Davinia Meades is a truly excellent trainer and coach. She is the perfect combination of warm and tough and she works with the whole person -- mentally, emotionally and physically. Because of her efforts and massive help, I am fitter, thinner, stronger and more flexible. Working out has become fun and I would definitely recommend her

My friends and family keep telling me how good I look, and it is all down to you Davinia. Thank you. You are a miracle worker. I can’t believe I am already back in my size 10 clothes after having my baby 10 months ago and needing to still lose 2.5 stone. I am so happy. I feel and look so much better and feel like my old self again. It’s amazing. You are amazing and I can’t recommend you highly enough. Thank you. I love our PT sessions together, although they are hard work!

Where do I start to thank you for all you have done for me. You are such a special person and an inspiration. I consider myself so lucky to have ‘found you’ and thank you for not only helping me to improve my fitness and to get my weight down, but also for increasing my confidence and the way I feel about myself. I know now that I have lost two stone already with you that I will be able to lose the other two. I feel so much happier in myself and will be wearing the red dress at Christmas. Thank you Davinia. Xx

Since the age of 10 years old, I have struggled with my weight. I was always the chubby girl at school and was bullied. By 15 years old I had put on a massive amount from binging on junk food as I was so unhappy with school life and being overweight. By the time I went to uni I was 16 stone and by the time I came to Davinia I was 20 stone. I have now lost 3 stone in the last 4 months and I am so proud of myself. I still have a long way to go but for the first time in my life I am in control of my eating habits and am exercising. Personal training with Davinia has changed my life and I am so grateful. I am hoping that this time next year I will be at my target weight of 12 stone. I will carry on with eating healthily and sticking to Davinia’s programme. I love my weekly sessions with Davinia as seeing the inches dropping off and the body fat decreasing is just brilliant. I cannot wait to write my testimonial to Davinia when I am 12 stone! Thank you Davinia.

I hurt my knee in April 2013 and 12 months later had managed to put on 20 lbs. After several attempts at trying to lose the weight on my own with no success, I contacted Davinia who with her knowledge and understanding of health, nutrition and exercise, helped me to get my mojo back and since April 2014 I have not only managed to lose 1 stone, but I have a much greater understanding of how important healthy eating is. Since signing up with Davinia, she has been genuinely interested in helping and supporting me through the 10 week plan and I felt brilliant on holiday, lying on the beach in my bikini in Marbella, from where I have just returned. Davinia continually encouraged me through texts throughout the duration of my holiday. I have still got stone to lose, and with the motivation and encouragement received from Davinia, I feel confident that I will now be able to do this on my own, although I know that Davinia is always there in the background if I need some encouragement from her at any time. Thanks for your help. X x x x x

All of my life I have struggled with my weight, feeling unworthy and miserable for so long. That is until I plucked up the courage to call Davinia. She was so kind and encouraging during our initial conversation, I felt I could trust her and so I signed up. That was in January 2014. It is now the beginning of July, I have lost 4.5 stone and I have never felt better. I can hardly believe it myself! The program is completely do-able and I find myself enjoying exercise, but the best part is - all my efforts are paying off, it's working! I still have more weight to lose, but I now know I can do it. Davinia's knowledge and understanding of health, nutrition, exercise and well-being are surpassed only by her genuine care, support and encouragement. She believed in me, even when I didn't and I feel completely safe in her hands. Not only have I found an amazing personal trainer but also a friend for life! Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Training with Davinia is great because she keeps you super motivated and my results are superb. I have now lost over 2 stone in 12 weeks and have lost 2 dress sizes, nearly 3. I need to lose one more dress size and tone up by 22nd august for my sister’s wedding and i know i will with Davinia’s help. i have always struggled with my weight and have done every diet under the sun including the Dukan, Atkins, Slimmers world, Weight watchers, the Cambridge diet and so on. The diets worked for a while but after a few weeks i would always feel hungry and would give up. But this time no diets and just healthy living with a healthy eating plan and exercise plan (from Davinia) and the weight is coming off nicely. Davinia keeps you on track by emailing you constantly to check (in-between sessions) that you are being ‘good’ and sticking to the programme. She is very positive, uplifting and has superb knowledge. I would recommend Davinia to anyone who wants to lose weight and feel good about themselves. She is a breath of fresh air

Davinia is currently training my 17 year old daughter and she has been for about 5 months now. She is very motivating and has helped my daughter feel confident about herself again. Davinia has helped my daughter not only with losing weight but also in helping her to understand better about healthy eating and exercising. My daughter loves her weekly sessions with Davinia and we love seeing our daughter flourish

Thank you Davinia for getting me back on track with my eating and exercise regime. I have been stuck in a rut for a while and wasn't managing to shift any weight. It was so frustrating and i was yo yo- ing on my last half a stone. With your help I now only have 1lb left to lose which is brilliant. When I see you next month, it will be off. You are a very inspiring woman and I am so pleased to have found you. I will recommend you to anyone.

Ok I admit I am a lazy daisy. I have never really had any motivation to exercise and that is something that I have been able to live with until now. I suddenly realised last year that the weight has been creeping on slowly over the years and I don’t want to be fat and become unhealthy. I have always found it hard to motivate myself to exercise and I have certainly found it harder over the last year or two.... then I met Davinia. There has never been anyone, ever who has motivated me the way that Davinia has. Davinia is easy to get along with, obviously knows what she is doing and is passionate about what she does. I never thought I would ever want to workout... but guess what, I do and I love it. I have been seeing Davinia for the last 7 months and I love our sessions. I have lost my stone of body fat that I needed to and am back in my size 10 jeans. I am now working out 3-4 times a week on my own and once a week still with Davinia and I love it. I am so grateful to have met Davinia as she is so lovely and so inspiring. I would and will recommend Davinia to anyone and everyone.
