Wilder Wellbeing: Opinions
Fantastic experience: This was my second time joining Marc & a group of lovely people on a Diamond Hill climb, swim & sauna. The first time was so good, I had to come back & the second time was just as good. It was a great day from start to finish & im really looking forward to the next day out!
Joanne thanks so much was so good having you back again, here's to many more adventures and thanks for bringing the craic!
Fantastic experience: I recently attended the Wilder Movement Weekend in Sligo, and I can confidently say it was an incredible experience! From start to finish, the organization was top-notch. Mark put a lot of thought and effort into creating a welcoming and engaging atmosphere. The weekend was packed with a variety of fun activities that catered to all interests. Whether you were into hiking, sauna, food or simply enjoying the beautiful surroundings, there was something for everyone. I particularly enjoyed the guided hikes, which offered breathtaking views of the Sligo landscape and an opportunity to connect with nature and fellow participants. Overall, the Wilder Movement Weekend was a fantastic blend of adventure, community, and relaxation. I can't recommend it highly enough for anyone looking to connect with nature and like-minded individuals. I’m already looking forward to the next event!
Steph what a pleasure it was to have you as part of the crew last week and can’t wait for the next one with ya! Roll on April
Fantastic experience: Did the Wilder Weekend group hiking trip in Sligo at the weekend and couldn’t recommend it enough. Didn’t know anybody joining but made some fab connections over the weekend. Everything from the accomodation to the food and craic was 10/10. Mark is great at letting everyone go at their own pace and keeping the vibes high! Had a great weekend and can’t wait for the next one
Fantastic experience: Had a great weekend in Sligo with Wilder Wellbeing! It was the perfect way to connect with like-minded people while enjoying the outdoors. The hikes, sauna, and sea swimming were all great fun, and everything was so well-organized—all you have to do is turn up and enjoy! Highly recommend for anyone looking to recharge in nature. Can’t wait for the next one
Fantastic experience: Really enjoyed the mum and baby classes a lovely group to be a part of and a great work out! Thanks Marc.
Thanks so much Laura
Fantastic experience: I had the most amazing weekend with Mark / Wilder Wellbeing, enjoying guided hikes and a forest walk, open sea swimming and sauna, and lots of craic! The balance between planning and flexibility was perfect, allowing us to adapt to individual needs and changing weather conditions. As someone new to Ireland, I really appreciated how Mark made sure I got everywhere safely. I can highly recommend the trips organised by Wilder Wellbeing and look forward to joining more adventures!
Sophie well done and thanks so much for coming! It was great to have you as part of the crew and to help you explore Sligo some more!
Fantastic experience: I did three terms of Mum and Baby classes with Marc at Wilder Wellbeing. Would very much recommend - the classes are challenging and supportive and allow you to progress at your own pace. Coffee with the group after helps with the motivation too!
Sinead thank you so much, was an absolute pleasure having you you both down and to see your progress! Best of luck with returning to work!
Fantastic experience: Fantastic postnatal fitness classes, Mark is a brilliant coach who is not only expertly trained in all things physical health, he is also very tuned in to the emotional and mental side to postnatal recovery and that's what makes the mum and baby classes such a wonderful space ❤️ I really enjoyed meeting other mums and all the babies were happy out for the duration of the session, as the atmosphere was relaxed but motivating at the same time. Really proud of my progress so far, so thanks a million Mark
Niamh thank you so much, it was a pleasure having you and Matteo down and safe travels to France! I am so glad you got so much out of the classes
Fantastic experience: Recently did a Wilder Wellbeing event which included an overnight stay in Big Atlantic Lodge, Sauna Sessions and a hike of Croagh Patrick. This was the most perfect way to spend a bank holiday weekend. Very wholesome, great bunch of people, and Mark was the perfect host. Looking forward to the next planned event ☺️
Jess thanks so much was an absolute pleasure having you down and delighted you got so much from it! Roll on the next one
Fantastic experience: I first discovered Wilder Well-Being in May 2022 when Mark text me as I followed the Instagram page. I was ever so kindly invited to a free class and was blown away by the energy of Mark as a trainer and the people availing of his classes. From then on I struck up a friendship with Mark and can’t speak enough of the quality of his classes which I still attend whenever possible. The intensity of the sessions push you to your physical and mental limits and you always leave his class feeling you have emptied the tank. His well-being events which involve Hiking, Sauna, Sea Swimming and connections with some great people have also been an incredible experience for myself. I really cannot recommend getting involved with Wilder Well-Being enough it’s a brilliant service.
