Client Testimonials

"Training with Jan has been fantastic! I am a 51 year old busy working mother and daughter, and never been into training previously. With Jan, I have become so much stronger and fitter, and feel braver and more able to cope with the stresses of life. She is really expert and tailors the training really carefully. She got me super strong for my first skiing holiday in 20 years, and thoroughly prepared me for running a race for the first time to raise money for Alzheimers Society. She is also a lovely person to talk to and I really enjoy my sessions with her. I recommend her wholeheartedly."

Ros, Shelley

"Jan is amazing!! I've been training with her nearly 2 years and she has helped me get stronger, fitter and helped me achieve goals I would have never thought possible, including completing Tough Mudder in 2019. She keeps training sessions fun and interesting, with a wide variety of exercises. She manages to push me and the limits of my fitness, without completely breaking me. But better than that, she is also a genuinely lovely person to spend time with, and I look forward to our sessions each week. *Fingers crossed* after this review she goes easy on me tomorrow ;)"

Danielle, Brockholes

"An amazing trainer! I signed up with Jan, as someone who has never exercised, and as a 40 something, had a shocking back from previous childbirths, and complications associated to that. Jan did a health assessment, made sure I was completely committed, food assessment, developed exercises specifically targeting the areas I needed the most help with, and we booked in for a session at her home gym. I was nervous but she explained and demonstrated every exercise as we went along...and it was hard, don't expect her to go easy! But over the weeks and months I've gotten fitter my back issue has improved massively and I class her as a friend, we have a natter as I puff my way through the workouts! I would highly recommend her as a trainer."

Cheryl, Meltham

"Been training with Jan for just over a year now. She is fantastic! I've seen massive improvements in my fitness and strength since I started training. She plans sessions to my specific requirements and adapts them when I've got a race coming up. She also supports me with my nutrition. During lockdown, she has even trained me over Skype and has kept me in shape throughout. She is super flexible with timings to help me fit training into my working week. Her sessions are also very competitively priced. Can't recommend her enough!"

Beth, Holmfirth

"Jan is inspirational she keeps my motivation high and supports me physically, mentally and emotionally. Weight has been an issue not putting it on, no, just losing it?? Training is tailored to my needs and likes. And she pushes me every week. Love my weekly training fab PT. Thank you Jan you're brill."

Christine, Thongsbridge

"Jan has worked with us in person before Lockdown and has continued online throughout Lockdown. She provides varied workouts , changing the moves each week which keeps it interesting. The level has been tailored to our fitness too and we have seen progress we are pleased with! We are really not natural fitness enthusiasts, but her friendly manner , enthusiasm and interesting workouts been a real boost to our life."

Sally & Simon, Holme

"Excellent, cannot praise her enough! Knows her stuff and a very good trainer! Would recommend sessions with Jan to anyone! Every workout she has tested and tried to make sure it is suitable for me, each exercise routine gets better and better! 5 stars."

Macauley, Scissett

"Jan is a fantastic PT. She has helped me get ready quickly for a half marathon (when I really wasnt going to be ready on my own), then for my wedding. She works to goals that we set together, mixes up workouts, and pushes me just enough. She's full of suggestions and tips and stays in touch to help keep me motivated. She also has a wicked sense of humour and really makes sessions fun. I never thought id be a PT person, but I've been going to Jan for 6 months now and definitely plan to continue. Highly recommended! Thanks Jan."

Alice, Holmfirth

"Writing a review of Jan has to be timed well. If you asked me for a review toward the end of a 'bike cardio' session or on the 5th sprint up Slaithwaite Road, I would be asked to wash my mouth out with soap. An hour later, or on jumping out of bed the next morning, you would find me beaming from ear to ear and so very thankful that Jan pushed me that little bit harder and didn't allow me to give up too early. She has destroyed the complacent me and replaced me with someone driven and determined."

