Raquel is a fun, enthusiastic and passionate trainer who pushes me to achieve my best every session without being ‘pushy’. I have been doing group training with Raquel for years and am constantly impressed by her ability to ensure each session is tailored to every individual’s needs, no matter their level of fitness or ability.
We’ve been training with Raquel for more than 2 years. Although it’s a group class she gives each of us one on one attention and feedback according to our individual fitness level. We have all improved our health and fitness levels. We really enjoy training with Raquel.
Raquel made a big change in my life. Her perseverance, sports knowledge, punctuality and people skills in her career have built up a fantastic trainer that can help people at any age or with any ability gain their confidence and spirit back and reach their dream objectives.
We have been training with Raquel for more than 1 year. She is a fantastic personal trainer. She is very knowledgeable and customizes her workouts to suit our personal goals. It is a pleasure working with Raquel as she is personable and friendly. She is definitely highly recommended.
I have been training with Raquel for more than a year and have loved every moment. I find being able to train at such a young age allows me to get in extra exercise for the week. Raquel is so lovely, encouraging, supportive and has helped me to become fitter and healthier.
