I first went to Vision about 2 ½ years ago as I wanted to build up endurance for an upcoming 6-week trip to South America.  Initially I had several trainers and then on my return from holidays I was assigned to Matt.  What a trainer extraordinaire he is - he knows my mantra is "success comes in cans not cannots" and challenges me to achieve more at each session.  He managed to get me back into the studio after a hiatus of 7 months (and lots of tears) when I had shoulder surgery and the surgeon steered me away from any weight lifting. 

Slowly together we have built up my strength and surprisingly only in the last month I am back doing chin ups which I love.  I could not have achieved what I have without the steady guidance of Matt and the encouragement of the trainers and the clients of Vision - it is such a warm, friendly environment to walk into at 5.30am each morning and each trainer greets you by name - a rarity in the industry I'm sure. 

I have made some wonderful friends who have supported me every step of the way - my favourite class is beach fitness with Dillon who in his own way pushes us to achieve excellence.  Thank you Vision for being such a large part of my life - you are all like family to me!!
