ABOUT ME
I believe we owe it to ourselves to achieve our full potential in life. As a personal trainer I see that as my role; to help my clients achieve their personal fitness goals and reach their full potential. It's such a fulfilling and privileged process to be involved in which is why I work my socks off to ensure my clients progress, succeed and transform their lives. I'm a little older than your typical personal trainer (a touch over 50); having alighted upon this new career direction after redundancy from a job in marketing. There we are, I said it, I'm getting on! So I know what it's like and how difficult it is to juggle family, career and keep fit. I know what it's like, and how to keep an ageing (and failing!) body strong, healthy and active. And I know I can help you achieve your goals, whether that's; weight loss, muscle gain, improved fitness for competitive sport, self-confidence or a more balanced and healthier lifestyle.