Dude thanks so much, a pleasure to train and a pleasure to hang as always! I owe ya a class!
Fantastic experience: Firstly, what an amazing event, from the first moment of interaction until then end saying our thank yous and farewells, A*. It is always nerve wracking going on any trip solo/not knowing anyone, I had my two buddies with me which helped with the initial ‘hi’. And then we all just slipped into it, the vibes from the weekend were really good everyone just seemed to gel which is amazing to see and be apart of. There was absolutely no pressure felt throughout, only on the knees coming down the mountain. I personally wasn’t feeling the best leading up to the event, I’d had a lot going on the few weeks before and wasn’t sure if I even wanted to be sociable, but you know what.. It couldn’t have come at a better time. I got so much from the Wilder Wellbeing event, it was great chatting and laughing with like minded people who enjoy hiking, cold water dipping and getting away as much as I do. I was like a new woman leaving. I bounced into work the next day. So thank you Mark for sending that initial ‘welcome to the community message’ as that interaction also had a lot to do with why I said yes. Keep up the amazing work you do and hopefully I will see you soon at another overnight hiking cold dipping event :-)
Fantastic experience: What a phenomenal experience! I signed up as a solo traveller and the group couldn't have been more welcoming. It was so lovely to connect with people looking for an adventure. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend, and even if you're a solo traveller, just do it ! You'll come away with new friends and connections as well as a great experience
Fantastic experience: I joined Marks wilder weekend this October bank holiday where we climbed Croagh Patrick and enjoyed some saunas, swims, and some lovely food as well as an overnight stay in Mayo. Mark was so welcoming and friendly and really had planned the whole event so well, always prioritising the groups safety. Will definitely be back again!
Fantastic experience: Had a wonderful weekend and would highly recommend Marc, everything was so well organised
Fantastic experience: Absolutely fabulous weekend at the wilder wellbeing event for the long weekend. I left the place like a new woman after non stop laughter, connection and movement with a great gang. Couldn’t recommend this trip enough for anyone thinking about it!
Jayde thanks so much for being a part of such a wonderful crew! Makes me happy to know you got so much from the weekend!
Fantastic experience: The Social Saturday event exceeded my expectations. A well-planned event that ran smoothly. Relaxed and friendly vibe with like-minded, open individuals. Plenty of opportunities to connect with others. A wholesome experience over all!
Isha thank you so much I am delighted to hear the event exceeded your expectations! Was lovely chatting to ye guys and having the craic and hope to see you at another event soon!
Fantastic experience: Took part in group hike, sauna and sea swim event with Wilder Wellbeing this weekend. It was the most fun I've had in ages! You are encouraged to enjoy the walk at your own pace and this gives you time to connect with others. We had some stunning views at the top and a great laugh in the sea and sauna after. Mark was a wonderful guide and I can't wait to take part in another event soon :)
Eimear thank you so much it was great getting to re-connect with you again and will happily have you down anytime! Thanks again!
Fantastic experience: A brilliant experience! Very well organised and I’ll be back!
Fiona lovely to meet you and Colm and thanks for bringing all that you did!
Fantastic experience: I joined Mark's social Saturday yesterday & had such a fantastic day, thank you Mark! There was a group of 15 like-minded people, I found it so welcoming. The day was so relaxed, focused on connection & chats, everybody went at their own pace, which I loved. I'm looking forward to the next event already.
Aw Rebecca thanks so much it was really great having you on the trip and am so happy you got so much out of it!
Fantastic experience: What a SUPER day out! Great company, beautiful views & delicious snacks. My husband and I really enjoyed the whole day! Thank you!
Claire thanks to you and Charlie was great leaping off Pier's and having the craic with you!
