Pilates Founder Ali Handley on Determination, Scaling With Soul and the Power of Community

Ali Handley is the founder of Bodylove Pilates with four studios across Sydney, Bali on the horizon and a community of women who are deeply, genuinely devoted to what she has built.Ali didn't find her calling immediately. She started in PR and media before discovering Pilates in New York, where she specialised in prenatal and postnatal work. She came home to Sydney in 2018 and opened her first studio a month after having her third child.In this conversation we talk about what it really takes to scale something without losing the soul of it, how she holds the line between gut instinct and hard data and the role of genuine community in building a business that lasts.Bodylove has been a consistent anchor in my life for the past six years - through grief, burnout, pregnancy and recovery - and has fundamentally changed my relationship with my body and with movement. I'm share excited to share Ali's with you.Find Bodylove Pilates at bodylove-pilates.com | Bodylove Mamas at bodylove-mamas.com | Follow Ali: @bodylove_pilates Hosted on Acast.
