“I was the ‘biggest' I’d ever been and fed up of not fitting in my lovely clothes – and the fact that my husband always found time to cycle! I needed something for me.
I had a goal weight in mind – but through Sophie’s influence, that’s all changed.
Firefly stories
A mindset change for Kim
I’ve re-wired my brain to focus on what you can gain from exercise - not what it makes you lose.
I’ve gained confidence in my body, I’ve gained strength, I can out-trampoline my 7 year old (well nearly!) and I’ve also regained my old clothes! She’s made exercise fun for the first time in my life. I cannot thank her enough for the mindset shift she has allowed me to make. You rock Soph!”

“Buggyfit was a great way to begin exercising again after I had my baby - I felt very weak, especially my core, and I trusted Sophie on my journey to regain strength. When my baby was ten months old, we started outgrowing Buggyfit – she was less happy to sit in the pram and I was feeling stronger.
Firefly stories
Lisa’s journey back to strong!
At first the thought of going to a ‘normal’ fitness class was daunting – but I have no regrets.
So far I’ve joined morning Fit & Strong as well as Workout & Play, as it gives my baby the opportunity to play. I am amazed how quickly I’ve settled into Firefly - Sophie creates a very inclusive and friendly atmosphere and I can highly recommend her classes.”

It can be hard figuring out goals after kids. We’re all about changing mindsets – part of the PT service is working with you to reshape some ‘real’ goals for you, now.
Real goals
EVERYONE deserves to be fit and healthy. It’s time the fitness industry dropped the ‘perfect bodies’ and busted a few myths. It’s not the 1990s any more!

Our time slots are as flexible as possible to work around drop offs, bedtimes, and work!

What qualifications do you have?
I bring a wealth of expertise to my personal training and outdoor fitness classes. I hold certifications from the National Academy of Sports Medicine, including an Active IQ Level 3 Award in Supporting Pre and Postnatal Clients with Exercise and Nutrition, Active IQ Level 3 Diploma in Gym Instructing and Personal Training, and an Active IQ Level 2 Certificate in Gym Instructing.
Where does training take place?
Welcome to my fitness sanctuary! Training happens in my purpose-built boutique studio nestled in the heart of Wymans Brook, on the northwest side of Cheltenham.
How do I know if I’m ready to start exercising?
If you feel physically ready to move and have received guidance from your healthcare provider where appropriate, you’re likely ready to begin.
Our classes are designed to support women at every stage — whether you’re pregnant, navigating postnatal recovery, returning after a long break, or simply wanting to build strength and confidence.
Everything is adaptable to your current level. Exercises can be modified, progressed, or scaled back so you always work at a pace that feels safe and appropriate for your body.
If you're unsure, feel free to get in touch — we can chat through your situation before you join.