Fantastic experience: I was nervous joining a fitness class as I hadn't worked out in a few years & was unsure of my ability. Mark made me feel very comfortable and welcome from the very 1st session ensuring I was settled in. The hard part is showing up - after that Mark did the work to keep us all motivated and engaged throughout the tough workouts! I felt stronger and healthier from attending the classes after only a couple of weeks, with various body aches disappearing. Aside from the workout, there is also a lovely welcoming community at these classes - going for swims, coffees and chats which brightened up my winter mornings! Couldn't recommend the wilder wellbeing classes more
Cathy thank you so much! It genuinely made my day reading how the classes and community impacted you! Was an absolute pleasure having you down!
Fantastic experience: Excellent Mum and Baby fitness class. My baby loved this class! During one of the classes my baby wanted to join in, Mark was more than happy to carry him around in the baby carrier allowing me to focus on exercise. I always felt fantastic after the class even on the days I thought I was too tired to go. There was a welcoming atmosphere from the beginning and everyone works at their own pace. I’m fitter and stronger thanks to Mark. Mark is knowledgeable and creates a lovely, safe and fun class which is vital for us new Mums. Try it out, you won’t regret it.
Fantastic experience: The postnatal classes with Marc really are worth their weight in gold. They have really benefited me after having baby number two and helped me to gain my strength back in my upper and lower body. The workouts themselves were enjoyable and catered towards your own ability. Marc took his time to go through each exercise carefully in the beginning which was very helpful.
Fantastic experience: Marc’s post natal classes are absolutely excellent on many levels. Marc takes a lot of time and care to make sure you are doing the excercise properly and that they are Catered to your stage of recovery and your ability. He will push you as time goes on but always gently and bringing the craic. When I started I had never done weight classes before and now I can lift a 14kg kettle bell. There is a really good focus on pelvic floor and mindfulness and breathing after the class. I loved these classes and meeting the other mums with their babies. Never a problem if your baby starts crying dueing the class. Also big shout out to the after class protein balls-it’s worth it for those alone! Thanks and best of luck Marc
Fantastic experience: Really enjoy going to Mark's classes every week. I always feel better and motivated for the day ahead after attending his early morning classes. Everybody is super friendly and encouraging. Very inviting atmosphere, no judgement on your level of fitness. Mark is great at providing guidance for each exercise and will suggest alternative ones if you aren't able to perform them. I would definitely recommend joining.
Yvonne thank you so much! Was a pleasure having you down and will look forward to you popping into Barna! Thanks again!
Fantastic experience: Mark is a fantastic trainer…really pushed me! Thanks Mark and best wishes in your new location.
Fantastic experience: I recently attended a wilder well-being self care Sunday and what an amazing experience it was! Marks HIIT class was the perfect mix of intensity and high energy enthusiasm! Eimears yoga session that followed was the perfect way to relax and unwind after - followed by a unique sauna experience and yummy healthy snacks! It was exactly what I needed and I’m so grateful to have experienced it. We left feeling so absolutely zen I can hardly describe it. An amazing experience thanks again.
Fantastic experience: I went to self care sunday and couldnt recommend highly enough. Class was absolutely fantastic. Mark has great energy and can really get the crowd going. Everyone was so friendly. Such an enjoyable morning. Highly recommend. Thank you so much.
Fantastic experience: Mark's postnatal class is a fantastic option for mothers looking to get moving in a safe environment while enjoying fresh air and having the craic. The class is designed with postnatal recovery in mind and is suitable for all fitness levels. Mark is knowledgeable about postnatal fitness and really understands that some days the energy levels might not be there. The class fosters a social environment which is so important during the postpartum period, and beyond. It's an excellent way to regain fitness, connect with other mums, and enhance your mental well-being. Highly recommended!
Fantastic experience: Thanks so much Marc, we thoroughly enjoyed our Friday morning class and the lovely treat after. There was always such fun and banter in the classes and it was so enjoyable. We loved attending, thanks so much
Fantastic experience: Really enjoyed these Wilder Wednesday morning classes, I never thought I'd get out if my comfy bed and exercise at 6.30am but I did and I felt amazing for it. The classes were mixed level so never felt out of my depth and really loved being part of a community of people up at 6 in the morning exercising outside!!! Thanks Mark, il defo be joining future events
Deirdre thank you so much! And thank you for being part of the wilder Wednesday community! Would love to have ya back down again soon
Fantastic experience: A wonderful initiative! There was such a special community feel every Wednesday ! It was the best hump day cure. Marks energy and enthusiasm is infectious ✨️
Aw thanks Caitlin, delighted you felt part of the Community, it’s so important for me to have my Community around me so thanks for being a part of that!
