strength training
  • Builds strength & muscle tone
    Helps you feel stronger in everyday life, from lifting shopping bags to climbing stairs or carrying children.

  • Boosts metabolism
    Muscle tissue burns more energy than fat, meaning strength training burns more fat, faster

  • Improves bone health
    Resistance training helps strengthen bones and significantly reduces the risk of osteoporosis as we age.

  • Supports joint stability & posture
    Strong muscles protect joints, improve balance, and help reduce aches caused by poor posture or sedentary lifestyles.

  • Increases energy & fitness
    Regular strength sessions improves endurance, stamina, and overall physical performance.

  • Helps healthy ageing
    Maintaining muscle mass is one of the biggest predictors of mobility, independence, and quality of life later on.

plyomterics
  • Plyometric training is explosive, athletic movement designed to improve power, speed, and reaction time. Think jumps, bounds, hops, explosive step work, and dynamic movements that teach the body to generate force. Improves power & explosiveness
    Helps your muscles produce force faster, improving athletic performance and everyday movement.

  • Boosts cardiovascular fitness
    Plyometric exercises raise the heart rate quickly, giving both strength and cardio benefits in one session.

  • Enhances agility & coordination
    Quick directional changes and reactive movements improve balance, body control, and coordination.

  • Increases speed & reaction time
    Trains fast-twitch muscle fibres, helping the body react and move more efficiently.

  • Supports fat burning
    High-intensity explosive training increases calorie expenditure during and after exercise for up to 48 hours

  • Strengthens bones, muscles & connective tissue
    Impact-based movements builds resilience through muscles, tendons, and ligaments.

  • Keeps training engaging & energetic
    Fast-paced, varied movements create a motivating atmosphere that feels more dynamic than traditional steady exercise.

Benefits of Stepping Up in Exercise

  • Strengthens legs, glutes, and core muscles

  • Improves balance, coordination, and stability

  • Enhances cardiovascular fitness when performed continuously

  • Supports joint function and functional everyday movement

  • Helps develop single-leg strength and muscular endurance

  • Burns calories and contributes to overall fitness goals

  • Low-impact variations make it suitable for many fitness levels

  • Mimics real-life movements like climbing stairs, improving daily mobility

hiit

Burns a lot of calories in less time
HIIT alternates short bursts of intense effort with brief recovery periods, which lets you get a strong calorie burn in 15–30 minutes—often comparable to longer steady workouts.

2. Boosts metabolism (even after you finish)
After a tough HIIT session, your body keeps burning calories as it recovers—a phenomenon called “afterburn” (excess post-exercise oxygen consumption) for up to 48 hours after.

3. Improves cardiovascular health
HIIT can raise your VO₂ max (a key measure of aerobic fitness) and strengthen your heart, often as effectively as traditional cardio.

4. Helps with fat loss while preserving muscle
Compared to long-duration cardio, HIIT is better at maintaining lean muscle while reducing body fat, especially when combined with strength training.

5. Improves insulin sensitivity
Regular HIIT sessions can help your body regulate blood sugar more efficiently, which is beneficial for metabolic health.0

boxing
  • Cardio fitness: Boxing is intense, boosting heart health and endurance.

  • Strength & muscle tone: It works your arms, shoulders, core, and legs all at once.

  • Weight loss: High-calorie burn makes it great for fat loss.

  • Coordination & balance: Punch combinations and footwork sharpen body control.

  • Speed & agility: You develop faster reflexes and movement.

    Mental Benefits

    • Stress relief: Hitting a bag or doing drills can release tension effectively.

    • Improved focus: Learning combinations and defensive moves requires concentration.

    • Confidence boost: Progress in skill and fitness builds self-belief.

    • Discipline: Training routines demand consistency and effort.

      Practical Skills

    • Self-defense: Boxing teaches timing, distance, and striking basics.

    • Situational awareness: You learn to read movement and react quickly.

Class content and a bit about me

I possess over 35 years experience . From training semi professionally as an event rider, a rower (3 & 4s), and a sprinter. I trained as an Army Officer, serving front line in the Middle East.

I started my formal fitness education at 16, continually furthering my unique knowledge throughout my entire career. I work closely with three other field professionals, a local physiotherapist, chiropractor and a women’s health GP who owns two surgeries in Bath. This is to keep myself at the forefront of the industry, fully up to date with significant fitness and health changes, model adaptations, industry challenges and the introduction of new forms of exercise.

All my groups from open sessions to private group personal training, are unique in their content. People come to me not just because of my wide ranging experience but because of the variation I offer. Exercising can be tough, mundane, and both difficult to start and sometimes equally hard to maintain. However, with my classes, I continually adapt to people’s strengths, likes and pace. Keeping everyone involved, working at their individual optimum capability. Ultimately making the sessions fun, engaging and offering a sense of accomplishment.

Joining one of my classes, you will be guaranteed to make friends. Everyone is welcoming, helpful, full of enthusiasm and support for others.

You can expect 100% support, encouragement and importantly you will achieve results. All whilst having great fun, and learning new skills.

If you’re tired of the same old routines, repetive workouts, lack of connection with others in the class or gym and simply feeling like you’re just showing up and going home, then join my classes. We lift more than weights, we lift eachother!

why should you bother…

Each and every one of my classes

  • engages every muscle group simultaneously, stimulating neuromuscular adaptations which form substantial muscle growth

  • throughout the course of the workout you will burn an impressive 1000 calories per hour as minimum

  • my session increase your VO2 (your aerobic capacity), not just oxygen to such a level that you become fitter and stronger in a shorter time, raising your metabolic rate, therefore burning calories for over 48 hours after your class

your comfort zone is cozy but it wont help you in the long run
