Rachel Glidewell

I have been a Fitness Instructor at The Chichester College Gym for over 15 years and have been personal training for over 20! I have undertaken numerous qualifications throughout my career, which has enabled me to stay up-to-date with changes in advice, guidance and training methods. I specialise in pre and post-natal workouts, nutrition advice, weight loss, women's health and my main focus these days is Pilates.

Outside of work I love spending time with my family, going on walks, paddle boarding and eating!
