Personal trainer - Simone (mind over matter boxing)

Recommended Posts

If anyone is looking for a brilliant personal trainer (or group classes for that matter) then I can highly recommend Simone of Mind over matter boxing.

I'd done a couple of gym classes before but never felt I was doing the right thing for me. I found Simone through various recommendations on here and am so glad I did.


Her one to one training sessions are amazing - she pushes you to your limits so you're working at your full potential but is also very understanding and works at a pace you feel comfortable with. She is also great on a personal level, really friendly and so easy to get along with.


Also, having never done any boxing or similar before, I can honestly say it is brilliant fun. You really feel the benefits straight away and I've honestly never enjoyed exercise so much! I'm actually looking forward to our next session (a rarity for me)!

I just wanted to add to the recommendation for Mind over Matter Boxing. I have never enjoyed exercise so much, my sister and I had a personal training session and came away raving about Simone's class.


Our first session was a personal training session, just the two of us which allowed us to learn 1-on-1 some of the punches and combinations in the ring alongside fitness work. It was pretty punishing but it is so much fun that you feel pumped to push past any tiredness. Simone is really warm and affirming but will also not let you slack and keeps you working right to the last minute. We can't wait to keep learning and get fitter and really look forward to our sessions.


As an unexpected bonus, after our first session Simone weighed us in, worked out our % muscle, body fact and visceral fat so as we will be able to see our progress over time. HOWEVER, (and I think this is so important)the focus of the training is not on weight loss etc, but on fitness and technique which is such a relief and so refreshing. I come away from boxing feeling strong, positive and full of endorphins - a physical work out with very real mental health benefits which was what inspired me particularly about what Simone does.


Check out her website www.mindovermatterboxing.co.uk and book a class, it it so worth it.

    • Good luck with this - there have been several requests over the years by students needing to do infant observations.  I was lucky when I did mine  - way back in 1994 at a local nursery. Have you tried contacting the NCT to see if there are any local groups who would be willing to participate? As a mother of 2 - found the observation very informative - mine was a 2 year old child as my course stated a child under 3. Got my highest grade for this project so was very happy.
    • Happy birthday! I've just read a bunch of your reviews and really enjoyed it. You write Interestingly without being too ornate, and you manage to give a really good insight into the "vibe" of a place as well as the food. Totally agree with your review of Rocca - it's simple, great food in a friendly atmosphere at a completely reasonable price, esp considering the location.
    • Hello,  I am a 52-year old mother and an integrative counsellor who lives and works in West Dulwich, SE21. In mid January I am starting a new training in Parent Infant Psychotherapy (helping parents to bond with their babies), and a key component of the course is a 24-month infant observation.  I’m looking for someone who will be giving birth ideally in January or February and who would allow me to observe their baby for one hour a week until the baby’s second birthday. The baby can be awake or asleep, playing, feeding, eating or interacting with carer/s and family members - whatever they normally do at that time.  The purpose of the observation is to enable me to gain a thorough knowledge of very early infant development and to develop the capacity to maintain an observationally minded and non-judgemental attitude in my work as an infant-parent psychotherapist.  I will provide enhanced DBS clearance and I’m happy to answer any questions.  Please forward this email to anyone who might be interested, email me at [email protected] or call me on 07949716043. I would be extremely grateful for any leads. Many thanks,  Millie  Millie Burton, MBACP Integrative Counsellor [email protected] millieburton.com
    • I keep my promises...had the Sweet & Sour Chicken.  It was great - the best sweet and sour dish I've ever had. The chicken itself was good and the sauce seemed home made with real vegetables and pineapple - it is NOT the red sugar sauce goo you get elsewhere.  The Korean fried chicken was very good but the sweet chili sauce was much more chili than sweet - just far too spicy for me. There is a honey something sauce that I will get next time. Egg fried veggie rice was good as a side.  We also ordered the chicken katsu curry which was polished off so quickly I didn't get to taste it. It looked very good tho. SD is not like Magic Wok used to be - cheap and filling but junk food. (Don't get me wrong - I went often to Magic Wok). SD's food is much higher quality, real ingredients, chunky portions, freshly prepared. I'll be back, for sure.
