  • Inspired

    I’m constantly inspired and amazed by the level of knowledge and variety of ways the trainers and group instructors at Pharos coach their classes and clients. It’s highly unlikely that you’ll find a gym or fitness environment where correct functional movement is the foundation of a progressive wellness program. It’s evident that Pharos’s mission is to empower everyone there to acquire and understand the skills of proper and functional movement that will last a lifetime.

  • Real Talk, Humour and Fitness

    Just started on the podcast after receiving fitness programming from Matt Owen and Pieter Vodden.

    Informative discussion between the guys on every episode, and real talk that I can relate too.

    It’s a shame I’m in the UK and Pharos is across the pond!
