Alexandra Sharples PT

Fantastic experience: Alex is a professional, enthusiastic trainer who tailors each session to the people who attend. She explains what each exercise focuses on and varies the sessions every week so it keeps everyone motivated. I come away feeling energised and looking forward to the next time we meet. Thank you Alex.

Fantastic experience: Alex motivates me to keep going. We do weights and aerobic work. Thanks Alex for all your hard work. Matthew

Fantastic experience: I attend a class Alex runs for "more mature people" ie 60 -80 generally! I love that she tailors exercises to our age group, focusing on important things such as balance but pushes us a little more at each session. We leave feeling stronger and fitter but most importantly of all have fun in the process.

Fantastic experience: Alex is a superb trainer . She’s always well prepared for her classes. She’s approachable, flexible, caring and supportive. She responds to our queries promptly. She’s professional and personable at all times. Always cheerful in her approach , so her classes are fun.

Fantastic experience: Alex is a great PT, I’ve been training with her for nearly 6 months and she has really levelled up my fitness and weight loss journey. She is very flexible as a trainer, knowledgable in fitness but also realistic in terms of balance and ability. She helped me overcome my apprehension around squats in just one session! She is enthusiastic which helps keep the energy and motivation high, also setting challenges to complete outside our sessions. Thank you for everything, Alex!

Fantastic experience: Alex is wonderful and hugely emotionally intelligent! - she is effective and kind and can read your mood so tailors the workouts to suit.

Fantastic experience: I have been training on and off with Alex since Covid times whenever I am back in Folkestone and I could not recommend a better trainer!! We have worked both outside in parks, gardens and also in the Gym and the sessions are always unique and tailored to me and my needs!! I recently had an illness which impacted on my health and she made sure that the sessions were suited to building me back up to strength again so if you are a first timer or someone who has been going for a while she is suitable for everyone as she is incredibly knowledgeable in what she does. Genuinely if you are struggling to find a trainer in the area or not sure who to go with then DO NOT HESITATE! :)

Fantastic experience: Alex is a very positive and friendly lady and a good teacher. I look forward to her classes each week Barbara Williams

Fantastic experience: I started training with Alex to shed post-lockdown weight and to support getting back intoTriathlon and Marathon training. Since training with Alex, my upper body & ABS started showing nice muscle definishon, my swimming got much stronger without putting hours in the pool and my running bio-mechanics improved giving me stronger performance and injury free trail marathon training. Alex provides a variety of training from heavy weights to light bio-mechanics adapted acrodingly to my racing calendar. I would highly recommend Alex to fellow multi-sport enthusiasts and anyone looking for engaging, knowlegable and fun PT to kick their butt into shape.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training with Alex for about 6 months now. In that time, I’ve been able to go from being mainly a half-marathon runner who occasionally ran 15 or 16 miles, to completely first a 30km trail race, then a hilly trail marathon and finally a very hilly winter 50km ultramarathon. Without suffering any of the injuries or niggles I’d experienced on previous attempts to increase distances. Alex’s training has played an essential roll in helping me achieve this. Her training sessions have helped me develop strength and agility in all my critical muscle groups, both those vulnerable to injury from overuse in running and those that get neglected. It’s been great to come back to training after each race and be able to tweak the training sessions to address each new challenge. Hugely appreciated and recommended.

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Alex now for about 8 months. She is a very knowledgeable trainer, providing information on nutrition as well as physical exercise. She knows just how far she can train you to get the benefits. Adapting lessons each week so you get variety but also targeting particular muscle groups. She is full of enthusiasm and fun to train with. I would heartily recommend her as a trainer.

Fantastic experience: Alexandra helped me reach my goals and provided support and assistance when doing so. It was so much fun working with her and I’d reccomend to anyone looking for a fun PT to consider her services.

Fantastic experience: I have been trained by Alex and she is excellent at leading both group and independent training. Her sessions are engaging and she supports every level of need, I would highly recommend her as a PT!

Fantastic experience: Alex knows her stuff! Almost session I'll try a new exercise and she knows exactly how many reps to do to push me but not go overboard. Very flexible with timing/location. Over the last few months we've done some sessions in the gym when it's open or in the park due to COVID. Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: Alexandra is a brilliant pt. She listened to my needs and catered for them perfectly. She also kept me motivated to keep going. She works around the client. She personalised the training suited to my abilities.

Fantastic experience: Alex has been an amazing personal trainer in every aspect, she is understanding, encouraging, accommodating, and so much fun to work with! As well as working towards your goals, at every session she reads your mood too and tailors each session appropriately, keeping your mind healthy as well as your body. I've never met a PT so invested in her client's wellbeing. Nothing but praise for this fabulous lady!

Fantastic experience: Alex is so much fun to work with. She is excellent at her job and can adapt to any customers needs. I love our sessions. They are both fun and rewarding. Thoroughly recommend her :)

Fantastic experience: Really friendly and will work around your schedule, for example I get my rota trough weekly so she can set up session each week and not so in advance or she can if you can. She’ll go with your pace as well as pushing you to improve and get better. Really enjoyed every session.

Fantastic experience: Alex has helped me lose 2 stone in the past year. I had weekly one on one sessions with her which were always fun and different each week, tailored for me and what I wanted to achieve, She always pushed me to where she knew I could go. Having Alex as a PT meant I worked way harder than I ever would have done on my own. She mixes up the equipment we used which meant I was not only more confident in the gym by myself but I learnt new ways of using the gym. I also went to her spin and LBT classes at tru gym alongside the weekly sessions to keep me motivated. I felt like I had a mountain to climb when I first started with her but she made it possible.

Fantastic experience: I have been to a range of Alex's classes and also PT sessions. All of which have been fun, well led, well organised and delivered professionally. Alex can give you lots of advice on diet and exercise which show fast and miraculous results. Always leave class/pt feeling fitter and stronger and motivated physically and mentally. Highly recommend Alex's expertise to anyone.. Get involved ️‍♀️‍♀️‍♀️

Fantastic experience: Alex is a fantastic PT, she listens to what I want to achieve and can adapt her sessions depending on what I want to work on, and my strengths and weaknesses. Would highly recommend her!