Fantastic experience: I trained with Mark and was the fittest I've ever been, he's very motivation
Thanks KT was such great craic having you down!
Fantastic experience: I was part of the run club in Dangan. Loved it!
Thanks Susan! Run club coming back next week!
Fantastic experience: Love working out at Wilder Wellbeing. Mark is a great coach, very motivating, upbeat and encouraging. Great community of people looking to boost their wellbeing. Highly recommend these classes - have done the weekly ones as well as the post natal ones more recently ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thanks so much Claire always love having ye guys down!
Fantastic experience: Amazing weekend, making some new friends & completing new challenges! I can’t wait for the next Trip! Special thank you to Mark for making it so fun and enjoyable! ✨
Zoe thanks so much always a pleasure having you and the family down!
Fantastic experience: I had the pleasure to participate a couple of times in a Wilder workout and thoroughly enjoyed it. It was my reason to wake up early and start the day strong. Mark has a personality which makes you comfortable and keeps you motivated. I would highly recommend to try his training and experience something healthier and Wilder.
Fantastic experience: I really enjoyed the Wilder Wellbeing Wednesday morning classes. Mark is so motivating with his energy and enthusiasm! He made a 6:30am class fun and enjoyable! Thanks so much!
Fantastic experience: Brilliant initiative combining exercise, cold water therapy and the outdoors midweek before work. Enjoyable class and instructor!
Fantastic experience: The May classes were such a brilliant experience to be outside with the worms especially . So many joined in, the humour is always good at classes but for some reason these were more engaging. Great to get up and get out early have the exercise done but to be able to have been outside for that bit too before being stuck inside all day. It really was good fun and a great idea, great bunch and great instruction. Delighted to have been able to take part. Would definitely do it again and recommend it to anyone
Fantastic experience: Fantastic class, great atmosphere
Fantastic experience: I was lucky enough to be able to attend 4 of the classes in May. I loved every minute of it ( maybe not the High knees ) I will really miss the classes. Thank you Mark for doing this for us. Your exuberant energy was infectious. It was so evident that you love what you do and you care about people and their mental health. Thanks again.
Fantastic experience: Very enjoyable class, excellent way to start the mornings.
Fantastic experience: Thoroughly enjoyed our Wednesday morning classes with Mark! What a wonderful way to start the day!
Fantastic experience: I really enjoyed Marks wednesday morning classes in Salthill. Its the first time ive felt motivated to get up so early (6.30!) for a class..and to keep it up! Thanks Mark
Fantastic experience: Amazing!! The classes were great, I made all 5 Wellbeing Wednesdays and really enjoyed them. It was hard to get up so early in the morning but I felt better and more motivated to go each time! Mark is a true wellbeing enthusiast and encourages you to do the best you can.
Fantastic experience: Tiny moments of daily connection are proven to make us all mentally healthy. Mark’s fitness classes combine this sense of community with movement to build strength in both body and mind.
Fantastic experience: Great classes in a fabulous location. Lovely atmosphere & a friendly group.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Marks classes. I attended the Wednesday class @6:30am and I’m gutted there’s no more on as I really enjoyed them and it really set me up for the day!! Hopefully he will continue to do a few over the summer lovely person to chat to. Overall 10/10.
Fantastic experience: Marks classes are absolute game changer - and this is coming from someone who doesn't really enjoy exercise as such. I honestly laughed so much, and felt like I did way more good for my body in 1 class rather than several gym sessions doing bits on my own. Mark has a very nice way about him, he's very approachable, kind and always with a smile on his face, I genuinely couldn't recommend Wilder Wellbeing classes enough, you won't regret it And also, prepare to laugh like mad, there's no way you'd leave a glass with no smile on your face
Fantastic experience: Fantastic class. You feel both physically and mentally great after it.
Fantastic experience: Loved the Wednesday morning sessions. Great start to the day! Mark is so enthusiastic and compassionate. He encourages you to push yourself but gives you the space to slow it down if needed. Also made it really fun which kept me coming back (at 6.30am!)
