What Our Clients Say
Really enjoying Matt’s online sessions
After having a baby last year and recovering from several injuries, I needed a kick start to get back training and Matt’s HIIT classes were the perfect start I needed.
Each session is varied yet tailored and Matt encourages everyone to train within their own limits, giving alternatives for the ‘less fit’ amongst us.
Kate Bourne
Client, The Performance Trainer
The best trainer.
Matt is not only hugely knowledgable in many types of training but also hugely motivating.
Matt’s skill and knowledge are second to none, but his personal touch takes his service to the next level. Quite simply the best – cheers Matt!
Tony Marcham

Matt is the best PT …….
Matt is the best PT I have ever had personally train me. He inspires me, motivates me and gives me the confidence to push my fitness to the next level. I’ve never been fitter. I can honestly say that my sessions with him are seriously tough, but they are my favourite time of the week.
