Personal Trainer Kensington

I'm James Thompson, a personal trainer and boxing coach with more than 15 years of professional coaching experience.

​

I work with clients across Kensington and South Kensington, helping people become stronger, fitter and more confident through personalised training.

​

My approach combines strength and weight training, boxing, conditioning and structured programming around your individual goals.

​

Whether you're looking to build muscle, improve your body composition, get fitter, learn to box or simply feel stronger and more capable, your training is designed around you.

​

Personal Training That Fits Your Life

​

Training should complement your life, not become another demand on it.

I work with clients with different schedules, training backgrounds and goals, from people returning to exercise to experienced gym-goers who want more structure and accountability.

​

Sessions can include:

​

• Strength and weight training

• Boxing and pad work

• Conditioning

• Muscle building

• Fat-loss and body-composition training

• General fitness

• Mobility and movement

• Individualised programming

• ​

Every programme starts with understanding where you are now and where you want to get to.

​

Boxing Personal Training in Kensington

​

Boxing is an excellent way to develop fitness, coordination, conditioning and confidence while keeping training varied and engaging.

Whether you've never boxed before or already have experience, sessions can be adapted to your level.

Pad work, footwork, technique, conditioning and combinations can all form part of your training.

​

Strength & Weight Training in Kensington

​

Strength training is at the heart of many of my programmes.

The focus isn't simply on lifting weights. It's about learning to train effectively, progressing over time and building strength that supports your wider health and fitness.

Training can be adapted around your experience, goals and schedule, whether you're starting from scratch or looking to take your current training to another level.

​

Training in Kensington & South Kensington

​

Kensington Training Club is based in South Kensington, with training available across Kensington and the surrounding area. Depending on your requirements, sessions can take place in a private training environment, at home, outdoors or at another suitable location.

​

Who I Work With

​

I work with people who want personalised coaching rather than a generic workout.

That includes busy professionals, people returning to training, experienced gym-goers, and clients who want to build strength, improve fitness or change their body composition.

The programme changes according to the person.
