Hi, I'm Kat Merchant
I’ve always been interested in physical exercise and nutrition. This interest led me to do a degree in Sport and Exercise Science as well as becoming a level 3 personal trainer and rugby coach.
So what are you waiting for?
Don’t be scared you are never too unfit to start exercising. Come give it a try and you definitely won’t be disappointed. I look forward to working with you and making your goal my goal.
England
I played rugby for England, scoring 44 tries in my 58-cap international career and winning the world cup. Through representing England I have worked with top of the range EIS Strength and conditioners. I’ve recieved elite nutrition advice and worked with top class sports psychologists. All this knowledge and experience has enhanced my personal training.
Approach
My approach is to inspire clients to realise they can achieve more than they ever thought they could. I adore the positive impact I can have on a clients life. Seeing them become more confident, more positive and physically happier with their bodies. I love sport and exercise and I’m all about high intensity. I work out what you like, be that, boxing, running, and use that to get the best results.
Reach your Goals
Whatever your goal; run a 10km, get into your wedding dress, get fit after giving birth, losing weight or just feeling confident enough to go in the weights section of the gym, I will motivate, support and make you reach your objectives. When a client reaches their goal or has success I am buzzing to I hear about it. I feel proud that all the hard work has been worth it for both of us.
Boot Camps
What could I expect to accomplish by participating in a weekly boot camp? You can expect to increase your fitness, feel brighter and more energetic.

60 minutes
Each boot camp class is just 60 minutes incorporating a warm up with stretches, followed by circuits and cardio with stretches to cool down.
Different fitness levels
The class is spilt up into different fitness levels, so it does not matter if you are new to fitness or a regular. You will be training with like minded individuals who will support you whilst being lead and motivated by Kat.
Variety
Each week the class will be different. All fitness levels are welcome from beginners to advanced, and Kat ensures that the boot camp sessions are tailored so that they are suitable and enjoyable for you.

Personal Training
For me personal training is not just about the session we spend together but also motivating and inspiring you outside our sessions.

Working Together
I know that everyone is different, motivated by different factors. I ensure that the training and nutritional advice will be tailored to your needs, and I offer ongoing support throughout our time together.
Rehabilitation
Even if you have an injury, sessions can be adapted. Anyone can achieve their goals if they are inspired, supported and have fun.
Methodology
A huge part of my methodology is working on the mental as well as physical. Getting the right mind can make all the difference to us achieving your goal. I believe that you need to make exercise interesting as well as physically demanding, and love motivating clients to work outside their comfort zones to get results.
