About
🎉⭐️YOUR PT's Personal Trainer of the Month for January 2023⭐️🎉

Hungarian born Susanna Karpati was raised into sport; with both her parents basketball players and her mother representing the Selected Hungarian National Basketball Team, it was only a matter time before her own athletic ability was spotted, and at 14 years of age, Susanna started a nine year career playing for Tungsram Basketball Champion Team. As a point guard and shooting guard, touring the basketball circuit encouraged
other athletic interests and a few years later Susanna finished fourth place in the Hungarian Aerobics Championship.

Susanna’s passion for athletics and fitness developed further as she decided to work as a physical trainer, initially specialising in dance choreography and the training of aerobics teams. After winning many international accolades in this area, it was in 2003 that Susanna decided to focus fully on practicing as a personal trainer. With a sensitive nature, good sense of humour, patience and over twenty years involvement in
sports and fitness, it is impossible to imagine her doing anything else.

Now living and working in London, Susanna dedicates her time to helping people reach their fitness goals, and keeps abreast of all new and innovative fitness techniques. With a proven competitive nature running through her Susanna will never give up, so you can rest assured that with her as your trainer, you are in good, experienced hands.

Susanna is truly fantastic. She is attentive, creative and enthusiastic. I enjoy training with her so much. It’s been a couple of months and I’m already feeling much stronger and more confident in the gym. She is good with all abilities - I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you Susanna!

Susanna is a fantastic trainer. She is creative, caring and attentive. Every session she focuses on exactly what I need - she goes above and beyond for her clients. I am so grateful to have found her. It has only been a few months and I’m already feeling so much stronger. I highly recommend her.

Susanna has saved me hundreds and hundreds of pounds in physiotherapy fees. Much more than a personal trainer, she is a professional body sculptor and strength expert with a superb understanding how the body works. As a former competing athlete herself, she knows exactly what her clients need to be in optimal health and fitness (including losing and/or maintaining weight). No two sessions with her are ever the same. Susanne's high energy and can-do attitude is so infectious that I actually look forward to my gym sessions, not something I ever dreamt would be possible. Whoever trains with her is a lucky person.

Susanna has helped me to get myself to the highest performance I can as I pursue my passion in cycling and cross country skiing. I compete at the World Masters level in both. In order to continue to perform at a high level I have hugely been helped by Susanna and her unparalleled understanding of how to recover from and to prevent injuries. Like so many others my body has old weaknesses that should have been addressed. Susanna keeps finding ways for me to work on these to minimise the impact and to perform competitively. I had old issues that no one had been able to sort out but she found ways very quickly. If one way is not working, she finds other ways.

Susanna has a unique eye enabling her to assess your boundaries and how to challenge them. Her sessions are carefully planned to ensure that novel exercises are introduced week to week to avoid repitition and complacency. I have no hesitation in recommending her. The experience will be rewarding

I reached out to Susanna during the pandemic and starting to train with her has been one of the best decisions that I have ever made. I have been struggling with my weight for a long time but I never managed to get rid of the extra kilos and on top of that I was getting injured in a different way with every new attempt that I made. The very same day we met she was able to identify my strengths and weaknesses just by looking at my posture and asking me to do a few exercises and a couple of questions...and that definitely impressed me. I used to suffer from persistent back pain but not anymore - she has helped me strengthen my core, she has taught me how to stretch to get rid of the pain... I am losing weight in a consistent and healthy way, I am picking up good healthy habits and also learning what to eat to reach my goals, I am learning to love my body not only for how it looks but for what it allows me to do, how much stronger I feel ever since I started this journey with Susanna. She guides you, motivates you, with her vast knowledge she is able to tailor the training to your goals and needs, she is always reachable and she is with you every step of the way. I have become a healthier, happier, improved version of myself and a great part of this success is thanks to Susanna so I would encourage everyone to book a session with her, I'm sure you will be as impressed as I was that first day and as delighted as I am today.

Despite being healthy and active, I had been struggling with neurophatic pain for a while. This interfered not only with my day to day but also with my sleep.
Knowing about Susanna's skills dealing with injuries, my own personal trainer recommended me to see her. Susanna saw me, assessed my pain, taught me and recommended me a couple of exercises which I do everyday, training or not - consistency is the key, and I have been pain free since I have started those.
I cannot thank her enough to help me to bring my quality of life back up!

