I love working alongside others and helping individuals achieve goals they never thought possible, encouraging them to push that little bit further and sharing their elation when they begin to notice the results.  I qualified as a Personal Trainer after deciding I wanted to expand my knowledge and skills within the fitness industry and help individuals on a one to one basis, helping them to achieve their goals and guide them through their journey to a fitter and healthier lifestyle, or training for a particular competition or event.

Health and fitness haven’t always been such a huge part of my lifestyle.  Never sporty as a child, PE lessons were the bain of my life.  After leaving college at the age of 18 with an NVQ in Business Administration I started out as a Secretary.  

 

The student lifestyle was still ruling my life, bad habits were rife, and a vicious circle was in full swing, leaving me with a low self-esteem, no confidence and very unhappy!  As my dress sizes grew, I decided to take action - I plucked up the courage and joined a gym......that was the day that changed my life FOREVER!!!!

 

Gradually my lifestyle started to change, the dress sizes slowly began to drop, my interest in exercise and group exercise was now the beginning of an obsession.  My nutrition improved, my bad habits started to dwindle away and my passion for this newfound lifestyle was growing fast, I felt amazing, my confidence was growing and felt a great sense of achievement.

 

In 2005, I took the plunge and trained to become a Group Fitness Instructor, it took a while to build up the confidence to stand in front of a room full of people, but I stepped out of my comfort zone and embraced it. I have never looked back.  I left office work in 2009 after having my son, as I knew health and fitness was my one and only career focus.

 

I am now excited to be helping individuals in achieving whatever their goal maybe, no matter how big or small - anything is possible....
