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.
