Instructors

Matt Philpot is a health and fitness professional and owner/founder of ATP Health and Fitness Norwich Limited. His passion for staying fit and healthy started when serving in the Armed Forces, where it was vital he stayed 100 percent fit! Staying in shape played a big part of his life and army career making him recognise that maintaining a healthy lifestyle, establishing good eating habits, and participating in regular exercise were key for not only keeping in shape, more importantly, it helps you feel fantastic. His enjoyment for exercise was the catalyst to pursue a career as a fitness instructor and in 2009, after serving eight years, ATP Health and Fitness Norwich was born.

I have been teaching in and around Norwich for several years, I love fitness so feel extremely lucky to do it as a job. I feel that group exercise should be all inclusive so I always try to cater to all abilities. I teach aerobics, step, spin, LBT, body conditioning and Pilates. When I’m not teaching (or exercising!) I like to spend time with my husband Michael and our two daughters. 

My name is Sophie and I’ve worked in the fitness industry for almost 20 years. I’m a freelance group fitness instructor and personal trainer based in Sprowston, Norwich. 
I love teaching group fitness because I find group settings highly motivational and a lot of fun. I’ve been teaching fitness Pilates for around 10 years and I love this contemporary and modern approach to classical Pilates. It’s something everyone can do and benefit from. From core strength to posture and mobility, I’ve got you covered! 

Charlie is the newest member to the team and cannot wait to get teaching! After leaving school, she went to professional dance college where she trained in dance and musical theatre. Her passion for fitness and dance led her to train to become an instructor in Boogie Bounce and Broadway Boogie. She has recently qualified to become a Supa Fresh Instructor for us and has nearly completed her Level 2 Exercise To Music (or is a fully qualified L2 ETM instructor- if you post after i’ve finished the course).
