Indeed, eighteen years is a magnificent milestone. This month, our wonderful Fitness4Less Colchester club is preparing for a huge change. Specifically, we are saying a heartfelt goodbye to our Assistant Manager, Sarah Moffat.
For nearly two decades, Sarah has been a friendly face on the gym floor. She has been a supportive guide to our members and an essential part of the Fitness4Less family.
She is now getting ready to step into her next big adventure. So, we sat down with Sarah to look back on her incredible journey. She shared her favourite memories and spoke about the wonderful community she helped to build.
A Growing Club with an Unbeatable Spirit
Over the last 18 years, the Fitness4Less Colchester club has seen plenty of changes. For example, we have introduced new equipment and fresh fitness trends. However, through all the growth, one special element has remained completely unchanged.
Sarah shares warmly: "The club has evolved through the years with lots of changes along the way. However, the community spirit has always stood out. Members became friends, not just to me but to each other."

A Heartfelt Message to Our Members
Sarah has spent countless hours on the gym floor. Specifically, she has spent her time coaching, encouraging, and personal training so many of you. Because of this, she wanted to share a very special parting message. This goes out to all the familiar faces she has seen every week.
"I am going to miss all the members who have been such a huge part of my life here," Sarah says. "Keep being awesome and smashing those goals. After all, health is wealth! I am incredibly grateful to have personal trained so many lovely members along the way. They trusted me to help them achieve their goals. This is something that will stay with me forever."

Nearly Two Decades of Standout Memories
Obviously, when you spend almost 20 years in one place, you collect some brilliant memories. Many of these will always bring a smile to your face. For Sarah, those memories span from fun club events to deeply personal milestones.
"Back when I started, we had a Bond-themed night at the club," she laughs. "We also enjoyed many Christmas get-togethers with both members and staff. We have seen the fitness space industry change. New things are always entering. Hyrox is the new kid on the block. Meanwhile, members are looking after their wellbeing with classes like Yoga and Pilates. Also, team teaching with Heidi in our Bodypump classes always brought a smile to our faces!"

Working at the club has also been the backdrop to Sarah’s own life journey. "For me, personal milestones include watching my children grow up while working here," she adds. "They even joined in as they got older! In addition, I have loved growing through each role I have held at the club. Best of all, I met my husband here!"
Celebrating the Fitness4Less Colchester Team Spirit
Of course, a great gym environment does not happen by accident. It is built by a dedicated team working closely together every single day.
We asked Sarah what she will miss most about working alongside the Fitness4Less Colchester staff and managers. In response, she immediately points to that shared passion.
"I will miss being part of the team," Sarah says. "I will also miss the way fitness brings everyone together. We all work hard to bring a great club environment to our members."
Sarah’s Top Fitness Wisdom: Keep it Fun!
Are you trying to stay consistent with your fitness routine? Or are you hesitant to take that first step into the gym? Sarah leaves us with some beautiful words of wisdom.
"Have fun with it! The minute it becomes too serious or restrictive it can become a chore," Sarah explains. "Love what you do. Most importantly, remember the reason why you started in the first place."
The Next Exciting Adventure
Ultimately, we are all going to miss Sarah immensely. However, we are also excited to see her shine in her next role. Fortunately, she will still be working in the fitness space as an assistant manager. This means she will not be too far away!
"My next chapter is with a new company in the fitness space as assistant manager," Sarah says. "I won’t be far away. I will pop in and keep in touch with a lot of people."
Thank you for 18 years of dedication, smiles, and inspiration, Sarah. You will always be a huge part of the Fitness4Less Colchester family!
