| Experience : My career in fitness began when I discovered Kyukoshin Kai karate at the age of eight. I went on to compete internationally in this art as well as studying Kendo, Tai-jutsu, Iaido and Shorinji Kempo. I also competed nationally in ballroom dancing as a youngster and race-cycled for Peugeot. I began teaching martial arts and self-defense at age seventeen and it was then that I discovered that, whilst I love competing in sports and exercising, I find that helping others to find enjoyment in exercise and movement is even more fulfilling. Many clients have come to me as a last resort, when gyms and diets have failed them. I help them to re-think their approach to their health, making many new lifestyle suggestions that allow them to finally reach their goals. Goal-setting is a must – little achievements go a long way to maintaining a positive outlook – and fun is another must, so sessions are informal and relaxed (you will still work hard!). My passion for sport remains and I have helped a number of athletes from different fields of sport to improve their technique and ranking by fine-tuning their training programmes. This is a great reward for me as well as my clients. TR balance Exercise and Movement Therapy was launched in 2003 with the aim of helping individuals to enhance their health, fitness and quality of life. TR balance is a health consultancy company working with individuals and groups across London in all aspects of health and fitness.

| Professional Reference David is professional, informative, patient and approachable. This has meant that for the first time in my life I have enjoyed improving my fitness and seen a real change in my physique. As a result, I would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone regardless of their age, sex or current fitness level (Sarah, Dulwich) As a person who has a life-long hatred of gyms but a need to improve my physical well-being due to long hours spent hunched over a desk and a history of hypertension I was looking for an alternative and more complete approach to fitness. I began working with David in May 2006 and after spending over an hour doing a fitness and posture analysis he designed a programme specifically tailored to strengthen my body’s weaknesses and meet my personal objectives. In July 2006 I fell pregnant and David’s expertise meant that he was able to continue to train me throughout my pregnancy which was a huge benefit in helping my body to cope with the strain. Less than six months after the birth of my daughter I was back to my pre-pregnancy size and shape. Now I am probably in the best physical shape for at least ten years and many friends have commented as much. Thanks to David’s ever evolving training programme and despite the physical demands of motherhood my body – in particular my back, neck and shoulders which were my weak areas – has coped well. Thanks David! (Clair, Bromley) | |||||||
