MEMBER Survey - We have just started receiving your feedback about the gym and services provided and thank you for your comments.
Have you completed our Membership Questionnaire?
We value your input and to show that, we are offering everyone who completes the survey the chance to win a £250 top-up for their levy. Simply fill out the form which can be found in the Member’s Area on the website under ‘Health’ and you will automatically be entered into a prize draw. The winner will be drawn on Wednesday 7th November.
One thing that has appeared from the results we have received so far is that not everyone is aware that as part of your gym membership, our trainers are available to induct you into the gym, including a health & fitness check. From this we will be able to create a new and challenging workout to help you achieve your goals and keep you motivated. Our help does not stop here, we recommend that you come back to us every 2 months to reassess to ensure that you are making progress with your training regime. This is available to all members, so please do not hesitate to contact us on 01753 717104 or speak to the team in the gym.
We will be contacting everyone who has said that they would like an induction or reprogram in the survey in the coming week.
A Bit About Our Trainers and Members:
Ashley Dunnicliffe-Murray - Dip. PT, MLBP, SMT - Master Personal Trainer
“I have been in the fitness industry since 1998, including 9 years which I enjoyed working with the army as a physical training instructor. After leaving the military, I completed my Diploma in personal training and sports massage therapy. Recently I have completed my Register of Exercise Professionals level 4 course in Management of Exercise for lower back pain, along with core conditioning, movement based flexibility and resisted movement training. So after 2 long hard years of studying I have recently passed my final exam and have joined a very small percentage of level 4 Master Personal Trainers.”
If you would like to book an induction, reprogram or personal training consultation with Ashley, he is available in the gym Wednesday & Saturday mornings/afternoons and Thursday afternoon/evenings. Please call 01753 717104 to book.
Dhanik has been a member at Stoke Park since June 2011 and has trained with Joseph Ogbonnaya since July 2012.
“Joe took my training to another level. I had already been hitting the gym for an hour a day for 7 days a week before I met Joe and I had lost a bit of weight but nothing major. For the amount of effort I was putting in, I was not getting the results I deserved.
This is the problem with the fitness industry, there is so much contradiction out there; Joe cuts through all of it and goes back to the basics of what works and gets results fast. His knowledge and experience equips him to give the best advice available. Additionally, his loyal personality ensures that results are achieved as soon as possible in the safest way possible.
Its not only his fitness knowledge that has allowed me to achieve my goals but the inspiration within me that he draws, when you train with him, yes he hits you hard, but you want to reach his targets and surpass them. His encouragement and continuous support, no matter how large or small the goal, individualises him as a trainer.
All those phone calls outside of training hours have really helped too, just to know that there is an expert out there who has got your back all the time is very supportive and comforting.
I am infinitely grateful to Joe and here are my photos to prove I haven't been wasting my time.”

We at Stoke Park feel that Kinetica is of the very best quality whey proteins on the market today and we are pleased to recommend and stock this brand for members to purchase in 2.2kg tubs for home use.
