Follow Steps is a Physical Fitness Programme based in London, offering a range of individual and group exercise lessons both face to face and online. They specialise in providing exercise guidance and coaching for adults with neurological, vestibular disorders, limited mobility, or balance issues. Their goal is to help individuals maintain independence with functional and personal activities of daily living.
The Follow Steps team is led by Michaela Zelenkova, who holds a BSc (Hons) degree in Physiotherapy. With over twenty years of experience in the field, Michaela has extensive knowledge in exercise prescription and has been supporting clients with neurological conditions for the past ten years. She has expertise in neurological and vestibular rehabilitation, treating clients with multisensory impairment and complex medical history.

She strongly believes that every repetition counts and that regular practise with the right intensity can make a significant difference in an individual's ability, strength, and balance.
Follow Steps works in partnership with LEGS, a charity that caters to a wide range of neurological conditions. By collaborating with LEGS since 2021, Follow Steps ensures that individuals with physical limitations have access to exercise advice and support. Follow Steps also offers online group exercise lessons and individual online exercise lessons in collaboration with other charities.
