about us
This is the place people come when they are ready to stop putting their health last
Bodywise Boutique Wellness was built for people who want to get stronger, feel better, and age well, but need somewhere expert, welcoming, and genuinely supportive to do it. A place where you are known, coached, and cared for.
Why Bodywise Was Built
There was a facility here, It was struggling, Aida saw something different
Aida Pecelyte had been teaching yoga at a wellness facility in Warnham when the chance came to take it over. At the time, it was run-down and losing its way. Most people would have walked past it. Aida bought it.
She had spent years watching what happened when people were given the right support in the right environment. She had seen people who were nervous, in pain, or had given up on the idea of being active again, change completely when they were treated with care, coached with expertise, and welcomed into a community that felt like their own.
She did not want to just run a gym. She wanted to build a place where people could genuinely transform their health. Where the staff knew your name, your goals, and your history. Where the coaching was personalised, the environment was warm, and the results were real.
Eight years on, that is exactly what Bodywise has become.
What We Believe
You are not too old. You are not too unfit, You have just not found the right place yet
Most people who come to Bodywise have tried before. They have done the class, the diet, the gym membership. And somewhere along the way, it stopped working, or it never really started. Not because they lacked effort. But because they were doing it without proper support, in an environment that was not built for them.
At Bodywise, we believe that exercise and wellness should be accessible to everyone, regardless of age, fitness level, health history, or starting point. We believe the right coaching, the right community, and the right environment change everything.
And we believe your healthiest years are not necessarily behind you. For many of our members, they are only just beginning.
How We Work
Our approach:
five pillars, one goal
Everything we do at Bodywise is built around our Stronger for Life philosophy. That means we do not just train bodies. We help people build stronger, healthier lives through five interconnected pillars:
Strength
Building physical strength, confidence, and resilience for everyday life. Carrying shopping. Playing with grandchildren. Getting up from a chair without effort. Strength is the foundation.
Movement
Improving mobility, balance, flexibility, and functional fitness. Reducing stiffness. Moving with ease and confidence. Doing the things that matter to you without pain getting in the way.
Recovery
Supporting wellbeing through rest, recovery, and complementary wellness. Our Salt Therapy and Infrared Sauna are part of this. Recovery is not optional. It is where progress is consolidated.
Nutrition
Promoting a healthy, balanced approach to eating without calorie counting, restriction, or unsustainable diets. Real food, sustainable habits, and guidance that fits your life.
Community
Connection, accountability, and friendship that keeps you consistent even when motivation dips. Many of our longest-standing members will tell you the community is what kept them coming back in the early weeks.
Who We Help
Adults aged 50+ who are ready to Put their health First
Our members are not athletes. They are people in their 50s, 60s, and 70s who have spent years prioritising work, family, and everyone else. They often come to us managing health conditions, recovering from surgery or illness, or simply noticing that the body they took for granted for decades needs a little more attention now.
They come to us having felt nervous about exercise, intimidated by traditional gyms, or stuck in a cycle of starting and stopping that has knocked their confidence. And they leave, usually a few weeks in, wondering why they waited so long.
We have supported members through significant weight loss, improved strength and mobility, preparation for surgery and recovery afterwards. Some members have also seen meaningful improvements in wider measures of health alongside the changes they have made to their exercise, nutrition and lifestyle.
But our greatest results are not always measured on a scale or in a blood test. They are measured in how people walk, how they feel, what they say they can do again, and how they talk about themselves.
The Team
Coaches who know your name, your goals, and your story
Every Bodywise coach is here because they believe in what we do. They don't simply deliver a workout and move on. They get to know you - your goals, your starting point, your strengths, your limitations and what is happening outside the gym too.
From Small Group Personal Training to your regular Wellness Reviews, our coaches work together to support your progress, adapt your training and help you stay accountable.
When you join Bodywise, you're not just getting access to sessions. You're getting a coaching team that is invested in your progress and present throughout your journey.
