I have always had a passion for physical fitness it has been a big part of my life, my dad was definitely my inspiration, he was an RAF Physical Training Instructor, I was very fortunate as mum and dad always encouraged me to follow my dreams. I joined the Army as a Physical Training Instructor and after leaving the forces I worked as a trainer in Germany and Northern Ireland until my return to the UK where I set up my own Personal Training Studio. I wholeheartedly believe that physical fitness, good nutrition, self belief and motivation are the qualities that we all need to achieve optimum health.
After the successful sale of my Personal Training business in Manchester in 2007 I moved to London. I have dedicated my business to working one to one with personal fitness clients since 1997 and have been working within the fitness industry since 1985. I regularly offer advice to the media and magazine publications regarding training and fitness and I am a well respected Fitness Professional within the industry. A member of The Register of Exercise Professionals Level 3 and the National Register of Personal Trainers. In October 2008 I underwent major surgery for a brain tumour this was the significant turning point in my life and the road to recovery has been full of learnings and change. I have trained as an NLP Master Practitioner, Master Time Line Therapist® and Master Hypnosis Practitioner. I did this for myself initially but it has had such a positive affect on my life that It is now a very important part of my training. I work with people to enhance their quality of life both mentally and physically and I believe that we can all make the changes that we want to it just requires a little fine tuning. By using all of these skills I am now working with others to enhance their lives and reach their full potential and bring the balance back into their lives.
