After my first consultation with Craig I knew my journey was going to be a success. I’m a 15-year-old who went to Fusion Fat Loss and Nutrition to change my mindset, physic and fitness. In the past 6 months I can not believe my transformation both mentally and physically. Craig’s guidance is with me all day, everyday. He is constantly on call and supporting me in a way I could not have imagined. Having a goal of competing competitively in motorsport, I knew that fitness and nutrition was going to be a key factor in my success. Our whole family has become a Fusion family. Our mindset towards food, nutrition and all over health and well being has been guided as a part of everyday life.

Craig Kelly was my Manager at a few different gyms and has an amazing amount of information and a very inspiring man. He always made sure we were reaching our potential. I still to this day haven't worked for anyone who puts as much effort into his staff as Craig did. Now a decade later he is my trainer and mentor and the one that I recommend to all my loved ones if they are having any nutritional and or fitness issues. He is a world of knowledge and continues to study to pass on more knowledge. He isn't just a trainer he is a friend and is always there to catch you if you fall. Thank you Craig.

Craig was employed at Health Mates approximately 10-12 years ago, however I have remained in contact with Craig since his departure and have had the privilege to see him develop and progress in this time. Craig is a passionate person, always 100% giving to the projects he is working on. He has a natural ability to engage with people of all ages and consistently offers genuine high quality service and advise. I feel Craig would be committed and put full effort into anything he sets his mind to.
