Testimonials

I tried Gemma's Piyo class in Shoreham back in 2018, and have trained with her ever since.  I struggle to motivate myself to undertake exercise by myself, so Gemma's group exercise classes are perfect for me.    

Gemma is a great motivator, and makes sure you are challenged and pushed to do your best through encouragement and support, rather than intimidation!  I always look forward to Gemma's classes, even if I am tired and flagging after a day at work, as I know a session led by her will energise me.   

Her classes are varied and fun, and she encourages me to try new things- I wasn't sure that boxercise would be for me, but it turns out I love it!  I feel fit, strong and healthy as a result of training with Gemma, and I'm sure the work I do with her has helped me to improve my cycling and swimming too.   

During the pandemic, her online group classes have been amazing- both to keep me fit and to feel connected with other people, even if we're not in the same room.

"After giving birth to my first baby I suffered from stomach muscle separation (diastasis recti) of 5-6cms. This resulted in a hernia through my belly button and I needed help to lift my new baby and had difficulty walking any distance. I was using my back to compensate for the lack of stomach muscles and had severe back pain. I was also left with around an extra 2 stone in weight. I started seeing Gemma around 4 months after having my baby. A lot of the initial work focussed on rebuilding my core strength, getting the stomach muscles back together and mobilising my back. Gemma gave me exercises to do inbetween our sessions to help speed up the process and after a few weeks I started to notice a big difference. The back pain was going and I was also losing weight. Five months later (nine months after giving birth) I was back to my pre-baby weight and had only a small gap left in my stomach muscles. The back pain was completely gone and I was able to easily lift and carry my (quickly) growing baby. Without Gemma's help I have no doubt that I would still be struggling hugely."
