My name is Sarah and I love living in Tasmania. I am a mum to four children and wife to an amazing man that knows the way to my heart is through my stomach. He’s a true keeper!
After having my forth child and returning to exercise myself, it became obvious to me the lack of specialised and qualified women's fitness trainers. I saw this as an opportunity to help not only mums but women in general to understand their bodies better, feel good about themselves and to safely return to exercise.
I want to help women to feel strong! I want to help women find ways to prioritise their own health + wellbeing.
When you are a mum in particular, you are constantly putting others first (while being sleep deprived - for years)! On outings you ensure that you pack everything from wipes, to food, extra clothing and water bottles for everyone else and then YOU freeze and starve because you are too busy making sure the kids are set! As the kids get older you dutifully plan their after school activities, sport and social lives ..... but does your name make it onto the weekly planner?
Women need to find BALANCE.
We know that regular activity improves our overall health, relationships, decision making, increases energy levels, improves our mood and we sleep better too - but how do we make time for us?
It’s not easy and generally doesn’t come naturally (mother guilt is a terrible thing); but when we do prioritise ourselves, when we are a little selfish and make time for ourselves, then we are a better people - a better mum and a better partner.
The aim is to lock in weekly regular chunks of time for you to exercise and focus on you.
My ultimate goal is to facilitate this need by bringing women together in a safe, inclusive, friendly and supportive environment to laugh, (sometimes cry), learn and be active together.
