, feel stronger, and step confidently into your future self. With each practice, you reconnect with your core strength and learn to trust the power within your body.

  • COMMUNITY

    Community has become a buzzword, but here it’s real. FAYA is a welcoming space to refill your energy, reconnect with yourself, and grow within a movement community. Pilates brings us together to share, support, and uplift one another, both on and off the mat. With every class, conversation, and shared moment, we build a space that inspires you to move with intention and step into your strongest self. True community fuels your journey, because strength and confidence flourish best when they’re shared.

Hi, I’m Sophie, the founder of FAYA Wellness.

A space for empowered movement and meaningful connection through Yoga, Pilates, and Wellness Events. As a passionate, qualified instructor from Surrey, I’m deeply grateful for how these practices have transformed my life - not only as a form of movement, but as a mindset. I trained in these practices so I could share their powerful, healing potential with others. Yoga and Pilates have given me strength, clarity, and connection - and I believe they can do the same for you.

At FAYA, we welcome every journey and every story, because while our paths may be different, our experiences are deeply shared. This is a place to connect, grow, and Flow As You Are.
