Revive Fitness Classes is husband and wife team, Amanda & Simon Pickstock, and Katy Harris, who are assisted by a number of instructors.
Amanda
I became a Group Fitness Instructor in 2017 and qualified as and Level 2 Gym Instructor and Exercise to Music. I went on to do a Personal Training Qualification in 2019 and L3 Active Older Adults in 2020. I am certified in Chair Fitness, Clubbercise®, Step Aerobics, Spinning®, Jumple®, Kettlebells, Circuit Training, Pure Stretch, Boxercise®, MenoFIT™ Coaching and ReBounding.
I love teaching older adults and my visits to a local assisted living home, where I help the residents with improving their mobility is the highlight of my week. I want other women to feel like I do about exercise and eating healthy. If you enjoy exercise you are more likely to stick with it. I turned my life around in my 40’s and always aim to inspire others to get involved and do the same. Its never too late.
Simon
As a former technology journalist, I specialised in breaking complex subjects down into easy-to-understand steps, and I bring that approach to my fitness training & nutrition advice.
As a Personal Trainer, I help our clients achieve specific goals, such as building muscular strength, recovering from illness or injury, weight management and improving general fitness. I have a L2 qualification in understanding nutrition and health, and I have helped many of our clients achieve their goals, not just for weight loss, but long-term health, too. We run frequent nutrition courses, which enable our clients to make lasting changes for positive results.

Katy
I joined a Revive Fitness Class back in January 2019.
I was extremely nervous to walk through the door but I am so pleased I did as this is where my love for fitness began, and I quickly realised I’d love to become an instructor.
With the support and encouragement from Amanda & Simon,
I qualified as a Level 2 Fitness instructor, and have gone on to gain the following qualifications – Exercise to music, Boxercise, ReBounding, Kettlebells, BOOSTfit & Clubbercise.
I pride myself on making fitness fun and inclusive for all.
Thanks to Revive Fitness Classes, I am happier and healthier, I am extremely proud to be part of team Revive.

Selina
Dance Fitness has always been a passion for me, especially in a class setting with other like minded people. After attending Clubbercise classes for a year, I decided I wanted to help others achieve their fitness goals as well as having fun at the same time, and became an Instructor. I have lots of energy, enthusiasm and will always welcome participants with warmth and a great big smile. As a drama teacher for nearly 20 years, I understand how important it is to fully explain and break down the moves – I even practices with my two young boys at home!
Karin
Revive is the reason I have kept up with anything fitness related, for a long time. I used to run regularly, but since the birth of my son, it fell by the wayside. Finding Revive re-ignited my passion and love for fitness, so much so I qualified to teach myself!
I have now been teaching since 2022. I am qualified to teach exercise to music and also have qualifications in Jumple (fitness class in bouncy boots), and Clubbercise. I currently teach Rebounce. I enjoy making the classes varied, and try different genres of music to inject passion, and energy, into each class. You’ll know me as “Barks”, a passionate powerhouse, looking forward to inspiring others to move their body, and enjoying their own ‘me time’ each week!
Rae
I’ve always had a love of fitness classes. It’s always been my happy place, where I go to have some me time while being a busy Mum! I know how much impact being active has on my overall wellbeing so, sharing my energy and passion in my classes makes me feel so lucky to do what I do.
I took the leap to become exercise to music trained fairly recently after thinking it was a past dream. You’ll find me raving and singing in neon at Clubbercise
Amy
I fell in love with Clubbercise within 5 minutes of attending my first class last year, so much so that within the year I’d trained up as an instructor!
Joining team Revive opened my eyes to the importance of holistic wellbeing and to a world where exercise could be fun and started from a young age. As a result I have incorporated it in to my day job, running children’s out of school clubs. You’ll find me team teaching and covering classes for the amazing Revive instructors when they’re on their well earned holidays!
