Abbeycroft Leisure and specifically our fitness coach teams have been lucky enough to work with Keith, using his ingenious approach he engaged the team with a clever, passionate and hugely relevant workshop. The techniques, skills and overall messages have helped shift our teams mindset and given a new level of enthusiasm.

One of the things that’s so remarkable about Chris is he demonstrates not only mastery for delivering customer education and technical product training modules, but also the willingness and ability to take on and execute new projects that are both difficult and critical to the department’s growth.

Keith has been fantastic as a training partner for Serco Leisure for many years. He has worked with us to develop bespoke training programmes that support our strategy and obtained CIMSPA accreditation for these sessions. Keith is one of the most charismatic presenters I have ever seen and the team really look forward to his sessions, the feedback is always first class. Keith’s has been a key partner in inspiring our teams, his name is almost legendary amongst our instructor teams and senior management alike throughout our business.

Having looked for an individual to support and help drive the creation, support and direction of a newly formed Fitness Academy for well over 3 years, I met with Keith Smith who straight away seemed to be more of an entertainer than a tutor, I must point out that I mean this is the best possible way. When dealing with Keith in a learning environment you cannot help to be both engaged and challenged whilst maintaining a sense of education.
Following our meeting in a kit supplier training session, I quickly realised that Keith was the type of individual that shared my beliefs in how a fitness coach should behave, act and support when facilitating exercise prescription to any person in a fitness setting. We very quickly brought together the required service, support and environment that has allowed the creation of the Activate Fitness academy, Sefton Council. Keith and I have put in place the systems and processes that not only have allowed the creation of my Academy but are also well on the way to developing my fitness team into a self-contained and self-supporting team of tutors.
I cannot recommend his services enough. Top tutor, top entertainer and more importantly a top Bloke

Keith is an excellent trainer and highly professional. He is an expert in his field and able to pass on this knowledge effectively. His enthusiasm and passion is infectious. I would have no hesitation in recommending to Keith to any organisation.

Chris is a consummate professional, and an asset to any team. He has played a key role in supporting the education initiatives for both our internal stakeholders and our external partners alike. His approach is both inclusive and informative. He consistently rates highly in all surveys and evaluations post events. I genuinely recommend sitting in on one of his sessions.