Fantastic experience: Really enjoyed the post natal classes, would highly recommend for getting back to some exercise after having a baby! Marc caters really well to all fitness levels and you never feel out of your depth. He is really helpful with the babies if required.
Emma thanks so much for coming down and starting your journey with us!
Fantastic experience: Great day out organised by mark wilder wellbeing everything was organised comfortably from the start until the very end. The hike, sauna & sea swim dip were all amazing! The hike is for everyone, all fitness brackets are welcomed. Mark makes sure everyone is ok throughout the hike with short breaks. The cocoa treats went down a delight after our dip. Thank you Mark, I feel 100 times lighter for sure. Great wellness day out to leave all the stresses behind
Melanie thanks so much and love the photos! Was great having you and having the chats and delighted you got so much from the day! Come back again!
Fantastic experience: I had a great weekend at Wilder Wellbeing’s event. No better way to spend a bank holiday weekend with a night away at one of the most beautiful locations in the West of Ireland, Big Style Atlantic Lodge. We climbed Croagh Patrick, followed by a sauna session and finished the night off with some tasty pizza!
Always a pleasure having you on board Sir thanks so much for coming!
Fantastic experience: I came across Marks page on Instagram and decided to give his class's a go. !His class's are great and for every fitness level! I joined his wilder weekend over the easter weekend and it was such a brilliant weekend!!What a fab bunch of people! Mark and Annmarie made the whole weekend very enjoyable! Looking forward to his next event already!
Claire thanks so much it’s great having you at classes and the events
Fantastic experience: I had such a lovely weekend on the Wilder wellbeing weekend away. I was missing solo travel, and was trying to find an activity that would feel similar in some way, and this was it. I met such lovely people, we were outside all weekend and Marc was such a great leader. It was also a great opportunity to get away from my phone and just chat with people and relax. I felt so refreshed coming home. 5 stars☺️☺️
Grace pleasure having you on the event and hearing that voice of yours keep it up!
Fantastic experience: Absolutely fantastic weekend, Marc is a gent and ye wouldn’t fault him on anything!!! Great bunch of people that came along and I would 100% recommend this to anyone! Making memories and feeling good
Shane thanks so much for coming and making memories for the weekend!
Fantastic experience: Such an excellent experience at the Wilder weekend hike. Well organised, great fun, Marc and Anne Marie were so helpful in every way. Really recommend 10/10
Carrie thanks so much was great having you and can’t wait to do it all again!
Fantastic experience: What a great weekend with such amazing people!
Great having you on both events Conor
Fantastic experience: I booked (very last minute) the The Wilder Weekend in Mayo with Wilder Wellbeing and from booking to saying good bye, everything was flawless. If you're looking to reconnect with nature, challenge yourself, and make new friends, I highly recommend joining Marc for his next adventure. Marc brought together 12 people from all corners of Ireland and somehow made it work so well. We hiked up Croagh Patrick, shared plenty of chats, laughs, a few games, and dozens delicious home made pizzas. The sauna sessions, cold plunges, and hot tub were absolute highlights, all against the breathtaking backdrop of Clare Island. Thanks to Marc and Annmarie's encouragement, I even mustered the courage to take my first winter sea swim! Thank you, Marc and Annmarie, for an unforgettable weekend—I can't wait to do it all again!
Manuela it was a pleasure and fair play for jumping in that ocean
Fantastic experience: Wilder Wellbeing is fantastic in every single way - if you are considering attending any of their events/classes just do it! You will not be disappointed! Classes are the best workouts for every level, and if you are lucky to attend one of their events or days out you will see just how amazing a group this is! Fantastic community and Marc is a top bloke - couldn’t recommend this place more, highest of high regards!!
Eric you gent thanks so much for coming along and don’t forget to come down to that free class!
Fantastic experience: Really enjoyed the mother and baby classes
Thanks so much Carol was great having you!
Fantastic experience: I started classes with Marc and Wilder Wellbeing in November when my daughter was 5 months. I feel I found myself again by joining this class. It was more than an exercise class, it is an outlet, a time for me along with my daughter. I wish I joined sooner but personally I didn't think I was ready. I know now the class goes at your pace and Marc will adapt it to suit your ability. I'm only finishing as I'm returning to work. A weekend morning class might be a runner?
