As a former GB elite triathlon champion (middle distance and national series winner) and world masters’ triathlon medallist (3^rd world triathlon long course) I have continued to ‘walk the talk’ in personal health and fitness. I have worked in the sport, fitness and leisure industry since 1988, in positions ranging from personal trainer, GP exercise referral leader, elite sports coach, health & fitness manager and general manager. Throughout this time, I have developed a wealth of knowledge to provide personalised training programmes and services to meet and exceed personal goals and aspirations

Whether your goals are to increase general fitness and toning, better manage your weight, or compete in an endurance event; I have the experience and knowledge to direct and motivate you to achieve your objectives

My personal training approach is based on years of practical and theoretical knowledge, with an emphasis on developing clients’ personal confidence, motivation, self-analysis, exercise and dietary knowledge; and to inspire long term healthy lifestyle adherence

I will be pleased to discuss how I can assist you meeting your personal goals. For full LED Members a FREE initial, no obligation, fitness review meeting with me is recommended. This can be booked at reception. An initial fitness review allows me to establish your personal requirements, and provides an opportunity for me to detail your best personal trainer service options to meet your needs and aspirations.
