Let us help you build the healthy life you deserve!
After 20 years working in the NHS within Science and Quality Management, with a Degree & Masters degree in Biomedical Science, Diploma in Management, Diploma in Executive Coaching and gaining Chartered Scientist and Chartered Quality Professional status, my lifestyle and working life changed when my little girl was due to start school in 2016.
I also have 15 years plus as an archery coach and archery competitor, touring the Country to compete and so I decided at 42yrs old to pursue a sporting/fitness career further.
I retrained as a L2 Fitness Instructor, L3 Personal Trainer and L3 Sports Massage Therapist, and have continuous professional development through courses and training such as Aerower Jumple, Kangoo, Pole Dance Instruction, Rockfit, Fitsteps, Aerial Hammock, aerial hoop, Groove n Glow and Bellyfit instruction. I did this after getting myself fit through my own personal training programme and attending other fitness classes, losing over 3 stone in 6 months.
So what can I offer you? Tank Girl Training offers PT, group PT, Bootcamp and Circuits, Box n Core Fit, Flexibility & toning, Pole PT, Bellyfit, Groove n Glow, aerial arts, Archery and Executive Coaching and Archery Instructor Tutoring and assessments. I use lots of varied equipment, tools and techniques to support support you along your health journey at your pace but with fun being the main focus.
I love life, family, friends, fitness, learning, teaching and archery and enjoy meeting and supporting others on their health and wellbeing journeys.

⭐️About Sergeant Sarah⭐️
“Hi am Sarah am I am pretty much a human labrador! Full of excitement energy and enthusiasm!
I was the girl at school with every excuse to miss PE so safe to say fitness hasn't always been a part of my life however after losing weight a few years ago I finally decided to take the scary step to do fitness classes and I've never looked back! It wasn't the scary environmental I thought it would be but a fun friendly place where we laughed just as much as we sweated and I loved it.
I'm so happy to be joining the team and can't wait to get stuck in.”
