PERSONAL TRAINING
I started my career as a personal trainer back in 2009 after completing my degree in Human Movement and Health Studies (with a focus on exercise science) at the University of South Australia. Additionally, I also received a Certificate III and IV in Fitness from the Australian Institute of Fitness.
​
Throughout my career I have completed further education and training to expand my skills and knowledge. I am currently registered with AUSactive as a Level 3 Registered Exercise Professional (highest level obtainable in Australia) and have certifications in the following:
​
-

-

I currently specialise in functional strength training, sports specific conditioning, rehabilitation, postural correction, and martial arts training. I have a background of over 12 years experience in martial arts (mainly Taekwondo) where I competed at a state, national and international level. I was also an instructor and coach for junior athletes for several years. I’m currently a registered 3rd Dan Black Belt and my main achievements are listed below.
-
Australian Taekwondo Team representative at the ICTO Championships, Vietnam (2011)
-
Australian Taekwondo Team representative at the British A-Class Open, Manchester (2010)
-
Australian Taekwondo Team representative and international gold medalist at the ICTO Championships, Malaysia (2009)
-

-

-

-

In recent years I’ve also developed a keen interest in cycling, and enjoy working with cyclists of all levels to improve their performance and rehabilitate injuries. I am a late comer to the sport of cycling, having just started racing at the age of 30 in early 2018 . However, coming from a background of elite sport, I progressed quickly and by 2019 I had won my first elite women's road race, and have gone on to race at a national level since then.
TRAINING PROGRAMS
As a personal trainer working in the health and fitness industry for over 14 years now, I understand that not everyone can afford weekly 1-on-1 training, which is why I now provide online training programs.
​
This allows you access to an online customised training program designed by a personal trainer based on your goals, lifestyle, and equipment you have available (at home or gym, etc).
The program allows you access to a training app that includes all details of your workouts (including videos of all exercises) and access to me, your trainer, via instant messaging.
What does it include?
-
A 4-week personalised training program customised to your goals and needs.
-
Access to all workout content via the mobile app.
-
Access to chat with your trainer via the mobile app.
​
What happens after I purchase the program?
-
You will receive a training agreement and consultation form to complete. This will give me an idea of your goals, any injuries/limitations, available equipment, and your overall experience with exercise. The more detail you provide me the more personalised your program becomes.
-
I will design a training program that I believe will best suit your goals and needs.
-
Your program begins the Monday after purchase.
-
You will have unlimited contact with me via the workout app. If there is anything you don't like about your program, or feel is unsuitable, I will make changes for you.
