about me

I'm passionate about staying active, strong and mobile, while remaining connected to the healing powers of the body.

As a personal trainer I focus on developing integrated body strength by incorporating mobility and calisthenics into traditional strength & conditioning programs. I take a holistic approach to fitness, focussing on overall lifestyle, ensuring my clients develop a sustainable approach to staying healthy.

I've been fortunate to have experienced many competitive sports first hand, and taught by some excellent coaches and trainers along the way. I've also been blessed to have trained with gifted yoga teachers who taught me the power of recovery, self healing and staying injury free.

I'm dedicated to helping people achieve their health and fitness goals, passing on the knowledge I've gained from a broad exposure to endurance sports, resistance training, the martial arts and yoga.

Female Fitness

I also specialise in helping women establish training habits to support the physical changes experienced during perimenopause and beyond.

There is an alternative way to look at the second stage of life and it’s a stronger more energised one than many women realise.

Core Strength

As a competitive rower I'm always focussed on maintaining core strength. An essential and integral part of all my fitness programs.

I love teaching clients the benefits of using a rowing machine to build muscular endurance and cardiovascular fitness.
