SLADE FIT

Hi Guys!

 

My name is Dan and I’m the Slade behind Slade Fit. Welcome to my website! That sounded fun to say!!!! 

 

So a bit about me! I am a Level 3 Qualified Personal Trainer, with a huge passion for fitness and mental health. I worked at Nuffield Health Bloomsbury for 3 years, and in that time I retained an incredibly loyal client list, as well as taking on roles as the Rehabilitation Specialist and Personal Trainer Lead. I also have lots of experience running group classes and workshops, so can train both in a team and with individuals.

​

My background is as an actor and musical theatre performer, an industry I am very much still a part of. This is a field that hugely relies on aesthetics, so I first got into training, as so many do, to improve my physique. However, being a performer is not always easy and can take its toll on your mental health.

 

I suffer with anxiety and have struggled massively with my own self worth in the past. I quickly realised that fitness hugely benefitted my mental health. Having a routine and being in control of something really helped me to set goals, focus on what was important to me, and change my mindset.

 

Fitness is absolutely a mental game, and it’s when you attach the 2 together, the physical and the mental aspects, that the real magic starts to happen! A magic that can be applied to training and life in general!! My only competition is me and the only person standing in my way, is ME!

 

My biggest drive is helping people make changes in their lives, whether that’s physical changes like achieving the dream body or undoing the need for surgery, or mental changes such as realising self worth for the first time or having the confidence to wear the outfit they always wanted to! If I can make someone feel better than when they started, that is a huge win for me…a win that gets me up in the morning!!! 

 

So if you are thinking about it, be brave and take the plunge! Let’s have fun while we smash your physical and mental goals!!!
