I was born in Edinburgh and live here with my husband and I have a grown up family.   I qualified as a Fitness and Exercise teacher in January 1991.   In those 20 years, I've taught in fitness gyms, universities, offices and now, mostly teach in the community.   I gained a Fitness Pilates qualification in 2005 and qualified and became a Freestyle Fitness Yoga Instructor in September '06.  In 2010, I became a  Level 3 Pilates Instructor.

As a Fitness Professional, I regularly attend workshops and courses and in doing so, I  keep myself up to date with the latest exercises, research, ideas and new information so that I can then deliver these to you. 

In May 2011, I passed my exams and became qualified to teach Level 3 Nutrition and Weight Management.  This enables me to give nutrition and weight management advice to participants/clients and small weight loss and lifestyle groups in the community and offices.

I enjoy teaching a variety of different styles of fitness classes ie Fitness Pilates,  Metabolic Fat Burning & Strength Workouts, Cardio Aerobic Workouts, Fitness Salsa, Circuit Training style Bootcamps and Resistance Band and hand held weights Body Conditioning workouts.  In offering a wide variety of choices and pathways to fitness, each style and class is complimentary to your fitness regime.  My intention is that everyone can find a style of class that appeals to them as a means of improving their health and fitness.  I enjoy teaching all my classes and the challenge of making up new choreography and seeing class participants become fitter, stronger and more flexible.  Teaching in community keeps the classes fun, friendly and sociable.
