What our clients say about us...

Life coaching helped me realise what is important in my life. How to communicate with my wife better and how to express how I was feeling to both my wife and my friends.
James

Having spent many years just going through the motions at the gym I was wasting my precious time and not achieving any specific goals. I met Kyle in 2003 and after a very inspiring introductory meeting I quickly decided to enter into the fitness coaching program (PFC). My PFC program has had a dramatic impact on how I manage and balance my lifestyle. I now have a convenient channel through which I can review my motivation and goals which is especially important as I travel so much in my working week. This program has had an extremely positive impact on my life and helped me engineer fitness proactively into my daily life. The Green Box team has certainly lived up to and constantly delivered on their commitment to me.
James Turrell - Director Customer Success, EMEA Salesforce.com

It is rare to meet someone who consistently excels in every area of what they do. Having worked with Kyle for the past 9 months the results have substantially exceeded my expectations. The coaching and fitness model that he adopts looks at you as a whole person, his style engages you to succeed and his support and enthusiasm are unlimited. Not only will you look better, feel fitter and be more focused, his incisive approach enables you to continually achieve everything you set out to. Highly recommended.
Anthony McKenna - International HR Director

Twenty years of no training, socialising and a hectic work life had left my body in a mess. When I began training again my aim was to lose weight, but I have gained so much more than that. The training I have undertaken has given me a tremendous amount of energy, which has made my day job feel far less hectic. I feel I am able to work with a greater intensity and find myself less tense and far more relaxed. The weight loss and fitness is merely a sideline to the increased productivity the training has provided me with in my daily life.

Green Box Coaching supports me in achieving my goals in a time economical, professional, friendly and most importantly, enjoyable manner.
W.Dobie Logan - Trustee Chairman

I felt uninspired and dissatisfied in the work place. Green Box Coaching inspired me and gave me clarity with a sense of direction to seize the moment. I left feeling excited and had a real purpose.
Jackie Harding - Horticultural Teacher

Years paying gym membership with either no motivation to go, or seeing no results for the periods I attempted to make an effort, almost saw me give up the idea of ever being fit again. Having suffered a back injury in the past never helped. My last chance was to find a professional, dedicated and understanding personal trainer to kick start and maintain the regime. Kyle was the man. Listening to what I wanted to achieve, taking into account my limits and providing that motivational spirit has reignited the ambition to once again take up the reigns of fitness, and seek those goals that at one point were merely a dream. I can't recommend anyone more for their commitment to my cause, and their profession. Whilst I will never compete in 2012, with Kyle's help I'm back doing things that I loved and long gave up.
Mark Williams, Lawyer

I confess that I was sceptical that anyone could engender me with a desire to go out running, to the gym or rethink my eating habits....but Kyle manages to do all of this with his lovely, bright, lively manner, focus and gently by effective cajoling. He is clearly passionate about achieving results for everyone and to pass on that enthusiam to his clients so it really has longlasting benefits. I can't thank him or recommend him enough.
Eve Bellini, International Finance Director

Nasreen was a tremendous help and support to me when I decided to enter this year's London Triathlon as part of a team. My fitness level was extremely low and I never thought in a million years that I would finish the course. However, Nas gave up her time to come cycling with me and help me towards my fitness goals through a carefully planned fitness regime. She is a brilliant and caring Personal Trainer and I'm not the easiest person to train. An added bonus is that whenever Nas has a holiday, I don't have to lose my training momentum because there is always a trainer from Green Box Coaching ready to bridge the gap. My gratitude goes to Nas and green Box Coaching for all the support, encouragement and brilliant training programmes you gave me over the past year.
Angela Jackson - Company Director

Having had my second child, I was desperate to get back into my pre-pregnancy clothes and get fit. Having spoken to Nas who also has two children, I knew that she would be sympathetic to my goals. With a nine month old baby, I knew it wasn't going to be that easy, but Nas was very understanding and patient. With her encouragement and guidance, I managed to lose the weight and unwanted inches! She also advised me on my diet as I was still breast feeding. I reached my target weight loss and felt like me again! Nas made the training so enjoyable which is why I used to really look forward to our sessions. With my new nutritional knowledge I have managed to maintain my target weight so will always be incredibly grateful to Nas.
Ali Clarke

I have been attending the gym for over 2 years now on a consistent basis but needed that extra drive and booking personal training sessions with Nas has given me that. I was coasting at my gym sessions whereas I am now being pushed to do more and work harder with a fantastic coach who listens to my needs and is a great motivator. The coaching has really helped me to diversify into different areas of the gym and work harder with clear benefits and more enjoyment. I would recommend them to anyone who is seriously interested in not only keeping fit but ensuring that you are using the right technique so that your hard work pays off in the right areas!
Arlene Carson - Manager, Corporate Banking

The training and lifestyle guidance that Nas and Green Box Coaching has given me has been fantastic. From the development of an action plan to monitoring progress and giving wonderful encouragement. It all adds to a better level of health, fitness and well being. And it's been made to feel so effortless. The mix of personal fitness training in the gym together with diet and lifestyle guidance really works well and I have very quickly felt the difference in day to day life, Thanks very much.
Jonathan Paull - Company Director

Clare's knowledge, kindness and warm caring personality ensured that I had  a treatment tailor made for me; I was relaxed as soon as I walked through the door. My family and I have been seeing Clare for over 5-years for both sports related injuries and more recently acupuncture - and we all agree she has healing hands!
Catherine Robinson - Personal Stylist

Before I had my consultation with Maria, my wardrobe consisted of black, brown and grey. I had thought (I now know incorrectly) that these were the most flattering colours anyone could wear. However, Maria showed me where I was going wrong. She systematically went through each colour that suited me and explained why. She patiently explained my 'rules' on how I should wear my colours for my 'best' look , mixing and matching my neutrals with more flattering fashion colours all suited to me.. Maria is very patient, friendly and thorough and she has a natural flare for colour and fashion which she wants to share. The intensive two hour one to one session I had with Maria changed my wardrobe. I have since bought colours that have transformed how I look; everybody comments positively – and I feel and look much younger. I would highly recommend this experience.
Donna - Medical PA, London

I've spent years wandering aimlessly up and down the high street, desperately seeking clothes that would lift and excite me, only to find that, when I got home, the colour was all wrong or the style was lacking that something special. Having met up with Maria one Saturday afternoon, I was about to embark on a life-changing experience. Maria produced a multitude of colour swatches and effortlessly went through them all to find the colours and shades that suited my skin tone, and demonstrated which colour combinations went well together and advised me on how best to wear them. The truth was there before me and I could see where I had been going wrong. Maria then gave me a make-over using make-up she felt best enhanced my natural colouring and the difference was amazing. My complexion was brighter, I felt more confident and I now had direction. Maria has found the new, true me and I like what I see! Thank you Maria!
Liz - Wokingham

I thoroughly enjoyed my session with Maria. Right from the start she was totally focused on me and how I could improve the way I look and feel about myself. It was amazing to see how just one colour could make all the difference and literally light up my face. She introduced colours I had never thought would suit me like purple and greens. She also explained how colours can be worn not only on their own but in contrast with 2, 3 or 4 other colours and how accessories such as jewellery and scarves can give a fantastic result when using the correct shades. The other part of the session I really enjoyed was how to apply make-up and which colours to use. Maria patiently went through the whole routine and encouraged me to ask questions so that I could benefit as much as possible. It felt like I was having a 'pamper' day and I walked away feeling younger, exhilarated and positive. I now feel I can be braver and bolder when I look for clothes and colours and Maria has told me that she is ‘looking forward to seeing me grow in confidence’. Thank you.
