Meet SERFO founder & head trainer

As a personal trainer with 17 years experience in the fitness industry, Amy has transformed the lives of countless clients.
“Your training should evolve to meet your needs as life unfolds. I’ll use the evidence base to help find the best way to meet your exercise needs and meet you where you’re currently at”
Amy’s Story
Amy has worked in the fitness industry since the age of 19. Early on in her career she recognised the potential that fitness has to empower others. The positive experiences she had as a young woman helped her develop an interest in helping other people with their health and fitness, especially other women.
Now working as a highly qualified personal trainer, Amy is passionate to empower others to have autonomy over their bodies and health. She uses scientifically accurate information in a practical format to ensure all clients receive excellent and personalised coaching, suited perfectly to their needs.
It is because of this that Amy founded SERFO, located in 82 Fitness Boutique, a studio she co-founded in 2023; an elegant training space in the heart of Zurich perfectly tailored for her clients to feel at home whilst working on their health and fitness.
Both Serfo and Amy are recognised by QualiCert. This highly esteemed Swiss mark of quality means that your personal training sessions with Serfo may qualify for reimbursement from all major health insurance companies.
