A word from the Director

Redefining Fitness was created in 2020 by myself and Sam Lynch.

We created the company after working for most of the big training providers in the UK and not being happy with the way things were being delivered.

We set out on a mission to create an unparalleled student experience and to consistently deliver top-tier customer service for our students and collaborators, redefining the meaning of fitness.

We’ve done that by creating a state-of-the-art online learning platform that caters for all learning styles, a high-spec video library for exercises and by creating a syllabus that goes the extra mile, where most of our competition stops.

By doing that, we won Fitness Training Provider of the Year at the Prestige Awards in 2023 for South East England as well as listed 93rd in the Elite Business Awards Top 100 SME’s in 2024. I also was listed in the Brainz Magazine Global 500 Shortlist for Entrepreneurs in recognition of our service towards others.

Our goal is to radically transform the standard of the fitness industry, starting with aspiring and hungry students who want to help others become the best versions of themselves.
