Ka-Mun Fung: Testimonials

Olivia, 33
Designer, Richmond

“Ka-Mun has been my trusted trainer for the last year and a half. Together we have done both cardio and weight training routines and I find her expertise in all areas both motivating and reassuring.

Ka-Mun is extremely knowledgeable; she is always learning new techniques and methods to help speed up the process and make working out fun and I have had some super results! I would be lost without her weekly guidance and I look forward to our weekly sessions.

On top of that, she has a bubbly personality and is extremely fun to be around. I would whole-heartedly recommend her to any prospective employers or clients.”

Judith, 37
IT consultant, Barnes

“The great thing about Ka-Mun’s sessions is … the feeling you get about 30 minutes after the session.The endorphin kick from having your heart rate constantly raised for the previous hour as you move from weight-loss cardio work to bone-strengthening weights is a natural high. And it lasts a good two days afterwards.

Ka-Mun keeps the pressure up, ensuring that you improve each session, at a pace you can cope with. She does this by taking into consideration your fitness level, your familiarity with the equipment, and your energy levels on the day.”

Jo, 33
Journalist, Richmond

“As an Australian facing my first English winter I found it incredibly difficult to keep up the exercise but with Ka-Mun’s motivation and positive attitude I managed to tone up and lose a few kilos over the winter.

Ka-Mun has an excellent warm friendly style and is creative with her sessions. She challenged me with training sessions that I would never have done on my own and helped me understand my own strengths and weaknesses. My core strength increased significantly and I am now no longer daunted by complicated gym equipment.

Somehow Ka-Mun makes a 1 hour session feel like 15 mins which helps keep you motivated to return for more. Ka-Mun set realistic and attainable goals and developed a programme to reach them. Thanks Ka-Mun!”

Tom Wilcox: Testimonials

Phil, 50
Hotel Manager, Richmond

“Following a total shoulder joint replacement I returned to my twice-a-week personal training regime with a new instructor, Tom for the first in six years. Requiring carefully planned training sessions and attention to the rehabilitation and physiology issues.

He is always punctual, courteous and attends having prepared for the session. He understands the limitations of a new joint and has a true grasp of my goals and fitness aspirations.

With his help and encouragement I am now fitter and better toned than I have ever been and the major surgery is now long behind me. I cannot recommend Tom highly enough.”

Tomas, 36
Director, Twickenham

“I’ve never really had a problem with motivation – I started working out in a gym about 3 years ago and over that time, I noticed a gradual change in the way I looked, but it reached a point where I felt like I was working just as hard as I’d always been and for ages didn’t see any real improvement.

So I decided to seek the help of a Personal Trainer and was recommended Tom by a colleague of mine. I am so glad I picked up the phone that day, because within the first few  sessions, not only has my body started to change shape again, but Tom has educated me far beyond what I previous believed could be learnt about exercise. I couldn’t recommend him more!”

Sarah, 29
Junior Lawyer, Kew

“I was apprehensive at first, imagining a GI Joe turning up at my door and screaming at me for an hour until I cracked… but I had absolutely no need to be nervous. Tom is exceptionally friendly, professional and not intimidating in the slightest. At the time of writing, I have been training with Tom for 10 months, and I have no intention of stopping. Not only has every single session been great fun (honestly!), but the whole experience has been such a positive move for my general state of health, fitness and weight loss.

I lost a stone in the first month alone which ticked the box in respect of my first goal. I had never used a personal trainer beforehand – although I did have several failed gym memberships behind me – every gym as stiflingly uninspiring as the next. This is a really great way of keeping in shape and enjoying the great outdoors. If you had asked me before whether I would find anything rewarding or pleasurable about training at 6.30am I would have laughed … but I do, and I can assure you that I am no gym bunny – I am a very normal 30 something professional who spends a great deal of time behind a desk in the City.

