Noel's Education and Experience
I hold a strong foundation in exercise, nutrition and lifestyle management with a Masters Degree in Exercise + Health Science [Bristol University] and a Bachelors degree in Physical Education and Pyschology [Birmingham University]. I have also worked within fitness & wellness for over 23 years, throughout Europe, USA and Australia.
I started off in fitness back in 1989 as the assistant manager of a small health + tennis club in Maidstone, Kent (UK) – now part of Fitness First.
One year later I embarked on a 10 month round-world trip working in Australia as a Fitness Instructor in RCM Healthlands at Bondi Junction, Sydney, with Richard Chew.
On my return, I spent time as a Fitness Instructor with Espree and Dave Giampalo, before joining Pinnacle as Fitness Manager at Sutton + Cheam with Tom Lee.
Noel's Blue-Chip Corporate Background
Having worked for the best at that time, I was able to beat off stiff competition to become the original Fitness Manager at The Chelsea Harbour Club – still one of the most luxurious health and tennis clubs in the world today. There I became one of the first fitness professionals in the UK to become a Certified Health + Fitness Instructor of the American College of Sports Medicine and got to advise and support royalty, sporting professionals, numerous celebrities & highly successful business people. An amazing experience for someone in their early 20's!
Later I became an Exercise Physiologist with BUPA before spending 2yr with Technogym (Europe’s largest manufacturer of exercise & fitness equipment) as the UK Education Manager. There I instructed Fitness Instructors throughout England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland on exercise + fitness training (within the leading health clubs). Plus I got to assist several Premiership football clubs (Liverpool, Newcastle, Middlesbrough, Man City and Charlton) with player fitness & conditioning.

I’ve also had several articles published in Fit Pro magazine (over 75,000 members) and national magazines.
Even today I continue to study the latest fitness, nutrition, wellness and success coaching literature putting my extensive knowledge, expertise and motivational abilities in consistently high demand with intelligent and professional clients in their 30's to 50's who simply aspire to "bettering themselves"!
My motto? "The only limits are the ones you set yourself!
