A little about me
Welcome to Kinetic Coaching & Nutrition!
I am a Lower Back Pain Exercise Specialist, Personal Trainer, Nutrition and Weight management coach based in my own private, female-only gym and online.
All too often I see women struggle with their body image, weight and mindset; and this often leads to trying multiple fads and crazes looking for the quick fix or magic solution that promises extreme results in a short period of time. Now those results may come, but they will also go.
My passion of helping women grow in confidence as we develop a balanced lifestyle of consistency in training & enjoying every day without feeling restricted is the backbone behind my coaching programmes.
Helping you build a healthier lifestyle where you feel able to enjoy treats guilt-free, develop a positive relationship with food & a love for the physical and mental benefits of exercise is what my business is all about.
Over the years I have built up a collection of skills, experiences and resources to help you fit positive habits and routines into your lifestyle - no matter how busy you are.
I am continually learning and developing my own coaching skills to ensure I make the process as simple and enjoyable as possible for you.

Whether you work with me online or face to face, we will set goals together and create lasting habits for positive, long term lifestyle changes on the path to achieving them.

Nutrition habits
How will you track my progress?
How will you hold me accountable?
Multiple methods within my coaching app including check ins, workout trackers, nutrition trackers and conversations we have together.
We’ll set SMART goals which we will regularly review. Check ins, workout trackers, honest feedback and discussions, achievable targets that grow with you.
What’s your training/coaching style?
Predominantly weight lifting from an exercise perspective, with realistic step / cycle targets depending on your preferences. I have a strong focus on behaviour and mindset change to ensure we build results that are sustainable - there will be no shreds or harsh restrictive dieting / excessive cardio.
I focus on helping you build rock solid foundations then adaptable layers to suit your schedule / priorities.
Do you offer nutritional advice?
Yes. I’m a nutrition coach so I help you navigate the macronutrients and micronutrients in a way that suits you. Nothing is off limits, we can apply moderation to balance out the whole and soul foods.
What types of exercise will I be doing?
My training focus is to help you realise how strong you are and exceed the limits you subconsciously set for yourself. This can be achieved in a gym, at home, with machines or dumbbells, and / or bodyweight.
My 1:1 clients have tailored programmes to suit their preferences and equipment availability, group clients have a variety of workouts to choose from.
How many sessions a week will I be expected to do?
This is individual and depends on your goals, time availability and coaching plan.
For example:
A 1:1 mobility client may need to do some form of stretching or mobility session daily around their strength workouts.
A woman looking to get stronger and fitter in general could need to do either 1-3 longer sessions or 6-7 shorter sessions.
How much do you cost?
I offer a variety of plans to suit all budgets - you can find out more here
How long will it take me to achieve my goals?
What are your goals? How determined are you to achieve them? How much time can you dedicate to your progress? What is your budget?
All of these factors and more will determine the answer. Plus, achieving goals is addictive, we may set more!
What will I need before I get started with any of your programs?
Generally speaking - for online clients you will need either a gym membership or some equipment at home, internet access and a smartwatch is ideal but not essential. We will always have a chat before you start to make sure we get you on the right plan for you and that you have everything you need.
