EXPERT PERSONAL TRAINING

"My darling Steph. I will forever be in your debt. Thank you for helping me be stronger (physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually) I am strong and healthy despite injury and being small. You are the best. xxx"

"I asked Steph to help me as i was on the waiting list for a knee replacement and was still struggling with back ache despite having had major back surgery the previous year. We have worked over the last ten months to build my core and strength around my body. Steph has been able to tailor a programme specifically for me and this has resulted in less pain and more physical strength. I have also been able to decrease the number of painkillers I was taking. I appreciate I was probably one of her less abled and most physically challenging clients but by taking small steps each week I have become more confident about the future. I don't want to have surgery and I am confident with the support of Steph that we can delay this for some considerable time."

"Since training with Steph my confidence has grown so much! I feel stronger every time we train. She never gives up on me even when I'm complaining and saying I can't do more! Her motivation makes me work harder, and I actually enjoy training, even doing it on my own at home or the gym now too! which I never felt I could do before! She is not just a PT, she is a motivator, a person to rant to when I need it, a guide and a good friend. "

"Since I have started the training with you, back in September I have built up my core strength which has had huge improvement on my lower back. I have since been almost pain free, which has helped me enormously with my work."

"Steph has helped me build a better understanding of my body and its capabilities. She has catered my training to my fitness levels and given me the belief I can achieve my exercise goals. She has challenged me as well as rehabilitate me after injury ensuring safe measures and techniques every step of the way - including keeping my impatience at bay. When Steph asked me what I needed from my workout 7 years ago my only requirements was to keep up with a very busy lifestyle; to feel energised enough in my every day. She has provided me with that ability together with the added bonus of a now healthy fitness addiction! My shape has changed for the better and I feel so much more toned than ever I love that we never workout the same, and that she provides the correct measure of firm but fair in her attitude towards training me when I can sometime not feel the required enthusiasm."

"Thank you, Steph, for all of our PT sessions. For nearly 10 years now you have been my 'go to' you get me physically back on track and mentally lift my spirits. Every session is packed with new challenges, and you seem to know exactly when I need a push. I feel completely safe in your hands with my disability, and I am eternally grateful for everything. We have so much fun too. Thank you Xxx"

"Well, it's been a right hit and miss year, but I would say it's our PB of 200kg hex lift and steady lifting gains in Oly, but not PB'S, the sessions also always are a combination of cardio, technical and strength work, but one thing for sure is sweat!"

Since Steph has been training me I feel a lot fitter and more determined to keep going with my fitness and carry on exercising outside my sessions with Steph. I also love the fact that Steph can incorporate many aspects of fitness into my training - weights, high intensity, cardio, Pilates and yoga, depending on what I need or how I feel each session. I really appreciate that Steph listens to me and what my body needs each week, so if I am more energised we do high intensity, cardio or weights, but if not we do more Pilates, core work or whatever Steph thinks is suitable. Every session with Steph is different and always enjoyable"

"Steph motivates me to get my fitness game on. It's not just about weight loss it's how you feel inside. Steph provides various types of exercise to fit my various needs. She knows exactly what I need and it changes all the time from mental strength to physical fitness. It has helped I have lost a stone in 4 months but without Steph backing me and supporting me I wouldn't be where I am now. Thanks Steph, here's to the next 4 months and that next stone"

"Amazing PT instructor, helped me loose two dress size not just with workouts but help with diet and nutrition, Steph goes above and beyond the normal scope of a personal trainer to GET you reach your goals, would highly recommend her"

"Firstly Steph was my sports massage therapist- the absolute best I have ever had - she has helped me keep a trapped nerve in my back under control with her excellent knowledge and dedication, then I decided to try PT with her, because she has such good knowledge of my body from the massage she quickly detected my weaknesses and built a program to make me stronger in the places such as glutes where I was very weak and unbalanced to support my back and make me more even this means I am much less susceptible to flare ups from the trapped nerve but I also have become far more toned and slimmer than I have ever been before so it's a win win situation for me! "

