Our Founders
Meet Alexis & Janelle
Soulsway was born from 20 years of hands-on experience with A-list celebs, Fortune 100 execs and people hungry for transformation around the globe.
As seasoned pros in the wellness world, our founders couldn’t help but side-eye the not-so-pretty side of the industry—the toxic values, the unrealistic ideals, and the way some fitness spaces seem better at feeding insecurities than fostering growth. Armed with their own personal journeys, science-backed techniques, and proven frameworks, they decided it was time to shake things up. The result? A fresh, empowering approach to movement: Soulsway.
Alexis Artin
Alexis Artin is an embodiment teacher, multi-certified and licensed coach based in Los Angeles.
She began dancing at the age of four and has since shaped global fitness brands and created game-changing wellness experiences for an array of students and celebrity clients alike. Combining movement, meditation, somatic science and trusted coaching frameworks, her approach to wellness is holistic—focusing distinctly on mending the bridges between the heart, mind, body and soul.
As the co-founder of soulsway and the creator of The Soul-Body Paradox, Alexis is ultimately a student of human behavior. From her private practice to her public classes, she spends her time exemplifying the soul-body's natural power and capacity to self-heal.
