Absolute Potential Health & Performance

I’m Sissy Taufika and I help health-conscious people like you find your optimal health mojo - so that you can not only do it all, but do it well, and feel empowered and like yourself again (or better!). Because I’m also a mama, I understand that good health needs to fit into the everyday bustle we call family life. The Absolute Potential Health & Performance Approach

We base our practice on seven pillars of health: Thoughts, Breathing, Hydration, Sleeping, Nutrition, Movement and Community. Addressing all areas is essential to achievement of optimal health; whether you’re a new mum wanting to regain your pre-baby body, a parent wanting to give your bubba or teen the optimal start to life or someone who just wants to feel and perform at their best. We believe in empowering through education, active participation, finding balance, fun, and lifelong health, not just temporary fixes.

Our dream is for Absolute Potential Health & Performance to lead the change in improving the health of our children and future generations. "We want to empower parents and parents-to-be to achieve their absolute potential so that they can be the best parents they can be and give their children the best possible start in life. Above all, we want to change the current trajectory of our children’s health for the better, to help them rediscover their true vitality and to create a strong, happy and healthy future generation."

“I believe true freedom is being autonomous, moving well, eating for life and achieving your dreams. So many of us are told we can’t do this or have to do that or should follow this…my own experiences and seeing what so many of my clients go through tells me that this is the very opposite of what a beautiful, healthful life really is. My three main principles are good movement, food for life and that your brain in the master of your domain. Master those areas and you will have an amazing life.”

Sissy works one-on-one with you, in small groups as well as larger workshops and talks. What Absolute Potential is not

We are not a place of passive therapy, of people working ON or FOR you; rather we work with individuals who are motivated to actively participate in making changes towards a more fulfilled, pain-free healthy life. We are not a Cross-fit gym nor do we believe in the ‘no pain no gain’ principle. In most cases, stressed, overworked and over-trained people actually need less time exercising hard and more rest and recovery. We will work with you to find out what you need and what suits your life and body right now. We are not a ‘woo-woo’ spiritual or religiously aligned practice that expects you to sit for hours listening to the sounds of the ocean. We will and do use scientifically proven techniques such as meditation, yoga, breathing and recovery methods to help you perform better and get healthier. But we also know that what suits a 60-hour week business woman will likely be completely different to a 20 year old wheelchair rugby player. We help you find the best technique for you. We don’t hand out cookie-cutter, one-size-fits-all programs. You will not be able to download an exercise or diet program that every Tom, Dick and Harry can access so we can make easy dollars. Each client undergoes a complete physical and life assessment and is provided with an individualized program suited to their physical, mental, emotional, financial and spiritual needs. We do not treat or see multiple clients at once, or leave you in a room alone with a heat pack. Unless you’re participating in a small group class or team building workshop, each session is one-on-one because we believe true service comes from personalised and dedicated attention. Even our group classes are limited to small numbers with every participant assessed individually beforehand and the class modified for each individual’s current issues.
