About Tania
I’m Tania and I am the owner here at HITZone Shrewsbury and I love to help the town of Shrewsbury get fitter and healthier!
I’ve had my own struggles in the past with needing to lose weight and the desire to get fitter. I was intimidated by the typical gym environments out there and had wasted loads of money over the years on various membership packages I never used and was too embarrassed to cancel!
I plucked up the courage to respond to an advert on Facebook and put my trust in HITZone and have now been a member for over 6 years.
I can honestly say it has changed my life for the better. Not only have I lost weight, but I have also improved fitness, improved my mental health, and have never felt happier. I have made so many friends too.
I fell in love with exercise thanks to the short 25-minute sessions and the community the HITZone coaches and the other members create.
I took the plunge and purchased HITZone Shrewsbury in September 2022 after falling in love with what HITZone stands for and the difference it can make to individuals health and well-being. I love being able to support members on their health and fitness journey and achieve their goals and feel very privileged to be able to share their moments of achievement knowing that HITZone has played a part in them reaching their goals.
My favourite session to coach must be Tag Team Target Zone. This session plan sees partner work with lots of communication and encouragement within the pairs keeping your heart rates in the Zone! There is lots of high energy and a little competitive edge to these sessions with partners wanting to earn the most points of the session which makes for a few smiles along the way!
So, I’m asking you to put your faith in me and HITZone and you can change your life for the better too, I know on a personal level what can be achieved and what we offer at HITZone really does work!
Maggie Cain
About Maggie
I was extremely sporty & loved the great outdoors as a youngster, playing football & hockey & running cross country for my house school team.
Then, like many other Hitsona members, I got married, had children & their sports activities & teams took priority. I certainly didn’t prioritize myself, put on lots of weight, yo-you dieted & was quite comfortable being a couch potato!
My lightbulb moment came shortly after my mum died, very suddenly & totally unexpectedly. I was devastated & the only way I could escape all the stuff going around in my head was being outside but…even walking 100 metres hurt. My joints were really sore & I got out of breath really quickly & at the age of 50, I found that ridiculous & then when I tried to walk up The Wrekin & couldn’t even manage to walk the first slope without thinking I was going to die. I really had to do something about it.
I joined an outdoor circuit training class in Newport, twice per week, absolutely fell in love with it. My mindset changed, I started to make small changes in my daily routine, dropped a couple of dress sizes & found I could walk further – Halfway House, on The Wrekin which I as a massive win.
Fast forward 4 years & I was a very different person. My thirst for knowledge & understanding of what the mind & body could achieve saw me, with the complete support & backing of my husband & 3 sons, apply for a place on a PT programme.
At the same time Hitsona Telford (1st studio) was born. I was very fortunate to be asked to help take some sessions before moving to Shrewsbury when a studio opened there.
Fast Forward another 6 years & I love helping & seeing people achieve what they thought was impossible & through Hitsona I am privileged to be able to do that.
I also love being able to join in sessions at either studio too.
Hannah Preece
About Hannah
The reason I wanted to be a Coach at Hitsona is because Hitsona has helped me to improve my health and fitness despite having a chronic illness and degeneration of the spine. Issues that I previously felt prevented me from exercising.
Hitsona provided me with low impact exercise I could adapt to my ability, endless support when I was struggling, accountability when I needed it and an atmosphere that made exercise fun!
I love what I do because I’m now able to provide that same support to anyone else that needs it. I help others to improve their health and fitness and to reach their goals.
I’ve been through the same struggles that most members go through so I feel that I can relate and provide appropriate support.
It feels amazing, and is so rewarding, to see members succeed in achieving their goals and to receive feedback from them that they have enjoyed their sessions with you.

We promise you will enjoy the fun of exercise
If you’re someone that hasn’t exercised in a while, or not at all, it can look like a getting fit and health can be a daunting thought process . For couch potatoes and work-from-home professionals, getting out and about perhaps going for a run and treading the road can be an unenjoyable chore. However, exercise doesn’t have to be like that and our approach is fun in fitness a bit like finding your inner child again.

Unmatched Support & Community
Very few things are as important in a gym as the people around you. If you don’t have encouragement and support, it can feel like you’re not making any progress. Some might even be tempted to give up and that is why Hitsona is not like a gym and the isolation you may feel there as we give our members 100% support and encouragement all the way.
Our coaches at Hitsona Shrewsbury are proactive in encouraging a supportive community atmosphere, where people feel free to be themselves and work out with other people with a sense of community that you will not find in a normal gym. Our private members’ facebook group forms bonds between everyone that attends and if you don’t use social media, don’t worry because our newsletters and member only area on our website will keep you up to date with any social events or fundraisers and the members area also is a great way to stay in touch with fellow Hitsoners.
Whilst most people visit the gym for their physical health, a lot of gym goers put their mental health to one side. How exercise makes you feel is important to us and that’s why we want Hitsona workouts to be fun and exhilarating. We will ensure that your workout will increase natural endorphins and serotonin production by pushing everyone to a safe limit and once those hormones kick in you will have more mental clarity and a sense of accomplishment. We want our members to have a great time exercising and dedicate themselves to having improved mental health and a focus on becoming healthier and happier.
No Mirrors, No Egos, No Posers, No Exceptions
One of the trends that have rippled through gyms around the world in the past few years is the “TikTok workout”, where someone films their entire session just to post online for an ego boost. At Hitsona Shrewsbury, our approach couldn’t be more different and you won’t find any gym bunnies or body builders in our fitness studio.
We have a mirror-free policy, which means nobody is staring at themselves throughout a workout and nobody filming themselves lifting heavy weights. Hitsona Shrewsbury and all of our coaches, focus on our members achieving results in a fully inclusive environment of regular people with a common goal and a strict no poser policy. You don’t pay for a gym membership to be distracted by people flexing in a mirror and that is why a Hitsona membership is money well spend because we will build your confidence in our safe and fun fitness environment and how you look isn’t important, it;s how you feel that matters to us. Young or old, fat or thin, when you walk through the door, you’re one of us which is another reason why we are nothing like a gym.
