Testimonials
"I spent 6 months training with Michael and it greatly improved my posture and the way I move. Michaelโs passion for FP was evident in each session as he always went above and beyond to ensure all the exercises were executed perfectly to optimise results and explain the mechanics and reasoning for performing each exercise. Would highly recommend Michael if you face any pains or want to become a better athlete."

"The first thing I noticed when training with Michael was that I had to adjust the rear-view mirror in the car because I was sitting so much more upright. I had a hunched posture for a really long time as well as a significant left/right hip imbalance from years of competitive cycling in a slightly skewed position. Michael made significant improvements to both my posture and my left/right mobility fairly soon after I started training with him. This has had flow on benefits to my awareness of my position on the bike and in other sports."

"Oesteos and physiotherapists didn't really help my hip after a skiing accident that I really struggled to recover from 2 years ago. After 3 months of training with Mic just once a week I can put socks on without sitting down and my day-to-day movement is undeniably improving."

"Working with Michael has been a game-changer for my posture which I have always struggled with. Each session builds on the last, and I'm genuinely feeling better and better with noticeable improvements in my daily comfort and movement. I highly recommend Michael to anyone looking to make real, lasting, positive changes to their physical well-being"
