About Ria

Ria introduced herself to Think Fit as a customer in Jan 2018 & began training as a fitness instructor in September that year.  After realising what a great asset Ria was to Think Fit, Becky asked her to join as a business partner over a bottle of pink Veuve Clicquot in June 2019.

Ria is the perfect second half of Think Fit. She is the fountain of knowledge that we can all rely on.  As well as fitness instructor & personal trainer, Ria is also an experienced Sports & Remedial Massage Therapist and has earned the nickname Ria Sands Magic Hands by some of her customers! 

What everybody knows about Ria is that she has the time for absolutely everyone and will put 100% in to ALL of you getting the absolute best from your fitness journey.   Ria recognizes the importance of exercise for mind as well as body and this definitely shows in what we offer.  

Ria is also a regular gym goer and if it’s a leg burn you are hoping for then attending any of Ria’s classes will most likely achieve this.

If you are looking to get back to fitness after an injury, or work with an existing injury then Ria can most definitely help with this too.
