Mindful Motion - Personal Fitness with Shu Ting

01/01/2026

Flying right into 2026! The past year has been a challenging one to navigate for myself and many of those around me, but I'm grateful for the lessons.

Here's hoping that we'll all find the right balance for ourselves in the new year ahead! 😉😉😉

Found this picture whilst digging through memories from this space as we finish our final sessions this week on Circular Road. I've been part of the team since late 2023. In this studio space, I have made many friends, evolved my movement practice and learnt more ways to support my clients. We're in transition for the next couple of weeks before we move into our new space along Cantonment Road. Looking forward to new adventures and connections in one of my favourite neighborhoods!!!

Trainers, teachers and instructors need to have their own teachers and mentors as well. The learning journey never stops and it really helps to have the right support in order to challenge boundaries and to step out of my comfort zone. Grateful for the years of mentorship, wisdom and friendship , empowering me to do what I do for my clients both inside and outside the gym.

(p.s. Yes I'm still terrified of inversions and that's ok.)

So this is 40. It is truly bittersweet to celebrate this milestone at this time, but I will nonetheless do so. It is a privilege to be able to get a little older each year, and I do not take it for granted. Sending love to everyone who has touched my life in some way in these 40 years. I will cherish and celebrate the joys in each moment while accepting and integrating the endings and the losses.

I'm delighted to share that I have joined as coach and will be working in this gorgeous space with an innovative team behind it.

Much love to my awesome boss Bronwen who first inspired me to become a personal trainer. We now have come a full circle to finally be working together in the same space!

Here's to more juggling and balancing between work and fun, and having lots of laughs together whilst at it.

As we are reaching the end of 2023, I'd like to share one of the many things I am immensely grateful for this year.... My wonderful clients - Laura and Steve Yates. I started working with both of them in April 2023 with a view of their epic year-end adventure in Peru. Here's a lovely testimonial from Laura about her experience, along with some really cute photos from their trip!

"Over the past year, Shu Ting has been a pillar of strength and motivation for me in our private training sessions. She constantly adjusted and tweaked my training schedule depending on what old injuries came up, and was even flexible with my intensity depending on my menstrual cycle – which I found so helpful and necessary in a peri-menopause body!

I started the year with a lot of weakness in my lowerback and legs, including a sciatica injury and knee injury. However, through Shu Ting’s gentle but strong sessions, of rehabilitation techniques and strength training, I was able to fulfil my dream of doing a 6 day hike in the Peruvian Andes, pretty much pain free and as strong as ever.

This is all thanks to Shu Ting’s patience, gentle yet firm way of bringing in discipline and routine. She has the perfect balance of being supportive, professional, experienced, warm, friendly and nurturing all at the same time.

If you are struggling with injuries, motivation, and even hormonal changes in your body, I highly recommend Shu Ting as a personal trainer in supporting you with lifestyle changes and reconnecting back to your body!"

Today, I'm marking the end of my chapter of over 2 years as a coach at Strength Avenue. Here's to all the friends I have made in this wonderful community, including my clients who have worked-out so hard with me in this space.

Special thanks to and for your kind mentorship and support throughout my tenure! I will always treasure our friendships and the very special and inclusive community you all have created here! ❤️❤️❤️

Thanks Laura for the shout-out!!! It's an absolute pleasure working with you! Love you!!! 💗

💜latest newsletter is out and I have listed a number of amazing practitioners that have been helping me in some deep spiritual work that has manifested physically in my body💜

❤️The wisdom of the body is alway so profound.
❤️Over the past few months I have in training physically, mentally and spiritually for our upcoming adventure to Peru.
❤️The interesting thing is that I have had old injuries flare up, my sciatica and my knee. Knowing that is is not just a physical weakness, I have delved deep into the emotional and spiritual messages that my body is trying to tell me. The body is so wise!

❤️Through my own somatic healing: My own TRE sessions, dance and my own meditation journeys to the source of the pain, and with the help of other healers and practitioners.
I have gained an understanding of past life trauma that is manifesting in this physical form, the sabotage and protection that my body is bringing up, and long held defence mechanisms that are being triggered.

❤️I am now starting to feel ready for my upcoming spiritual journey to the Andes.

❤️I have had a number of practitioners assist me in this, and so I wanted to give them a shout out and refer them, should they resonate with you.

They are listed in my newsletter, but tagging them here too.

A long covid cough since Oct 2022 landed me in hospital last weekend with a slipped disc.

How it happened? Well, I was sedantary and laying sideways on a couch for too long watching baseball one morning, I coughed as I got up, and experienced an immediate sharp pain in my hip.

The MRI showed an L5S1 slipped disc. Thankfully mild, so I was given painkillers and sent to rehab. More importantly, I finally got diagnosed with sinusitis and asthmatic cough (triggered by covid) and received aggressive treatment for both.

Big thanks to everyone for your concern and well wishes! I already got cleared by the hospital physio for yoga and climbing, and will resume working with my clients starting tomorrow!!!

The whole experience was a fortunate one and got me to really take time out to rest and to heal. My learning process continues as I rehab my back.

I always tell my clients to listen to their bodies and here I am still learning to listen to mine. 😌😌😌
