Thankfully my love for the outdoors remained intact, and I took up running. Running became a daily ritual, giving me the opportunity to take time out, reconnect with my thoughts and do something good for my body.

At around the same time I also discovered Iyengar yoga and embraced the calm and focus it created. Iyengar also sparked my fascination with human movement and form. I learned to make fine adjustments to my body's movements to improve balance, composure, flexibility and strength. This newfound level of body awareness was a total revelation; it enabled me to push my own physical limits while remaining injury free, and continues to shape the way I train both myself and my clients today.

As my passion for exercise grew and I regained some self-confidence, I trained to become a personal trainer. Simultaneously, I transitioned from an all-out cardio bunny to an avid lifter of weights. The satisfaction and empowerment that came with feeling myself getting stronger was invaluable, and I’ve since become a big advocate for female strength training.​

My journey has shaped me and the approach I use working with my clients today. Now with more than 10 years of coaching experience under my belt, I look forward to sharing some of the things I've learned about movement, form and body awareness with you - as well as impart my enthusiasm for strength training, nutrition and fitness in general - to inspire and support you as you work towards your own health goals.
