I have a strong belief that everyone can make small changes to their lifestyle to ensure that they live happier, longer and healthier lives. I am passionate about helping people of all ages and abilities to achieve their health and fitness goals with Pilates and Zumba fitness classes. These provide many physical benefits including a combination of fun, low impact aerobic/toning exercise, improved strength, flexibility, mobility, core strength, pelvic stability, posture, co-ordination and body awareness. However the other fantastic benefits that I love to see and experience for myself are increased self esteem and energy levels as well as general feelings of wellbeing and happiness!

I love running my fitness business and regularly teach 13+ well attended classes a week during mornings and evenings, mostly in village community halls. My classes are multi-level and include diverse age ranges, men and women, beginners through to those with many years of experience.

I am a fully qualified fitness instructor/trainer with more than 18 years' experience in the fitness industry, including teaching, lecturing, assessing & verifying assessments for South Kent Further Education College for almost 10 years between 1995 and 2005. I have been teaching and practicing Pilates for 10 years and have taught and assessed other Pilates teachers for Future Fit Training, for 3 years between 2004 to 2007 and currently since the end of 2009.

I am committed to continual professional development (CPD) and being the best that I can be for the health and wellbeing of my clients/participants and students. I attend regular workshops and fitness conventions and obtain new qualifications in line with industry and my personal and business needs.
