Are you looking for help with your fitness journey?

Poppy

My approach to personal training is not centred solely on your physical development, my philosophy is that coming to the gym should be a part of your week that you really look forward, not dread! It’s time for you and it should contribute to your overall happiness and wellbeing, so my sessions are tailored to you with that in mind. So whether your goals are focused on strength and fitness or even stress-relief we can develop a strategy together to take you one step closer to achieving that goal. I regularly coach group sessions and deliver 1-1 personal training, which I can honestly say, is the most fulfilling work I have ever done.

I do have a particular personal passion for Olympic Weightlifting, which is the discipline that I have chosen to practise for the last 2 and a half years, and I have recently qualified as a Level 1 British Weightlifting Coach. However, I use many different training methods and gather inspiration from a variety of disciplines in programming for my clients to keep things fresh and challenging.

Having started on my own personal fitness journey with Community Gyms over four years ago as a client, I understand how big a challenge it can be and have a passion to help anyone on a similar journey in pursuit of a healthier and happier lifestyle.

I have a background of playing competitive sport; badminton, table tennis and netball, which have given me so many years of enjoyment. This, combined with my positive experience as a client at Community Gyms made me to want to give something back; so after firstly achieving my badminton coaching badge, I began to study for my fitness qualifications and have never looked back. To be able to make a difference in improving people’s health and wellbeing has been one of the best and most rewarding things I have ever done!

In the gym I like to work myself hard and love weight training and boxing, but I use a diverse range of training methods for my clients to suit their individual needs and aim to make each session challenging but fun. I strive to get the best out of all of my clients and hope to provide an experience that has my client leaving the gym happy and looking forward to their next session.

Paul

I joined Unity fitness as a client over 7 years ago and haven’t looked back. So much so that it inspired me to become a coach myself enabling me to help others achieve their fitness goals and improve their wellbeing. Having worked behind a desk for way too long I can empathise with the struggles of keeping motivated to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

My philosophy and approach to coaching is developing one’s health and fitness towards supporting their life pursuits in and out of the gym environment. Empowering others to develop confidence and strength in who they are and what they can do. Then utilising and channeling these to live a life to the fullest potential – a balance of longevity and performance.
Quality and functional training to develop efficient movement is a wonderful tool to be utilised towards our overall physical and psychological needs and goals. I am passionate about helping people better themselves through making exercise and training an enjoyable and important part of their lifestyle.

Within a class environment or 1-2-1 sessions, my goal is to support you to reach your personal goals whilst supporting your health and wellbeing in the process.

I am driven to ensure that the time you take out of your day to spend with me will leave you feeling accomplished, energised and strong. It is also very important to me the positive effects physical activity has on the mindset and mental health. I transitioned into a coaching role after years of playing a variety of sports including hockey and cricket at county and regional levels. I completed my ski instructing qualifications and have worked many ski seasons over the last 10 years. My experiences and interests helped develop my direction towards becoming a Strength & Conditioning coach. I am able to work with you on any sport-related goals, ski-specific fitness and have experience working in premiership rugby,
ski racing and right now with hockey, cricket and tennis athletes.

When I am not in the gym, you can be sure to find me outdoors! Particularly at the coast, stand-up paddleboarding, walking & running with my dog, cycling or cold water swimming!

Ryan

I have been a personal trainer/coach for over 7 years and in that time I have racked up more than 2500hrs in the gym floor

Coaching is my passion both 1:1 and online. Over the last 3 years I have been going through my own body transformation and now I understand fully the mental struggles clients go through when looking to out in muscle or lose weight. To combat this have created systems and processes to overcome nearly every roadblock you could think of 

My style of coaching is clear goal setting, easy to understand optimised training with a no sweat nutrition approach. I am straight talking no BS coach, there isn’t a magic pill to get to where you want to be other than hard work and consistency over time. I want to get you in the best shape of your life both mentally and physically

I wil make fitness and health easy for you to understand, follow and fit into your current life without having to give up the things you love

I specialise in body transformations and I will teach you how to sustainably lose 6-10kg in 90 days and empower you with the tools to keep it off for the rest of your life

Lewis

My passion for sports strength and conditioning combined with Sports Therapy while working in football has lead me to provide a condensed version to personal training clients with the main aims being to improve your general movement quality, improve full body strength and promote a healthy lifestyle. If you have other goals such as injury rehabilitation, sport specific goals or just general improvements in strength and fitness I believe the functional approach I provide to sessions based on my practical working experience will help you reach your goals while making positive long term changes to your lifestyle.
