Hi, I’m Alison Fry – proud mum of three wonderful grown-up kids, wife to the most amazing man, and a very happy fitness instructor with a deep love for sunshine, the south of France, a good glass of red wine, and music that makes you dance like nobody’s watching (hello Scorpions and Mika!).

And this month, I’m thrilled to be celebrating 10 incredible years of AinyFit Ltd – a business that’s not just about fitness, but about fun, connection, and community.

From Friday Zumba to Full-Time Fitness

AinyFit’s story began quite by chance back in 2011, when I picked up a random leaflet and decided to try a Zumba class on a Friday night – not having a clue what it even was! But I was hooked from the first beat. I made a brilliant friend in the instructor, who encouraged me to become a teacher myself. The following year, I qualified in Exercise to Music and never looked back.

By 2015, I decided it was time to take things up a notch. I completed my Fitness Pilates certification, expanded my class offerings, and officially launched AinyFit Ltd. That same year, I left my job as a pre-school practitioner to follow my passion full-time – and I’ve never been happier.

What AinyFit Stands For

Over the past decade, AinyFit has become so much more than a fitness business. It’s a welcoming, judgement-free zone where laughter, movement, and real friendships thrive. Whether it's Fitness Pilates, DanceFIT, or other evolving formats, my goal is simple: to create fun, safe, and inclusive classes where everyone feels at home – no matter their age, background, or ability.

I run established classes across Totton, Calmore, and Marchwood (Hampshire locals, I’m looking at you!), and I’m always training, learning, and bringing fresh ideas to the studio. Because fitness should never feel stale — and you deserve variety.

10 Years of AinyFit Magic

These 10 years have been a whirlwind of:

• Unforgettable classes
• Wonderful people (you know who you are!)
• Plenty of "Saturday Feasts" cooked by my husband
• And yes, a few groans during winter months (did I mention I really don’t like winter?)
• I’ve loved every moment — from seeing shy beginners become confident regulars, to dancing through tough days and celebrating every small victory together.

Thank You ❤️

To everyone who’s joined a class, told a friend, supported me, or simply brought positive vibes into the room: THANK YOU. You’ve helped make AinyFit what it is today, and I’m beyond grateful.

Here’s to the next 10 years – filled with more movement, more laughs, more music, and maybe a bit less broccoli 😄

So, why not come see what it’s all about? Browse the website, drop me a message, or just pop into a class. I promise you’ll be met with a smile, good tunes, and a community that feels like home.

With love and lunges,

Alison xxx
