Hi, I'm Glyn!
My name is Glyn Thompson, and I am the Founder and Personal Trainer for Yes Mate!
I am a certified Level 3 Personal Trainer and have an Honours Degree in Sports Psychology (2:1) from the University of South Wales. I have extensive experience of coaching football to children, men and women across a period of 20+ years, and a passion for helping people improve their health and fitness in a way that they find enjoyable and engaging. I am fully PVG checked and have completed the Children Welfare and Protection Scotland course, and have the appropriate insurance to cover the provision of Fitness Instruction/Personal Training.
I want to provide a place for people to improve their Physical Fitness through group classes, with a focus on fun and challenging exercise and a positive and encouraging environment for everyone.
Why "Yes Mate!"?...
We all have times where we don't feel as positive as we would like about our physical and mental health. We might say "no" to things more readily, and miss out on opportunities to socialise and have fun because we don't feel confident in our ability to move our body effectively. I want to help you to say "Yes Mate!" to more requests from friends and family to go out and do things, like play football, walk in the hills, go for a bike ride, play tig, all manner of things. Yes Mate! Outdoor Fitness Sessions will move and challenge your body in a fun and functional way with other likeminded people and will help you feel Fitter, Faster, Stronger and Happier. It will help build new habits and have you saying "Yes Mate!" to more things.
There is no focus on weight loss, measurements, diet/nutrition/calorie counting and instead the focus is on helping you get better at moving your body and improving on your physical performance.
If this all sounds good then get in touch!
Are you ready? Yes Mate!
