My approach to your training and nutrition is about empowering you to achieve your goals. You might have tried many other ways: gym, classes, dieting, and other personal trainers. Maybe these things worked for a while. But then life happened, and it all went by the wayside; or maybe they didn’t work at all. I will talk to you in depth about where you want to be. We’ll work together to set realistic goals for you each week, monitoring changes so we can record and celebrate your achievements and make adjustments as and where necessary. My way will work for you. How do I know? Because we will work in a way that fits your lifestyle and the everyday demands you face, such as limited time, no child care, no gym membership, maybe even a dislike of gyms or lack of motivation. Help IS here.
This is your online option for personal training and nutrition, where you can check in from anywhere in the world. This is an ideal way to receive individualised coaching that will help you to achieve realistic goals in manageable steps. Through online consultation you will be provided with a home or gym exercise programme to follow plus weekly advice on what to do next that takes into account your body’s response. You’ll upload your weight, measurements and photo, as well as any questions you have along the way. I will coach you to the successful achievement of your goals. You’ll also have access to 400 delicious and nutritious recipes, and useful guides and a log to record your weekly activity. As this is a lifestyle approach you will also be given advice on what to do with regards to holidays and events, etc. during the 12 week period. VTS is £300 for 12 weeks expert guidance, accountability and encouragement.
Whether you’re male or female, if you feel unfit, lacking in confidence are overweight or wish to recover from a period of inactivity, personal training can help you. It’s all about motivation, putting yourself in control to believe you can work towards and achieve your goals. Motivation may be something you struggle with; personal training can help you with this. Because I’m with you, deciding together what is achievable for you within the lifestyle you lead, you will achieve far more. And the more you achieve, the more you’ll realise you can achieve. It’s about my dedicated support to connect you with your own motivation as well as the practical advice on what you need to do. The benefits of personal training with me include having accountability, a personalised nutrition and exercise program to suit your lifestyle, body type, ability level and goals plus help to get into the mindset and approach that will allow you to transform.
We’ll have a consultation after I welcome you at my private gym. I’ll listen to where you’d like to be and understand what in your life you feel may be hampering you to reach your goals. I understand that you may feel that life gets in the way of you being able to look after your health and wellbeing. We’ll work together to set down practical activities and dietary adjustments that will make a real difference. We may take some baseline readings, then get on with the training itself. Time for action!
During your further appointments you will receive ongoing advice after discussing your needs, goals and progress. I will give you guidance and a step-by-step plan on how to apply new routines into your daily life, and what to do in between appointments.
Whether it’s advice or just a kick up the backside you need, your personalised session will be just that, depending on how you are feeling and what areas you need support in.
“Hopes can become reality…with action.”
“Don’t live in the past…focus on the future instead.”
“Believe in yourself.”
“Don’t allow limiting beliefs to determine your results.”
“Instead take responsibility for your life.”
Please contact me for a consultation and cost for personal training.
Nat has been my PT for a month! She has created exercises routines to suit me as an individual. I am a full time working mum with 2 kids. Sticking to a healthy lifestyle can be challenging! Nat has always encouraged me to make the positive changes in my life to have a much healthier and happier life. One month with Nat and I have lost 10 pounds. I’m fitting into clothes that never used to zip up! I’m feeling better and more energetic. I can only look upwards and onwards for more progress and better results!
I have been training with Nat for nearly 2 months now & can honestly say I haven’t felt this supported or motivated with others I have tried.
The main issue for me was I’m self-employed & always got stuck with food to fit around my day but Nat personalised my meals so that I had something quick & easy instead of snacking like I usually would! Don’t think I’ve ever enjoyed a PT so much!
The support is next level & that’s what I love about it, no questions are ever too much! Can’t wait to see where the next few months get me! X
Well, what can I say? We both know I’m not the easiest person to train with my busy working pattern and my endless social engagements but you have kept me on track. I feel fitter and more toned than I have ever been. Exercising and eating healthy does not come naturally to me!! When I finish work all I want to do is fall on to the sofa with coffee and cake but you have given me the kick up the backside I needed to become healthier and more motivated. It’s not long now until the wedding and I finally feel like I can achieve my goal of standing there on my wedding day in my dress feeling the best I have ever felt. Thank you so much Nat, I couldn’t do it without you.
I don’t like exercises, never have. Nat stuck with me through me moaning every step of the way, sneakily eating pies at midnight, behaving like a prima donna and generally being most likely the worst trainee in the history of personal training. She made me a program based on my reality and even though it’s not hardcore, it gave me realistic results and brought me from size 16 to size 10 in 3 months. I am very happy with the results and the support throughout the journey and I cannot wait to grate some (fat free) cheese on my newly found abs ❤️
I had my first PT session yesterday followed by Reiki, I didn’t know what to expect so I went with an open mind. Nat made me feel really comfortable.
