Fit By Physio was developed by physiotherapist Louise Hateley. Louise found that she was constantly treating people who developed injuries while trying to get fit. These people were consistently making the same mistakes of overtraining, incorrect build up of exercise, poor stretching, weak core muscles and inappropriate muscle training.

So she decided to begin exercise groups to help people: 1. Get active and into shape 2. Build fitness safely without developing injuries 3. Work hard but in a non-intimidating environment 4. Set fitness goals and develop a plan to achieve them 5. Socialise with others who have the same goals
