I’ve always been fascinated by the human form. My journey began in art school, where I spent years drawing and painting life studies and portraits. That passion for detail led me to a career as a professional artist — even having the honour of painting HRH King Charles in the 90s.

When I became a mum to two wonderful daughters, my priorities shifted. Like many women, I gained weight during pregnancy — a lot of it — and had to find my way back. That experience changed everything. Fitness stopped being a hobby and became a way of life.

I retrained as a personal trainer because I realised this knowledge could do more than transform me — it could help other women who felt just like I did. Since then, I’ve been guiding women through every stage of life, helping them find strength, confidence, and balance through realistic, sustainable methods.

Now in my 50s, I use resistance training, smart nutrition, and habit-building strategies not just to stay fit and healthy myself, but to help other women feel in control of their bodies again. My background in art still influences the way I coach — I notice details, I see shape, I understand how small changes create a bigger picture.

I’ve been supporting women in Bournemouth and online since 2019, and every client reminds me why I started. Change is possible at any age, and it’s my mission to make that journey simpler, kinder, and more effective for you.

So if you’re ready to feel stronger, more energised, and more like yourself again — I’m here to help you get started.
