There’s far too many things to pick from! If I’ve got to narrow it down to just one, it’s very rewarding helping someone on a potentially life-changing journey. I get to see real change in my clients, whether that be in their overall health, weight, or attitude.
I was always athletic at school. I was a part of as many sports clubs as possible and I would never seem to slow down – being active is simply who I am. When I first joined a gym I quickly learnt that I could set new milestones and beat them again and again. Being able to see progression was fascinating and pushing myself to new limits was great. I became friends with the personal trainers at my gym and the job they were describing was simply perfect for me. I then booked onto my first training course and the rest was history!
I have a Master Personal Trainer Diploma, certifications in sports massage, and even ante and postnatal instructing. I’m certified to instruct cycling, weight lifting, and circuit training.
I can work with clients from home, at a local gym, in public areas/parks, from my private workout studio, or even at their office. Modern life is busy and can be difficult to balance, so we can discuss the most suitable options for your routine and budget.

I’ve been focusing on strength training with Herman for 5 months and I’m very happy with my progress. I can feel muscles developing and my pants are much looser in the waistline. Herman is very knowledgeable, challenges me, and makes me feel motivated. I would recommend his services to anyone looking to incorporate strength training into their fitness routine.

I started with Svetness because I wanted to lose weight and get back in shape. From the beginning, everything was easy to set up and the support was great. My trainer really took the time to understand my goals and made each session focused but manageable. Working out at home has made a huge difference for me. It helped me stay consistent and avoid excuses. Over the last few months I have lost weight, gained strength, and feel more confident in my body. This has been one of the best choices I have made for my health.

I have been training with Svetness for a few months now and it has been a really good experience. Everything from the beginning was simple and easy to get started. What makes it great is my trainer Isaiah. He is amazing. Very calm but also knows exactly what he is doing and keeps me motivated. I have worked with other trainers before and it always felt like they were either too aggressive or not really interested. Isaiah finds the right balance. He listens, stays supportive, and adjusts based on how I feel that day. The workouts are never boring and I actually look forward to them, which I never expected. I feel stronger, more confident, and overall just in a much better place both physically and mentally.
