I started training with Tiger at the end of summer 2020, just out of lockdown. After 10 yrs of inactivity, joining (then not training in) gyms, knew I needed to find something different in order to kick-start a healthier lifestyle. Richards enthusiasm for training is infectious. He identifies ways to motivate you and manages to tailor that motivation to the individual whilst creating a team atmosphere in his classes. Always looking to develop his members and progress their fitness by working with other local groups, Richard introduced me to Boudica Backdraft to add a different dimension to my training. This has certainly re ignited my competitive spirit and along with Tigers regular monthly challenges I'm looking forward to competing in a few competitions in 2022! I've managed to drop body fat while gaining muscle and become the fittest I've been in a long time!

I started Tiger Fitness in January 2019. I fell in the cliché of new year, new start and I have not looked back since.
I started with one class a week and built up over time to doing 2/3 classes a night and now I am a regular at most classes.
The people who attend the suite are down to earth like minded people, who will support and encourage in sessions and they are always on hand to help to ensure you are doing the exercises right.
Rich goes through every session meticulously and demonstrates every exercise if there is an exercise you cannot do or struggles he will put a regression in or changes it to suits your needs.
Results aren't instant they take time but with focus and determination and the group of people at Tiger fitness anything is possible.
Tiger Fitness is family, I'm proud to be a part of it.

"Rich, I'm still buzzing from our Lower Body and Core session on Thursday. Thank you for putting up such a smashing session. In this photo you will see a face of determination
The most wonderful thing is the support I often feel from the whole crew! These sessions are not just good for the body but also for my mental health. I always leave each session feeling genuinely happier then when I started.
I've been to places where you simply go to workout but your sessions at Tiger Fitness are so much more then that Rich. I do feel I'm working out with family. We work hard and we laugh in between and that's what make each session so much fun! Can't wait for this week sessions! "

I decided to start my journey with Tiger in September 2024.
As someone who was totally unfit, overweight and over 40 the idea was a scary one! I had often thought about joining a gym but with two active daughters and working there never seemed to be enough time.
I was nervous and self-conscious and didn't really have the confidence to join a large gym, so a friend recommended Richard and Tiger Fitness. It is a smaller space but has all the equipment the larger gyms offer and not the level of people, which is great for a beginner!
I initially started one hour a week with Richard as a PT session, he helped develop a manageable plan that wasn’t daunting. I did 20 weeks and then chose a monthly membership in January 2025. I started with one class a week and found that I enjoyed it, so it soon became 3 times a week. The Tigers are a great crew, they are friendly and will happily help if needed. Richard is on hand to encourage and pass on his knowledge and will quite cheerfully push you to meet your full potential and if you struggle, he adjusts to help you achieve your goals.
On writing this, I am 6 months in, I attend 3 group sessions a week and I also private hire for an hour a week, for myself and my youngest daughter. My goal is to run a 5K and with Rich and the team's help I have no worries that I can achieve this.
All in all, it's a fab and welcoming place and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to start or even continue their journey.
Tiger isn't just a team, it's a family.
