Hello and welcome to a new week!

I am fresh off the plane returning from a wonderful week on the Gold Coast. I am back in Melbourne feeling fresh and strong and ready to unleash some challenging workouts on all of YOU!

A huge thank you to Trina, Sassy Fit Gold Coast (pictured below) and Jaime, Func Fit Gold Coast (pictured above) you both gave me an absolute mega workout and I will definitely be back for more of what I call the ‘good’ pain!! Loved it and ...

Good morning healthy people!!

I am bouncing off the walls this morning after hearing the news last night that I have been nominated for the TELSTRA BUSINESS WOMEN'S AWARD!!

Hello healthy people!!

I hope you have all been moving every day! Even a five minute walk up the stairs rather than taking the lift perhaps??

So, I bet after reading the title of this week's blog you are already having a little sing a long in your head to the 70's classic 'Disco Inferno'.... I love it and it inspired me to create this week's workout based on a fun combination of exercises, using just a set of Dumbbells.... if you don't have weights accessible to you, grab a couple of cans of Baked Beans...they will do the trick!!...or do it without weights if that suits you!

Be sure to warm up for at least four to five minutes with some high knees running on the spot and dynamic stretches such ...

Hello healthy people!!

I hope you are all enjoying your #getmoving workouts and enjoying them anytime, anywhere....whether it be on your lunch hour, at home or in the park with the kids! The workouts should be challenging, yet fun and accessible for everyone

I thought it might be a great idea to run a little test this week to give you all a base measurement of your fitness so that we can re visit in four weeks time and see how we are all tracking!

Don't be daunted by the word 'test'....I have been running this workout with my clients this week and the look on their face when I mention 'Fitness Test' has been priceless!!

As always I will be posting a short demo video on my Instagram and Facebook ...

Hello fit and healthy people!!

After a week off due to surgery last week I figured it was time to step it up a little!! This week, we are going to HIT THE WEIGHTS!!

This is wonderful group of motivated people, minus any negativity, advertising etc. put simply, just a group of AWESOME people supporting each other in good health no matter what their individual fitness ...

Hello to all of my fellow fit and healthy people!!....the title of this workout could be misleading, NO we're not having a holiday or honeymoon from our fitness routine, rather we are going to get the heart rate up and #getmoving !!

This week I have two of my lovely clients heading off on their honeymoons...it got me thinking, honeymoons are all about love, health and happiness, so why not put together a workout to get that heart pumping!!...this could even be done in a hotel room whilst on your honeymoon!! (take note clients who have inspired this workout, I am being serious)



Before I get into the instructions for this ...

So you must be thinking, why all this talk about Scones in a blog that is based on health & fitness??? And if you are thinking that you get to eat Scones as part of this week's workout....you may be wrong!

Welcome to your latest #getmoving workout, titled:

| SCONES | JAM | CREAM | WORKOUT

This week, not long after training one of my clients at South Yarra, I noticed her Facebook status had revealed she had just baked a fresh batch of scones (cheeky)....and it got me thinking, fitness should be fun and if you exercise, you should be able to enjoy a treat now and then. I felt inspired by this way of thinking ...

Who doesn't love rocking along to a little Dolly Parton track at home or in the car??

Well, put simply, that was exactly where the inspiration came to me for this week's #getmoving workout!! Announcing my fun creation for the week, "THE NINE TO FIVE WORKOUT!" Designed to get you all moving!

This one is not only best done whilst listening to the popular 80's tune 'Nine to Five' it also has a play on the number of times you repeat each exercise based on the numbers 9 through to 5!! Yes, I know, it sounded fun until I mentioned that!!

You can do this at home, or anywhere really and no gym or equipment needed!....just ...

Hi everyone!

I hope you have all had a wonderful week and have been active every day!!

Who attempted my #getmoving "Easter Workout" last week? I hear for those of you that did it, there were a few achy bodies getting around town....in a good way of course!! This makes me smile

This week I have been floating around Melbourne encouraging local corporates to #getmoving for at least thirty minutes of their lunch hour in an attempt to boost energy levels and promote productivity in the workplace and to combat what we traditionally know as "three thirty-itis"

I am here to prove to you all that this tiresome ...

What better time to introduce you to my latest #getmoving digital media campaign! Let's get started NOW!....regular, free workouts coming your way each week via The Times

The #getmoving campaign uses digital platforms to provide quick and effective workouts that can be done ANYWHERE!...It may be for the corporate traveler in a hotel suite, or for a mum who wishes to sneak a workout in whilst baby sleeps.....we can't all get to the gym, nor pay horrendous membership fees, and we don't all necessarily feel comfortable in a gym culture which is now crowded with 'teenagers' working as Personal Trainers, often caught flexing their muscles ...
