I am a personal trainer, a registered mental health nurse, BABCP accredited CBT therapist and pilates teacher with a particular interest and specialism in pregnancy and postnatal health and wellbeing.
REPS Level 3 Personal Trainer. How I see fitness. What I have found useful in my very long fitness journey (since school sports teams and ducking out of sport completely).
Nutrition Advisor. I follow a mainly ‘flexitarian’ diet. I aim to provide basic knowledge and recipes.
Mental health nurse (RMN), Psychology Degree, Psychoanalytic therapeutic training and a qualified DBT therapist. I aim to break down understanding mental illness.
Mum of 2 with 2 very different pregnancies. Horrendous first Pregnancy. I’ve learned along the way while trying to find balance post-natal.
“Things I’ve liked so far that are different is I think for me it’s been a real lesson if that makes sense, learning how to do Excercise properly, the positions, making the most of the movement and also every session you’ve shown us something different which I think helps us as beginners to work out what we enjoy or don’t enjoy.”

“I think you’re really good at giving the right amount of pushing and in a way that feels relatable – like, you’re not ott with energy in an almost fake way – you let us know you’re struggling too. That almost makes me push myself harder. It’s great that you’re a fellow mum as you know how the postpartum body works. I really like having my form checked and told to slow it down or try the “easier” way of doing things first just to make sure I’m doing it right. Even simple things like learning that you can move from plank to downward dog and back again to help re-engage makes a huge difference. I think those are the things that stand out for me.”

“You are relatable.
You get that it is hard being a mum and the challenges it can fester up in your life. Because of that, it’s easy to engage with you on a personal level and you are really good at adapting your sessions to clients personal needs and circumstances.
Your knowledge on fitness and physical/mental health and well- being is brilliant.
Especially, pre and post pregnancy issues. You’re knowledge on how to prepare your body during pregnancy is very good and informative. But most importantly safe! You know what you are on about. The same goes with post pregnancy work out and nutritional guidance. They all interlink with each other. You’re literally the whole package.”

“Ease of attending a class. Because it’s from my home it’s easy to attend, I don’t need to pack a bag/go to a gym/etc. I also like the fact that it’s not an issue if (tiny human) walks in as you and the other attendees are in the same boat so I don’t feel self conscious.”
