About
Hello,
I'm Haiden, I'm a Personal Trainer available at both New Barnet and Finchley Leisure Centres. I have been training myself for over 20 years and I have been a personal trainer since 2017. I have a previous background in dance and I have a very good understanding of the importance of posture, technique and flexibility within any kind of physical training.
I am passionate about working with clients of varying abilities and backgrounds to help them improve flexibility, mobility, endurance and strength. I am also aware of the importance of movement and fitness for overall personal and mental health. I have trained clients of all ages from those in their 80s to young children who have attended alongside their parents - it’s never too late or early to start. I have trained professional athletes and clients who want to build muscle, as well as clients with limited mobility or those who want to lose weight or improve overall health.
My approach is that our PT sessions should be fun but also dynamic (so clients don’t get into a rut), as well as challenging and instructive. And over time, progressive so that noticeable improvements in posture, technique, flexibility and growth happen. Please get in touch to discuss further or say hello when you see me in the clubs.

Haiden truly was essential for me reaching my goal, he knows what workouts you need to do, over my time with Haiden i was able to squat properly and deeper and the pain in my knees and lower back were alleviated. One of the best decisions I made picking him as my PT.

Haiden taught me to push beyond what I thought were my limits. The sessions were challenging, as they should be, but Haiden always made them fun, varied and enjoyable. Within just a few months of training with Haiden, I noticed a real change in my body shape, and I’m extremely pleased with the results.

Haiden Medina is an outstanding Personal Trainer and, more importantly, a genuinely lovely person. I had the pleasure of training with Haiden for over two years, and throughout that time I was consistently impressed by his professionalism, knowledge and attention to detail.
He pays particular attention to posture and technique, making sure exercises are performed correctly and safely rather than simply focusing on completing the workout. I really appreciated how he tailored each training session to the specific goal and expected results, adapting the programme whenever necessary.
Haiden is always punctual, positive, encouraging and easy to get along with. His friendly attitude makes every session enjoyable, while his professional approach keeps you motivated and focused on achieving your goals.
I would highly recommend Haiden to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, dedicated and reliable PT. He is an excellent trainer and a genuinely wonderful person to work with. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“I’ve been training with Haiden for almost 3 years now, and believe he is one of the most experienced and committed trainers around. He knows how to motivate me and makes each of my training sessions challenging but rewarding. I have been able to see continual improvement from my sessions, which he runs in a supportive environment. Importantly, he ensures that my technique is always correct to avoid any injuries and is extremely reliable & punctual – always set up & ready to start training ahead of time, with an exercise routine planned. I really enjoy my sessions with Haiden and would have no hesitation in recommending him as your personal trainer if you want to achieve your fitness and health goals.”

"Haiden is a fantastic personal trainer who helped me to achieve my fitness goals and more. He has helped me to trim down, build strength, improve posture and very importantly, to exercise correctly and safely. I’m a 39 year old female. We initially started PT sessions for my upcoming wedding with my goal to trim down and improve posture. Our sessions were so effective and enjoyable that we’ve continued for the last 2 years. During the Covid restrictions, we trained outdoors in a park rather than gym. Exercises were still tailored and varied despite having less equipment than in a gym. We are now training postpartum to help me to regain strength, re-engage my core and improve my posture. Haiden is mindful of my condition and is helping me to safely return to training after the baby. Haiden is a complete pro who varies but tailors the routines, encourages and pushes me and always with a smile and friendly persona. I look forward to my PT sessions with Haiden!”

“I attended Haiden's adult ballet classes at Virgin Active, Swiss Cottage for many years pre-Covid lockdown in March 2020. Considering his classes started at 08.00 on Saturday mornings, they were always full to capacity with wait-lists. He had such drive and we all loved all his choreos. Due to Covid lockdown, Virgin Active, Swiss Cottage closed, so I approached Haiden about doing 1-2-1 classes on Zoom and we got going straight away. I have to say that the 1-2-1 experience is amazing because we progress quickly. I feel my body is stronger and more toned. He has really personalised my lessons to everything I want to achieve and his lessons are my valuable 'me time', which I always look forward to.”

”Haiden is a professional and supportive trainer. He is an expert in not only compound exercises but also in functional movements and training; thanks to his background in dance. Haiden helped me develop a programme which got me into the best shape of my life, he was also there to support me every step of the way. I would highly recommend him.”

I have trained with Haiden for over 8 years. He has helped me completely transform my body and my fitness level. He is instinctively knowledgeable about posture and technique and able to correct both so that you get the most out of your training. He is always changing the sessions up too so that the body doesn't get into a rut and so the training stays fresh. I have seen him train countless other people and he is always able to adjust sessions to accommodate the clients regardless of age or ability. Highly recommend.

"Dear Haiden,
You were my personal fitness trainer weekly for almost 3 years. You did a terrific job especially bearing in mind my age ( currently 81) and the need to ensure my safety and push me to the limits of my abilities.
We worked on weights, arms and legs and trying to improve my mobility. You were always on time, which was used very efficiently.
I wish you all the best for the future."
