Training and fitness has formed a huge part of my life for the last 15 years. I have a wealth of knowledge and experience in the industry and I am passionate about sharing my enthusiasm with others.

I thrive on motivating and helping individuals to reach their goals.

Whatever you are working towards, I will cater to your needs.

My aim is to help people positively improve their health and wellbeing through exercise. I believe any activity is good activity, and has positive implications on both our physical and mental health. Movement is medicine.

Throughout my two years of experience as a PT I have specialised in helping people to lose body fat and gain muscle, whilst still being able to live a life that they can enjoy. If we don't enjoy our lifestyle (exercise & diet) we are far less likely to adhere to it. Therefore, impacting our chance of gaining and then sustaining results. Finding a healthy balance is the key to long term success.

Exercise is my main interest and passion. I love football, the gym and running. So much so I completed the Amsterdam half marathon last year, in aid of the shooting star cancer unit in Wrexham Maelor.

I am always here to help, there is no such thing as a silly question so feel free to ask me anything if you see me around the gym. I will always do my best to help.

One quote I like to remind people of is….

"Believe you can, and you're halfway there".

Sports and exercise have always been an important part of my life but my passion for fitness grew even stronger in my work as a counsellor. Not only have I seen the powerful part exercise plays in my clients’ journey towards healing and recovery, I have also experienced it's transformative impact on my own mental health and total well-being. I engage in strength training regularly not just because it helps me maintain a healthy constitution and optimum functioning; it also gives me joy, energy, and clarity of mind.

Holding dual qualifications in Psychotherapy (Master of Science) and Personal Training (Diploma), I comprehend the importance of holistic well-being.

I have an extensive background in mental health care and my approach gives me the unique ability to go beyond physical fitness to address the mental and emotional aspects of training. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned gym-goer, you can approach me as you are. My empathetic and supportive guidance will help you feel at ease and enjoy the process and my scientific approach will aid you in understanding the rationale behind each exercise.

I will help you uncover factors affecting your motivation, break through plateaus and achieve your goals. I seek to empower you to gain confidence in yourself and equip you towards independence so that, ultimately, you can reach your full potential in body, mind, and spirit.

With over 30 years of focused and disciplined training, I became a qualified Shaolin Kung Fu teacher. I also became a Great British Grand Champion in Freestyle Kickboxing at Black Belt level.

Once I retired from Kickboxing I joined the army giving me 12 years of experience in the Military and 2 tours of Afghanistan.

After leaving the British Army I became focused on training others as a level 3 Personal Trainer and now specialising as a level 4 Strength and Conditioning Personal Trainer.

My advice is whatever your goals, believe in yourself and never say never.

When our dreams become our goals, they can one day become our reality.
