"Mike Bell is an innovative NLP coach and trainer, who began his career in 2000 as an NLP coach and therapist.
I first met Mike while he was working as a PADI Scuba Diving Instructor and Personal Trainer in 2000, where his excellent results were demonstrated by the enthusiasm and commitment of his students.
Today he specialises in the specific application of NLP to sports coaching and presenting, and he has provided some excellent sports coaching to the son of a military client of mine, that resulted in the 16 year old winning 3 junior open golf championships in 10 days!
So, Mike is also a highly qualified personal trainer, and I am happy to recommend him to clients who wish to discover their potential and actualise their dreams".

"Sam is a 15 year old talented all round sportsman whose main passion revolves around the game of golf. He has had significant golf coaching regarding physical techniques and a short introduction to sports psychology. However there was something still missing in his golf game – mental strength and focus. Mike Bell has provided Sam with this mental strength and focus with astounding and immediate results.
Through the use of two simple but very effective techniques Mike has made a real difference to Sam’s ability to perform when it counts. Firstly visualization and anchoring techniques and secondly the ability to clear the mind and focus on the task at hand have helped Sam immensely. Mike did not offer training in physical techniques but he helped Sam train his mind and through this created superb confidence in his ability to succeed.
Sam completed his session with Mike on a Sunday morning recently. His enthusiasm was infectious and he created immediate rapport with Sam. That afternoon in practice, Sam shot a new course record at his home club. Two days later he won the Junior Open at the Salisbury and South Wilts Golf Club – a course he had never seen before. Later that week he was runner up in another golf tournament at Puttenham near Guildford and the week ended on a high when he defended a title he had won 12 months previously at his home club in Aldershot. But this time his score improved by 7 shots from the previous year and he beat the reigning Hampshire Under 18 champion head to head.
Sam is now on a 1 handicap and over the next three years he aims to become a dominant junior player in England at the highest level and then move to a senior career as a touring professional golfer. There is no doubt that Mike has helped point Sam in the right direction with regard to the mental aspects of his game and I am very happy to strongly endorse Mike to anyone looking to improve their performance through increased mental strength and focus".

Testimonials - Corrective Exercise
"I have been training with Mike for well over a year now and the results have been impressive. I have lost weight but, more importantly, become much fitter, leaner, stronger and less injury prone - prior to the personal training I had a history of minor injuries from playing football.
Mike takes a holistic approach, building core strength and overall fitness, rather than just concentrating on "problem areas". In the longer term, this gives a much more balanced and sustainable outcome. He uses a variety of training methods, many (e.g. TRX) using balance techniques that quickly improve core strength. He makes it fun and variable too - yes he uses weights but you may find yourself standing on one leg on a Bosu rather than simply "pumping iron"!
I have used several trainers and Mike is definitely the best. He will work you hard but as part of a structured and well thought out strategy (unlike many trainers) - his gentle manner masks a steely determination to get results. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending him, indeed several friends now use him and have seen similarly great results".

"I commenced training with Mike in August 09, following the first part of the year adhering to a strict diet and attendance two or three times a week at the gym. My aim, initially, was to lose weight for a special occasion with a goal of 52 pounds by the end of December 09. However, my long term aim has always been to regain a good level of fitness and have a sustainable healthy eating plan.
It became abundantly clear early on in the year that this was going to be a long haul and I needed additional help and guidance to keep me on track. Mike is both knowledgeable and inspirational with a friendly but professional approach at all times to the sessions. He always takes time out to answer questions, understand my individual needs, what motivates and how to make the sessions both enjoyable but ultimately productive to achieve my long term aims. He has worked closely with me to allow me to understand what exercises best suit and are the most effective and has encouraged me to vary the established regime I had in place.
I am amazed at the results and I am still coming to terms with a weight loss of 62 pounds to date (and losing!). My body fat has reduced drastically and my body shape has completely changed; now 3 dress sizes smaller. I have muscles for the first time with definition and am still enjoying the challenges he sets on a weekly basis. I feel fantastic and full of energy and would recommend Mike for a great job done"!

"As part of my New Year’s resolution I have been training with Mike since early January. I have lost 14kgs in 3 months! The benefits of Mike’s knowledge and experience have had an amazing impact on my attitude to exercise and the results have far surpassed even my most optimistic expectations. My new found fitness levels also helped me enjoy my best skiing season in many years. Mike is a great motivator and who not only has kept me going but also made my gym routine fun".
