Patricia Walton
Gym Instructor / Personal Trainer / Group Fitness Instructor
Trish’s Fitness Story:
My love of all things exercise-related is what kicked off my 20-year career in the Health and Fitness Industry.
Prior to becoming a Personal Trainer I worked as a registered Nurse which has only served to enhance my understanding of the human body and programming for client-specific goals. My belief is that improved fitness should not only target physical health, but also emotional, mental and spiritual well-being. When training my clients, my priority is to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, strong, confident and happy. Each session with me will have a strong focus on attention to detail, correct technique and coaching to help you build healthy
habits, skills and knowledge for life.
Core strength development is my specialty and an integral part of my programming regardless of your goals.
Building a strong foundation will significantly aid in performance, stability, and functionality of your body. A strong internal core will, in turn, mirror the stronger you on the outside. Making changes can be very challenging. Small changes can become a habit and is more
achievable not to mention a great step in the right direction. Begin small, win bigger! I am keen to work with you to support and guide you through your health journey from start to finish and thereafter.
