“When I first set out to find a PT I was very nervous, I hated going to the gym and always hated sport at school! I wanted to work towards a goal of being all-round generally fitter, to feel healthy and tone up my body; it wasn’t about weight loss for me. It was about making a change that would be sustainable for the longer term.

When I found Carolyn she listened to those goals and supported me to create sessions that would motivate me, but also push me hard enough. I quickly believed in myself and over time started to see some fantastic results. She’s quite simply amazing!”

“I started 1:1 training sessions with Carolyn as I had signed up to run my very first marathon and to say I was nervous was an understatement. I needed to get my core and legs stronger and Carolyn had been highly recommended to me. I have never enjoyed going to the gym, but I always looked forward to my sessions with Carolyn. She was incredibly professional and every session was different. Carolyn was always watching my form and making sure I was doing each exercise correctly.

In addition to the sessions Carolyn e-mailed me pre- and post-run stretches, as well as nutritional advice and recommendations about fuelling for long runs and during the marathon itself. She was a huge source of information. Carolyn gave me confidence in myself that I would and could complete the London Marathon. She went above and beyond. I have and will continue to highly recommend her.”

“For several months I was experiencing back problems and as time passed I found that my mental health was also starting to worsen as I was being less and less active. Any motivation I did have to exercise was rapidly evaporating. I was also becoming self-conscious of my own body as my overall fitness deteriorated.

Right from our first meeting I really felt at ease and confident that Carolyn knew what she was talking about. She listened to my concerns and what I wanted to achieve. She was genuinely interested in helping me get back to a more active life and I was treated as an individual, not just 'another client' to be seen. Carolyn also provided me with, and encouraged me to practice some simple exercises at home on my own to help me on my journey! With the right balance of motivation and ignoring my occasional 'huffing and puffing' under my breath, Carolyn succeeded in improving my strength, flexibility and stamina resulting in my self-confidence returning. I am now able to lead a more active life and generally feel reinvigorated.”

“I have been training regularly with Carolyn for over 3 years. She is an excellent Personal Trainer who builds a customised program of training sessions based on one's capabilities and training objectives. Over the years she has helped me improve my overall strength and has helped me with strength and conditioning to prepare for a number of endurance sporting events and races.

Most recently Carolyn helped me recover from a serious injury to full fitness by focussing on core strength. Her sessions are always challenging, but the results are second to none!”

“I was introduced to Carolyn following months of treatment for RSI in my shoulder. Carolyn was able to devise a series of shoulder & core exercises to help strengthen the area and also provided me with a detailed Exercise Programme which I could work on at home between sessions using minimal equipment. Within the first few weeks I could feel a difference in my level of pain and movement as we had managed to support and stabilise the area previously causing so much discomfort.

During our sessions, Carolyn was patient when I got things wrong or wanted to give up and helped me improve my technique through correction and hands on demonstration. I found Carolyn to be friendly and professional, sympathetic but firm and would have no hesitation in recommending her as a Personal Trainer. In fact, if I won the lottery I would pay Carolyn to come to the gym with me to and get me back in shape all over!”

“Having followed treatment at Pulborough Osteopathic Clinic, I was recommended to see Carolyn to follow up with a 6 week programme on Core Strength training for my back injury. Carolyn was excellent; she was fully prepared with an understanding of the osteopathic treatment I already had and had a personalised programme outlined for me, with exercises to follow up at home.

Carolyn is an empathic listener, works hard for her clients and is always at the end of the phone or email if you have any queries. I highly recommend Carolyn without reservation.

Make that call, you won’t be disappointed!”
