What Clients Say
I started strength training for my tennis because I noticed my body could not catch up with my reactions. Mentally I wanted to save the ball, but my body would not move.
Six months in, my conditioning is much better when I have to play a longer game, and I have noticed I am hitting harder than before.
I am not an athlete, so I never knew how big a part strength and conditioning plays in sport. Now I can feel it myself.
I started training with Simon just over a month ago, and the experience has been excellent. He began with a thorough assessment to understand my physical condition and identify the areas that needed improvement. He then created a personalized training plan based on my specific needs.
In only one month, I have already noticed positive changes in my body, posture, and overall strength. Simon has corrected many of my movements and taught me how to exercise properly without pain or injury.
Simon is knowledgeable, attentive, patient, and truly cares about his clients’ progress.
Simon is awesome! He’s super knowledgeable, supportive, and really mindful of different body types and limits.
His training has made a huge difference in my posture and overall health, and he always makes sure you’re moving safely.
If you want a trainer who actually listens and gets results, definitely go with Simon!
I have been training with Simon for a year and he’s demonstrated exceptional knowledge and flexibility when it comes to the fitness goals and a person’s physical capacity. He’s helped me achieve my goals in a realistic way, by adjusting training plans accordingly and providing helpful tips on nutrition and workout plans outside of class.
As a newcomer to the gym, I feel a lot more comfortable, confident, and knowledgeable about my personal fitness. And this is all thanks to Simon!
