I trained with Kayvan at Regents Place and truly enjoyed every session. He’s knowledgeable, motivating, and really knows how to tailor workouts to individual goals. One of the things I appreciated most was how much emphasis he placed on building proper technique, which not only helped me train safely but also made me noticeably stronger over time. I always felt supported and challenged in the best way, and his positive energy made training something I genuinely looked forward to. Highly recommend working with him if you’re serious about progress and want a trainer who really cares.

Kayvan is the best personal trainer l've worked with.
He is an expert, spending a lot of time with professional athletes, but if you're not at that level, don't let that put you off.
He has been able to tailor my training through a complex chronic illness and enabled me to keep pushing through it.
I'm in a much better place thanks to his help. I'm confident that whatever you're looking for Kayvan has the knowledge and experience to get you there!

Kayvan has changed my physique and educated my mind. I have been training with him for quite some time now – I was fortunate to find him, following my second hip replacement.
Beginning from when I was so weak that I couldn’t even stand on the rung of a ladder - and didn’t know how to help myself - I am now knowledgeable and purposeful in my strength/conditioning, proper weight lifting and cardio exercises. My stamina and energy surpass my expectations and I will continue to trust his bespoke training plan, into the future.
I can see no reason to give up. Kayvan has allowed me to feel strong and to have confidence that I will continue to see improvement. I am determined to pursue the freedom and success, I am already enjoying.
I recommend Kayvan to anyone wishing to be motivated and guided towards personal fitness goals. Kayvan is immensely qualified and experienced to move you forward – and along the way, you surprise yourself!

I have trained with Kayvan during a significant part of 2015. Kayvan is a very competent and qualified trainer that focuses on all aspects of physical well being. This includes working on posture and flexibility as well as strength, stamina and toning. He is also very kind and pleasant to work with and I would highly recommend his services to anyone seriously motivated to achieve meaningful fitness goals.

I have been training with Kayvan since 2012, and he has completely changed my physique and my mindset on how I look after my body. I decreased my body fat percentage and have improved my strength, and when I am struggling with my work/life balance he always keeps me focused and on-track. Kayvan has helped me through a back and shoulder injury, ensuring my training is suitable and helps support my rehabilitation.
As we train at my house, he is flexible with our training schedules, and looks for innovative ways to try new techniques. Mainly we do resistance and circuit style training, but also bring in boxing and weights to mix things up.
Along with my personalized training plan, Kayvan has recommended diet plans that support the exercise, and we undertook a DNA test together to be assured that the work we were doing together was 100% right for me. It is these extra support services which set Kayvan apart as his knowledge and understanding is far beyond your average gym PT.
I would 100% recommend an assessment with Kayvan to see what he can do to you to help you achieve goals, and maintain them in the long run.
