Having had three previous PTs, I was at a loss as to what to do next, as nothing seemed to click into place. I was sick of the same uninterested PTs with the same plans and no progression.
I decided I needed to give it one last chance and I’m so glad I did.

Teknique was recommended by a friend and from the minute I walked through the door, I knew it was going to be different. I had big goals, what I initially thought were impossible to achieve.
I booked my taster session with Danny and then agreed to go forward with one session a week.
I soon became hooked, moved to two sessions a week, and also got involved in the Ladies Kickboxing and group PT sessions.

Witnessing my goals become a reality and planning beyond them was incredible. My body is stronger than I could have ever imagined, and I am now in the BEST shape of my life. The confidence I have gained is unbelievable and I am only just getting started!!!!
Danny has been incredible, knowledgeable, and extremely patient. He has pushed me through my barriers to help me reach my goals and go beyond them.
I am now lifting above my body weight, running 5ks, something I have not done in ten years, and lifting weights that are triple what I started with, all within the space of four months.

On top of this, I have met some incredible people and become part of the most amazing community. I have joined group hikes and Tribe training, which is something Danny puts on in his own time, and it is all part of the amazing service they offer.
I absolutely love this place, I cannot praise it enough, and it has become the highlight of my week.
I only regret that I did not find them sooner.

TL;DR: intelligent, personalised strength training that’s genuinely helped with chronic back pain. Supportive, adaptable and highly effective. Do it.

I joined Teknique in January hoping to improve my strength and manage the chronic upper back pain I’ve lived with for nearly two decades. I honestly wasn’t sure how much difference it would make, but I’d tried everything else (physio, chiro, yoga etc etc) and I was maxing out my ibuprofen usage so felt I had very little to lose.

Twelve sessions in and the improvement has been remarkable. I’m stronger than I’ve been in a long time, moving better and going days without even thinking about my back. Anyone who’s dealt with persistent pain knows how massive that is. I think I’ve only had 1 dose of ibuprofen in the last six weeks! Just as importantly I feel hopeful about what I might be able to achieve next.

My sessions with Danny are fab, each one is personalised and adapted as needed to match what I can do that day. No matter what’s going on at work or home I know I’ll leave a session feeling physically and mentally better. There’s no ego or ‘push through it’ mentality and progress is celebrated, even when those wins feel small. It’s not just great coaching, there’s a real community with monthly walks and group sessions that makes it feel like more than just a gym.

If you’re unsure about where to start, or you’re dealing with pain or physical restrictions and want a personal trainer who knows how to work with that, then Teknique is a safe, supportive and incredibly effective place to come to.

100% recommend, I wish I’d joined years ago.

So I've been with quite a few PT's before now and had some very bad experiences, but a friend of mine has been going to Teknique and seen fantastic results, so I thought I'd give it a go. Danny is so knowledgeable, approachable, encouraging and friendly. Located in their own training unit so you don't have to wait around to use equipment or feel intimidated in a gym setting. Both Danny and Jake are lovely down to earth guys I could recommend them more!
