About Us
LION - Founder
I am Lawrence Amaah aka LION and the founder of LIONFIT LDN.
I specialise in delivering a stand-out personal training & online coaching service to busy parents who are looking to stage comebacks and reclaim their lives.
LIONFIT offers members functional strength workouts, boxing, and online coaching.
Through training and nutrition I found purpose and an increase in self-confidence, energy and vitality. My role in life is to help other people on their journeys so that they too can take that handbrake off, vibrate higher and discover what it means to live fully.
I started LIONFIT because I believe that everybody deserves to live an abundantly full life. Health and wellness is the cornerstone of productive human existence and affects every aspect of our daily lives. I wanted to provide the knowledge, inspiration, and motivation for ANYONE to access physical, mental and spiritual wellbeing. I view training and exercise from a holistic health and wellness point of view because nothing in this world stands alone. Mind, body, and soul are intimately interconnected - inextricably they form the axis of our well-being and only when all are well balanced are we at our best.
As a child I grew up on a diet of 90’s action heroes like Wesley Snipes, Bruce Willis and Van Damme. Saving babies from burning buildings, fighting baddies and jumping from moving planes had me in awe. I thought these action heroes were examples of the archetypal man and I couldn’t wait to be like them when I grew up.
I boxed in my teens and fell in love with seeing ‘that will to win’ in action during tough boxing matches. Each competitor having to struggle against adversity and find a way no matter what. I then took up a career in personal training, and after over 13,000 hours of client work, three children and some challenging life situations, I had an existential revelation that health and fitness go far beyond just being fit and strong. We need the mental strength to stay focused and turn goals into daily habits. Clarity and peace of mind to feel optimism in each new day and live with vitality. Most of all we need the correct nutrition to provide the energy for day to day living and to create the right body chemistry needed for wellbeing.
Nelson Mandela used boxing to stay physically and mentally fit in isolation. Come and train with me and learn to stop just surviving and THRIVE no-matter what life throws at you. BOOM.
