About me

Who is Maria Righetti, you may well ask, and why should you choose her as your Personal Trainer?

Maria Righetti
Qualified personal fitness trainer

Maria started her career in the Health and Fitness industry in 1991, when living in Millport and running two fish and chip shops. Sounds a bit like one of those Scotsman type jokes – talking about health and fitness in the same sentence as fish and chip shops – but Maria illustrates the benefits of eating everything in moderation and exercising regularly!

At that time, there were no exercise facilities or classes in Millport. Maria worked out regularly to her fitness videos at home and started running to build her strength and stamina. She was a familiar sight to all the locals, running the ten mile plus road round the island most days!

She was repeatedly asked by locals to start an exercise class and kicked off her career in health and fitness with no less than forty people turning up for her first class, which she held in the local school and donated the class fees to school funds. She realised she would need qualifications to carry on taking regular classes and worked hard to achieve the appropriate qualifications in a wide range of disciplines while building up her weekly classes in a number of Ayrshire locations.

Personal Training

A chance meeting with a Lawyer looking for personal training led Maria into this area of health and fitness and she has been working as a fully qualified Personal Trainer for over ten years now. She is constantly investing in the latest science and technology in sport and her gymnasium boasts a Power Plate Machine, Kinesis System and Pilates Reformer as well as traditional exercise equipment including Cross Trainer, Tread Mill, Rowing Machine and an extensive range of weights.

"Many people can be intimidated by the thought of joining a Gym," said Maria. "At Fit-2-gether, I work on a one to one basis with clients and create a bespoke exercise programme, designed to deliver maximum results. Some people want to get fit, some want to lose weight, some want to run a marathon to mark a big birthday and some are looking for a better work/life balance with less stress. I have teenage clients and clients in their twenties, thirties, forties, fifties, sixties and seventies. Age is no barrier."

Maria practices what she preaches. She herself exercises regularly and has several marathons under her belt, plus a few more earmarked for completion in the next few months. Give her a call and chat to her about your personal exercise and nutritional requirements. Her delightful blend of experience, knowledge and common sense will motivate and encourage you to a fitter and happier you. Contact her now to find out more.