Mary thanks so much was a pleasure having ye guys down and am delighted you found a bit of yourself again!
Fantastic experience: Marc’s post natal class are excellent for any mum looking to get back into exercise. Marc is very welcoming to all mums and baby’s. There is always great craic in the class while building up a sweat. I would recommend the class to any new mom in the area.
Eims so great having you and Agi down! Delighted you enjoyed it so much and come back soon!
Fantastic experience: The best work outs in Galway! Award winning for a reason. The workouts, the knowledge, the craic, the expertise, the view, the bants, the connections, the protein balls, the tunes. Thanks for having us over the years Mark! Can’t wait to be back.
Aw thanks Claire delighted ye guys got so much out of the workouts! See ye soon!!!
Fantastic experience: I recently moved back to Galway from overseas and was delighted to discover Wilder Mum & Baby classes. I love baby sensory, baby swimming, etc. but this class is my time each week to focus on looking after myself rather than baby. The workout is designed for easy progressions like light to heavier weights or increased range of motion and the exercises are specific to post natal recovery. For me, I realised its value when after 3 short months, I no longer felt like I was recovering after birth, I was ‘training’ again, getting stronger & feeling more like my old self. Marc has created a safe and fun environment for Mums to workout with their babies. He’s friendly, enthusiastic and even happy to hold or rock fussy babies so Mums can get as much as possible out of the class.
Fionnuala thank you so much I am so happy to hear that you feel like you’re “training” again and have moved into that phase with me , feeling stronger and more like yourself! Makes my day to hear it!
I especially enjoy rocking fussy babies with
Fantastic experience: Thoroughly enjoyed the mother and baby classes with Marc. He leads a genuine, challenging workout but caters for all abilities. He creates an extremely friendly and inclusive environment making it both an enjoyable experience as well as an opportunity to meet other mothers. The venue (a covered outside open space facing out to galway bay) is also by far the nicest ive ever excercised in. Would highly recommend!
Maire thanks so much it was great having you involved for so long! Be proud of all that progress!
Fantastic experience: I’m so grateful to have come across Marc’s Wilder Mums and Babies Postnatal Class a year after having my little boy, when I finally felt ready to get back to exercise and fitness. I was anxious about getting started but Marc is so friendly and welcoming and creates such a fun atmosphere amidst the wonderful chaos of Mums and babies. Marc is super encouraging and considerate of the different challenges that can crop up postpartum - I really appreciate how he checks in to make sure each exercise is safe for everyone. I’ve discovered that the best way to start the week is with a workout with other Mums (featuring tiny humans), outside, looking out at the sea ☺️ I would highly recommend this to Mums at any stage postpartum.
Aw Ciara that has made my day to read thanks so much!!! I love the "wonderful chaos" too lol Its a pleasure to have ye guys down!
Fantastic experience: Love this fitness class! Really enjoy the outdoor setting - there is nothing like a sea view in the sunshine! Marc is very encouraging whilst pushing you to progress and the classes feel very personalised with a good measure of fun always! It's a bonus to be able to bring my little one and meet with the other mums! Definitely recommend it!
Thanks so much Emmeline, such a pleasure to have ye both down and watch your progress
Fantastic experience: Joined the Mum & Baby post partum class. Love every minute of it, great atmosphere, great bunch of ladies (and babies). Marc is very knowledgeable, friendly & supportive. Would highly recommend.
Thanks so much Kate, delighted you feel the support, and yes we do have a fantastic bunch of Babies down keeping us on our toes
Fantastic experience: Really enjoyable post natal class. Marc is a ball of positive energy and well versed on easing us back in to fitness. It’s Lovely to meet other mums and get the chance to workout outdoors when the weather allows.
Thanks so much Trudy great having you back for baby #2 and fair play on all the hiking ️
Fantastic experience: Great place. Love exercising outside. Mark is brilliant and he knows his stuff.
Thanks Niki!!!
Fantastic experience: After the first class (12 weeks postpartum) I felt a part of my older self coming back again. I had a difficult pregnancy and an emergency section so movement had been little no none for me for a good while. Meeting Mark and the lovely Mums gave me the confidence to get stuck into the classes. Mark knows his stuff and will not let you over exert yourself. He is constantly on the ball making sure each movement is suitable for every mum.The craic is always mighty, giggles guaranteed and there's always a protein ball at the end of class (reason why we all go if you ask me). Mummies can bring their babies if they don't have the support so it's literally no excuses. If you are post partum and are in doubt about getting back to or starting exercise, this is your sign.
