Been doing rehab training with Jo at Functional Fitness since last October. Jo’s knowledge & understanding is outstanding, works with you to build strength & improve ability & fitness, no matter what your ability is, in 1:1 sessions or really friendly classes. All through lockdown classes & support was still there on line & now the new gym is open it’s done in a really lovely safe & comfortable environment. Feel very much part of the functional fitness family