Catherine, Meltham

Hi , I am a 68 year old pensioner who although I did some exercise was not very fit. After working with Jan now for almost 3 months I feel so much stronger and fitter so if she can help me at my age she can help anyone. P.S. I actually quite enjoy it but don't tell her!

Pat, Scissett

"I've loved training with Jan. Although I had some level of fitness, I wasn't focused or organised with my training. I'd also lost my mojo! Jan gave me a fitness programme that was tailored to my fitness and she knew when I could do more. My fitness came a long way in a short time as jan helped me to realise my potential. I'd more than recommend Jan to anyone."

Sue, Meltham

Jan has been absolutely amazing as a personal trainer. I suffer from various joint conditions including hyper mobility and she has spent time developing a specialised programme for me to follow, which has enabled me to build core strength without me finishing up on the floor in a heap at the end of a session - which was generally the case before! I'm feeling so much better now and her encouragement and constant development of the exercises I'm doing, have also kept me on track and motivated - previous gym memberships were a waste of good wine money! Jan's a hard task mistress, but brilliant at what she does and since she comes to my house to do my classes there's no excuses anymore.......

Valda, New Mill

"Best thing I ever did!!!! The idea of working out in the comfort of my own environment rather than a gym really appealed to me. Jan is very focused on helping me achieve my goals and makes every session challenging. I never thought I would enjoy exercise as much as I do now (it's almost fun) I really look forward to my weekly sessions. Jan always leaves me feeling very motivated and knackered!!! Thank you Jan."

Karla, Newsome

"From my very first PT session Jan has always planned a fantastic programme for me, tailored exactly to my needs. She also gave me in depth information about my diet and how to improve it. 4 months down the line and I feel amazing. Yes, it sounds like a cliche, but its true. I eat healthily, I am putting on muscle and I love going to the gym. I even attend some week nights on my own, which I used to believe I would never ever do. Jan contacts me regularly to make sure I am keeping well and eating properly. I cannot stress enough how much this has changed my life. I am so pleased I made the decision to work with Jan. I no longer skip meals, I eat healthy food that I enjoy (yes it is possible) and I am becoming more and more proud of my body.

For each session I attend, Jan sets realistic and effective goals with a full programme meticulously tailored for me and what I need , but also for things that I want to get out of it. It is hard work, but Jan has the ability to push me to achieve my targets. Thank you Jan."

Damien, Holmfirth

"Jan is an absolute fab PT she got me back into shape 2 years ago and I've just started back at my first PT session today. She will push you when you think you can't do more she always plans sessions with exercises/circuits that she knows would suit you and actually enjoy. If you're like me and you do exercise/circuits you don't like and would just give up too easily, Jan makes it fun enjoyable. A few swear words may slip my lips but I know she means well and gets me to where I want to be."

Lisa, Newsome

"This review is long overdue!!! I trained with Jan for about 2 months twice a week. My specific aims were fat loss, muscle gain, increased cardio fitness and correct form in the gym. Jan helped me achieve all these things and helped to make working out part of my weekly routine not a chore. I got workout plans for the sessions and then Jan made ones for me to do on my own. If you are on the fence I'd say go for it, having a trainer is the best decision I made as it helps keep you accountable and you learn that slogging you ass off on cardio machines is not the way. I was fed up of being either skinny fat or slightly overweight. Now I have some strength. Don't expect miracles if you don't workout yourself aswell. Progress is not meant to be super fast."

Steffi, Honley

"Would totally recommend Jan as a trainer, she helped me work on my fitness at a level I was happy with while encouraging and motivating me to always take it 1 step further!"

Emma, Newsome

"I've been going to the gym for a while but I knew I wasn't really pushing myself because I really had no idea what I was doing - that's where Jan came in! She gave me the kick up the backside that I needed to really push myself during a workout and has also given me a bunch of knowledge about the equipment and which muscles are being used when doing an exercise. I feel much more comfortable and confident when going to the gym now because I actually know what I'm doing! I'd recommend Jan a thousand times, she's amazing! Thank you!"
