John Dennis

John started life playing all the team sports available at school, focussing on football whilst working in America.  It was through his interest and passion for sport that John turned towards Physiotherapy.

John Dennis MCSP, physiotherapist and bike fitter is recognized as one of the most experienced fitters worldwide. John has worked as Lead Physiotherapist with British Triathlon and the English Institute of Sport. His skills as a fitter were recognized by the ground-breaking technology company Retul in its early days and was integrated into developing the global education program, delivering courses in the UK and internationally as well as providing assessment and bike fit input to numerous pro tour teams including Team Sky, Orica, MTN Qhebeka, Europcar, Radioshack and triathletes racing ITU and Ironman distance racing.

Originally from the northeast, John moved back home in 2013, met his future wife and created a replica of Velomotion which he originally founded in Milton Keynes, offering bike fit and physio services under the Physiohaüs brand. Growing his team over the next 8 years John was always keen to develop the facilities available at the practice to offer the same level of support to all clients that professional athletes have access to.  Having spent several months working in partnership with Teleri and the team at Functional Intelligent Training, they decided to merge the businesses to make the most of the bespoke facilities in Gosforth and created Momentum.

Away from work John looks for any opportunity to spend time on his bike, occasionally competing in multisport events.  He is thoroughly enjoying the experience of teaching/watching his son develop on the bike and loves to head up the northeast coast with his wife, son and dogs.
