Moving our bodies is one of the kindest things we can do for ourselves. Whether it's taking a walk around the park on a Sunday, playing in your local football league on a weeknight, or practicing yoga at home during your lunchtime break. But it can be hard to find the motivation. Often we're too tired or sore and exercise is just another commitment in our already busy lives. Some of us struggle with recurring injuries and some of us have never really found an activity we enjoy and want to do regularly.

At Moving Parts, our focus is to find movement which brings you joy and benefits your body and mind in order for you to build an active, healthy life.

  • "Moving parts has genuinely been life changing! Had previously really struggled with consistency with working out, however, Moving Parts has been incredible at making exercise a fun and enjoyable part of my routine. I’ve loved the outdoor classes and can genuinely see such a difference in my strength and speed. Jan is amazing at helping you push yourself and use the correct technique in a supportive, non-intimidating way. The atmosphere is lovely at all of the classes - it feels very inclusive and welcoming!"

  • "I did a block of 1-1 coaching with Jan and had an amazing time. She puts a lot of work into making the sessions suitable to what I can and want to do. She also helped me learn invaluable skills and techniques that I expect to use for a long time to come. Always approachable, encouraging and extremely on the ball. I couldn’t recommend her enough."

  • "If you want to work on mobility, build strength for everyday life and try some fun and silly things along the way then Moving Parts is for you. There hasn't been any push to work towards aesthetic goals or a sniff of typical gym culture, Jan gets it. She really listens to every detail and works hard to build a plan that is realistic and fun, every week has been a laugh and I actually look forward to working out now. 10 / 10 would recommend."

  • "I've been doing the Foundations blocks on a Sunday night and loving them !! Jan is great. She makes the sessions a lot of fun, while teaching a lot about strength movements and technique. I feel they are helping with my running and general strength goals. Would highly recommend for any level of ability, she makes adjustments so everyone is welcome and can get something from the class."

Jan is incredibly knowledgeable, welcoming, accommodating and creates just the right atmosphere for everyone to feel comfortable, supported and encouraged. Her signature blend of top tunes, genuine enthusiasm and perfectly pitched encouragement makes every session a pleasure."

Female Personal Trainer

Meet the coach

Hi, my name is Jan (she/her) and I’m a level 3 Personal Trainer. 

I’ve been enthusiastic about sports and exercise from a young age. I embraced team sports in school and university where I played basketball and football and participated in swim and athletics competitions. I became passionate about grassroots football in my twenties, and fell in love with hillwalking and Animal Flow in my thirties. Finding movement and activity that I enjoy, which feels good and is functional (i.e. results in me being able to do something I couldn’t before) is an absolute priority for me, and something I want to instill in my clients. Physical activity has been a passion and joy for me and I’m excited to help others find happiness in movement.

A bit about me

The benefits of living an active life are immense for your physical health and mental wellbeing. We also know that being outdoors can calm our minds, reduce stress levels, and improve our sleep. As your coach, I will focus on exercise that you'll enjoy and look forward to. In-person coaching will predominantly happen outdoors to reap those extra benefits. 

So, if you're interested in having a positive and enthusiastic personal trainer - who'll prioritise health as well as fun - get in touch!
