Dan Heatley
ABOUT ME
I have been working in the fitness industry since 2006 and operating as a qualified personal trainer since 2011. After years of coaching in busy commercial gyms, I co-founded my own private training studio in 2015.
This is a completely private, non-commercial facility. We do not run small groups, we do not host big classes, and we are not open to the general public. We specialise strictly in 1-1 and 1-2 personal training, ensuring you get 100% of our focus.
WHY CHOOSE ME
Let’s be clear: I am not a “transformation coach.” I am not a 12-week fat loss specialist pushing fad diets. I am a longevity coach.
My philosophy relies on the 1% rule: making small, manageable changes that alter your habits for the long term. That is infinitely more valuable than any crash diet or extreme training regime.
Think about the TV show The Biggest Loser. Contestants are placed in an extremely restricted environment with no outside choices—essentially trapped on a desert island. Fast-forward a year, and most are in a worse position than when they started. Why? Because they never built sustainable habits. The moment they returned to reality—juggling work, kids, and daily life—they reverted to type.
Health is not a race. Just because you aren’t ticking every single box right now doesn’t mean you won’t get there. We will figure it out together, one sustainable habit at a time. I promise you that.
Personal Trainer Preston - Testimonials
Kenny
When I first started training I was over weight, and energy levels were low. With Dan’s guidance and motivation I’ve lost almost 2 stone and am looking and feeling better then I ever have done.
Hilary
I have been training with Dan for some time now and in total I have lost 5 stone of body fat! The difference in my strength, both physical and mental, is amazing. Dan understands how far outside your comfort zone to push you without once making the goal unreachable and gives constant encouragement.
Heather
In the time I have been training with Dan I have lost over 2 & 1/2 stone & feel fitter than I have ever felt. This is due to his motivation, dedication, understanding & patience.
Lee
I’ve been training with Dan for some time now, every session is different which keeps it exciting and fun, don’t get me wrong it’s hard work but worth it, I’ve lost 3 stone so far and feel great, it’s not just about the weight it’s about the confidence that feeling good brings!!
