Movement Personal Training

Fantastic experience: Luke’s strength class at The Base is outstanding and one of my favs! He puts a big emphasis on proper form and technique, making sure every movement is safe and effective. His clear instruction and motivating style make strength training both approachable and rewarding. Highly recommend his sessions for anyone serious about building strength the right way.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training with Luke and I couldn’t be more impressed with his professionalism and dedication. He’s incredibly attentive, always focused on form and technique and really takes the time to understand your goals. Every session feels purposeful and well-structured. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to push your limits, I highly recommend working with Luke!

Fantastic experience: Started training with Luke and few months back, great PT, gets involved with you in your sessions properly and makes you his sole focus. Something I felt has lacked in some of my previous PTs, more importantly I don't feel under pressure outside the gym, I'm actually enjoying my training again and my life, he has helped sort out my form which has massively improved my performance. If your looking for a kick up the backside or just want a change this is your guy .

Fantastic experience: I’d been running and cycling regularly as a hobby for three years when I began experiencing knee pain and Luke was recommended to me. I had no idea of the cause and after a month of pain I didn’t know whether to rest, persist or give up. I turned up to the first assessment not entirely convinced but from the off, Luke listened, observed and provided what seemed like reasonable advice (he explained the issue and provided his opinion on how I could manage and improve the pain I was experiencing). There was no pressured sales pitch and no promises of a miracle cure with any fancy equipment etc. I agreed to follow a tailored plan for a month and return for a review. I wasn’t fixed in the month but there was light so we reviewed the plan and I returned again a month later. Fast forward two years… I feel so much stronger, I’m far more aware of what I’m physically feeling, I’m pain and injury free and able to enjoy my running and cycling! I continue to see Luke monthly for strength sessions (which we both know I hate!), but I know they’re essential to keep the pain away. Luke always varies the sessions and has an incredible skill of knowing my threshold - I achieve way more than if I was going it alone but I’ve never felt in danger of being pushed too far or causing further injury. I’ve also picked up loads of tips and advice on how to do purposeful strength work at home without the need for any expensive equipment! Being a ‘monthly’ customer (who only runs and cycles for a hobby!), must be a pain in the backside for scheduling, but Luke always fits me in and I sense he genuinely cares about his clients health and well-being. What really helps is he also really knows his stuff!

Fantastic experience: Great facility with knowledgable trainers. Had PT sessions with Luke recently and additional strength training with one of his other clients and really enjoyed both. Informative coach, good at spotting where corrections are required and flexible in his approach depending on client needs. Fun sessions and just the right level of increasing challenge to see improvements. Can recommend Movement and the good quality equipment and training.

Fantastic experience: I've been a member for just less than a month and I couldn't be more happier with my experience. Unlike a conventional gym setup, this place offers a unique and refreshing approach to fitness. The classes are fantastic, with knowledgeable trainers who make every session enjoyable and effective. The atmosphere is motivating, and I've seen great progress in my fitness journey since joining. Highly recommend this space to anyone looking for something different and engaging!

Fantastic experience: If you had asked me five years ago if I would recommend any kind of fitness/PT I would have laughed at you, and laughed even louder if you’d mentioned a group class. Yet here I am. Training at movement is an excellent way to get fit, and to keep fit. All the trainers are great and really welcoming and friendly, as are the other people who train. The small group set up means that you are more able to get individualised support from a PT. They are also able get to know you really well which helps a lot. The classes suit everyone, no matter what stage you’re at on your journey, and the trainers make everything accessible to everyone (even people like me with two left feet and zero co-ordination). I could not recommend them enough.

Fantastic experience: Movement classes are a fantastic way to get fit and feel great! The smaller class model allows for professional PT input and guidance in an affordable way. Using muscles you never knew you had, prepare to strengthen and tone the whole body. Designed to allow you to participate at your own fitness level, you will soon see your improvement in both strength and cardio fitness. Super friendly, encouraging and none judgemental atmosphere; highly recommended to get involved

Fantastic experience: I had the pleasure of experiencing both the Movefit and Movestrength fitness classes at Movement Personal Training in Derby and I must say, they exceeded my expectations. The instructors are incredibly knowledgeable and supportive, ensuring that each session is both challenging and enjoyable. The variety of exercises keeps things interesting. Moreover, I’ve also had the opportunity to work with a personal trainer for tailored 121 sessions, and the results have been outstanding. They are attentive to my specific goals and needs, providing personalized guidance and motivation every step of the way. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned athlete, their expertise caters to all levels. Overall, Movement Personal Training truly lives up to its name by focusing on both movement and strength. I highly recommend their fitness classes and personal training services to anyone looking to elevate their fitness journey.

