	I can’t thank Amanda enough I am a 73 year old consultant pathologist who has suffered with polioemblysum since the age of 28. This resulted in weakness in all four limbs so my wellness capacity is limited. Despite this I am still working and this is mainly to Amanda’s training and expertise. She rehabs me twice a week and that includes walking outside which I never thought I could do, static exercises in a chair and floor exercises. Earlier this year I had a fall and broke my leg Amanda’s expertise has been instrumental in getting me mobile again, I thought I would not of been able to work again I am due to retire work in December 2008, Amanda was hearing nothing of it and she said to me I will get you back to work by 1st August. Knowing Amanda very well with her drive, motivation and expertise I am happy to say I start back to work on Monday 21st July. Amanda is a top fitness expert with a wide range of expertise relating to her training in this field which she also promotes through her business. I can’t thank Amanda enough.

	Amazed with the progress I have made I have been training with Amanda for nearly two years and have found it hugely beneficial. I do not get much chance for exercise with my job and so this is one way in which I try and keep in shape. Amanda gets the balance just right between pushing me but not driving me so hard that I do not enjoy it. I am amazed with the progress I have made during the time I have been working out with her. She is very flexible and very accommodating - and a thoroughly nice person too!

	Simple and fun At a time when fitness, health and diet has become a complicated and confusing science it is refreshing to find that Amanda promotes the art of keeping fit and healthy as simple and fun. Incorporating common sense and a healthy dose of good humor she works her clients enough to make the sessions count but not so much to put you off exercise for life. With her exercise plans and health regime Amanda gets you back on track and inspires a desire to make simple, effective exercise and healthy eating a part of your day to day life.

	Fast results in re-gaining my shape I really enjoy my weekly training sessions with Amanda. I started training with her 2 years ago, after the birth of my daughter and within a few months regained my pre-pregnancy shape and fitness levels. Amanda then trained me throughout my second pregnancy, which enabled me to manage my weight and fitness, so I felt great! I am convinced this was a key factor in the easy birth of my son and the fast results in re-gaining my shape. Her style is encouraging and supportive, but don't be fooled - she works you hard! I find her motivating and inspiring - she looks fantastic and is therefore a great role model for what she does. I would highly recommend her.

	I am at a higher fitness level than I have been in the last 20 years Amanda has been my trainer about 2 years and I have found her enthusiasm for getting fit and healthy infectious. I was a 49 year old woman: size 22/24, weighing 16 stone and suffering from back pain. When I started with her, I knew I had to do something about my weight and fitness level. I felt too self-conscious to go to a gym or join a group aerobics class. She started me off at a level that stretched me but did not put me off from wanting to continue. She explains the exercises, how to do it and where it would work on and is very patient when I have problems trying to do it right. She gives wonderful encouragement throughout the session. She has tailored the training regime to meet my needs and abilities on a session by session basis. She ensures that I do not do any damage to myself and gradually ups the intensity levels of the sessions to ensure that I can cope. At the end of each session I am amazed at how much we have done in the hour. Her advice on dietary issues has been sound and again realistic. Over the two years my confidence has been boosted and I have got many complements on how well I look. Thanks to her I am at a higher fitness level than I have been in the last 20 years. (Note: 24th August 2006, current weight is 13st 10lbs)

	Have lost my unwanted lumps and bumps! I tried to get fit on my own but lacked the inspiration, motivation and knowledge to maintain a healthy weight loss and fitness programme. Following a recommendation I called Amanda. She transformed the way I approach my training, I feel great, enjoy my workouts and have lost my unwanted lumps and bumps! She is fantastic to work with and has changed my whole attitude to diet and physical conditioning. She is a real professional. Thanks Amanda!

	My progress and improvement has been constant and enjoyable Amanda has been seeing me for more than three years for physiotherapy. I had poliomyelitis in 1962 which left me with weaknesses in all four limbs and the need to adopt a sedentery life style. In the last five years my difficulties have been compounded by the approach of old age so that normal exercises such as swimming became more and more difficult. Amanda's remedial programme has progressed as I have become stronger and her weekly visits include assisted walking and static excercises both on a chair and on the floor. She has introduced progressively more and more difficult routines so that my current programme includes activities that would have been impossible three years ago. Amanda achieves a combination of discipline and encouragement so that my progress and improvement has been constant and enjoyable. Without these sessions I would have been generally weaker and probably confined to a wheelchair.

	Back to my pre-pregnancy weight in just twelve weeks I live in North Wales and was introduced to Amanda by my best friend after I had my second child. I wanted to lose the weight I gained during both my pregnancies. I was quite nervous before we met and thought I might feel a little intimidated by her as she is in such good shape but Amanda is so down to earth she made me feel relaxed straight away. I starting training eight weeks after having a second child. I train with my best friend who has also recently had a baby. I had had my second caesarean and Amanda tailored a fitness plan for me. I was back to my pre-pregnancy weight in just twelve weeks! I could see the changes almost straight away like the areas on the hips at the side, they were starting to disappear! Amanda updates my programme every six to eight week and has even given me tips on eating; what types of food and when to eat them. I am so pleased with my programme, it is a programme I feel confident with as I can already see my results. My best friend and I don't feel it is a chore to train, it is our time without the children and we both feel that the time flies by when we are training.
