Active Pursuits

Want to get fitter but feel stuck because of your aches or pains?

Are you thinking about getting fitter and stronger this year, but you feel stuck because last time you tried to exercise, your knees, shoulders or back hurt?

You worked with a personal trainer or you attended classes, yet you still felt sore and not in a good way?

Not really sure how to progress due to past experiences?

The great news is everyone, including you, can get fitter and stronger, you just need coaching in the exercises that are right for you, right now and someone who is interested in ensuring you are moving well.

I am a specialist Personal Trainer, Movement Coach and Soft Tissue Therapist who specialises in helping people who feel stuck because of their aches, pains or old injuries.

Using a combination of integrated soft tissue therapy, with the right exercises and movement, you can be fitter and stronger. Gone are the days where you say, “I can’t do lunges because of my knees” or “I can’t reach overhead because of my back”.

Clients who choose to train with me do so because they have struggled with painful joints and fear certain movements. Once they have immersed into a programme with me, they discover they are able make the movements and do the exercises that once brought them pain. Because my clients move better, their discomfort becomes a thing of the past.

Not only are they becoming fitter and stronger, they are also developing confidence to work out harder and try new things.

One of my clients said: I felt quite stuck, in a repeating pattern of motivation followed by injury > despondence. Disillusioned by exercise and PTs and feeling like 'I can't' do certain things.

Now I feel overall a bit more balanced! I no longer have the mindset that 'I can't' do certain things. As we've proven lunges are very much possible!

If you feel stuck or disillusioned by exercise, let’s have a chat and see if we can turn things around for you this year. Complimentary exploratory calls allow you the opportunity to discuss the challenges you face and what you’d like to achieve. Together we decide if I am the best person to support you.

I am based in Worcester Park an clients can come to me however I also offer limited home visit appointments in and around Kingston Upon Thames / Epsom. Online sessions are also available.

Downward dog with some dogs in Koh Phangyan

When planning our holidays, we like them to be active, so on a recent trip to Thailand, we looked to do a bit of yoga at the end of our stay.  The closest one to us offering drop in Vinyasa classes was Samma Karuna, opposite the Art Café, after Haad Chao Pao beach.  Classes are held in an outdoor studio and are suitable for all levels.
