“I have worked with Leslie as my personal trainer and, most recently, with her online programs during the difficult isolation period over the last few months. Leslie is an excellent motivator and communicator. She works with the whole person – mentally, emotionally and physically. She is skilled, sensible, thoughtful and a pleasure to work with and talk to. The results I have achieved are largely due to Leslie’s perfect combination of diverse training methods and programs, and challenging, yet achievable, goal setting. I am stronger and happier with myself. Leslie is truly an excellent trainer!”
– Penny S.
“The studio where Prime Personal Training is located is only a 15 minute drive from downtown Hull and worth the drive. It’s where you can be yourself and work with awesome personal trainers in an intimate setting. Leslie, the owner, has been my personal trainer for a couple of years. She’s more than a personal trainer that helps with physical health but she is also a great coach providing an holistic approach to health. At the end of each training sessions I feel energized, positive and strong physically and mentally. Leslie is the #1 personal trainer.”
