What Katie Ashworth Said
Katie, 46, mum of two, joined at a time when life felt overwhelming.
She was juggling a demanding career that involved travelling and caring for others, raising two daughters, and planning her wedding, all while carrying the weight of constant stress and anxiety.
On top of that, she wasn't happy with how she looked or felt. Her confidence had taken a knock, and she wanted to feel attractive, comfortable, and proud of herself as she walked down the aisle on her wedding day.
Even after applying, anxiety nearly stopped her from starting.
For the first two weeks, Katie drove to the gym almost every day. She'd sit in the car park, wanting to come in, but her mind kept telling her, "You'll only quit after a week. What's the point?"
With reassurance, patience, and encouragement from the coaching team, she finally found the courage to walk through the door and promised herself she'd just give it one try.
That single session changed everything.
What started as a goal to get in shape for her wedding soon became much more. The gym became her escape from the pressures of everyday life, a place to switch off, relieve stress, grow in confidence, and rediscover herself.
Eleven months later, she's not only stronger and fitter, she's happier, more confident, and feels comfortable in her own skin.
"I signed up expecting to quit after a week, just like I always had before. Instead, I found myself wanting to come back, wanting to lift more, and wanting to push myself further.
Fast forward 11 months, and I'm stronger, fitter, and 1.5 stone lighter. For the first time in a long time, I genuinely feel comfortable in my own skin.
The coaching has been incredible, the playlists keep the energy high, and the people make you laugh just as hard as they make you work. Everyone is so welcoming and supportive that I actually feel guilty if I miss a session.
Joining has been one of the best decisions I've ever made."