Fantastic experience: I’m at the start of a long journey and have been training with Luke for 3 months now following the birth of my 2nd child. Luke’s knowledge and encouragement focusing on my own personal requirements has been fantastic, he has tailored my training to improve areas of weakness while keeping it fun and interesting. The gym facilities are brilliant, everything you need and more for the 1:1 coaching experience. A real genuine nice guy helping people like me regain my fitness. I’d highly recommend anyone to train with Luke.

Fantastic experience: Rich, Luke and Adam are amazing trainers and I've really enjoyed the classes I've done with them. They are great at getting the best out of you, but in a supportive environment. Definitely no egos here - just a great bunch of people, we always have a laugh when we train, with a fab selection of equipment that help improve your strength and cardio! Definitely recommend their group PT sessions, great if you're just starting out, new to the gym environment (they show you through each exercise and how to use the equipment correctly), or have been training for years and just want a beasting ☺️

Fantastic experience: Been seeing Luke for years, resolving a lot of my back issues, and helped rehab from two separated shoulders.

Fantastic experience: Having never done any gym work found this one close to work and have nothing but praise for Luke as a PT. Great at pushing me more than I would myself but all done in a professional way and making me feel that I have worked hard without feeling like it’s been too much. I highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I have trained with Luke for many years now. Initially, starting with exercises to improve my knees and assist with weight loss. Now I see him twice a week to do strength training. I have had other personal trainers before but stuck with Luke as he’s not a cold-hearted drill sergeant. You can easily chat with him, even have a laugh, while working out and give feedback on how your body is reacting to the different exercises. Luke has never pushed me over my limit into an injury and has always kept changing the exercises, so you never get bored of just doing the same thing.

Fantastic experience: I have started training with Luke and he is very knowledgeable and is able to motivate me to progress and achieve my goals. I’ve really enjoyed my training. I highly recommend him as a PT.

Fantastic experience: Top service

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training with Rich now for around the past 4 years and I can honestly say I’ve gotten a great workout from each session. Super helpful and knowledgeable whether it’s setting goals to work towards or if you just need some tips and advice on certain aspects of diet and training. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to get active

Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere, friendly people - all round great experience!

Fantastic experience: What a session! Had my first training session with Luke just after Christmas and I loved every minute of it. Luke kept me motivated from start to finish... Ill be back! Thanks Luke!

Fantastic experience: Luke is a brilliant trainer. I always really enjoy the sessions and great to still be setting PBs. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: I have been working out with Luke for 9 months, definitely improved my strength and health, great to have someone who is knowledgable helping me, I would recommend Luke to anyone who is looking for a personal trainer.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training with Luke for some time and I’m the fittest and strongest I’ve ever been. His sessions are dynamic, mixing cardio and strength work, and really make the most of the well kitted-out studio. I would 100% recommend Luke and the team at Movement.

Fantastic experience: I had been suffering with pulling my back on a regular basis since May and after two massage sessions I have not had any trouble since !! Puts your mind at ease as well knowing Luke teaches people massage and is thoroughly knowledge on all aspects of his job . Definitely be back . Thanks a million

Fantastic experience: Luke is an amazing S&C coach, I would recommend him to people at all levels of fitness and guarantee improvement.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training with Luke for over 2years, and I’ve never had a boring session!! He always mixes it up and pushes me just the right amount when I need it most to dig deep. And more recently has helped me really look into what I am eating so that I am able to reach my goals in a healthier way. I’ve recommended him to friends already and they are loving the sessions as much as I am!!

Fantastic experience: Luke is the best trainer I have ever had, including when I played high level rugby. I have far surpassed previous strength goals and continue to look forward to future achievements. Luke is also great at rehab and knows how to fix me whenever I have inevitably injured myself doing something daft.

Fantastic experience: Have been training with Luke since the start of summer and will be continuing next year! Lovely guy and will help you get what you want out of your training.

Fantastic experience: Love training with Luke - I started with Luke over a year ago and feel fitter than I ever have. Couldn’t recommend more! Never lets me down either. Georgie