I really enjoyed both the PT and Reiki, I feel very relaxed now and I am looking forward to starting my transformation, I’ve got a good feeling about this! Emma x
I have been coming to Nat since the end of Jan and can’t recommend her enough and I am so grateful to her. I had my son in September and thought that I would never lose weight as I just didn’t have the motivation to diet or to push myself at the gym. I decided to go to Nat and it was the best decision I made as she pushes me and has given me the motivation I needed, I have also had a nutrition plan made for me which allows me to have weekly treats which is something I need else I will end up not sticking to it and binging on chocolate! I have lost 10Ibs in total since starting and that is with having treats. Would recommend Nat to everyone!
I can’t quite believe I’ve lost 2 stone 4lbs since January. I’d got to a point in my life where I was so low, the little confidence I did have had gone and I was just a mess, I couldn’t even look at myself in the mirror without feeling disgust / crying. I found happiness in food, and comfort eaten my way to a bad place … a place I promised I’d never go back to … but I did. I’ve always had an unhealthy view of my weight and food / body image. I’ve always done fad diets, starvation diets and those stupid calorie counting diets. All of which may have worked at the time, but really wasn’t good for me mentally, and could never maintain. But With the correct professional guidance each week from Mike, he has helped me and advised me with my nutrition and training. And I’ve thoroughly enjoyed everything !! Yes I’ve gained a new found love for Gherkins don’t think I will ever get fed up of them hahahaha! But I just want to thank you both from the bottom of my heart for everything.
Nat has really helped me to believe in myself and believe that I am worthy of happiness, and I am good enough! I 100000% recommend Mike & Nat, best thing I’ve ever done!
I’ve been training with Natalie over the last 12 weeks and she is absolutely amazing! I am very happy with the results so far and can’t wait to see what can be achieved. I’m starting to see definition now and I’m feeling great too. Couldn’t do this without her, she is so easy going and down to earth she really knows her stuff. I definitely recommend her!
I’m only 8 weeks into the online VTS course with Nat, I know I have a long way to go but I can see big results already! The motivation and advice on both nutrition and training is a big help to staying focused and on track. Although I’m currently trying to lose weight Nat mentioned she was also qualified in Reiki. Being a man, in the past i have been sceptical about this kind of thing. But over the past 18 months I have been going through stressful times, due to personal circumstances. Anyway after Nat explained that Reiki heals by flowing through the affected parts of the energy field and charges them with positive energy I decided to give it a go. I can honestly say that after just a 1 hour Reiki session I came out feeling more relaxed and calm than I have felt in years. Coupled with the training I am sleeping much better and feel more calm throughout my busy work schedule. Absolute quality and would recommend to anyone to try this, I have already block booked more of these sessions over the next few months , give it a go
I’ve tried various diets, slimming clubs etc before but I would keep it up for a few months and give up. Nat makes sure the exercise and nutrition plans work around you and are realistic. I’m currently seeing Nat face to face and will continue to do so in the future. Her workouts are brilliant and she will happily change it up regularly to keep it interesting. I would recommend her to anyone
I have tried numerous diets and gyms but I wasn’t able to keep motivated and stick to them. I got engaged in March 2017 and we were to get married in May 2018, I desperately needed to find something realistic that I would keep up with and be able to maintain. A friend of mine had been training with Nat and had some amazing results. Personal training wasn’t something I’d tried before as I am very self conscious when it comes to gyms, but with Nat training from her own home I decided to give it a go. Nat has been amazing, she made me feel comfortable and motivated right from the start. She gave me a nutrition and exercise plan which was easy to follow but pushed me. I have achieved exactly what I wanted to for my wedding day and I honestly don’t think I could have done it without Nat. Thank you x
I’ve been having weekly training sessions with Nat. Absolutely excellent, I have dropped nearly 3/4 of a stone in roughly 6 weeks and have changed shape completely! and have never felt better. Tailored training that suits my goals
I’ve trained one to one sessions with Nat over the last 12 weeks and also attended her classes. She is so focused on ensuring that I achieve my goal and makes every session challenging (& somehow fun)- more importantly she made sure my technique was always correct to avoid any injuries. I enjoyed the variety of the sessions and I soon saw improvements in my ability. Not only has VTS helped me physically but mentally too! I don’t know what I would have done without Nats Indian head massage and meditation / Reiki which helped me stay focused and stay positive when life got stressful. I’ve managed to drop 8 inches off my waist and lose 11lb! I’ve still got a long way to go but I’m already feeling more confident and positive and that’s just after 12 weeks! Couldn’t Thank Nat enough! Roll on the next VTS!
