“I am on my second block of sessions with Mark and they are transforming my core strength and stability and markedly improving my flexibility. The sessions are progressive and testing without being over arduous and Mark leads us through each routine with meticulous thoroughness – and keeps things fun and fresh. I have been struggling with an arthritic hip and the sessions have really helped to reduce my hip pain. I can wholeheartedly recommend moving strong and Mark’s expertly prepared sessions.”
Stephen – aged 55
“Mark’s sessions have been great for me personally as I have previously struggled with injuries, aches and pains. As a result of doing the sessions I have felt a lot more mobile and flexible, as well as feeling stronger. The sessions are good fun and I always leave the class feeling good! Sessions are also really relaxed and Mark is extremely supportive, always being available to answer questions, offer advice and it’s amazing to gain an insight from someone so knowledgeable!”
