supporting women to take charge of their well-being

supporting women to take charge of their
well-being

Working with someone like me is an investment in your body, mind and general health. Women need strength training for many reasons – to help in everyday life, increase metabolism, manage peri-menopause and menopause, prevent injury… and many more.

I started swimming competitively at a young age which started my passion for sport. This passion took me on a journey of working in the sports industry as well as an academic career in Biology, and a degree in Sport and Exercise Science.

I trained as a triathlete around full time shift work, I returned to successful racing and participation after having two children and continue to train around a busy job and family life. It is this experience that makes my knowledge and understanding so invaluable as a coach.

So many of my clients don’t feel confident going to a gym – either due to lack of confidence or lack of knowledge about what to do when they get there.

The main focus in everything I do is to offer help, support and guidance with my clients overall training to help them achieve their goals. We do it together.

THE STUDIO

It was a very proud moment opening my very own studio at my home in Tadcaster (near Leeds & York). It’s small & private, a space dedicated to you and your workout.

We have a full range of gym equipment which includes: Olympic Lifting weights, rack and bench, plyometric box, kettlebells, gymnastic rings, medicine balls, resistance bangs and yoga equipment.

YOGA

I began my yoga journey because it offered something completely different from the fast-paced, high-energy world of endurance and strength training that I’ve lived and taught for years. Yoga gave me permission to slow down—and I quickly realised how essential that is, especially for women navigating the changes that come with life beyond 35.

As my focus has evolved to supporting women in this stage of life, I’ve come to deeply understand the importance of calming the nervous system, restoring energy, and reconnecting with ourselves. That’s why I’ve chosen to teach slower, more grounding styles of yoga—slow flow, yin, and restorative yoga. These practices offer a powerful counterbalance to the stress and busyness of modern life, creating space for healing, strength from stillness, and a deeper sense of clarity.