Aisling thanks so much, I am absolutely delighted to hear you feel part of your self coming back, not easy getting back to exercise after an emergency section so well done, be proud and lets keep enjoying our sessions!
Fantastic experience: Marks WilderMums postnatal classes should be broadcasted to every new parent out there! His classes are so informative and helpful to new mams starting to get back into exercise. The classes are held outside where possible which adds a freedom to the class that’s unmatched to any other class I’ve done! Would recommend him time and time again.
Megan thanks so much! I am delighted you are enjoying the classes so much and finding them informative! It’s a pleasure having you down and be proud of your progress
Fantastic experience: Absolutely love Marc's post natal class at Wilder wellbeing. He is extremely knowledgeable in this area. Where possible, training is provided outdoors with sea views which is lovely and calming and great for the mind. The protein balls at the end of the class are a super bonus. Highly rate the class and trainer.
Cathy thanks so much, you will be missed and well done on all your progression! Glad you enjoyed the views!
Fantastic experience: Always love going to Mark's class. Exercising in the fresh air with beautiful views of Galway Bay. What's not to love. I always feel great afterwards
Fantastic experience: Since starting with wilder wellbeing I've been the most consistent with exercise in my life. Would highly recommend if you want to nourish your body and soul!
Fantastic experience: Grateful to have this class available so close to me. Outdoor classes, beautiful view, strength training, cardio, mat, kettle bells , weights all provided. Mark's clear explanation and speaks loud so u can hear at all times. Free class to check it out to see if it's for you. The best way to start your day before 7hrs sitting at my computer.
Fantastic experience: I always enjoy Mark's classes, he is friendly and encouraging!
Fantastic experience: Amazing fitness class with the best views! I always hated the fake air of the AC and the body-centric atmosphere of gyms. This class allows you to be outdoors without getting drenched if it rains, and have the best views over Galway bay and the sunrise too. The times are ideal for a pre-work morning without having to rush after. And there is a real fun atmosphere!
Fantastic experience: An excellent workout class that's the perfect balance between do-able and a challenge! Fun, social, outdoors and effective. Leaves you feeling better, stronger and wanting to return for another class and another! Marc is an excellent trainer who let's you know the health benefits and keeps you motivated throughout!
Fantastic experience: The postnatal fitness class is a great way back into exercising after having a baby. Mark's classes are motivational, inclusive and fun, exercising outside in the fresh sea air while having lovely views. Defo recommend this class so you can get out of the house, get fit(ter) and meet some other moms. You'll love it!
Fantastic experience: Having Marks HIIT classes as part of my weekly routine has been the best decision I've made for my overall health. I've been doing 3 classes every week for a year and a half now and it is what kick started my focus on healthier living. The fact that you pay as you go is a great motivation for me as I'll never miss a class if I've payed for it. You are only booking a week or a class at a time so fits into my busy and changing schedule. The classes are tough but always enjoyable and always a great crew to exercise and laugh with. Mark knows how to support, encourage and push you when he thinks you need it. Highly recommend!!
Fantastic experience: All the classes at Wilder Wellbeing are great, I like that they start early, as very few classes in Galway do. It's an amazing way to begin the day and the setting at the driving range is perfect for being outside while also protected from the often wild West weather. But beyond all that, Mark is such a genuine guy and is clearly not just in it for the business. He has a passion for people and I've been amazed at how he keeps up with the names of so many folks. He makes everyone feel welcome whether as a first-time attendee or a regular. I also really appreciate the student discount options.
Fantastic experience: Mark is always so nice and a great work out guaranteed with spectacular views! What more would you want.
Fantastic experience: I recently did a Wilder Strength class on a Tuesday morning at the old driving range and I loved it! I really enjoyed being outside and sheltered. Mark is welcoming and a fantastic trainer; I am a complete newbie to fitness, and I felt supported enough to push myself and left the class surprised with myself and proud. So happy I tried - and got my first class free! Mats and weights are provided. Will definitely be returning and recommending to all I know :') Thanks Mark!
