Gen Levrant

I have been a Personal Trainer and Sports Massage Therapist for the last four years. I feel having experienced being overweight, unhealthy and unhappy once myself has enabled me to develop an understanding and compassionate style of training my clients that range from working mums to professional sportsmen.

Fitness certainly wasn't something I was always interested in - I hated PE at school and would much rather have spent my time eating chocolate in front of the TV! Unfortunately many years of this resulted in me being an overweight, unhealthy and very unhappy eighteen year old, struggling to fit into a pair of size 16 jeans.

After gathering up the courage to start exercising properly and beginning to make small changes to my diet and lifestyle, my body began changing. I had a lot more energy and started to feel proud of myself for the first time when I looked in the mirror.

I then thought how wonderful would it be to help others feel the same?

Helping my clients successfully achieve their goals and overcome the same obstacles and barriers that I once faced myself is extremely rewarding and makes me very proud. I specialise in inch loss and motivational strategies that will give you permanent results. I am also the in-house trainer for the staff at GE Aviation.

I live in Southampton (where she assures us she's here to stay) with my fiancé Damien.
