Welsh Fitness Classic Founder Wesley Skene said, “Every athlete was incredibly inspirational. The most important part of the show was the story behind each athlete. Everyone had overcome huge challenges to even step on stage. It was an honour to create a platform to celebrate their achievements. The Welsh Fitness Classic left no stone unturned in pursuit of a world class show and production values. We are proud to say that no other show in the UK can compete with us for the standard and quality of the show we produce.”
