Leanne will work with you to build a programme that fits into your day, and when the sessions get tough, she’s there to motivate you through them. She specialises in post-surgery recovery, lower back pain, weight loss and medical referrals. Her clients are busy people, so her workouts are goal-oriented to include functional fitness as well as fun.

Marie Therese Schmidt at Atomix
The Trainer
Working out is crucial for our minds and general well-being. Marie aims to have people leave her workouts beaming with a smile and not only knowing, but actually experiencing the incredible things their bodies are capable of.
The Workouts
Marie wants people to enjoy their workout, from the moment they show up all the way through to victoriously collapsing on the floor and feeling an endorphin rush that will keep them in a good mood for the rest of the day.
Why We Love Marie Therese
Let us count the ways: Her passion for and belief in fitness being key to mental and physical wellbeing. Her positive, fun personality shines through, even via Zoom. And her inclusive nature and fair spirit (she offered donation-based classes through the COVID-19 pandemic so those affected could still work out).
Lindsay Hurte at Reebok Crossfit Zürich
The Trainer
Lindsay is a trainer + physio! So you know your body is in good hands. If you are looking for Crossfit, Olympic Weightlifting, Powerlifting, or Gymnastics, Lindsay is your trainer! Anyone who has trained in any of these areas knows that mobility, recovery and technique are every bit as important as moving big weight, which is why Lindsay is the perfect trainer to take your PR's to the next level.
The Workouts
We won't lie to you, they are tough. But tackling your weaknesses is never easy. Don't let this scare you though, good things come to those who challenge themselves. Lindsay offers personal training, mobility assessments, as well as Oly workshops.
