About



I started my career in the fitness industry over 20 years ago with Fitness First.

Since then I have gained experience in other large gyms and independent businesses, where I have continued to grow and develop my knowledge and skills.

Unlike a lot of other fitness professionals, I don’t have a background in sport. Growing up I led a very unhealthy lifestyle; smoking, drinking and eating A LOT of junk food. Having (mostly!) overcome all of this gives me a unique insight into what it takes to make a lifestyle change and achieve real results.

I use a variety of training methods including circuits, intervals, free-weights, resistance bands, kettlebells and calisthenics.

Training Methods



Bootcamp





Bootcamp workouts are high intensity and fun! Bootcamp is an interval training workout with bursts of intense activity and rests of lighter activity. We use calisthenics, kettlebells, resistance bands, free weights as well as drills and sprints.



Draga (Viking Yoga)





Draga is an intense version of yoga that focuses on strength-building poses while also improving flexibility and balance.

There are many benefits you can expect to see when practicing Draga on a regular basis including increased flexibility, greater strength, reduced stress, better sleep and fewer aches and pains.



Challenges





Our fitness challenges are fun workouts in their own right with the added benefit of highlighting your progression and growth on your fitness journey.
