Moni is amazing. She's really patient, kind, friendly, professional, personable and encouraging. She is also willing to adapt as necessary to my needs based on my autism, mental health struggles and physical health differences. She will go above and beyond to check in with you and give some nutritional advice if required as well. Wholeheartedly recommend her and will be seeing her for the foreseeable! More...

Moni is a fantastic PT. She has been helping me with my fitness and weight loss goals for just over a month now and I’m already seeing and feeling results. She is so knowledgeable and tailors great varied workouts for me to keep it fun and help ease my hip/back problem. The time whizzes by! Her lovely friendly but firm encouragement is really motivating. She takes the time to explain how each exercise works and offers great advice re diet and supplements too. More...

Moni is great, such a supportive, friendly and patient PT. The sessions are personalised for you. Moni responds so quickly and is extremely reliable. Being a woman in my 40s Moni brings lots of different exercises into the session to build strength and mobility, as well as cardio. I’m finally enjoying exercise! Would fully recommend. More...
Sheena

I have always suffered with back and knee problems, and after trying to work with a few different personal trainers (unsucessfully), I was ready to give up on the idea of having a PT. But I'm glad I didn't! Moni listened to me and fully understood my needs and goals. She has created workouts for me to help prevent knee and back pain, and she is very aware at the pace I need to work at for long term success. She is always continuously ensuring that my posture and breathing is correct and I am confident that with her help I am on my way to a pain free life. She is also such a genuinely lovely and humble person. Highly recommend! More...

Moni is a fantastic personal trainer! For the first time in a long time I feel like I’m looking after myself properly which is thanks to her support. I’ve got fitter and feel so much healthier! The amount I’ve been working out has dramatically increased because of her fun and varied workouts that regularly change so there is no chance to get bored. If you follow her advice you will get results! More...

Moni has significantly helped me on my returning to fitness programme. She designed a programme tailored to me. She is very patient and encouraging- I have never been made to feel that I won't be able to achieve what I want to. She focuses 100% on the goals that have been set. On top of that she is a genuinely lovely person with a kind and caring approach. More...

I’ve been training with Moni for 6 months. Never did I think I would stick at it but I look forward to our sessions every week. She’s got me doing exercises and weights I never thought I could do and I have really noticed a change in my body and especially my posture. She has got me working on my running technique and even taught me to hula! I like how flexible she is on times and location varying the sessions from my home and in the studio she uses and to top it all off Moni is a lovely and caring woman. More...
Brenda Wright
Personal Trainers
Moni has been patient, and understanding of my anxiety to start to exercise again after a long period. As soon as I made contact with Moni I felt at ease and I really appreciate the fact that she understands me and tailors each session depending on how I'm feeling. I would whole heartedly recommend her. I am slowly regaining my confidence thanks to Moni. More...

Moni is first of all a lovely person and an inspiration for any of us. She is highly dedicated and caring and has a remarkable way of motivating you to train harder and push your limits. She is a fantastic trainer, flexible, committed, kind and goal oriented. She is individually assessing every single client to create a personalised plan to fit its profile, needs and goals and she will put all her efforts in obtaining the best possible outcome. In her programmes, Moni incorporates various exercises such as circuit, cardio, weights lifting, yoga, and body stretching to make sure that exercising is not only challenging but also entertaining. I would wholeheartedly recommend Moni! More...
Jake Cleveland
Would highly recommend Moni. For anyone trying to get into training. If it’s for cardiovascular work or muscle toning. Excellent trainer and very friendly!
How important is a healthy diet to someone’s health and wellbeing?
It's of upmost importance. One cannot emphasise it enough: optimal performance is made of 70% diet and 30% training.
How do you help your clients achieve their fitness goals?
By assisting them in setting SMART goals and supporting them throughout to achieve and sustain those goals.
What’s the secret to getting the body of your dreams?
Firstly, the dreams should be realistically achievable. Secondly, I don't think there's a big secret about it. Persistent training, healthy diet, sufficient sleep and disciplined mindset will perfectly cut it.
What do you love most about your job?
I am delighted to see clients' progress and their happiness about their results, and how they grow to love training and being healthy. It does feel as if I'm making a difference. Training people also motivates me to remain active and inspirational, to "walk the talk".
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have landed in the PT world from a totally different business field - I have worked as an Interpreter & Translator for over 20 years. What made me consider this career change at this relatively later phase of life are the sedentary lifestyle that comes with hours-long sitting in a courtroom, police station, law firm etc. and the missing opportunity to really make a difference in people's lives. I was also quite ill with severe sciatica in 2019 and it was a real eye-opening experience: the shocking pain made me realise the importance of being active and healthy. So, I started working out and not only the sciatica has left me, but I noticed an amazing transformation of my body, which I had never thought would be possible! Seeing my result, my neighbour asked me to train her (she was postnatal at the time) and she's been my happy client ever since. All the above have inspired me to study to complete the Lever 3 Personal Trainer course of NASM Premier Global (a worldwide-renown company that teaches trainers) and a Level 4 course for Senior Training last year as well as a Yoga Instructor course earlier this year.
Why should our clients choose you?
I am not a fitness model or an athlete. I am a happy, healthy and active 50 years old woman. I have gone through childbirth x4, stress, trauma, accident, obesity, being sedentary and illness (see above). Thus, I can highly relate to and empathise with your struggles if you have experienced any of these or other things that might have hindered you from being fit and healthy. My strengths, I feel, are being empathetic yet persistent, kind but a bit strict to hold you accountable, and contagiously happy and upbeat to make the process enjoyable!
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
Yes, I can provide training and consultation via WhatsApp, Zoom or Microsoft Teams.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
I did not have to "make changes" as I started this business just last year. All the equipment provided during the session is wiped down with disinfectant prior to and after the session. I also provide hand sanitiser to use it whenever you feel the need for it.
I would not advise you to train in a mask but will ask you to carry out an LFT and I will do the same prior to the first session or if you are going to restart training after a recent infection.
