“James has been providing exercise to our residents who live with a range of disabilities for around 6 years now. James provides fun and energetic classes and engages with the residents in a fantastic, kind, caring and fun approach. This helps to get more residents attending, maybe just for his wit and humour but they do end up enjoying his classes and return to each one after”

After graduating from University in 2009, James started his coaching business and has trained a wide range of clients, from amateur athletes seeking to train for a 10k run or marathon, to young runners and football players seeking to correct their technique and improve fitness levels in order to progress into professional sports careers.

James can provide bespoke running and fitness programmes which offer a high-level of customer service and care to help clients meet their own personal goals, whether you are a beginner or at an advanced level.
