Meet the team Heartbeat International Gym is owned by Jon Francis and run with the help of Kai Engels and Ann Macfarlane. Together, our small but effective team have all the skills and knowledge to help all our members and clients in the pursuit of health, fitness and happiness. JON is 43 years old and comes from London. He is fortunate enough to be the gym owner. He has lived in Spain for 3 years on La Marina Urb. Jon took early retirement from the Metropolitan Police (don’t let that put you off) having received a severe knee injury while on duty in London, so he considers himself quite an expert in this field. Jon spent much of his career training his fellow officers in the art of physical education. He is the “Heart” of the Gym and is responsible for the wellbeing of the clients. Jon also creates most of the tailored workouts for the members. KAI is also 43, although you would never have thought so. She is a keen health fanatic and currently studying a diploma course in the science of nutrition, so she is always willing to give advice on diet and the benefits of healthy eating. Kai is originally from Holland but has lived in Spain on and off for 30 years. She speaks five European languages fluently and is always on hand to help our clients with any problems they might encounter here in Spain. She generally takes care of all the administrative tasks and deservedly prides herself in keeping the gym spotlessly clean and running smoothly. As such Kai is the “International Beat” of the gym and complements the surroundings perfectly. ANN is 52 and from England. She has lived in Spain for 4 years. Her role in the gym is the management of our 8 toning tables and vibration plate. She is fully qualified in all aspects of this form of exercise, having recently undergone an intensive “Shapemaster” training course. She is constantly on hand to make sure the clients get the best from their workout. Ann is a kind, gentle and friendly lady. She fits the bill perfectly for all our “Toning Table” members. Contact Us