Working with Susanna has been life changing. She has helped strengthen my weak core and activated my glutes so that I engage the correct muscles when training and during everyday activities. I walk taller, have lost weight, gained muscle and my old hip aches have gone. It’s been the best investment and an absolute pleasure to train with her. Highly recommend.

I cannot recommend Susanna highly enough. She has a superb knowledge of the skeleton and the muscular structure and makes sure that one works all the parts of the body. I have a problematic left shoulder and it is now much more flexible and the muscles are stronger. Susanna works one hard in the sessions, but knows when to push harder and when to relax a bit. I am 72 years old, but believe that Susanna would be a perfect trainer for women (and men!) of any age. What I really enjoy with Susanna is that we never get into a tedious (and lazy) routine. She always comes up with new approaches and challenges in addition to the vital basics, so although it is hard work, it is also fun and much more likely to keep people who don't really enjoy the gym keeping at it. One feels great afterwards and it motivates on to do exercise and stretching at home.

Having had long term injuries due to a car crash, Susanna has helped me back on my feet. According to the doctors this wasn’t possible, Susanna proved them wrong, she gave me back 100% of my quality of life. I’m forever grateful.

Susanna is a spectacular personal trainer, and I highly recommend working with her. I started working with her 6 weeks after giving birth; within 5 sessions I was in great shape; within 10 sessions I was back to my pre-baby weight. She was careful with, and knowledgeable about, my post-partum body. She structured routines that I could do independently in the gym. She taught me how to exercise effectively – a skill that has changed my life. Her fitness expertise and experience is unrivalled. Above all, she is friendly, energetic and great fun. Contact Susanna today and hit your workout goal!

I have been working with Susanna for a number of years and she has been consistently 100% focussed on my needs. I used to get a lot of back problems which have now disappeared because Susanna’s focus on building my core. She provides a lot of variety to my twice a week 630 am workouts which is tuned to my body’s idiosyncrasies.

It is rare to find someone with Susanna’s wide ranging experience and capabilities who is active as a team PT. Contact her today !

It all started 6 years ago.......

I started to work as a trainee restaurant supervisor at Swiss Cottage Leisure Centre. I heard from customers and colleagues about a Hungarian lady who works in the building as a personal trainer and she is super pretty, young looking, full of energy, always smiles and has a huge knowledge in fitness industry. When I met Susanna I was shocked by her age as she looks at least
10-15 years younger and I remember the first thing I said was "I want to look as good as you when I will be over 40." She became my role model. I started to train with her 3 times a week. With her knowledge, motivation and inspiration I went through major life changes. I gave up bad habits for example unhealthy eating, being inactive and I stopped smoking after 10 years. I decided to end my toxic relationship and start a new and happy life. I trained so hard and I could never believe that I can come this far. She is not only a fantastic trainer and a life coach but also a very good friend who is always here to support, push, motivate, help me to grow and get better in every way and all areas of my life. 3 years later I achieved a body shape and fitness level that I could never imagine before. Also I have been in a healthy relationship for over 2 years and recently got engaged. I work as a Health & Fitness Manager and I am in charge of fitness department. I run spinning and dance aerobics classes and currently looking to help others to reach their goals and dreams the way I did.

Thank you so much Susanna Karpati for bringing out the best in me. You`ve influenced my life for the better.

Zsuzsanna has been my personal trainer for several years during which my fitness has improved dramatically and my posture even more so. Zsuzsanna has a very extensive knowledge of both the body’s muscles and skeleton and knows how things work together ( or not as the case may be at times!) and this knowledge enables her to develop exercises that work for each specific individual. I am 77 and so for me the priority is to stay mobile and be fit. I had a hip injury which caused me to limp and made walking painful and exhausting. Zsuzsanna gave me specific stretching and strength exercises which got rid of this problem. I walk normally now. I would recommend Zsuzsanna very highly to anyone young or old she will listen to what you want to achieve and motivate and encourage you to get there. She is creative and inventive in all her work and her sessions are enjoyable as well as effective.

Susanna is simply brilliant; full of knowledge, integrity and honesty. She's someone you can trust to bring you the results you want to achieve - her passion for what she does and the support she gives her clients is like no other. I have trained with various PTs for the last 10 years but thanks to Susanna's tailored training, I really feel she has pushed my fitness to the next level. I have never felt better!

Susanna has been formidable in all aspects. She has always been consistently motivating, always ready to answer questions and bring a new innovative session each time. Her knowledge is in-depth and thorough and she always seeks to improve every aspect in an individual, taking them as an individual in their own substance rather than a coupled result.
Definitely amazing trainer.
