‘Karen put together a programme which took into account my fitness level, (or lack of it) and built my fitness up gradually without being scary. In four months, I've gone from a total non-runner to three half hour running sessions a week, and my resting heart rate has dropped by 40 bpm and I feel and look better.’

S Gibbs, Leicester

‘Karen is an excellent motivator and is brilliant at explaining why you should follow her guidelines. I felt much fitter, stronger and sleeker after only a couple of weeks even though I was already a regular gym user. Karen makes you put that bit extra in which makes so much more than a 'bit' of difference.’

J Egner, Leicester

‘Karen is an excellent personal trainer; she is enthusiastic and always focused on you as the client. I no longer have to wonder whether I am doing the right things to get better in my chosen sport – cycling. She ensures that you work to the best of your ability and with the help of her positive attitude I have found that I can achieve far more than I expected during my one-to-one sessions.’

S Robinson, Nottingham

‘Karen is a highly effective trainer, she really makes an effort to understand what a client needs and what they like. Rather than make it a torturous process, she takes the trouble to find exercises that a client likes............and which work! Sessions are highly enjoyable, but make no mistake - slacking off is strictly not allowed!

I asked Karen to provide me with (and get me to stick to!) a programme which would help me lose three and a half stone I had gained after having a baby and get me back to my pre-motherhood level of fitness. My fitness level is now in the 'excellent' category and I am almost at my target weight - I know that I'll get there with Karen's continued commitment and a bit more hard work on my part!’