I started seeing Natalie less than a year after my mum died. I was off work with anxiety and in a really low place at the time. I first went to the Saturday class and she was so welcoming and accommodating to me (my fitness level was really low too). I was enjoying it and I really got on with all the other people at the class. Nat suggested 1-2-1 PT sessions in the gym and despite me messing her around because of my anxiety, she stuck with me. Eventually once I’d been, I realised it was so much better than I’d thought in my head. I’ve had a gym membership in the past but didn’t go because I felt self conscious and embarrassed in the normal gym environment. Nat’s is NOT like this. I usually have 1 or 2 PT sessions a week. I have also had group classes, nutrition 1-2-1, meditation and mindfulness, Reiki, Indian head massage and facial. I’ve lost over 2 stone and plan to continue this. But most importantly I have improved my life! Since coming to Natalie’s I have quit my old job (that I’d wanted to quit for years) and go the job I always dreamed of. I think I’m the happiest I’ve ever been and I can’t thank her enough for all the work she’s put in.
I’ve been seeing Natalie Calpin the best personal trainer now since late December last year. I would recommend her to anyone. I started in January for 12 weeks on the VTS enrolment with Mike Calpin who helped me lose weight and tone up with the weekly check-in and his guidance on an eating plan and training program. This continues with Natalie face-to-face once or twice a week for her personal training as I’m just feeling so healthy now and don’t want to go back to the way I was. All I can say is, do it you will never look back. I would also recommend Natalie’s relaxation skills too. There’s anything from Reiki to facials to Hopi ear candle. Her skills are endless. And she takes a wellbeing approach as well as the personal training side of things! Thanks for everything.
Natalie is a great fitness instructor who has helped me to get my body fit and healthy. She has helped me with my nutrition and shown me what is good to eat and how to make myself healthier. She has done Reiki on me which I really find useful as a good way to relax and get rid of bad tension. I really enjoy her classes.
I was introduced to Nat by a mutual friend. I’d been putting off going to see her but after training for several years I wasn’t getting the results I wanted. Nat instantly made me feel at ease, she knows exactly what she’s talking about and as a woman understood how I felt about my body. I was going away for the summer but I joined the VTS as I hoped it would keep me on the straight and narrow whilst I was away. Nat gave me a training and food plan and I was amazed how easy it was to stick to, even on holiday. I came home several pounds lighter, something that’s never happened before! I still have a long way to go but I know Nat will help me every step of the way and I can’t thank her enough for giving me my confidence back. I can’t wait to see what happens next. Thanks Nat!
I started this journey to build my fitness and feel better. After a number of illnesses and chest infections it is my 40th birthday in August and I wanted to be more healthy for it.
I feel loads better with lots more energy and do more exercise than I thought was possible for me. I have lost 17lb and 41 cm from all over my body. Thank you Nat Calpin for all of your help and determination to get me to where I am now.
I have just completed a 12 week programme with Natalie doing nutrition one-to-one workouts and Reiki when needed. My journey has not always been a smooth one due to my medical conditions and some emotional issues I’ve had to deal with. However Natalie does not just look at your needs from a physical point of view but looks at your needs from a holistic view and tailors your program to your individual needs whilst constantly reassessing and adjusting things as needed. I find Natalie really easy to talk to and she genuinely cares and wants to do her best for you. Natalie goes above and beyond her responsibilities and will always help you whenever she can. I am only partway through my journey but in spite of doctors telling me I wouldn’t lose weight I know with Natalie’s help I will complete my journey and not only be in a better place physically but mentally too
After years of ‘dieting’ and going to the gym with not seeing any results whatsoever! I decided to get in touch with Nat. Nat educated me on all the workouts as I didn’t feel confident I was doing them correctly, also with having back problems Nat always worked around this and gave me the workouts right for me and my body. Always feel amazing after every PT session!
After losing all this extra weight I gained, I now feel more confident in myself and can’t wait to start on the next stage to tone up. Nat has also totally changed the way I feel about food, eating the right food isn’t so bad! The VTS book is amazing with the recipes! It’s a total lifestyle change, can’t thank Nat enough!
To be honest I haven’t had he time to put in even 75% yet so looking forward to the long term results.
Only 8 weeks into the online VTS course with Nat and I can see big results already. The advice on both nutrition and training is a big help on staying focused and on track. Long way to go but feeling so much better already. Thanks again Nat.
I’m a busy mum of two, the last thing I want is to be is unhappy about how I look. It’s not about ‘snapping back in shape’ it’s about feeling like ‘me’, feeling happy with the way I look and feeling full of energy and strong. Happy mummy = happy family.
With my first baby I gained two stone. This time round I gained three stone and have turned 40; it is much harder to lose the weight. I had already gained a stone following several miscarriages too leaving me over four stone heavier than I used to be.
