I have been teaching exercise for 25 years and thrive on working with my clients
to achieve their health and fitness goals! I live and work in Potters bar,
Hertfordshire and had been teaching exercise and fitness classes at venues in
Potters Bar, Barnet and North London until the recent Covid-19 pandemic
restricted group exercise (amongst so many other things!) In the early days of
"lockdown" I kept in touch with my wonderful clients with regular video blogs
and 5 minute daily exercise challenges. When it became clear that the
restrictions were likely to be in place for many months, I started organising
live streamed classes via Zoom. This new way of exercising remotely has been
hugely popular with my members and has influenced the way I hope to take the
classes forward. I am very aware of the impact on us all during such unsettled
times and I firmly believe in the importance of nurturing both physical and
mental health. Taking time to look after ourselves is more important than ever.
I pride myself on making all of my members feel valued and adapting my style to
meet their needs. Most of all, I believe that exercise should be enjoyable and I
endeavour to bring fun to all of my classes! My Background In 1996 I bought a
Rosemary Conley Diet & Fitness franchise and worked hard to build a successful
group of classes in my local area, which many of my current members attended!
The exercise and nutritional training that I received from Rosemary Conley was
invaluable and has been the foundation for my career in the industry. In 2004, I
launched "Health for Life", my own diet and fitness programme, with classes in
Barnet and Potters Bar and qualified as a Zumba instructor in 2010 to revitalise
the classes. Having discovered the benefits of Pilates, following a significant
back injury, I decided to qualify as a Fitness Pilates teacher. The addition of
Fitness Pilates to the classes I teach has provided my members with an
alternative way to exercise, that focuses on physical and mental health and
wellbeing. As the modern world becomes ever more challenging, the popularity of
Fitness Pilates has grown and is now the basis for the majority of my classes.
In addition, I am qualified to teach exercise to children, and also teach
Exercise for Older Adults at a number of retirement communities in my local
area. As Charles Darwin said, “It is not the strongest of the species that
survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is most
adaptable to change.”
