All fitness is achieved through motivation and encouragement. We recognise that all our participants are intelligent adults who will learn to listen to their bodies.
It is not necessary to go to “boot camps” to get fit . We help you to get fit and then stay fit. Because people find that sessions are fun they keep coming to us. Don’t be fooled though. We may be gentle in our approach but our sessions are built to enable you to achieve the goals you set.
We know that many people do not attend any form of fitness sessions because they are afraid of two things. The first is that they do not look or feel at all sylph like and sporty, or have well defined muscles and others will stare at them. The second is that they feel that they will not be able to manage to complete the tasks they are set, or will be slower than everyone else, or worse still will not be able to cope at all. All our trainers understand these feelings and do their utmost to include everybody and also only ask for what each individual is capable of at any given time.
Our participants are expected to push themselves to their limits. They come to understand what their limits really are. Being uncomfortable or out of breath are obstacles to be pushed through. No-one is expected to push through pain.
Pain is there for a reason. It is giving a message. Real pain is saying STOP.
We treat each person as an individual and because of this we have learned over the years that different time spans will be necessary for each person attempting each exercise. By accepting this we find that it is possible for everyone to excel.
Yes, we work through programs which are probably too much for the newcomers but over the weeks they will work up through the various levels. People do not become fit athletes after one session.
No matter who or what our clients are (or think they are) we have always achieved the goals they have set – provided they keep coming, of course.
