James Pittam

Hi, my name is James, but most people call me JP. I was born in Northwich Cheshire but currently reside in The Lake district.
 
I have over 20 years’ experience in the PT industry and run my own business based in Penrith The Lake District, which is a multi-faceted Health & Fitness Consultancy offering various services under one umbrella including Personal Training, Physiotherapy, Sports Therapy, Remedial Massage, Podiatry, Food Intolerance Testing, Life Coaching, Bootcamps, Fitness Classes as well as a children’s swim school.
 
In June 2019 we were fortunate enough to pick up 2 prestigious accolades at The England’s Business Awards for Best Fitness Business In The North Of England plus Best Overall Business In The North Of England.
 
I joined Your Personal Training UK in May 2017 as a Regional Personal Training Manager, moving up to Regional Director for the North Of England & Scotland in January 2022. I get great job satisfaction visiting a vast array of different gyms as well as supporting gym operators and Personal Trainers with their PT launch from a blank canvas, growing to a successful thriving business.
 
My hobbies and interests include Ironman triathlons, enduro motor biking, going to the gym, fell walking, paddle boarding, anything active outdoors, cars, Moto GP, eating out, socialising, with friends, travelling and watching films.
