My story

Training that leaves you feeling better

I became a trainer because I love seeing people feel stronger and more confident in themselves. I know how overwhelming it can be — not knowing where to start, feeling out of place in the gym, or putting in the effort without seeing results. That's exactly why I do this.

I don't copy and paste programmes. I take the time to understand you — your body, your goals, your life — and build something that actually works for you. My aim is simple: lasting results, not quick fixes, and a client who feels capable long after the session ends.

The approach

Personal, patient and built around you

Programmes made for you

No templates. Your training is built around your body, goals and lifestyle.

Accountability that sticks

Check-ins, progress tracking and support so you always know what to do next.

Confidence over perfection

Consistency beats intensity. We build habits that hold, not pressure that burns out.

Support beyond sessions

Individualised programmes to follow independently, so progress never stops between sessions.

Real results

Small wins that build into lasting change

Questions answered

How much does it cost?

Sessions are $60 each (45–60 min). Book two or more sessions per week and it drops to $55 per session. Your first consultation is free.

What does a typical week look like?

Alongside 1:1 sessions, you'll have an individualised programme to follow independently. Depending on your goals, we may include check-ins, progress tracking and food logs.

How quickly will I see results?

Most clients notice real changes within 4–6 weeks — feeling stronger and fitter before visible changes appear. Those early wins matter. Consistency is what builds lasting results.

How do I book a session?

I work with a small number of clients at a time, so availability is limited. Fill in the enquiry form below and I'll be in touch to arrange your free first consultation.
