Inspiring women and transforming their mind, body and life is what I feel I was born to do! I combine the importance of mind and body coaching together. So ladies can experience longterm and life changing results!
There Is A Different Way!
I believe when women become healthy and empowered we lead healthier happier lives. So we can grow to achieve more than we ever thought was possible. This all starts with the journey of being kinder to ourselves, learning to love and believe in our own unique-selves.
About Katie Ford
I have personally been on my own self discovery journey, over overcoming trauma in my younger years, relationship stress, business stress and putting my body under a great deal of pressure competing in figure & fitness competitions. My body and mind couldn’t handle it anymore.
All this resulted in an inevitable breakdown leading to health issues that I had never experienced before, such as adrenal fatigue, skin problems and digestive problems. I ended up having a body and mind I know longer recognised. This was one of the most challenging, yet enlightening experiences, which has lead me to become the coach I am today. Learning first hand how many of my clients really felt and it re-defined the way I wanted to coach people.
I've had to redefine who I was, how I trained, how I ate, from a place of deep radical self love and then put that into practice, in my training, my eating and my my way of thinking, . It was these tools that allowed me to heal from the self-destructive patterns I was stuck in, to be able to feel more body empowered, embrace my body for what it naturally was and not for the strive of perfection. Don’t get me wrong I have those days I have to dig deep to feel empowered but I know this now comes from ultimately mindset tools, healthy/balanced discipline and more self love in my life. It is with, my 18 years of experience from working with 1000's of women just like you.
My own journey has ignited my passion to develop transformations where women can become the best versions of themselves, gain long term results and be comfortable in their own skin, this is my MISSION and WISH for YOU.

Katie has natural empathy but also incredible intuition"I have been training with Katie for the last 7 months. She has been invaluable not only in my desire to improve my fitness but also in working on my mindset, challenging my thinking where appropriate and making suggestions to look at things from a different angle. I have recently been involved in her Mindset Gym seminars which involve working with a group of her clients to improve Mindset. These are so powerful.

She is an amazing personal trainer and her mindset sessions really help you look at things differently and her positive outlook is infectious. Beautiful person inside and out. "Kay Heeley
Katie is professional, friendly and she believes in me!"6 years ago I seriously injured my spinal cord which meant I could no longer walk. Katie became my personal trainer 2 years ago. I have noticed a massive improvement with not only my physical strength but also my mental health. Katie has given me a lot of motivation over the time and lots of encouragement. My physio has noticed a substantial change in my upper body strength as I can now independently transfer myself from my bed to my chair and vice versa! Katie is very understanding and patient with me at all times. Not only does she train me physically, she also gives me nutritional plans to follow which make me feel healthy inside! Katie is professional, friendly and she believes in me! It doesn’t matter if you have a disability or not, get yourself to Fit 4 It and Katie Ford will transform your life!!! Thank you very much Katie!"Andrius Morkevicius

None judgmental and entirely encouraging"Katie brings sunshine and give a totally holistic approach to mind and body coaching. None judgmental and entirely encouraging, you enable the team to win strong levels of fitness and develop a connection through exercise to sound mental health (so important right now). Her attention to knowing each of our characters and how we all tick is very spiritual and brings benefits that go beyond just general wellbeing and weight-loss."Suzanne Bell
I am fitter and healthier the pounds have gone"Katie you invested in me and showed me how to invest in myself physically and emotionally to have a belief and a confidence to embrace new challenges and to conquer insecurities and doubt to do things I didn’t think possible at my age and my size. I am fitter and healthier the pounds have gone and you will never know the difference you have made to me to feel good about myself inside and outside. So when folks say to me now you want to be careful doing that sort of exercise especially at your age… I think bet you wish you could do the same !! Keep it coming Katie! "Anne Stafford

Always delivered with a giggle and a smile. I always feel safe with my conditions and injuries which is a real skill to have."Sharon Nolan
There is so much more to what you offer then just personal training"Katie creates an environment of safety both in a 1:1 and group setting, encouraging me to achieve goals but also offering up a much needed dose of realism! There is so much more to what you offer then just personal training and fitness, you’ve taught me to start with my mindset, and to use the power of the group to push myself ✨"Nat Spray
You keep me accountable each week and make sure I keep moving or slow down if I need to"Katie is my mind, body and health mentor - you keep me accountable each week and make sure I keep moving or slow down if I need to - way more than a PT.... mindset, body, nutrition and wellness coach and all round body guru ... and you have been a constant in my life for a very long time now!!!!

She has helped us to reflect on our lives during this extraordinary time"I have been attending Katie’s group mindset online classes over zoom during lockdown and have found them so helpful. Firstly she has created an atmosphere where everyone feels comfortable and safe to share as much or as little as they want. Katie is always so professional, engaging and very knowledgeable about the topic discussed each week She has helped us to reflect on our lives during this extraordinary time, be more grateful for the little things and given us tools to be more positive in our mindsets These classes have been really good to be a part of, it’s nice to be able to relate to people on a deeper level as well as learn more about myself. "Luke Frith
Engaging and informative sessions"I have been doing group mind-set coaching with Katie through-out lock-down. It has been a really positive and uplifting experience, opening my mind to an array of techniques and learnings which have proved vital tools at this uncertain and stressful time. Engaging and informative sessions delivered in Katie’s passionate, friendly and approachable manor. They have been a real joy to take part in and l have learnt lots about myself and have learnt lots from other like minded people and their experiences. Surround yourself with positive supportive people and great things can happen. Thank you Katie 🙏❤️ "Haley Wall
The best trainer around"Where do I begin???? I have been training with Katie on and off (mainly on) for the past 15 years and can honestly say she is the most fantastic PT. I have recently returned after having a baby and felt that I would never again be fit or toned. Katie gave me such reassurance and motivation and made me feel great about myself after just one session back. She put no pressure on me and has set me realistic exercise and diet goals which have already made me see results in only 4 months. Prior to having a baby Katie was able to work with me to sculpt the body that I wanted whilst always setting a healthy body image - something which is so important for women these days where everything is either air brushed or gone under the knife. Not only do I class Katie as the best trainer around, she has also been a great friend to me these past 15 years and I would recommend her to everyone! Thank you Katie and here is to the next 15!
