BAM

24 hours with Chloe Hodgson

Meet Chloe: Pilates instructor, sound healer, and wild swim enthusiast. From guiding clients through early morning Pilates sessions to embracing strength training under the autumn sun—and even sneaking in a playful trampoline bounce.

Chloe’s day is a blend of movement, mindfulness, and self-care. Nestled in the tranquil Cotswolds, she creates space for both physical fitness and mental well-being. Whether it’s through cosy sound baths or playful moments spent with her pup, Chloe’s approach to wellness is all about finding balance where fitness nurtures both the body and the mind.

  1. What’s the best track to get your heart pumping during a workout?
    Any Fred Again track—I love his energy!
  2. What’s your favourite way to recover after an intense workout?

    Upper body strength training—god it’s tough, but I’m almost starting to enjoy it.
