Tom "in a nutshell"

I was born and raised in the North West of England and emigrated to New Zealand in 1994 with my Dutch wife, Kerry and am now a fully fledged 'Kiwi'.

I have been deeply involved in various sporting activities all my life and have trained in gyms in England, The Netherlands and New Zealand for 30 years. I have also ran numerous 10km, 15km and half marathons in New Zealand and overseas, taken part in the 160km Round Lake Taupo Cycle Challenge and in quite a number of 100km cycling events as well as playing squash, tennis and badminton competitively.

I am the world's greatest procrastinator but Tom has lead me into doing a range exercises I really enjoy and inspired me to stick with them long enough to feel the change. It's crunch time for me as I turn 60 next year and if I don't get my body going now its going to be fairly dire in the future.

Tom understands this but he never pushes too hard or lets me get despairing. If you've been a life long non-starter on physical fitness. Tom is definitely "The Man".

Fitness is my passion and I have a desire to work with people of all ages and from all walks of life who are prepared to commit to the challenge of improving their overall strength and fitness. It is fantastic to see the results that my clients achieve, what job can be better than helping someone improve their self-confidence and give them an improved quality of life.

In September 2007 I took part in a cycling challenge to fundraise for Oxfam New Zealand and raised $9,500 for their cause. The challenge was a 435km mountain bike ride through the foothills of the Himalayan Mountains and the jungle of the Yunnan Province in Southern China.
