After serving 16 years in the Army, Andy developed a strong foundation in outdoor fitness and leadership. During his military career, he gained qualifications in personal training, kettlebells, running coaching, powerbags, and a wide range of specialist fitness courses. But above all, he mastered the skill he’s most proud of today: delivering fresh, fun, and challenging outdoor fitness sessions that bring out the best in everyone.

With plenty of encouragement (and a bit of persuasion!), Andy decided to take the leap and launch Maidstone Outdoor Fitness. Over ten years later, he’s still out in the park doing what he loves most — creating a community where people can train hard, make friends, and have a great time in the process.

Andy thrives on the atmosphere the members bring to every session. Nothing motivates him more than seeing people enjoy themselves, push their limits, and leave feeling accomplished. His goal is simple: everyone should walk away from each class knowing they’ve worked hard — but more importantly, that they’ve had fun.

To Andy, MOF isn’t just a fitness class.

MOF is a community — and he’s incredibly proud of it.

Jon has been part of the MOF family for many years, starting out as a dedicated member before working towards his personal training qualifications over the past few years. His passion for fitness comes from his own inspiring journey — transforming himself from being overweight to becoming a marathon runner.

Jon’s sessions are always varied, well‑structured, and delivered with his trademark calm, friendly attitude. He’s supportive, patient, and always ready to help if you’re struggling. It’s not unusual to spot him running up and down the park, encouraging everyone and keeping the energy high.

Jon brings positivity, humour, and a genuine love of fitness to every class — and we’re proud to have him as part of the team.

Scott has been in the fitness industry since 2008 and brings a wealth of experience from his time in the Army, where he served as a Physical Training Instructor (PTI) before joining the MOF team. He’s passionate about helping people achieve things they never thought possible — from struggling through their first session to completing obstacle races and even marathons.

A naturally fast and dedicated runner, Scott loves to push himself and regularly competes in races ranging from 10Ks to full marathons. One of his proudest achievements? Taking on the legendary Man vs Horse race — and smashing it.

You’ll often spot Scott flying across the park at impressive speed… but don’t worry, he’ll always loop back to check on everyone (usually with a grin). And if you hear a loud “Lower! Raise!” echoing across Mote Park, you can be sure Scott is leading the session with his usual enthusiasm and drive.

Scott brings energy, expertise, and a good dose of fun to every class — and we’re lucky to have him.

Puspa is a serving member of the Queen’s Gurkha Engineers (QGE), currently stationed at 36 Engineer Regiment at Maidstone Barracks. His military background shines through in every session — he’s incredibly strong, highly disciplined, and fully committed to his own fitness as well as yours.

His classes are always varied and full of energy. You’ll often find him taking members up Cardiac Hill, running circuits on the main field, or pushing the group through a mix of strength work, bodyweight movements, and running drills. Whatever the session, you can guarantee it will be tough, effective, and delivered with his trademark calm and kindness.

Puspa works you extremely hard, but always in a supportive and encouraging way. You’ll feel every muscle working, you’ll sweat, and you’ll definitely be challenged — but you’ll leave the session feeling strong, accomplished, and proud of what you’ve achieved.

We’re lucky to have him bringing his strength, positivity, and military work ethic to MOF.

Joanna is our dedicated PowerWave instructor, and her passion for fitness shines through in everything she does. She holds herself to an incredibly high standard, training hard and consistently to maintain her own impressive level of strength and conditioning.

As well as teaching, Joanna attends MOF classes as a member at least three times a week, and you’ll usually spot her right at the front — smashing her reps, pushing herself, and setting an amazing example for everyone around her.

Always approachable and happy to offer advice or support, Joanna is a fantastic asset to the team. Her positive energy, strong work ethic, and commitment to helping others make her classes both challenging and uplifting.

We’re proud to have her leading the PowerWave crew at MOF!
