I chose to become a Wellbeing Personal Trainer here at Nuffield Health because of my focus upon high-level training whilst encouraging healthy, sustainable training and lifestyle choices and my belief that this is not emphasised enough within Gym culture. I specialise in aesthetic movement, posture, body sculpting, weight gain, weight loss, agility, functional movement and mobility as well as performance biased strength and conditioning and injury rehabilitation.  I have been a qualified personal trainer and sports rehabilitation massage therapist since 2004.

I am married with two kids, and I am a former professional contemporary/ballet dancer and senior university lecturer… In fact, I was a Founding Lecturer on the dance undergraduate degree at Kingston University and taught there, full-time, for more than a decade. Being in my mid-40’s now, I am increasingly aware of all the physical changes that time brings with it, and how to adapt physical training and lifestyles accordingly. 

I also have a background in martial arts and have trained under Master Huang Ping in Modern Wushu and Taijiquan (Tai Chi). I was a Taijiquan Jian (straight sword) gold medallist at SENI in 2008.

I'd love to hear from you and have a chat about how I might be able to help you with any training goals that you might have, especially if you have an interest in the type of training I do. 

I am also a fan of general natters - especially if it involves hot coffee.

• Level 3 Personal Trainer

I have been involved in the Fitness Industry for the past 13 years. After several years of being sat at a desk for work I noticed that my body was beginning to tighten up and as a result I experienced pain and reduced mobility.

I was forced to find a solution, which led me to the functional training and rehab I focus on today. I focus on the fundamentals of movement that we as humans naturally exhibit. I use a number of techniques to create muscle balance in the body, all of which reduce pain and create more efficient movement.

I aim to educate my clients on all aspects of health, fitness, nutrition and overall wellbeing. The goal is for my clients to have the tools to live a healthy and happy life.
