Why on earth would anyone work with a Personal Trainer if you can just “jab yourself slim”?

Training alone has never been THAT great for losing weight…but what it IS great for is helping you become

✅ Stronger and more resilient
✅ Fitter and less fragile
✅ More confident and less anxious
✅ More energy and less moany
✅ Less aches and more experiences

It’ll help you live happier
It’ll almost certainly help you live longer

Ain’t no jab offering all of that anytime soon

And yes I used football goals as a metaphor because reasons 🤣

This is possibly the most important programme we have ever created - and it is now open for registration.

Starting May 6th and running for 6 weeks - our Curious Confidence programme will change the lives of kids (and their families) forever

Your child will get access to a weekly training session with us - helping them not just get fitter and stronger - but helping them to feel inspired.

Your child will have a Daily journal to complete - which allows them to explore who and what has had a positive impact on them each day, how their activity and food impacts their body - and give them the best understanding EVER of themselves.

You will get a journal too - giving you the very best insight into how your own language and behaviour can be a superpower for empowering your child to see exercise isn't just reserved for the P.E loving sporty kids.

We will run groupings of:

Years 3-4
Years 5-6
Years 7-10 (Boys only)
Years 7-10 (Girls only)

And there will only be 6 spaces per group so that we can support each child and family to the highest level - Giving both your child AND you the feedback on a weekly basis that allows you to have the very best experience possible.

The programme fee, days, times etc can all be found on this link:

https://forms.gle/zFpajv8Jy3Nhn4Hk7

This isn't going to be run on a first come first served basis - we will only accept registrations from parents/carers who are fully committed to completing their journal alongside their child.

Welcome to the first stage of getting your child fitter, stronger and more confident. Completing this form does not commit you to the programme - however it allows us to understand how we might be able to help you. Upon completing the form we will be in touch the same day (for submissions after 8pm....

Saw this online and wanted to get one branded for where we have our body scanner…but as always we had to put a “Curious spin” on it 🤣

Happy Friday*

Our kids programme isn’t just going to be about exercise…

So far, the feedback on the launch of our programme for kids has been unreal—and almost sad, because it shows how something like this is so desperately needed for some kids and families.

A massive part of the programme—alongside some great training—is this journal.

Each day, over the 6 weeks, both the child and adult will complete a 5-minute task that helps everyone identify:

What I have done positively for my body today

What I have done positively for my mind today

Who I have positively impacted

Who has positively impacted me

(There’s more, but that would be giving away too much for now!)

It would be easy to run a simple “drop and run” session where I could teach your kids how to do a burpee. But with the way the world is today, I am incredibly keen to help kids and families grow strong minds, stronger self-belief, stronger self-awareness, and, of course, a stronger body.

Make no mistake—this programme won’t be easy…

But nothing life-changing ever is.

Introducing our second new programme - Icons

Due to the immense feedback we’ve received on the stories we’ve shared about Chris training his 95-year-old client, we’ve finally had time to formalise how a truly innovative and inspiring program can be put together for people aged 65+ who want to sharpen their body and mind

Traditional programs for people aged 65+ focus on flexibility and heart health, which is fantastic—but they leave so many vital physical skills on the back burner.

Our very unique program works on areas such as:

✅ Reactions and Reflexes – Whether it’s emergency braking or stopping a fall, we’ll help make your mind-to-body connection faster and more capable.

✅ Flexibility and Mobility – Aches, pains, and “feeling old” aren’t fun, but they also don’t have to be normal or just “the way it is.” We’ll work to make your whole body easier to move.

✅ Strength – Sure, we might not turn you into a magazine cover model, but strength training is vital for your muscles, bones, blood flow, and even your brain. Getting the right weight and choosing the right exercises for your body isn’t easy, which is why we lean on decades of experience to make the right choices for how each person is set up.

✅ Heart and Lungs – Ultimately, a healthier heart and lungs are key to keeping you on this planet longer. We won’t expect you to run a marathon after just two sessions, but we will progressively improve your capacity to live with more health.

Our Icons programme runs over 6 weeks and will go live later in April - with 8 spaces becoming available in intake 1.

Wow! What an amazing response!

After receiving amazing feedback on yesterday’s announcement that we’ll be running a confidence programme for kids, I wanted to share more about why this programme is happening (and also clarify what it’s NOT going to be).


Alongside their training sessions with us, each child will be given a journal that they’ll complete daily for six weeks covering positive mindset, healthy eating and health building behaviours

The journal will include questions designed to help them see themselves as powerful, identify things (and people) that positively impact them, and recognise who they have a positive impact on as well.


As girls approach their teen years, body image and negative social expectations on how a girl “should” look and behave can have an enormous impact on how they grow up and who they become as adults.

I want to help them see themselves as amazing and capable, and allow them to explore the idea that how they look is less important than how they feel.

For the boys, I believe it’s clear that having positive role models is vital. the trouble is - most people teaching or coaching them in PE or sports is focussed on what everyone can do, rather than simply question “Is this boy succeeding and how can we help him shine?”

This programme also helps them view themselves as powerful and strong, but it will also teach them how to use their growing strength to cultivate a mindset that is conscientious, kind, and self-aware enough to see the impact they have on others, as well as the impact others have on them.

This is a six-week programme that I firmly believe has the power to change how your child views themselves for the rest of their life.

It will inspire them to see what their body is capable of and how powerful they can be, both physically and mentally.

If you’re interested and want to know more, please message us. We are only taking on 8 girls and 8 boys, with the programme starting on 28th April.

We are so pleased to announce the of 3 new services coming to Curious (this one starts after the Easter holidays and will run for 6 weeks)

It’s now more common than ever for children, teens and young adults to be completely left behind by tradition P.E and sports options

Hundreds of local kids who don’t fit the physical or social norms of ‘being sporty’, playing for a team, or being physically ‘good at something’ - are missing out on the amazing benefits of being active, fit, and strong because they just can’t get motivated by sports or PE

So we are setting out on a mission to get Kids and Teens into our gym to get fit, strong and confident - achieving amazing things with their bodies and minds and being celebrated for what the CAN do.

With sessions delivered in a child-first approach and fully DBS compliant - we will take your child and help them become a stronger, healthier and more confident version of themselves - as well as inspiring them to make better choices with their nutrition and healthy habits. 

We will be keeping our boys and girls sessions separate as a response to customer and child feedback, and each child and family will be invited to speak with us before starting to ensure that this is the right place and we are the right people for your Childs physical development and confidence.

What's the big difference between having a coach vs going it alone?

Let's imagine you've taken your kids to play in a football team, but instead of having a coach, you just let the kids take training and organise the games themselves. Can you imagine how that might end up?!

What's the difference between trusting a coach or just winging it and seeing how it goes?

Now imagine you've let your kids join a football team but each week a different parent has to take training and organise the matches

Sure - both scenarios probably could work. In a few rare cases it may even be ideal

But in many most cases working with a coach will get you where you want to be much faster

Trusting a single voice means you get focus and direction

Having an expert on your side means you get the right plan and the accountability to see it through

And choosing the right coach means you have a person with you who tries to create enjoyment and positive outcomes

It’s actually the worst part of the summer for many kids and many parents

Kids starting to stress about going back to school. 

Parents trying to keep a lid on their kids emotions AND deal with the absolute minefield of emotions that will come from being partly happy that the kids are going back to school so their lives can become more organised again, and the little bit of sadness that comes from them not being around so much

If you have (like many people) spent the summer spinning various plates, then you will love what we have planned for September. Good news is inbound!
