TESTIMONIALS FROM CLAIRE'S CLIENTS
TESTIMONIALS | Hannah In-person Client
​
I'm back running & training in the gym consistently. I’ve gained confidence back in myself and my body. I've had a huge mindset shift around my relationship with food and body image, which I never thought would happen.
The biggest thing has been learning not to be so hard on myself. Learning that it's ok to not be where I used to be but making progress slowly and being consistent has been a huge mindset shift.
Claire is supportive both in and out of my sessions. Regularly checking in and providing support where required. I really enjoy being coached by Claire as I feel I could contact her any day about my coaching.
Claire makes you feel at ease and gives you the confidence to perform lifts you've maybe never done or haven't done in a while. I always leave feeling more motivated than ever for my other sessions. I really enjoy being coached by Claire as I feel I could contact her any day about my coaching
The knowledge Claire has to apply to you individually whether it be for fitness goals, nutrition goals or lifestyle changes is ace! I feel like Claire really wants her clients to succeed in the long term and make real life changes.
I would definitely recommend Claire as a coach for people who want to change their lifestyle as a whole and that aren't just looking for a quick fix.

My time training with Claire has given me a massive shift in self belief. I’ve learned that with the right attitude and people by my side I can achieve whatever the hell I want!
​
Claire doesn’t shy away from asking the difficult questions which can be tough at the time but certainly deliver the biggest step changes in both mental and physical growth.
​
I had a very specific goal of running the Edinburgh Half Marathon and Claire exceeded expectations of support with a full training plan not just the running side but also nutritionally and mentally too.
​
Checking off that goal with Claire by my side cheering me on was MASSIVE for me.
TESTIMONIALS | Elizabeth In-person & Online Client
Claire was able to give me the confidence and encouragement to train that bit harder than I might have on my own in the gym. This was especially true when it came to lifting heavier weights, which is a bit out of my comfort zone.
​
She was extremely accommodating from the start and was able to be flexible with how we approached my training. We discussed what my goals were and she was able to put a plan in place. There was always an alternative! I appreciated that guidance, support and knowledge. She also shares a wealth of nutrition information, which was very interesting and useful.
​
I really like the way Claire gives feedback to clients weekly, with a short video message. It’s nice to see and hear her giving you encouragement & words of advice. It’s a really nice touch, that I’m sure not all online coaches would offer. I also looked forward to our monthly feedback call.​​
Claire is a warm, positive, fun and very knowledgeable coach, with lots of good chat! I’ve certainly learnt a lot from working with her. I would certainly recommend her to friends, who are looking to learn, gain confidence or simply just add a different dimension to their strength training.

​
Claire’s approach to training and nutrition is a global approach and takes into account every individual. She digs in to what is blocking you from achieving your goals and helps to find ways around it.
I was struggling with having lost fitness and strength and gaining weight as a result of difficult pregnancies and finally decided to train with Claire online.
She is a tremendous support. She is dedicated and creative in her individualised approach. With me, given where I am, we are starting small and building in good habits making progress with overall lifestyle and health goals.
I’m so pleased I started this journey with Claire and I would recommend her to literally anyone. She will look at you as an individual and figure out a way to get you back on track with achieving your goals.

​
​I feel very supported. I feel like Claire always has my goals in mind, and is always armed with a work around when bumps in the road show up.
Our sessions are always fun, they make me feel set up for the week. My sessions have become a non-negotiable! Claire is great at helping guide me to always think about the why, and notice the bits that are going well! I learn something every week which makes coaching worth every penny!
​
I’ve definitely become more focused on longevity than on quick fixes. I see the bigger picture, and the purpose. And I actually enjoy the gym now (never thought I’d see the day!…running first though, always).
As someone who was useless at noticing what my body was saying, I feel like I have all sorts of tricks up my sleeve now to sort my form, scale a workout up, scale it down etc, which I was clueless on before.
I can’t think of a person who wouldn’t benefit from working with Claire.

​
Claire made up a training plan for me to workout at home as I have depression and anxiety and some days I struggle to leave the house. She also made a plan for the days I managed to go to the gym.
I stuck to the training and loved it, especially the strength training but also that I could continue improving my running. She checks in with you and makes adjustments if needed, this made me feel accountable for every training session planned.
I really like how Claire explains everything and I love the buzz I get after a training session - she really gets into your head and believes you can do things no matter how out of reach they seem to be. If Claire says you can, believe her, you can. She won’t let you give up.

​
Claire is a very supportive coach. She's encouraging, promotes exercise and nutrition in a healthy way and is generally a lovely person to work with.
Being a runner before and during pregnancy I wanted to make sure I was returning to exercise in the safest way and as a pre/post-natal trainer and a runner herself, Claire was the perfect choice. She helped me build back strength in a safe way whilst also challenging me when she knew I was capable, even if I didn't!
Now as a working mum, I look forward to the hour of my week spent training in the gym, it's an hour to spend working on myself and I always leave grateful and pleased with what I've achieved in the session.
TESTIMONIALS | Danii In-person Client
Claire not only wants the best for your body but she wants the best for your mind too. If every pregnant or post-natal woman had access to Claire the world would be a better place.
Starting with Claire was the best decision. I’ve gone from having no strength at all and basically falling over, to being able to stand on one leg.
​
I started working with Claire after having my third child and embarked on an incredible journey. It’s had a huge impact on my body and life - all for the better. Now Claire is championing me through my fourth pregnancy and is so much more than a personal trainer.
Her gym is certainly my happy place and has become a sanctuary in my week. Don’t worry about falling over or not looking like a “gym bunny” because Claire does everything at your pace whilst being your biggest cheerleader (without the pom poms)... and she falls over too!
TESTIMONIALS | Gregor Online Client
I can’t fault Claire’s approach. She breaks things down in an understandable way.
​
She offers positivity and support. She not only looks at things from a physical aspect but had me looking into my mood and feelings….it made me question my approach to a lot of things.​
