Details of this month’s speaker…

After years of back problems to the point where Russell would struggle to get dressed in the mornings at age 28, weekly Pilates practise enabled him to get back to playing rugby, doing squats and deadlifts in the gym and even improved his mobility and performance. Russell speaks widely outlining the dangers of the “Sitting Disease” to businesses and organisations and combating the adverse effects of sitting for long periods. He provides quality instructors of functional fitness sessions to businesses and organisations with a view to improving employee health, wellbeing and happiness.

Russell recently left his 14-year professional services career to start Pilates Guy and help more people like him get past their barriers. Russell will be giving us valuable insights into how his successful start-up journey has evolved.

Entrepreneurs’ Network events are offered by Start and Grow Enterprise, a University of Gloucestershire project with funding from the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF). Start and Grow Enterprise supports the growth of Gloucestershire-based entrepreneurs and start-ups (trading up to 3 years) through free training, events, networks and resources.
