Get to know Rachel Canter

How did you get started in the business of fitness and wellness?
I took a career change from recruitment. I wanted to work in an area I was passionate about.

What do you love about your job?
Helping clients reach their health & fitness goals. Sense of autonomy and working in a sector that always has new ideas and trends.

When I see the positive results of clients work, realising I was instrumental to that and I could make a positive change to people’s lives.

Training a small group of women for the Tesco race for life. They did really well on the day and enjoyed themselves.
