A big welcome to our new Apprentice Personal Trainer, Jomar! Whilst Jomar is working towards achieving his Level 3 Personal Training qualification, here is a little bit more about him!

“Hello, my name is Jomar! I’m currently doing an apprenticeship in Personal Training because of my passion for exercise and its impact on both physical and mental health. I am working towards my Level 3 Personal Trainer qualification and am excited about becoming a fitness professional in the future.
I have a diverse fitness background, including a year of boxing, and I’m currently looking for a new gym to pick it up again. I also enjoy mountain biking and calisthenics, which keep my workouts engaging and challenging.
Outside of fitness, I love music, especially Dancehall and Reggaeton, and I’m a fan of thrillers and horror films. I also have a passion for travel and have lived in France, exploring South America and the Caribbean. These experiences have enriched my perspective and drive to help others through fitness.
I’m excited to continue my journey in Personal Training and am eager to make a positive impact in the fitness world!”

Make sure to say hello next time you’re in club 💚💪🏼
