A Bit About Me

I am a passionate and energetic Fitness Professional with extensive experience instructing in group settings. I love motivating participants in my classes and inspiring them to transform their lives through the power of exercise. I am skilled in pre-choreographed and freestyle group classes that include strength, boxing, HIIT and Reformer Pilates training fundamentals.

I am also a driven personal trainer with a proven record of helping clients of all ages and abilities get in shape and achieve their fitness goals. I create focus in the minds of my clients to help them adopt lifestyle choices necessary for a long and healthy life.

While working in full time corporate employment, I am currently focussed on teaching Reformer Pilates, HIIT and BodyBalance.

My motivation is creating memorable fitness experiences to help people enjoy what they are doing and keep them coming back for more!

James is a wonderful instructor. Knowledgeable, motivating, fun, professional and everyone works harder with him in the room. Any club or member are privileged to have him as their instructor. He will stand out from the crowd for all the best reasons and his member numbers will soon show that. The preparation and care that goes into his classes is obvious, along with the banter and connection with each member. Go James!! 😁

I have worked in the Fitness Industry with James Steele for over 10 years. During that time James has always showed great professionalism. James has not only been a motivational Instructor he has also held many fitness team management roles and has a natural talent to train and develop both participants and instructors. As an instructor James is able to teach across many different class structures and has the motivation and personality to fill classes.

James is of the rare breed of instructors who does it out of pure love and passion. He brings out the sunshine even at the bleakest of winter mornings. His fun-loving spirit radiates and encourages all those around him, making James the gym buddy who everyone wants to befriend. James’s passion and no-BS attitude not only inspires people to go the extra mile in their workouts, but also changes their view on what a healthy lifestyle is - exercise is not a choir but a fun part of life. I look forward to many more training sessions with James in the future.
