Hi, I'm Jay
Founder of Awaken Fitness
After 10 years in the film industry, I became a qualified trainer in 2018 to create a better work/life balance and spend more time with my family.
With private personal training studios in Aston Clinton & Ealing, I help people who want to improve their lives through sustainable behaviour change. Whether you're unsure where to start, want to build confidence, or improve your overall health, I’m here to support you.
My approach is built on two key pillars: personalised training aligned with your goals, and genuine care for your journey. Every person is different - your fitness plan should be too.

These aren't just transformations - they're lifestyle changes
I’d never been to a gym before, but Jay made me feel comfortable right away. Now I’m lifting weights, running, and feeling fitter in just a short time. Jay has boosted my confidence and motivation -
I always leave our sessions feeling great.

I started training with Jay after being diagnosed with heart failure, following my cardiologist’s advice. I found him online, and and six months later, I feel like I’ve got a new lease on life - less joint pain, better mobility, and improved breathing.

Jay is an outstanding trainer. Over a year of online sessions, he’s greatly improved my understanding of strength training and nutrition. He’s supportive, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares - by far the best trainer I’ve worked with.

After struggling with herniated discs for 2 years, I reached out to Jay, and it’s been life-changing. His patient approach helped me rebuild confidence, regain strength, and return to a more active, normal life - I’m so glad I found him.

Cybersecurity Consultant
I felt unfit, unmotivated, with little time for exercise and an old ankle injury holding me back. Since starting weekly sessions with Jay, I’ve built strength, improved my habits, and now genuinely enjoy taking that time each week to focus on myself.

I’ve been training with Jay for 18 months, and it’s been a game-changer. He’s helped me improve my strength, fitness and mindset around food. He's even supported my Achilles rupture recovery - Jay offers truly well-rounded support.
