I was in my 40’s when started my fitness journey, desperate to find a better way to improve my confidence and 'lose fat and tone up' when everything I tried had failed.
It was a struggle not knowing the best way to fuel and train my body, lots of trial and error. Once I learned more about training and nutrition I physically and mentally became a different person. I gained more confidence which helped me do things I never thought I could.
Resistance training is incredibly empowering—it builds both mental and physical strength, making you feel unstoppable in every area of life. My mission is to help others experience this powerful transformation for themselves.
Whatever your goal; fat loss, strength training, improving fitness and health, gaining confidence, getting a better relationship with food, feeling confident going to the gym, a photoshoot or prepping for a bodybuilding competition I’m here for you and can help you achieve great things.
If you’re a complete beginner or maybe just feel like you’re getting nowhere contact me so I can help you reach your goals and attain the best version of yourself. Working together to help make permanent and sustainable lifestyle changes.
As a certified female personal trainer based in Stockport I’m dedicated to helping women & men build strength, lose fat, gain muscle, and feel confident in their own skin.

Whether you’re looking to boost your energy, tone up, or simply feel stronger and more empowered, I’m here to guide and support you every step of the way.
I’m committed to you and your goals at all times – not just in sessions.

My professionalism is shown by bringing energy to our sessions and responding to messages in a timely manner, doing what I say I’m going to do and creating a supportive working environment for your sessions.
I’m registered with ICO and offer confidentiality that I will not share your story, progress or struggles with anyone unless permitted by you.
I want to educate not just train you; I will educate you as to why my choices are right for you. The fitness industry is a fast-paced environment and with changes in research occurring frequently I will be ready to change my stance on certain issues if research shows something new that will benefit you.
I will always be positive in your ability to reach your goals and will only set you targets I know you can achieve.
I’m non judgemental and give respect – my language and tone – (both written and verbal) will demonstrate my respect for you.

"After spending the last 2 years during lockdown watching my weight increase and my confidence decline, I decided I needed to make some life changes. I contacted Claire @tinyandstrong and booked my very first ever PT session! Claire has been amazing and is super encouraging. I have a really achievable diet plan, weekly exercise plan, and regular check-ins with Claire via email and messenger. I feel focused and positive as Claire explains everything so clearly. Taking my measurements weekly shows the changes already and I'm not obsessed with weighing myself! It's early days but already I'm looking forward to the long-term changes this will have on my body and my health with Claire's help and direction."
"I’ve always stuck to classes at the gym and never been confident enough to use the weights area. Id peek in and wish I knew what to with all the machine but it looked too daunting to try. After a few months with Claire, following a comprehensive training program she designed for me, I now feel confident to train once a week alone. If I get stuck Claire is always at the end of the phone and has been so supportive. Highly recommend her services and a few of my friends have now signed up with her after seeing the changes in my shape and confidence."
"I’m looking to compete late 2023 and have been taking posing lessons with Claire twice a month to ensure my stage presence, poses and transitions look natural and highlight my physique. She explains everything very clearly and takes me through step by step ensuring I’m happy before moving on to learning something new. Even though my stage debut isn’t til next year I know these regular sessions, plus the practice at home using the recordings, will give me a competitive edge and so much more confidence."
"Claires communication has been amazing from start to finish. It's has been the right balance of supportive and informative without being too much. Nothing more. Her commitment to helping me engage was second to none. She was encouraging and inspiring all the way. "
"Thank you for giving me the massive kick start that I needed to get myself on a path of better health and fitness. I have lots going on in my life but you have been supportive and encouraging every week. I will definately be back to continue this journey but expect you'll be fully booked! Thank you for all your support again. "