Tom is great on the variety of exercises he chooses which keeps it all new and interesting. He is great at pushing you just hard enough each time to see progress (and feel it the next day or two) but not to go beyond your capabilities.  I cannot recommend Tom enough – it will be one of the best decisions you ever make if you sign up.”

Katie Whittle: Testimonials

Sylvia, Richmond

“I have been receiving one-to-one personal training from Katie for approx. 2 years on a regular weekly basis. In those times, Katie has focused on improving my aerobic capacity and my core strength by exercises designed to work across different parts of my body.  I am in my 40s, work full-time and have four children and Katie is very flexible to accommodate my demanding agenda and will work her appointment times around me.  Whilst sympathetic to not pushing me too hard so I stop coming, she challenges me and ensures that I walk away from sessions having been effectively exercised and makes me work hard. I can’t say I am a great exerciser but with Katie’s help and encouragement, I am not doing too badly! I find her very friendly, supportive and wellprepared. Before each session, she will plan an exercise regime for that session to ensure she works different body areas at each session. We generally have training sessions in the gym but she has also conducted work-outs outside in the park and at my home.”

Sheelagh, Richmond

“Katie’s sessions are tailored to your level of fitness and energy. She keeps you going with encouragement and distraction, and makes the training fun.  You will know about it the next day though!”

Sonia, Richmond

“I have been training with Katie for the last three years as i needed to both lose weight and get fitter and stronger. I train with katie whenever i can usually 2-3 times a week. She has been in great understanding with my needs and training with her is fun and has been helping me get back into shape after another pregnancy.”

Jon Blackburn: Testimonials

Richard, New Malden.

“I am sure you’ve been looking all over the Internet, trying to figure out which one of these professional training individuals in your area you should give a try… Well look not further, if you want bespoke, attentive, creativity and motivation from your trainer then Jon is right for you.

Jon has worked tirelessly to ensure my training sessions have been tailored to my needs and ultimate goals, in turn keeping me engaged and motivated.

He is highly knowledgeable about nutrition, food benefits, eating habits, and how this plays a massive part towards the training regime.

Training outside is a massive plus for me, meaning I can keep myself interested due to all the different possibilities this freedom allows. If you’re wondering if a personal trainer is too extravagant, don’t. Its the most effective way I’ve found to keep me hitting personal goals, and ultimately been fun and enjoyable in the process.”

Sila Kurtoglu: Testimonials

Julian Post, Richmond

“Sila is an excellent trainer. Incredibly knowledgeable with each session tailored specifically to your goals. I started working with Sila to train for a specific event and her help was invaluable so I plan to train with her indefinitely.”

Edward Stembridge: Testimonials

Sarah, Director
Twickenham

“I’ve been training with Ed for a year now and would happily recommend him. He focuses on all areas of fitness, including diet and motivation. He’s all about progress and the workouts get more challenging – it’s really satisfying to see that I can do way more now than I could a year ago.  Unlike other PTs I’ve worked with, he provides varied workouts so it stays interesting. Plus he’s great fun!”

Carla, Manager
Richmond

“I have been training with Edward Stembridge for what will soon be two years .From our initial consultation I have always felt that Ed puts my needs first.I credit Ed with  being the major reason that I have really improved my conditioning over this period of time.Eds experience and approach to training has been beneficial in many ways. At the beginning he was able to assess my condition and challenged me, but avoided putting me through too much pain that I was put off. Ed has then moved me along, without me ever feeling that have had an easy day, he helps me progress with a constant mixture of new exercises and increasing levels of challenge while maintaining a core approach to resistance training. He closely monitors posture and form, and when I slip into poor form he’s quick to get me back on track. On the business side of things Ed has always been there for our appointments and has always accommodated my schedule when I needed to change days or times due to business. Ed has also given me guidance on nutrition and fitness to help me achieve my personal goals. Eds professionalism, knowledge and flexibility set him apart others in his field. His personality and encouragement keep me a loyal client. I would highly recommend Ed without any hesitation”
