Both formats can work. The right choice depends on your confidence, need for attention, budget, schedule and the kind of accountability you enjoy.
Choose 1-on-1 for individual attention
One-on-one training is usually best when you want close technique coaching, a highly personalised plan, privacy or support around specific goals and barriers.
Choose semi-private for shared energy
Semi-private training can be a strong fit when you want coaching and accountability but enjoy a small-group feel, shared momentum and a more social environment.
Start with fit, not labels
Many clients are not sure what they need until they speak with a trainer. A free discovery session can help decide which format is most likely to keep you consistent.

Can I switch formats later?
