Callum Leaver

Personal trainer

Hi I'm Cal! I think training is the best way to improve our sleep, mental health, confidence and energy levels - training has helped me in the past with many of these! This is the most important reason why we should exercise!

I love coaching Small Group and 1-1 Personal Training as I enjoy seeing people work together with a smile on their faces, as well as being able to tweak a session to each persons specific needs!

Training should be fun and not a chore, which is why getting the most out of each session and having a laugh every minute is the way forward to enjoying training!
