Paul helped me achieve my 90 day challenge recently. Although being aware of some knee problems I have, Paul showed me some great alternative ways of using certain muscle groups, kept me challenged each session and showed a high level of expertise in his field by showing me some routines I could continue with when I was not with him. I would recommend Paul without hesitation.

Much more than a personal trainer, so glad I invested my health and fitness development with Paul, he has such in-depth knowledge of the workings of the body and also taught me how to release muscular tension allowing the inner energy to flow throughout the whole. Didn't know it was possible to feel so good, thank you!

Known Paul for many years as he was my first instructor in the martial arts. He genuinely wants to pass on as much knowledge as he can to his students so that they can progress. He is highly experienced and quite inspirational to spend time with.

I highly recommend Paul as a trainer and martial arts instructor. He's friendly, extremely knowledgable and dedicated to helping people reach peak fitness. His challenging but patient approach has really helped me get back into fitness over the past few months after injury.

Known Paul for a number of years and would recommend him as a trainer and teacher. Great depth of knowledgeable and experience. I would describe his approach as patient and precise.
When I was a young boy there was a show on TV called ‘Kung Fu’ starring David Caradine, it was about a student who was learning martial arts and it’s philosophy from a master and how to apply what he learnt to everyday life. I loved the show so much that at the age of 12 it inspired me to learn ‘Wado-ryu karate’ with N. Kitamura. This was a very traditional, highly disciplined and a sometimes brutal form of training, but at it’s heart it was full of compassion for the student to grow and attain his goal, despite my young age and the tough regime I made it through to black belt.
I became intensely interested in the philosophy and theological beliefs of indigenous traditions which led me to exploring Shamanism and Tai Chi specifically the form of Taijiquan for which I developed a deep passion and went on to study and learn as much as I could. I trained and became a Taijiquan instructor (WBTA registered) as I immersed myself in the practices, my hunger for further knowledge led me to doing a university degree in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) becoming a certified acupuncturist, physical therapist and QiGong instructor. I also trained as and am a black belt instructor for the World Taijiquan boxing association.
During all of this time I was also inspired by the latest developments in sports science and qualified as a Personal Trainer, Gym Instructor and Senior Fitness Specialist.
I continue to keep up to date with traditional Chinese medicine and the latest developments in sports science bringing to my clients a combination of traditional along with the latest techniques in health and well-being.
My passion now is teaching others what I have learnt over the past three decades, guiding individuals and groups of people towards connecting with their own inner energy to support a calmer mind and optimal physical functioning allowing for more balance and vibrancy in life.
I invite you to get in touch and let me know what help or services you need.
