DARYL

Hey, I’m Daryl! Owner of Coached By Daryl and Co-Owner here at Evolution Of Fitness.

I’m a big advocate for strength training, weight management and mental health. I personally train mainly in the Powerlifting/S&C domain and love it.

My clients vary from General Population weight loss, all the way to athletes in the UK and around the world.

I have been coaching for a number of years now and have gained a lot of experience with the psychology of training which I implement with all my clients to help them continually be consistent and progress in their training.

I am really grateful to have the opportunity to own EOF and cannot wait to grow the gym with the most amazing members and create a community we are all proud to be part of.

RICKY

Hey, I’m Rick AKA Pickle.

I am the owner of Resalve and co-owner here at Evolution Of Fitness. I come from a calisthenics and functional movement background and have mixed these varied styles, along with a healthy dose of traditional weight lifting to form my own brand of fitness that I refer to as, Foundational Strength.

I am also big on helping people recover from addiction through fitness and deliver classes for several charities around the area.

The psychological and mental health aspect of fitness has always been a big thing for me and has helped me through my own personal journey, one which I now use to help others through theirs.

ASHLEIGH

Hi I’m Ashleigh. I teach pole fitness and strength & conditioning.

I started my fitness journey 4 years ago when I decided I wanted to do something fun to stay fit. I started going to pole fitness classes and fell in love with the sport.

Since then I had always wanted to share this love and help people gain confidence and get stronger.

As an instructor I get to do just this and love seeing people grow and improve as they learn new ways to move and get fitter and stronger.

PETE

Hi I’m Pete. Owner of PJ Sports Therapy and an S and C coach here at Evolution Of Fitness.

Over the years I have worked with professional athletes, people with chronic pain and everyone in between. I have played sports all my life (and suffered the odd injury). I know how lower back pain can affect your day-to-day life and mental state, which is why I chose to specialise in this area.

I like to think of my approach as simple so everyone can understand and tailor it to you. I have a great track record of treating any form of back pain such as sciatica, sports injury, chronic conditions, etc.

Life is a lot better when you can bend over, pick something up, and be active and mobile with your day! so if you are suffering – get in touch.

MEG

Hi, I'm Megan!

I've been into fitness for as long as I can remember. Towards the back end of covid I found calisthenics, and fell in love. Much to my delight, I then found Evolution of Fitness and with that, a new fitness family!

Our bodies are made for moving and we should use our free time to exercise this! I'm passionate about teaching and really enjoy sharing my love and knowledge for calisthenics, as I believe we are all capable of incredible things.

RACHEL

Hi, I'm Rachel!

I’ve always been into sports and exercise. Participating in ballet, football and rugby before discovering a love for lifting weights.

Since starting at the EOF I’ve progressed with powerlifting and Strongwoman, coming second at Britains Strongest Natural Women has been the highlight so far.

I love sharing my passion for sport and introducing beginners to lifting. Watching improve their strength is rewarding but the best part of this job is seeing people’s confidence and mental resilience soar.
