I have always enjoyed exercise whether it was in a class, at the gym and dancing round my living room - I loved the way it made me feel. However, the real turning point for me was when my husband fell down the stairs and fractured his vertebrae.

His GP gave him prescription for sport and also gave one to me so that I could go along and support him and my passion for the fitness industry really grew from there. I loved helping him exercise and having to explain how he needed to position himself. I also recognised how great it was making me feel too, to see that I could help and make a difference was fantastic.

I started off with my Studio Professional Diploma and as soon as I had passed I set up community classes but it wasn't long before I was itching to learn more so I signed up for my Advanced Personal Trainer Diploma and to this day I love to learn.

The fitness industry is unlike any other as it progresses at such a fast rate and you have to make sure you keep up to date with all the latest research and information.

I cannot begin to describe how fantastic it feels to know you have helped someone to achieve and exceed their goals. To watch someon grow as they attend your classes, to watch that transformation and not necessarily just a physical transformation either!

The photo shows me earlier this year doing a charity skydive - the best experience ever!
