Our Story

Starting as Reformed Somerville in 2015 with a clear goal in mind to become Somerville’s go-to hub for health and fitness, we’ve evolved from our humble in the heart of Somerville and moved to the bustling industrial estate, rebranding to Evolve in 2019.

Evolve is well and truly establishing itself as one of Somerville’s best kept secrets.

We’re proud to offer over 30 small group classes a week including reformer Pilates and strength and conditioning classes, as well as multiple Exercise Physiologists who continue to transform lives on the daily.

PILATES INSTRUCTOR

gemma jenkin

Gemma has been a dancer for 20 years, performing ballet, jazz, tap, contemporary and theatrical. She graduated at 18 with 2 diplomas in classical ballet and performing arts, and has quite literally travelled the world performing (including Tokyo Disneyland)!
Fitness has always been a part of Gemma's life, and moved from dancing to Pilates, boxing and barre, working in multiple locations.

An advocate for mental health awareness, Gemma takes any opportunity to bring mental health awareness to the forefront. Warning though - she's your typical instructor who's horrible at counting, so get ready for many, many reps and maybe even a few more to make sure you're burning.
