James Forsell
Head Coach
Personal Trainer
In 2021, I was stuck in a rut and struggling with motivation. I made the decision to adopt a healthier lifestyle, which led to me losing 6 stone and starting my fitness journey. Over time, I fell in love with fitness, prioritising performance over aesthetics, and pushing myself by competing in events like Hyrox, local gym competitions, and even running 10k a day for 70 consecutive days for charity.
I now support our sports therapists by delivering rehab programs in our rehabilitation gym, helping clients progress through their recovery while also providing personalised coaching to achieve their fitness goals. Helping others unlock their potential is my passion, and I am committed to guiding you every step of the way.

What Our Patients Say
Their Reviews:
Megan Geddes
Kyle at TSTC is excellent! I come here regularly for sports massages, and each session makes a real difference. He is highly skilled, professional, and always tailors the treatment to my needs, whether it's for general maintenance or addressing specific muscle tightness. Thanks to his treatments, I’ve noticed quicker recovery times and better performance in the gym. I always leave feeling much better, with improved mobility and reduced tension. The clinic has a great atmosphere, and the service is fab!
Gregg Hydes
After injuring my shoulder, I decided to seek professional help and booked a consultation with Kyle at TSTC. Kyle suggested I go on the Rehab to Results pathway, as I needed more than just a few ‘tune up’ sessions. The plan combined new training with rehab exercises to help me gradually rebuild strength. Kyle’s constant support through weekly messages and calls helped me fully understand the process. I’m grateful for the tailored care and ongoing communication that made a huge difference in my recovery.
Brenda Mellors
Following a chronic and protracted bout of sciatica resulting in a fall downstairs I damaged my knee and had a debilitating walking problem. I was so upset and accepted I would never improve and my active lifestyle would be ended. I'd wasted time for 18 months going to MSK Clinic, Bupa, Consultant Surgeon (who found nothing wrong). I saw Tom who immediately diagnosed and treated the problem in an innovative way. I can now walk normally and look forward to leading a normal life again. I am very grateful and feel I was fortunate to choose this clinic.
Kelvin Travers
I visited Nic in early 2024 after injuring my knee in a marathon, which left me unable to walk without pain. Running was such an important part of my life, and the injury also took a mental toll.
After our consultation, I joined the Rehab to Results pathway. Within weeks, I was running again, pain-free. Nic’s support, training, and advice helped me heal and prevent future injuries.
The programme fit perfectly around my busy life, and I’d highly recommend TSTC, especially to runners. I’d reach out to Nic again if needed.
Carole Clifford
The staff are dedicated to helping you get the best out of yourself. It’s like having your own personal trainer, but with the added benefit of camaraderie, as you train alongside three others. This creates a sense of belonging and motivates you to push yourself further. At 60, with a defective hip, I’ve become much stronger through these classes, thanks to excellent guidance on proper technique. It’s allowed me to keep running—my passion—and I’m noticeably leaner and more toned. It’s tough, but the results are definitely worth it, and the support is fantastic.
