Health and Fitness has been a part of my life from almost the day I was born! I was born into Horses as my mum is Horse crazy and I ended up having my own pony when I was just 4 or 5 years old. I competed on my horses all over Sydney in Eventing up until the age of 21 when i had a nasty fall which almost ended my riding career.
For almost 12 months I had very limited use of my right arm and was seeing physio therapist after physio therapist and eventually my own injury ended up guiding me onto the path of working within the health and fitness!
I was so fascinated by how the body works and watching how the body works in repairing and healing itself that I ended up pursuing my own career in the health industry.
In March 2004 I attended the Australian Institute of Fitness and undertaking the Fitness essentials and Personal Trainer qualifications.
As soon as I was qualified I began working in a women’ only gym on Sydney’s Northern Beaches where I was to take women through a basic gym induction.
Since then I have worked at Virgin Active in London as a fitness professional and have been to many specialist training courses such as Core Training, Swiss ball training, Bosu Training, Spinning Training, Resistance Training and circuit training.
Now I have moved onto working in a corporate facility as a gym supervisor/ personal trainer where I have been for the last three years. I have also become a qualified Spinning instructor and I freelance out to various gyms teaching the class of up the 32 participants!
Since moving to London I have rediscovered a passion for running from when I was a little girl and have completed three full marathons, numerous half marathons, 10k's and 5k’s. Even managing to win the Land Aid 5km fun run in Battersea park two years in a row!
I have learnt a wealth of information about nutrition and training over the last four years whilst working among some top personal trainers and health specialists throughout the various gyms.
