Life-Changing Personal Training with Avril!

Before COVID, I never enjoyed exercise — gyms felt intimidating, and I had no real motivation to keep going. But everything changed once I started working with Avril. From day one, she made strength training fun, empowering, and something I genuinely looked forward to.

Not only did my attitude toward fitness completely shift, but my body did too — my shape has transformed, and I’ve hit all the goals we set together. Avril is consistent, reliable, and always there to answer any questions I had. She offers a fantastic wraparound service, including tailored gym plans that supported and extended our personal training sessions.

What really sets her apart is how personal and supportive the experience feels. Training with Avril is like training with a knowledgeable friend who pushes you to be your best while making the journey enjoyable every step of the way.

When I was diagnosed with angina and had my driving license taken away last year, it was truly devastating. As a former coach driver, not only did I lose a part of my identity, but also my main source of income. The impact on both my physical health and emotional wellbeing was overwhelming.

Working with Avril has been a life-changing experience. From the very beginning, she approached my situation with empathy, professionalism, and an incredible depth of knowledge. Using Bruce Protocol training methods, Avril carefully tailored a program to suit my condition, continuously monitoring my health and progress along the way.

Thanks to her dedicated support and structured training, I’ve not only regained my strength and stamina, but also something even more valuable—my quality of life. I can now enjoy long walks with my wife again, something I thought I had lost. Most importantly, I’ve recently regained my driving license and am looking forward to returning to work and receiving my regular income once more.

Avril continues to support me on an ongoing basis, which gives me reassurance and confidence in my abilities. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone—especially those facing health challenges. She is not only a skilled and knowledgeable trainer but also a genuinely caring person who makes your goals her mission.

Thank you, Avril, for giving me my life back.

As a parent of a daughter currently going through her GCSEs, I know firsthand how stressful this period can be—not just for the student, but for the whole family. It was important to me to find a positive outlet for my daughter, somewhere she could release some of that stress and have time to focus on herself. That’s when we found Avril.

Since training with Avril, my daughter has made noticeable improvements—not just in her physical fitness, but more importantly, in her overall wellbeing. The changes have been remarkable. Our family communication has improved, and what stands out most is her increased happiness and self-confidence.

Avril creates a welcoming and supportive environment, helping her clients feel empowered rather than intimidated—especially in a gym setting, which can often feel overwhelming for younger people. She focuses not just on technique, but on building confidence and resilience, which has had a lasting impact on my daughter.

I highly recommend Avril to anyone looking for a trainer who goes beyond the physical. She truly cares about her clients’ mental and emotional wellbeing, and it shows in the results.

Training with Avril has been fantastic.  I’d hit a bit of a plateau with regular classes and knew I wanted to step things up—but had no idea how.  Avril completely changed that.  She introduced me to a huge variety of gym equipment and exercises I’d never have tried on my own, and pushed me to lift heavier than I ever thought I could.  Her sessions are challenging, motivating and fun.  On top of that, she’s put together a personalised programme for me to follow solo, so now I not only have a plan—I’ve got the knowledge and, more importantly, the confidence to make proper use of the gym.  I thoroughly recommend Avril to anyone looking to take their training to the next level.
