Training without the pressure
A clear plan, with someone in your corner.
I want personal training to help you feel more capable, not judged. I shape sessions around what you can do now and where you want to go next.
Whether you are new to exercise, returning after time away or tired of plans that never quite fit, I will give you practical guidance and steady support. I will focus on good movement with you, growing confidence and habits that work beyond a single session.
Who it is for
A supportive place to start — or start again.
You do not need specialist knowledge or a particular fitness level. I adapt your coaching to your experience, preferences and goals.
Returning to exercise
Rebuild routine and confidence at a sensible pace after time away from training.
Ready for more structure
Turn good intentions into a realistic approach with direction and accountability.
Working towards a goal

What sessions are like

You will know what you are doing, why you are doing it and how it supports your goals.

- Clear technique guidanceI use practical cues and useful feedback to help you move with more confidence.
- A realistic paceI build your progress steadily, without punishing workouts or expecting perfection.

Common questions
Helpful answers before you start.
If your question is not covered, include it in your enquiry and I will be happy to help.
What if I have never used a gym before?
That is completely fine. I will show you where to go, explain the equipment and coach each exercise at an appropriate pace. You do not need to know gym terminology or arrive already fit.
Do I need an Everlast Gyms membership?
No. Everlast members can use their membership. If you are not a member, I will discuss access options before you book and, where a day pass is required, it can be built into the agreed session fee.
What happens in the Foundation Session?
The Foundation Session costs £50 and lasts 60 minutes. A real coached training session where I see how you move, understand your current ability and identify the best place to start. I then recommend a frequency or package based on your goals, experience, budget and what you can realistically do independently.
Can personal training help with fat loss?
Yes. I can help you use strength and fitness training as part of a realistic, sustainable approach to fat loss. I will focus on consistent habits and progress rather than extreme workouts or quick-fix promises.
Can I train with an injury or health condition?
Tell me about any injury, symptoms, diagnosis, medication or health concern before you train. Depending on your circumstances, I may ask you to get clearance or guidance from your GP, another qualified medical professional or your physiotherapist before we begin or adapt training around it. Personal training does not replace medical treatment or physiotherapy.
What should I wear?
Wear comfortable clothes that allow you to move and supportive trainers. Bring water and any personal items you normally need; I will let you know before the session if anything else is required.
How often should I train with a personal trainer?
There is no single frequency that suits everyone. After coaching your Foundation Session, I will recommend a realistic option based on your goals, experience, budget and how much training you can confidently complete independently.
Do I have to continue after the Foundation Session?
No. There is no obligation to book further sessions. I will give you a clear recommendation, and you can decide whether ongoing coaching is right for you.
What is the free quick chat?
It is a free 10–15 minute phone, WhatsApp or video conversation so you and I can introduce ourselves, briefly discuss your goals and decide whether a Foundation Session makes sense. It is separate from the paid coaching session and there is no obligation to continue.
