"Armin has a unique hands-on approach, which develops incredibly targeted training. Don't expect fancy equipment, mirrors and music; this is about utilising his detailed knowledge of the body's mechanics to deliver specific rapid results."

"I have been receiving physical rehabilitation services from Armin, following major ankle reconstruction. The impact of this therapy has far exceeded that of anything achieved through standard physiotherapy services. Working with Armin has ensured that I have rapidly regained use of my foot and leg, and has resolved debilitating lower back problems that had arisen from related gait issues. Armin's approach considers the way the body works as a whole. He is very knowledgeable and personable, and has extensive experience in post-surgical rehabilitation. I highly recommend his services."

Reading an article regarding Armin's rehabilitation work in a Herald supplement about new New Zealander's lifestyle here in godzone, and was especially impressed and interested to discover his experience with Olympic Ice figure skaters back in his homeland of Germany. At the time my son Mitch (then 16) was an International Roller skater to Oceania level for Youth Mens' Freeskating and had just competed in the 2012 World Championship for Junior Men's Solo Dance. Mitch was putting in a good effort with his 3x weekly training sessions on the rink. This 'rink' fitness was however not enough as injury was starting to creep in in the form of muscle strains, serious enough to take him off skates and to the physio. To skate to this level and be 'injury free' attention needed to be paid to strength work. With Armin's understanding of the unique demands figure skaters put on the bodies, especially in those encountered in jumping and spinning, he was able to work with Mitch and target those essential strength areas. Always a strong jumper, the strength gained has enabled Mitch to carry out his skating coach's instruction and perform technically better , more reliable and harder double jumps on skate and making it now reasonable for him to begin looking at triples (still off skate). Spinning has I think seen the most improvement with core exercises seeming to keep the injuries at bay, these were typically a danger area before. Skate coach instructions were again more easily carried out and I would often hear Armin repeating the same positional type guide lines about head and back positions that I would hear the skate coach say - being on the same page has been of great benefit. Due to the demands of trying (and succeeding) to remain on the dance team for the World Championship Free Skating has taken something of a back seat, until the last six months that is, when again Mitch has followed his passion of this more strenuous style of skating. A successful 2014 Nationals saw Mitch perform his best short and long programmes on the marking schedule to date and putting his name back on a National Free Skating title. As a result of this Mitch will now nominate for a place on the 2015 Oceania Team with the event being held on Gold Coast in April. The precessional effect of the focussed strength work outs didn't go a miss to keep on the Junior dance team either and will see Mitch compete in his 3rd World Championship, with the 2014 event being held in Reus, Spain. At his first worlds in Auckland Mitch achieved a 7th placing, and his second worlds in Taiwan a 6th placing. Naturally Mitch is hoping for a smaller number this year! Armin has given Mitch a full tool box of exercises that he can work on with the necessity for a lot of expensive equipment, all that is needed is motivation and commitment. It is likely that Mitch will need to get an Armin 'top up' to ensure he is on the straight and narrow for 2015 competition year as he looks to re-intensify his Free Skating efforts. Sally S., Howick

Armin is a very professional, patient and knowledgeable trainer. Armin is different in many good ways: his approach is targeted and tailored to your needs. He looks at his customers holistically: body, mind and spirit. He is a pleasure to work with and it's the first time in 46 years that I am starting to find pleasure in working out. Armin introduced me to the very succesful fast diet. His experience with back surgery patients is very relevant to me. He is not just a very good personal trainer, he is just a great guy! Highly recommended. You should try his 30 minute free assessment and see for yourself. I am sure you will like him.

I have known Armin in a variety of capacities during his work at the gym of Jellie Park at Christchurch. He has been my instructor for some time. In addition, he helped me with my neck injury. The injury had occurred after one move at the gym which caused some limitation and pain to my neck movement, and sometime across my left shoulder. Armin arranged an exercise program which helped me to regain my normal movement in my neck and I was relieved from the pain. Since, my impression about him, he is kind of person he knows exactly what's he doing. Faris Thanks Armin for your help and tips I had from you.
