Movement for mind and body

Sole2Soul was founded in 2015 with a simple belief: that movement can make a powerful difference to both our physical and mental wellbeing. Since then, we’ve supported people from all walks of life to become stronger, healthier and more confident, while developing a more positive relationship with exercise and their wellbeing.

With more than 20 years of combined experience in mental health care and personal training, we bring together professional fitness expertise with a deeper understanding of the connection between physical activity and mental health. Our approach is evidence-based, individual and focused on helping you find a way of being active that works for you.

We’ve seen first-hand how movement can change lives. Exercise can improve not only our physical health, but also how we feel, think, sleep, connect with others and cope with the challenges of everyday life.

Regular exercise can:

• Improve mood and reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression

• Reduce stress and support cardiovascular health

• Reduce the risk of conditions such as cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes

• Support healthy weight management and improve strength and fitness

• Build confidence, self-esteem and a sense of achievement

• Improve energy, motivation and overall wellbeing

• Support better sleep

• Help maintain cognitive health as we age

• Create opportunities for connection and improve social wellbeing

There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to exercise. That’s why our services are designed around you, your needs and what you want to achieve.

Our services

1:1 Personal Training

Our 1:1 personal training sessions begin with a consultation and assessment, giving us the opportunity to understand your individual needs, experiences and goals. From there, we create a bespoke training programme designed around you.

Whether you want to improve your fitness and strength, become more active, build confidence or support your mental wellbeing, we’ll work with you to make exercise a positive and sustainable part of your life.

Where appropriate, sessions can incorporate approaches such as mindfulness and behavioural activation, helping you build motivation, develop healthier routines and stay focused on the changes you want to make.

Our aim isn’t simply to help you achieve a short-term goal. It’s to help you develop the knowledge, confidence and habits to keep looking after yourself for the long term.

Small Group Training

Small group training is a great way to work towards your health and fitness goals while enjoying the motivation and connection that comes from exercising with others.

Sessions are fully bespoke and can be arranged for family, friends or small groups, at a time and location that works for you. We’ll tailor each session to your group’s interests, abilities and goals, incorporating a mixture of exercises, games and challenges to keep things varied, enjoyable and engaging.

Exercising together can also provide an important opportunity to connect with others, helping to support both physical and social wellbeing.

Virtual Personal Training

Our online 1:1 personal training makes expert support more accessible, wherever you are.

Sessions take place virtually, allowing you to exercise from the comfort of your own home while still benefiting from the guidance, motivation and accountability of an experienced personal trainer with a background in mental health.

It’s a flexible way to stay active, build healthy routines and keep working towards your goals, even when getting to a gym or attending sessions in person isn’t practical.

Training Plans & Coaching

If you’re already comfortable exercising independently and would like the structure and accountability of working with a personal trainer, our bespoke training plans offer a flexible and cost-effective option.

We’ll create a tailor-made monthly training plan based on your fitness, experience, goals and lifestyle, giving you a clear structure to follow at your own pace.

Alongside your plan, we’ll arrange regular phone or video calls to discuss how you’re getting on, celebrate progress, troubleshoot any challenges and make adjustments where needed. This provides the accountability and professional support to help you stay motivated and keep moving forward.

Training plans and coaching are delivered virtually.
