Ten top instructors where clients achieve their fitness goals

This year's theme is 'Your health is your life' on the UK's most active day of the year with hundreds of people across Wirral being inspired to try something new or continue on their fitness journey.

Today, Wednesday, is aimed at encouraging people of all ages, abilities and backgrounds to recognise and celebrate the life-long physical and mental benefits of being active.

With the support of Movember and Endurance Zone, National Fitness Day will support people taking their first step on their health journey.

Earlier this year, we searched for Wirral's best fitness of gym instructor.

We wanted to celebrate yoga and pilates instructors, body pump and spin teachers and personal trainers and we put together a top ten.

Simon Daniels was the runaway winner beating off some tough competition.

Here are the shortlisted top ten - will you book a class or workout session on National Fitness Day?