"Before relocating, I trained with Steph for 3 years consistently and whilst initially it was for weight loss, I quickly began to enjoy the process rather than just the physical results. Steph helped me to improve both my physical and mental strength, which has helped me to implement a consistent approach. Following an injury to my hip, Steph also supported me with my form and to understand and connect with my body on a deeper level, which has stayed with me to this day. Overall Steph has a warm, friendly, non- judgemental, yet professional approach. Her dedication to ongoing personal development and her experience shines through her tailor-made sessions and is 100% committed to assisting you to achieve your goals"

"I have been having strength training PT with Steph for a couple of years now. I could never have imagined that lifting weights would be something I would be able to do and definitely not something I would actually enjoy doing! Steph is so particular on technique and very knowledgeable, which enables you to gradually build your confidence. She always carefully plans each session and records previous sessions so she can track your progress. Being female and fast approaching 50 it has become really important to me to maintain my muscles and strength and protect my bones. Mixing this in with one of Steph's yoga classes or sports massages really makes you feel great. Steph is a very talented, patient and friendly teacher. "

"Steph started providing me with PT exercises over 5 years ago as I required specific help with circulation in my legs due to a DVT - Steph has consistently provided different and very effective exercise and massages over the past five years which has helped immensely. I feel not only that the blood circulation in my legs has increased back to normality but also my fitness has improved. This has helped me avoid having to take long term medication. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Steph as a professional personal trainer"

"I lost two dress sizes by Steph helping me with a detailed workout regime and assisting me with my nutrition and diet. Steph goes above and beyond the normal scope of a Personal Trainer to get you to reach your goal, I would highly recommend her"

"Steph motivates me to get my fitness game on. She knows exactly what I need and it changes from mental strength to physical fitness. It's not just about weight loss, its about how you feel inside. I have lost a stone so far and without Steph, I wouldn't be where I am now"

"Steph has a warm, friendly, non-judgmental, yet professional approach. Her dedication to ongoing personal development and her experience shines through her tailor-made sessions and is 100% committed to assisting you to achieve your goals"

"Steph has been an absolute super star of an online trainer. Pre pregnancy, I always enjoyed fitness and found it relatively easy to stay focussed. However post baby, I tried a few different programmes to get back into it and lose weight, but i wasn't seeing massive results. It was at that point that I decided to get in touch with Steph having used her in the past as a personal trainer. We decided that the online coaching would be the best option for me as it would mean I could do the workouts in my own time, without worrying about childcare. Steph's continuous support, enjoyable workouts and guidance on nutrition enabled me to lose the baby weight and get to my goal weight (in fact just under it!) I lost almost 6kg in total. Steph made me think about food in a different way, and the best thing is, I never really felt hungry either, so it wasn't about starving myself, it was just about making good choices. I would highly recommended Steph's online coaching!"

"Steph is Amazing! Best massage therapist/sports therapist/trainer I've had in years! I'm trained in all aspects of massage/physical therapy so I know what I'm talking about and this woman knows her stuff! Outstanding care and dedication! You will not find a better therapist!"

"Online coaching with Steph has been nothing short of brilliant. Initially I was nervous to do it, as it was a whole new world to me but Steph puts you totally at ease when writing your plan with you, tailoring it to meet your individual needs. She breaks it down and makes the goals achievable - looking at both fitness, food and general health. The weekly check ins are brilliant as Steph gives you feedback which is constructive and pushes you to achieve your goal. Online coaching holds you accountable for your actions and allows you to learn how to really create lifestyle changes which have a huge impact. My fitness, health and mental wellbeing has drastically improved, and I still manage to treat myself and have a social life. Steph really does care about her clients and she will become your biggest cheerleader!!"

"Hi Steph! Just wanted to say a massive thank you for everything! I started training with you because I wanted to work on my confidence in the gym, but ended up getting way more out of it than I initially hoped! I've never trained with anyone as knowledgeable and focused on technique - I've learned so much and don't feel nervous about injuring myself. The way you explain WHY form is so important in lifting has really helped me to understand the importance of good form and what to watch out for when lifting. Thank you so much for helping me to not feel so intimidated by machines and weights and to feel so empowered; it's made me a lot stronger physically, but mentally I also a lot stronger and proud of myself."
