Fitness Entrepreneurship: In 2015, I embarked on my fitness journey by opening East Coast Fitness, my first Personal Training studio, nestled at Seaham Harbour Marina. Today, I continue to run invigorating boot camps and work closely with personal training clients, tailoring workouts to their individual needs.
Recognised Excellence: My dedication to fitness excellence was recognised early on when I was shortlisted for the Small Business of the Year and Leisure Award at the Sunderland Echo Portfolio Awards in 2015. In the following years, East Coast Fitness secured the Sole Trader of the Year title, an honour we retained in 2017. In 2018 and 2019 we went one step further and won Health & Lifestyle Business of The Year! These accolades motivate me to continually evolve my fitness expertise and expand the horizons of our fitness community.
From Football to Fitness: My fitness journey began as a professional footballer with Hartlepool United, where I garnered valuable experience in exercise, nutrition, and body optimisation. My football career was cut short due to injury, but I transformed my passion into a profession by becoming a certified personal trainer.
Globetrotting Expertise: A pivotal chapter of my journey took me to Dubai, where I worked in a bustling fitness centre. Over a year, I conducted over 1000 personal training sessions and helped hundreds of people from all around the world reach their fitness aspirations. The invaluable knowledge gained in Dubai accelerated my expertise, making me a more effective fitness coach.
Luxury Fitness at Seaham Hall: My journey led me to Seaham Hall Hotel and Serenity Spa, a prestigious 5-star establishment, where I served as a gym manager and personal trainer. Here, I initiated my first boot camp, which rapidly gained popularity. My commitment to excellence was once again recognised in 2012 when I received the Leisure Excellence Award from the North East Hotels Association.
