Improved Mental Health
It has been widely studied that the benefits of exercise reduces stress, anxiety and depression.
Improved Fitness
Moving our bodies with freedom; (less restrictions due to injuries/ chronic pain); can significantly improve the quality of a person’s life.
Stress Management
Exercise and training with a consistent regime has been studied to help reduce stress significantly, leading to a better quality of life.
Training with
safety
For me, personal training has never just been about ticking off sets and counting steps. It’s about how you feel while you do it and what it helps you become. I believe true progress happens when you feel safe and that is when the body and mind work together.
That’s why every part of the session and all my services are delivered with intention from warm up to cool down, to every movement cue. The communication is there to support you; and give you confidence, clarity, and long-term emotional safety to carry through on that progress.
With a background in psychology, I bring insight into how mindset, motivation and emotional readiness all shape physical progress so you're not just working out, you're building wellbeing (emotional and physical strength) that lasts.
I train with Emotional and physical safety!
(Coping with 10 years of depression and bipolar disorder, gave me the experience to apply emotional awareness consistently.)
I have first hand experience with struggling to keep weight off, (dealing with mental health issues too), and losing it too quickly. You need someone who knows the struggle and can be there to support you every step of the way. That’s where I come in.

Flexible and Functional
Training is catered towards the person’s fitness level or health needs.
For a-lot of clients, in order to get them lifting safely (prevent injury) we have to focus on movement to prevent that.
So, what one person will lift will be completely different to the way another person does.
