Imi Payne

Qualifications:
  • Level 3 Personal Trainer
  • Level 3 Exercise Referral

My name is Imi and I’m a fully qualified personal trainer with 4+ years’ experience. I became a coach with the main purpose of being the guidance & support for others that I wish I’d had when I first started my fitness journey. I started the gym wanting to rebuild my strength after being seriously ill & found it quite a scary and intimidating place especially as a woman – so my aim as a coach has always been to empower & uplift others to feel amazing whilst training.

My own training has evolved over the years, from competitive body building to now a more hybrid performance focussed approach, competing in Hyrox and other functional fitness competitions that allow me more balance & enjoyment in life.

I’m a big believer that the only way to get results that LAST is to make it enjoyable as well as effective, and I apply this mindset to every session with our members to ensure they get the best training and results possible.

Becoming a coach is the best decision I ever made. I absolutely love helping & empowering people to be the fittest, strongest versions of themselves, as well as the fantastic community we have here at VB Fitness and can’t wait to help you progress on your own personal journey.
