With over 14 years experience in the fitness industry you could say that all I know is Health and Fitness.
My journey started out just before my 16th birthday as an apprentice fitness instructor, before gaining my Personal Trainers qualification and then subsequently training as a sports massage therapist. My next goal is to become a qualified nutritionist in 2022 as I’m a huge believer in continual personal development and holding a “white belt” mentality.
I’ve competed in both powerlifting competitions at regional level as well as mens physique, but my personal passion lies in strength sports.
If I had to sum up my strengths as a coach and have to say its my personal skills and getting the best out of everyone I train with my main ethos being to make people leave feeling better than when they walked in.

I’ve trained with Mike for many years prior to creating Silk Fitness Therapy with them. I believe in the benefits of small group personal training as it is how I have also trained for many years, and I see how structuring these sessions as we have done is a great way for people to achieve results.
After my own personal health journey I switched to a plant-based diet in 2016 and now want to inspire and motivate people to take command of their health and wellbeing and live a healthy way of life that is sustainable.
With a customer service background, I wanted to get back to working with people again and became a PT in 2019. I want to work with people, particularly women, who are committed to their health and fitness journey, who want to get fitter, stronger and embrace change.
