Heartily recommend him!

Verified client ·

James is a great trainer. Smart and intelligent. And I say this as being important for a trainer because he processes and analyses well rather than just putting someone through the motions. Thorough professional and yet friendly/down to earth. Engages with right mix of encouragement and push!

Review of James

Verified client ·

I’m been trained by James for 2 years. I completely recommend his training to anyone looking to improve their fitness. James does things efficiently and effectively to make the most out of the training sessions. He’s a great guy who genuinely has your best interests in mind. I’m in the best shape of my life and I owe a lot of that to him (I get some of the credit). I have no doubt that he will dramatically improve your fitness if you’re willing to give the effort. You won’t regret it.
