Debbie is our functional fitness Coach and runs the Team Elysium classes.  She runs the UFF classes on a Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. “Hi guys, I’ve always been one to try my hand at anything sports-wise, but as I got older the gym became a happy place, away from the stress and negativity, life can throw at you.  Becoming a coach has given me the ability to add some positivity to peoples lives and hope they find enjoyment and a little escape in the process.

I got into functional fitness due to the variation it offers and actively promotes, the aim to be well rounded, fitter, healthier in all aspects, as well as being well balanced and adaptable.  Great conditions for whatever life may throw at you”.
