About Us

INNERGYM first started business in 2001. Since then the owner, Tonya Jones has certified as a Personal Trainer with the American Council on Exercise (ACE) in Hawaii, USA and gone on to study with and qualify as a CHEK Exercise Coach (UK). She is also a registered Life Coach with the Rivas Palmer Coaching Foundation.

In addition, she has a BA (hons) degree in Contemporary Dance (LCDS) from her 4-year attendance at the famous London Contemporary Dance School and was subsequently, for a time, a professional ballet dancer. During her studies at LCDS she had weekly instruction in Pilates and Tai Chi Ch'uan alongside her ballet training, provided the strong foundations for the business she runs today.

In March 2005, Innergym was proud to receive the award of being Hertfordshire's Best Rising Star Business seeing off fierce competition throughout the county. And on 14th February INNERGYM opened its first studio in Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire. Innergym is now in it’s 6th year and it’s 3rd year at it’s current location which makes us the longest standing privately run, 1-2-1 personal training studio in the area.