Before children I used to run every day. I don’t miss the obsession however I do miss feeling like me and the figure. VTS is the perfect answer, not only do you get genuine, personal, individual support and encouragement from people who care and understand, but it fits in with family life too.
One of the greatest benefits (other than the physical result) is the great balance of foods.
My hair and nails grow more on VTS than during pregnancy, my energy levels are high and my mood is positive and happy.
My baby is breastfed and I know I’m eating not only the right things for me, but for her too.
With my first child I waited three months before beginning the programme. I was tired and exhausted, leaving eating as my last priority, which meant I would grab chocolate, convinced I deserved a treat and in need of a quick hit of energy. This time around, not only am I already educated, but I started the VTS only a few weeks after birth. I have so much energy; I’m doing something for myself. I’m happy and relaxed and so is my new born and family too. I feel in a really good place mentally and physically.
The first time I was back to work when I joined VTS and it worked and fitted in around work too. This time around, with a husband, toddler, baby and maternity pay, the gym just wouldn’t work, instead I train at home, taking my opportunities when I can, but it can be done at home. The whole family are eating better as I’m buying and preparing fresh food more. We have always been active but when and wherever we can we go for long walks together as I feel motivated. The results stick too. It’s not a fad. It’s not a diet. It’s just a better way of life.
Working with Mike and Nat has been fantastic. I’ve faced some challenges over the last few years and Nat has always been there for me. I’m so privileged to know her; she has been an inspiration and will hopefully be a friend for life.
After one session with Nat I am hooked! I can’t believe all the little things in training I’ve been doing so wrong that have prevented me from training properly. So I’ve really been wasting my time. She was so friendly and made me feel at ease. She went through all my goals and what I want to achieve and I learnt so much in just one session that I’ve already booked sessions in advance! I’ve also never tried Reiki and I can’t describe the feeling you get from this experience. My job is particularly stressful and I’ve never felt lighter. So again that’s something else I’ve booked again in advance. I am so excited to see what I can do with Nat’s help, guidance and expertise support. I can’t thank you enough. So glad I booked!!
I’ve been going to see Nat for weeks now. I’ve learnt so much and I absolutely love training with her. I know exactly what I should eat and I feel so much healthier for it. She’s taught me the correct technique and how to use all the equipment/weights. If you’re wanting to get fit, Nat is the person to go to! She is very supportive and will guide you through everything you need to know. Thank you!!!!
After falling off the fitness wagon and living off pizza, Nat helped me get my ever increasing waistline back on track. Nat is an excellent motivator and gets you to push your limits. Not only this but Nat also helps with technique to make sure you get the most out of your session without injuring yourself, and being a clumsy oaf like me this is a godsend! I highly recommend both PT sessions and Nat’s classes 🙂
Just want to thank Nat for her patience with me over the last 12 weeks. I haven’t always been the easiest to work with but I think Nat likes a challenge! I have been having PT sessions and going to her Saturday class every week, and training six days a week. I’m not one that enjoys exercise but when I focus on something I’m determined to reach my goal, usually with a holiday on the horizon.
Nat taught me not to be scared of weights, if someone told me I’d be doing the weights I am, this time last year, I probably would have laughed! I’ve lost 9lbs in 12 weeks and feel more toned, stronger than ever before.
I did the VTS a few times, learned loads about nutrition and exercise and saw some great results. Outside the VTS however I struggled with exercise motivation and kept taking backwards steps. I recently started training with Nat one-to-one and feel well and truly back on track. Already seeing some great results in weight, body shape and fitness levels and now feel I’ve got the confidence and belief to get to where I need to be. It’s fully bespoke training tailored to suit your needs done in total privacy and I can’t recommend it enough.
Thank you so much for all your support and help. You go above and beyond your job. You truly care and that shines through.
I’m an exercise hater and had therefore done very little for years and years. I started with Nat wanting to tone and build strength as well as lose weight. Nat’s ability to motivate and constantly find new ways to get me moving have been unwavering as well as her patience (I’d have given up on me in her position). I’m still very much on this journey, mainly because Nat won’t let me quit! I’m looking forward to seeing what more I can achieve. Anyone thinking you don’t know whether you can do this – take it from me you can and should. Also treat yourself to Reiki with Nat she’s brilliant at that too.
Natalie’s positivity and professionalism as a one-to-one trainer with me, instilled me with absolute confidence in her.
Over the months she has complemented my training and self development progress, with Indian Head Massage, Reiki & Healing Meditation. Natalie is highly intuitive and a natural healer, always knowing exactly what I need and able to guide me through my blocks.
I can’t recommend Natalie highly enough, her holistic approach and dedication to my physical & emotional wellbeing has been outstanding. Natalie goes out of her way to make you feel absolutely comfortable and relaxed. She explains herself clearly, understands your needs and translates that by steering you into the most suitable method of therapy for you. A truly bespoke service.
