Joni Fitton

A motivated and enthusiastic health and exercise student with a strong interest in weight management and lifestyle behaviour change. Currently studying on a CIMSPA-endorsed degree programme and gaining practical experience within community health and wellbeing services. Holds CIMSPA-recognised Level 2 Gym Instructor and Level 3 Personal Trainer qualifications, with experience supporting children, adults, and older adults through physical activity, exercise delivery, and health promotion initiatives. Demonstrates strong communication, organisational, and interpersonal skills, with a client-centred and non-judgemental approach. Maintains a strong personal commitment to an active and healthy lifestyle, supporting credibility and enthusiasm when promoting sustainable behaviour change.

• In addition to my academic and professional experience, I actively maintain a healthy and physically active lifestyle, which supports my credibility and enthusiasm for promoting behaviour change in others. I regularly train for endurance and functional fitness events and have recently completed the Ribble Valley 10k, with upcoming goals including a HYROX event and a half marathon. This personal commitment has strengthened my understanding of goal setting, consistency, and overcoming barriers to physical activity, which are key challenges faced by many clients engaging with weight-management services. By applying these principles both personally and professionally, I am well placed to encourage and support individuals to adopt and sustain healthier lifestyles in a realistic and achievable way.
