"Seeing the weight-loss and fitness benefits my husband had gained from working with Dave, I decided to sign up for personal training sessions too. I had been suffering from a long-term shoulder injury and was desperate to return to full fitness but anxious about re-injuring my shoulder. In our initial consultation, Dave assessed the extent of my shoulder and any prior injuries, listened to my fitness goals and designed a fantastic programme that had me back to full fitness very quickly. I have been working with Dave for almost a year now and he constantly adapts my exercise programme so I continue to progress in terms of cardio-vascular fitness and body tone. Also, I really enjoy my sessions in the gym with Dave; he somehow manages to push me to reach new levels of achievement and make it fun at the same time."

"I have trained with Dave Fletcher since March 2005. I had just damaged by back again while skiing as well as tearing a small muscle in the connected areas to my back. After going through physiotherapy, etc, it was clear that I needed to improve my physical fitness as well as my strength, and in particular my core strength. I met with Dave at my local health club and we devised a plan to address these issues. This also included learning boxing and kick boxing which I have found to me extremely rewarding. I have worked out with Dave 2-3 times on average per week since then. In combination with this, I have also changed my dietary habits and lost 10 pounds. My workouts with Dave vary from boxing, kickboxing, running, weights, stretching and core strength. I have found Dave to be extremely knowledgeable, great to work with and with nothing but the most positive of attitudes. I would (and have) recommended him to people."

"I have been training with Dave for several months now working on speed and power in my punching and kicking. Working rounds has proved to be one of the toughest exercise regimes I've ever tried and so it has provided a focus for the rest of my fitness and strength training. Dave has a very good grasp on how hard to push, so rounds tend to finish between the point where I want to stop and the point where I have to stop. I am pleased with the progress I have made. My punching has improved a lot and I am now able to pull off some long combinations which would have given me a lot of trouble before. Dave has also spent a lot of time working on my core strength through a lot of abdominal work. This has helped greatly making my whole body stronger both for punching and kicking. I thoroughly recommend this type of training as it is not only great fun, it is a fantastic way to achieve your fitness goals."

"I've been training with Dave for just over a year and the results have been staggering! I have been training on my own my entire life, and until I met Dave, I thought I was relatively fit, however, kickboxing and gym work with dave has taken my endurance, strength, muscle tone and flexibility to another level. I feel leaner, faster and more powerful than I have my entire life. Dave's ability to motivate and his kickboxing expertise are second to none, on top of that, he is one of the better people I know!"

"I started to work with David in November 2006 when I realised that I was over-weight and very unfit. I found Dave from a recommendation through the Aegis studio and have to say that I have been very impressed with both. I started training with David with two aims, both to lose weight and working to improve my running fitness to race at 5k, 10k and half marathon distances. Over the time I have trained with David these goals have changed as various targets have been bettered with subsequent aims to improve my muscle strength and tone.

David introduced me to a way of fitness that I had never seen before, based on an all body workout utilising a number of muscles at one time rather than the workouts that I and other gym-goers often follow blindly using machines that train one muscle group at a time.

I had never imagined that sessions would start with light plyometric stretching and warm up exercises which then move on to targeted programmes working on various muscle groups as determined as to the relevant stage of my programme. The session always ends with a specific sports stretch which is often very needed….

I would describe David’s approach to fitness to be very holistic one. He has been a great source of knowledge on all aspects of fitness, nutrition, musculature, programmes and has become a friend and counsellor along the way.

Dave has given me the power and ability to increase my knowledge base and given me the springboard to learn more in my own time. David has enabled me to set and also surpass my personal goals in weight loss, muscle tone and strength and improved race and sports performance. All in all it has been a life changing period working with Dave."

"I have been training with Dave for 3 years now . During that time my fitness has improved dramatically and continues to improve.  Dave continually pushes me to greater effort with a varied and interesting series of work-outs which are always tough but achievable.  I will be 60 this year and my training objective is to stay as fit as possible for as long as possible.  Working with Dave has helped me achieve this - in fact when I had my annual medical last month all of the indicators matched those of someone 20 years younger. That's a real tribute to my trainer!"

"Dave has been an essential element in my development as a martial artist. Dave takes the time to understand my training goals and creates personalised programmes that are regularly updated based on my progress.  He is very happy to fit around the demands of work and life style and will factor in diet, body type and frequency of training into the programmes to ensure that your training objectives remain achievable.   

Dave is very supportive at each session and is very happy to share his wealth of knowledge; you are left fully informed of the purpose of each exercise and its impact on the body.

Dave has also helped to enhance my jujitsu by working with me on an excellent kick boxing programme that leverages his knowledge and success in this area.  Not only has this has helped to accelerate my progress and improve my art, it has added to improving my overall fitness. 

Dave is passionate in all his work, the consummate professional and is highly recommended"
Bruce Jennings



"My goal when starting to work with Dave in January 07 was to achieve a gradual weight loss over a year; to improve strength, flexibility and endurance; and to generally feel better.  This has been a challenge in the context of my 50 something year-old's road warrior life.

Dave has proven very adept at pushing me just hard enough and achieving early improvements in flexibility, weight loss, and general well being. A good routine to work with on my own when time permits has helped me maintain the improvements already made.  A heavy travel schedule has interrupted progress over the summer months.

Dave is a sensitive and intuitive trainer, someone I would recommend to anyone in need of reversing the effects of middle age and a demanding travel schedule."
