Meet KAREN

Certified PERSONAL TRAINER & FITNESS COACH

Achieve a balanced lifestyle, a positive self-image, and feel healthy.

I’ve always had a passion for fitness, and have been active in the industry for 13+ years. Being healthy gives me confidence and empowers me to have a positive outlook on life, particularly during those challenging moments. I love the way exercise makes me feel and strongly believe in the benefits it has for both body and mind.

I feel rewarded knowing my ‘job’ is to encourage, teach and support people to create their best self. This is what moves me and motivates me to keep doing what I do. I get a buzz knowing my clients feel amazing as a result of their workouts.

My approach to training involves teaching a combination of styles because our bodies and minds need constant stimulation and variety to stay motivated and achieve all round fitness. I apply, and you’ll learn different types of cardio, strength and conditioning exercises which will challenge your body and drive change. Change will become habit, and variety, consistency and intensity will transform you.

MY CLIENTS SAY

I can’t thank Karen enough for all that she has done for me! I never thought I could be fit or strong, but Karen has proved me wrong.

I love our weekly sessions and seeing my progress. And I never get bored, because Karen always has a new exercise up her sleeve! Even after nearly 5 years working together!

Karen is incredibly knowledgeable and will develop programs to suit you, whatever stage your at. She worked with me throughout both of my pregnancies and postpartum and has always kept me feeling strong.

Karen is kind, compassionate and absolutely amazing at what she does! I can’t recommend highly enough!

HAYLEY
Karen has been an enormous help for my running. With her ever varying and challenging PT exercises she has really improved my balance and strength.

My injury rate has decreased dramatically since I started training with her well over 5 years ago now. I love running and she’s kept me in the fast lane even though I’m over 50 now!

DR CHRIS
Karen is such a perfect fit for us - she's a great motivator and incredibly knowledgeable about muscle groups, health and great functional exercise.

I trained with her before my breast cancer diagnosis, and she has been a godsend helping me during treatment and working around nerve and muscle injury following radiotherapy. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!
