Elite level testing made accessible for everyone

We have some of the best performance testing equipment in Dorset and the surrounding area. Our equipment has been used by top athletes such as Formula 1 racing driver Alex Albon, professional footballer Dan Gosling, para-Nordic skier Scott Meenagh, and members of the England women’s beach volleyball team.

But our equipment isn’t just for top athletes, we also help people make highly important adjustments to their general health using just the same equipment.

Whether you’re competing at the top level, for your local club, or just looking for improvements in your day to day, performance is important. Our specialist team is here to work with you, providing a bespoke service to achieve a new level of personal health and performance.
