About
I’m Sam, Personal Trainer here at Dorking Sports centre.
I’m easy going, approachable and I love meeting people. I thrive off of seeing others enjoy my sessions and not only achieve their health and fitness goals but also build confidence and their strength of mind along the way.
With over 15 years experience of various sports and fitness disciplines (Crossfit, Rugby, rock climbing, Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, powerlifting and triathlon to name a few!) I rely on all of this experience to my clients benefit, utilising different techniques and styles tailored towards their individual goals.
I can also empathise with peoples barriers to health and wellbeing, having battled multiple injuries and illnesses over the years myself. I have overcome these obstacles with a positive mindset and got back to fitness, training multiple times a week and taking on difficult fitness challenges along the way!

I cannot recommend Sam enough!
After suffering from a slipped disc injury, I was struggling to regain my strength and mobility. Sam worked closely with my physiotherapist, creating a personalised plan that not only supported my recovery but also helped me build strength in a safe and effective way. His knowledge of injury recovery, combined with his dedication to my progress, has made a world of difference. Thanks to his expertise, I've made significant improvements in both my physical condition and confidence. If you're looking for a trainer who truly cares about your well-being and progress, he’s the one! Thank you Sam, you're stuck with me now! 😄

I was only going to do a few sessions and then carry on myself but Sam is so good at pitching the sessions just right and giving the push to do my best. He spends time to truly personalise sessions to whatever your goals are, and takes into account any niggles, changing sessions on the spot if needed. I'm still signing up months later!

I was one of these people who didn’t think they needed a personal trainer, fairly motivated to go to the gym, and felt that I was doing ‘ok’, but honestly, deciding to have personal training sessions was one of the best decisions I’ve made, it’s made such a difference. Sam is very patient and explains everything clearly, but will give you a little push to get you out of your comfort zone when needed. Highly recommended.

I've been incredibly impressed with my new personal trainer, Sam. From our first session, I was struck by his extensive knowledge and passion for fitness. His ability to tailor workouts to my specific goals and fitness level has been invaluable.
Sam's supportive and encouraging nature creates a positive and motivating training environment. He's always there to offer helpful tips, push me to my limits, and celebrate my achievements. I've seen significant improvements in my strength, endurance, and overall fitness since starting with him.

Sam is a fantastic personal trainer, I have explained the goals I would like to achieve. Sam has been brilliant in listening and helping me to achieve my goals. I have really enjoyed my time with Sam as he is really easy to talk to and down to earth. With the time I have spent with Sam I feel like I am already starting to see progress within my strength.
